Final Fantasy XIII-2
Aaaaaaaaaaaaand clean-up time.
Got delivered 2 days ago and im now off work for 7 days, time to stock up on munch and coffee! Cant use DLC bonuses until 3rd though... sucks.
Mines in the mail.. I really enjoyed FFXIII and I now have a nice big HDTV I can't wait to get it.. My only worry is from what I know, they've changed things up a bit, and I'm worried now I won't like it as much.. I am not a FF fan.. I didn't (actually) play FF7 until AFTER I had already reached level 75 (max at the time) in FFXI, I only started playing FFXI because a friend wanted me to play with him, and kept pushing me into it.. I was actually just content with MMOFPS and Single player action games.. I didn't 'like' FFXIII because I'm a FF fan, I liked it simply because I liked the story (don't start firing off other games, it won't work, trust me.) but more so I liked the game play. I want XIII-2 more so as an 'expansion' and 'new stuff to go do' than to actually learn the story (although it's not exactly a bad point.)
I did play VII when it was first out, the friend who got me into XI, has been a long term fan of the FF series, I played parts and watched him play the whole game of VII more or less, but I never did it myself until many, many years later. I just never got it or was interested.. 7 was the first i played, and it kind of got me hooked on RPGs in a sense, i loved 8 also but then i thought they went down hill until 12, i really could not get into 10 as much as the others. Even though 13 felt a little linear at the start once it opened up and you could access the hunts etc i loved it, played through it 5 times to get my platinum trophy for ps3 lol.
Cerberus.Thongypoo said: » Well I'm sure plenty of people will disagree with me but since the release of playstation I thought the best game they came out with was 12. I can replay that game 1 ot 2 times a year and have a great time. 13 had no creativity and very little end game content. Yay I can farm turtle for platinum ingots to get relics woohoo. I don't know why but I will still buy 13-2 so I guess I'm feeding the beast. Man those relics were a lot of work. In a lot of RPGS, the "endgame" was one boss that dropped some stupid powerful sword that you didn't need because it just dropped off the hardest enemy in the game. Not so in FF12. In FF12 you had better get to grinding those relics because you are going to need them against the nastiest NMs, err marks in the game. FF12 had a true endgame, unlike 99% of RPGs. You could beat the game at level 35ish easily, but even the middle tier marks were level 50ish. I would give FF12 a 9.9. I would give it a perfect 10 if it wasn't for having to stand around while you put away your weapons. ARGGGGGGGGGGGG! Oh and 13-2 is a lot more enjoyable for me than 13. I've only played the demo, but I played it twice. I also had about 2.5 hours clocked in just on the demo. I'm going to be picking this up, but not anytime soon. Gonna wait for a price drop on this one. I just beat the main story game...

And jesus, is the game really that short to be beaten in a day or two? Bahamut.Mizuharu said: » I just beat the main story game... What the *** Sqenix... What the *** kind of ending is that..? ... Seriously. What the ***. ... Maybe after I get the 100% complete and see all the endings it'll be fine. Or they release a downloadable add-on for it... Did you get this like a week early and 24/7 it until now? im 10 hours in and hardly scratched the surface.

And Noel/Serah's roles are all 60; Noel's COM is 81 and Serah's Ravenger is 82. :x oops, double post. Sorry! I got it on release date from amazon, I am really enjoying it. they sure as hell flipped the linearity to the other side of the spectrum, hell you can even beat the game without seeing half the content, its just your choice. definitely a lot of great improvements though, i like that you don't lose if your main character dies (and you can switch control of characters.)
like pretty much any sequel type game released by SE it has a ton of gimicky stuff, but i think its all really fun. and while the story isn't as deep as XIII was, since it has so much control, its still pretty interesting (im not all that far into it though, been doing all the side quests and such.) Caius is a well made villain i think, though... a rather obvious copy of kain from IV >.> hell he even has the same VA in the english version XD but I'm not complaining since Kain was a great character

Wild Artifact Locations
Paradox Guide Not sure if these have been posted in previous posts, but hope this provides some help to anyone seeking it. I love it. Lots of improvements on the last, and monsters make the battles much more fun.
Anyone know where to find the Gold Chocobo? I found the silver one already :x
Damn y'all sound far. I want a chocobo on my team :(

If u rush through the game it can be done in about 20 hrs but that really defeats the purpose of the changes. |
