Thread: Final Fantasy XIII-2

  1. Fine, I'll listen to it.

    [edit]: What's the big deal. It's a playful interpretation of a silly song. If I'd heard it first in-game, I'd have been surprised and smiled.

  2. if it wasn't for the lyrics it'd just be obnoxious!

    Okay, i cancelled my pre-order and ordered a bunch of people presents instead.
    reason: there is an awful song in it and i don't want to support things like that.
    Donk

  3. there are other chocobo themes in the game that sound okay

  4. I got this a couple days ago (X360 version), and it's great fun. I've played about 10 hours thus far. I liked the first game, though. Wouldn't recommend this if you didn't like XIII.

  5. Tried the demo and it does a wonderful job of showing how convoluted and terrible this game is.

    It's feature overload in this thing - over-complication for the sake of (much like its visual design). All the aforementioned systems in XIII are back, but now it looks like you only have two people in the party ever, plus a monster-system (with its own leveling systems, special attacks, and functionality to memorize), plus a time-jumping system, plus side-questing from the get-go...

    All of this would sound great if they weren't all introduced and implemented in such a disjointed way. It's like they took JRPG design of the 90s (in terms of needing a "system" for everything) and ballooned it to absurdity. While, in most cases, all this complication doesn't really mean much for actual player interaction. It's still a matter of hitting Auto-Battle (because it's the most efficient), tapping X when your pokemon has his Super Hyper Drive built, and QTEs.

    So. Many. Fucking. QTEs.

    thank you for letting me know i'll hate it. i never went back to ff13 and sold it back to gamestop for some TOR credit. i fucking despise the 13 with a unreasonable passion. Its the first FF i never finished since i started playing 7. i even completed that shitstorm of 8, but lord i couldn't even stomach 13 for more than an hour.

  7. Sounds like shit. Maybe I'll just check out Nier for $6 or something. People liked Nier right?

  8. I like Nier.

    Not everyone.

  10. Yeah they didn't really tweak the battle system which is a little disappointing. The monster thing is pretty neat and I am actually a fan; especially since the game had some good enemy design.

    Also I still think most people don't know that there is an option to repeat the last command you inserted on your own. Really wish they had gotten rid of the auto though; it's so stupid. It's a little daunting being thrown into the Demo the way you are. XII did it right where you just ran around on the beach killing shit heading towards a goal, actually showing off some of the plot and throwing you into the middle of it is confusing as all hell.
