Ragnarok.Holyman said: Imo the first game was perfect , yes the story wasn't as complicated & deep as FFX , but gameplay wise ; cutscenes ; graphics & battle system was superb . I don't care how linear it was , the story was good enough to justify it , looking forward this sequel. hope they release versus XIII this year too. i agree. Many of the FF games had such indepth or long *** side quests/missions, their were tiems you forgot what you were supposed to be doing anyway lol. So i had hoped for a extremly linear game jsut to see what it would be like. As did many others. FF13 gave us that experence and answer. Weather you liked it or not is a personal choise, but we all know now what its like. from an audio/videophile perspective the ps3 will always win but you are right there are occasional frame rate dips.
I liked 13 but the story was extremely linear. The battle system was amazing and the story was one of the best yet. The story is what made this extremely linear game very very playable. ill play 13-2 and since i have no idea wtf SE is thinking these days, im just going to sit back and wait and give up speculating. its useless Valefor.Saiji said: from an audio/videophile perspective the ps3 will always win but you are right there are occasional frame rate dips.

The gameplay.. i felt like I was in a decorated hallway the whole game. After 30 hours, i traded it in to gamestop... it was literally 3 days after the game came out... Gamestop already had like 10 used copies turned back in.

Most of the extra stuff was all endgame. But of course, give a game 30min of playtime and you'll never find that out.

Shouldn't have to play a game for 30 hours before it starts to get interesting. Hell, I didn't even make it 2 hours before I turned it off for good.

The tutorials actually go up to i think it was chapter 7 or 8 where you get to use sentenals for the first time baring the 30min where you have snow after getting classes and the shiva fight.

Shouldn't have to play a game for 30 hours before it starts to get interesting. Hell, I didn't even make it 2 hours before I turned it off for good. I tried, I really did. But damn, I wanted to punch almost every character, and the dialogue was like nails on a chalk board. "Heroes don't need a plan!" Neither does SE, apparently. I will say my wife picked it up and at least got further than I did before she gave up on it. She got about 4 or 5 hours in before saying "screw this."

But those are also the shortest chapers in the game also. Best way to put it. Xbox disc 1 = tutorial 2/3 = game stuffs.

Ramuh.Urial said: Since spoken dialogues were actually put into CS....when was the last time SE actually had good conversations. Maybe it just shows my age, and maybe the game wasn't aimed at my demographic, since I started playing FF games with the very first one on the NES during summer of '91. I followed the series all the way up to FF VII, at which point it really lost me. I adored every titled up to that point though. I've run through FF IV and VI at least 10 times each. The dialogues in the early titles were a lot more less cheesy(though chock full of bad translastions and broken engrish).

Quote: bahhh the opening credits are too long and boring, *** this movie! Haha, I see your point, but if a movie was still boring 2 hours in then yeah, I wouldn't finish it. For the record, I've played video game RPGs for over 20 years. Ultima Exodus on NES was more ineresting than FFXIII, it certainly gave the player more choices.

Ultima Exodus on NES was more ineresting than FFXIII, it certainly gave the player more choices. i thought there was a pretty decent amount of choices. eye of the beholder...etc i love the classics, and i get what you're saying about this game...but is it really any more boring than the current standard nowadays? RPG's are changing I'd say as technology advances the deves have this lust to do new and more adventurous things than click attack or summon etc.
C'mon, characters had charisma at least , how many female characters in FF had strong personality/careless like Lightning ?
I can count 1 or 2 , & overall the chemistry between characters was so good , even Hope (who I hated at first glance) turned to develop with the story , all characters well-evolved , you can't hate any ! regardless how cheesy the conversation were at some points , characters were that good to the degree I didn't care , also lolNA version ;/ , play JP version if you understand , much better dialogs .

Ramuh.Urial said: RPG's are changing I'd say as technology advances the deves have this lust to do new and more adventurous things than click attack or summon etc. But that's all it felt like you could do in FFXIII, ironically. You had no control over the outcome of the story, choices your character makes, nothing. Click 2 buttons and watch a 30 minute cut scene. I did read that SE tried to do something different this time around, since western RPG were kicking their butts(Mass Effect, Fallout 3, Oblivion, etc). I just didn't think they were going to take the one great thing all those games have in common and toss it(choices that mattered, different paths, etc). I apologize if my tone is overly aggressive. If someone genuinely enjoyed the game, then my hat's off to you. Yes, my standards were pretty high; It's FINAL FANTASY, I was expecting quite a bit. That being said, I'll give XIII-2 a try. Maybe it'll be different. But if it's anotehr round of 3/4 of the game being a tutorial or just hit "auto-battle", then I'm going to pass.

Also it seems as though since 7ish the dialogues in ff were meh at best. the story and the over all depth of the game isnt damaged... just a little hard on the ears at time.
