Why make a trilogy of you're worst game ? at least make it have some interesting things. Final Fantasy x-2 Story was horrendous but everything else was fantastic. Except for the no blitzball.

Joedgabe

Just because you didnt like the games dosent mean their bad.. i loved both and cannot wait for this new one.. you dont like it dont pay attention to it, very easy

oh god.. internet is destroying my grammar.... "your"

Anyhow... it doesn't change the fact that 13 is their worst in the series as far as i know. Even if you and a lot of other people enjoyed the game they could have made one everyone could have enjoyed.. it would have been a better market decision and would boost up their tarnished reputation.

FFvs is still in development so all it's good, I can wait.

Nomura is not Toriyama.

-The battle system is time based, real time
-You map different attacks to the face buttons, there are no menus (like KH but less button mashy)
-You can move freely around in battle, timing is important
-'Overclock' ability lets you slow down time in battle to gain an advantage (wasn't Overclock originally shown with the first FFXIII trailer??)
-Lightning has loads of customization, and her skill selection is reflected by the gear which you have her wear
-The world is all new
-The game is open world, and quest based, not linear
-Different actions burn time in different ways in the world, such as discovering a certain treasure, or making certain decisions
-After 13 days you may be forced into the final battle regardless

New Info

This sounds pretty good. I'm actually interested.

This just sounds awful.

Man....I still need to finish Final Fantasy XIII-1.

Eh...>_> So I guess you won't repeat the days (which might be a good thing since going through 13 days over and over could get tedious)? On second thoughts, this doomsday system sounds iffy.

Nomura is not Toriyama.

Non-linear and 13 days limit (can be extended as you defeat enemies) kill my interest on this game. I guess we can expect DLC galore like XIII-2.

thats never possible. Everyone will always dislike something.

im iffy on this. mainly cause I dislike games that give me a time limit to play them. I never feel like im truly enjoying it since im always worried about time.

I say it because when I think Nomura this is what comes to mind: Kingdom Hearts, Dissidia and The World Ends With You (mostly good games and Kingdom Hearts has been pretty consistent and this is why there is nothing to fear. I know KH games are very wacky but that's how the series has been portrayed since the very beginning unlike FFXIII)

while Toriyama: FFX-2, FFXIII, FFXIII-2 (games that I didn't like one bit and that are all over the place from story to characters and overall design). The Lightning saga is a mess with many great ideas that would have worked if the story and other mechanics weren't so forced and tacky. And what I mean by that is what you just said there....

Toriyama also made XCapitan_Kid

SE be trolling cows and lemmings with versus hahaha

5theyu also gonna get trolled when it comes to TWEWY a:lol:

TL&CHBO

(sigh) i like ff13 but damn SE wheres versus

[QUOTE="Capitan_Kid"]Toriyama also made XSlashkice

Toriyama didn't write the scenario for X though, Nojima did. Toriyama isn't a good writer, and that's putting it lightly.

So she's fighting all alone in this game? Sounds more like a hack & slash action game than an rpg.

Can't wait to play this one after the ending FF XIII-2. I hope the saga comes to a fitting conclusion

Is this FFXIII-3, or just another FFXIII spin-off game?

[QUOTE="Capitan_Kid"]Toriyama also made XSlashkice

Did he write all the romance stuff? I personally felt all the romance stuff was shoved down my mouth the whole time I was playing x. It didint gel with me at all.

lol, this sounds like a disaster in the making. Who the hell plays FF to have a party of just one character?

[QUOTE="FPS_Gamer123"]

Stop smoking so much crack. Of course Cloud is a gaming icon and I say that as someone who is not enamored with the character in any way.

Honestly, this sounds interesting. I just wish they used all these ideas in an all new game instead of a third Final Fantasy XIII, one that no one asked for. charizard1605

Pretty much how I feel. I actually like th sound of this new game so far, just would have preferred it to be in another game (or maybe even FFXV). Should have just saved this new battle system for another non-XIII game and just have the final part of the XIII-saga keep the same battle system of the previous two games, with some tweaks here and there.

ionusX

SE should stick to publishing games :Pbadtaker

and pc development :cool:

Ummm... what the hell?:?

Talk about running out of ideas.

Square is dead to me.

And serious question, how many of you actually give flying f*ck about Lightning? Shes not even a good character and shes a terrible main character.

sandbox3d

This. I wanted her beaten and left in a ditch after the 1st hour of FFXIII. Please Square, stop making games based on FFXIII. No one likes that game.
