Squeenix Final Fantasy XIII

[abnaxus]

Are these better than XII?

 

[Duraframe300]

Hopefully they are somewhat moddable. XIII-2 with proper difficulty would be among my favorite FF's (V,VI,IX)

 

[Morgoth]

Holy shit dat price.

I was expecting something in the 39.99 Jewro range to be honest.

 

[Crooked Bee]

This is pretty cool, and pretty cheap too. I was thinking of borrowing a PS3 at some point to play through the trilogy, but now I don't have to.

No.

XIII is terrible, I thought it was pretty much well known by this point.

LR is special in that it grows on you the more you play/replay it.

Its a uniquely structured game.

Traitor. FFXII had Basch, and Fran, and Balthier. (Also undead princess.)

 

[Raghar]

11,69€*3 = ???
But I guess it's cheap and GFX is cute, and non removed version would be even cheaper. And then there could be 1$ steam sale. But I watched movie on youtube already. (Aka playthrough without unnecessary combat.)

Just remember, I tried to warn you...

You mean, a rip off of Majora's Mask ?

j/k I never played past the first game in the series

Its... different (imo)

Though the comparison is certainly there.

Final Fantasy XV is inevitable now.

Are these better than XII?

This is an easy feat.

 

[Felix]

FFXII is one of the better FF so no

 

[Damned Registrations]

I really tried to like 12, the setting seemed awesome, the writing was good. But the gameplay... dear god. It was somehow worse than 8, and that was like chewing glass.

Considering trying 13. It can't possibly be worse than 12's 'LOL play slot machine to win boss fight' can it?

Actually I sort of enjoyed the combat in FF13. It was the rest of the game I hated.

Only one week and two days until release. Are you getting excited? If not for anything else than on storm of butthurt.

Also, it's crazy but it looks like Steam is using actual conversion rates between euro and US currency.

 

[Machocruz]

Is Xenoblade comparable to 12 in terms of its world structure and aesthetic? I loved just dicking around in some areas, trying to get uniques to spawn. They did a good job with ambiance for the time, too.

 

[Crooked Bee]

Dunno about aesthetics and ambiance, but the world structure is reasonably open and dicking around trying to get uniques to spawn is one of the pretty fun things about Xenoblade.

FFXII is one of the better FF so no

Final Fantasy XII another sad essay in the book of "what could have been" Square has been writing since merging with Enix.

Fixed.

The character designs in 13 are so unappealing. The cutscene model designs they've had since like 10 are damn revolting and by 13 they look like that in gameplay too. They need to steal the stuff Arc System Works did with 2D anime turned into 3D models for Guilty Gear Xrd instead of the gross "anime-ified Japanese fashion monsters" thing they've fallen into.

 

[taxalot]

It mostly hapened with the move to last gen 7 or 8 years ago. People blame the character design getting worse . I am not sure it's that. I think it stayed mostly the same. Trouble is, with technology getting better, it looks ridiculous wherea in the best, when character were 30 pixels big, nobody would notice.

Mix this with us getting older and holy shit !

Hoping for full masters of the cutscenes and high-res gameplay with all the bells and whistles.

Usually if someone publishes on console first, then ports to PC, they make a big deal about how they are remastering it for PC. The fact that they haven't said anything for FF13 is concerning.

 

[Diablo169]

Square usually port as cheaply as possible. I wouldn't hold your breath.
