So I heard that they're selling single battles as "DLC," which just sounds ridiculous to me (though unfortunately other developers have been even greedier).

I don't have the game, but I was wondering how much they're charging for the DLC and how you guys feel about it. If you bought it, was it worth the money?

Is it better to finish the story first and go back, or try to get everything before going back to each place?

I just did the story part of Academia 400, I have about 41 fragments

I just kinda did what I had the patience for then fought the final boss. I have to get one more bomb mob called Cloudburst before I'm 160/160, but really it's up to you. But you do have to beat the game to get some of the paradox endings.

2.99. The fights are worth it. I don't like the look of Noel's DLC outfit tbh. :/

Gold star to whoever tells me where Cloudburst pops! The guides say Archylte Steppe ??? in the South-East part under Cloudy weather. So far only running into non-bombs and Debris bombs.

EDIT:


Shoulda just done this sooner. Guides are dumb. Only say "southern/southeast part of the map!" Not even the whole "down in the ridge ONLY" bit. -.-

Ah I see, I didn't know you got them as characters too (Lightning reduced to DLC? That's kinda weird).

Still not a big fan of the decision to sell it even if it's only $3, I'm sure the models and other assets are already on the disc. However it's sure as hell more reasonable than $25 mounts and stuff that's been pulled off in other games....

DLC is always going to cost money. best part about it is you dont have to buy it.

also just because they make DLC doesnt mean that the dlc should have came with the game. no one complains about sequels and how the sequel should of been a part of the first game =/

The difference is that the DLC came out within literally a week of release.
This is not OK.

sure it is. the game wasnt "Finished" a week ago you know. the developers still had a lot of time after they finished the game to make new ***.

Well the problem is that the majority of the time the DLC was already on the disc and just needs to be unlocked. So you're basically paying for something that you already bought.

I'm actually OK with endgame being DLC content, as long as the game is big enough to justify it.

Because let's be real. Most people play the game and beat the story and that is that. Most people don't level up their characters past that and do the endgame stuff.

But 3 dollars for one fight is a little silly. I was expecting at least a couple for 3 bucks.

Companies have gotten wise and started making them downloads instead of key unlocks, because people whine like crazy when it's already on the disc.

But from a development standpoint, it makes sense to make the DLC while the game is being made.

It's expensive to keep people on staff just working on DLC. Not to mention to horrible, long and expensive process of getting stuff certified to sell on XBL and PSN.

i believe it is two fights. or at least a fight between two new characters... that you get to use in your party afterwards. so 3 dollars for a fun fight and new characters is a steal. especially since mortal kombat was selling 1 character for 5 bucks.

Paying money for such an insignificant amount of content is stupid. Do I need to remind you how much content you get for ~$10 worth of DLC on most other games? The ratio of content:price is simply wrong.

They've already said they're going to add numerous DLC to the game some of which will complete the story yes.

She can be added as a party memeber but only as a RAV. Still, a *** boss RAV at that.

Is what I think I use without turning on my xbox and checking, you can vary it if there are other things you don't want of course.

You have to defeat her first in a fight and get her crystal; just like monsters you can tame. The Fragment skill which increases Crystal drop rates + Feral Link kill + having FFXIII save file before starting the game increase the odds of getting a crystal from a tameable monster. And I'm pretty sure you can get multiple Lightning Crystals should you want to try multiple builds to see which one works best for you.

Thanks~ Oh, and what crystals did you use? Just Potent? Figured that'd be best for a RAV

I used only potent since I didn't want to farm any others, the crystals you use are obviously your decision but with this build she ends up with roughly 1000 Strength/Magic and 8000 HP with potent materials.
Also I edited my post a little because I remembered a more efficient way of getting Siphon Boost II as opposed to leveling Chunerpton.

where was this confirmed? All ive seen was confirmation of "branches" to the story. Nothing about completing it.

Just 100%'d the game and got my secret ending. this was my post on Gamefaq on how I feel about the ending:

The DLC fights are more for adding the characters to your team - the fight against those two are a joke if you have a couple jobs to 99.

Final fantasy CC for psp and X for ps2 didnt have a magical happy ending.

I was pretty pissy about CC, mostly cuz I never played 7 so I didnt expect the end to be what it was.

CC was also a "Prequel" to ff7. so it was a continued story in a sense. the lore was already there in 7 they just explained it better in CC.

and i liked Xs ending. it wasnt a perfect happy ending but it was still happy lol. just a lil sad for yuna.

Ya 7 are the type of graphics that i cant go back to . all the others are fine. because they werent trying to be 3d. but 7 looks like ***to me now and i cant look at it without vomiting.

but back when i played it the graphics were awesome.

Edit: but i can go back to iX and X no problem.
