Alright, I don't have it, but probably everyone else here does. So, I've taken the initiative and started this thread. All FF13 information and discussion goes here. |

I'm on Chapter...Nine, I think. Taking a break from the plot to grind out some battles in this respawning hallway of fighting and death. It's tedious, but the CP and Incentive Chips are totally worth it. |

I still laugh every time I see the phrase "CP" Oh 4Chan, what has thou done to me? Anyway, I paused at Chapter IX as well. Some reason it seems like it's a common pausing point. o.O |

For me it was because you needed from 450 CP to 1200 CP per ability and I was amazed that the game actually started to become good, that and 2700 CP for a single re-spawning Hallway was amazing. Also, yeah, CP is funny. |

I plan on maxing out the available Roles for each of the four available characters before moving on. Of course, that means that Sazh and Vanille are going to be ridiculous once I get back to them, lol. |

While reading this keep in mind I have not beat the game or even got to the end. But I'm on chapter 6 about 12 hrs in so I thought I had a good enough idea of the game to do a review. First off I will say Final Fantasy XIII has the worst battle system of any game I have ever played. I've never been a fan of turn based battle systems. I like to have more freedom of what I can do with my characters in RPG's. But the battle system in Final Fantasy XIII tops the cake of shitty turn based battle systems. To the point where it makes me miss the old turn based battle systems. And the shitty battle system is the main problem I have with the game, but not the only problem. You know back in the day when you would sit down and play an RPG? And you would be able to go look around all over several different towns, planets, and buildings? Well you can't do any of that anymore, nope not in Final Fantasy XIII. Its a huge straight line from start to end. Yes I know I haven't got to the end, but I've talked to people that has and they say it stays that way till the last place you go. Its just a line that every now and then will have a shorter line leading off the original line and it will lead to an item, then its back to the straight line of doom again. And I know Final Fantasy games have always had really weird enemies, but when you have to fight a giant tomato... Your going too far. Now not all in this game is bad. The story though kinda confusing and a little odd, is still pretty good and keeps you wondering whats gonna happen. The characters are pretty cool for the most part. Though so far one of them is beyond annoying (Hope). I hate how they keep splitting up your party though. One minute you will have a 3 people the next you will have 2 or 1. And you have to keep switching back to playing different characters in different areas. The graphics are really good, but nothing to write home about. It would probably look a lot better in an HDTV (which I don't have). I wish they would use MOCAP like in Mass Effect, it makes the movements of the characters look so much more real then just cartoony. In the end I say Final Fantasy XIII has a good story and good characters but all that is stuck in a bad game. I'm sure fan boys will love it even though deep down inside they will know its not nearly as good as FFX (the only truly great Final Fantasy game). |

FFXII>FFX any day. (Yes, I'll take lifeless characters over characters I want to beat up and give swirlies to.) I'm still only 30 minutes in and I probably restart and play it during the summer. Mike, if you don't like TBS(Turn Based Systems), why the hell did you get the game in the first place? As far me, after playing 4 tri-Ace and only liking one, I know I'll hate tri-Ace games, no matter what. You state you don't like TBS, so why torture yourself? I'm not defending FFXIII in any way, as I only played 30 minutes and I'm not a FF fanboy. Edited by Lucifer, Mar 27 2010, 07:30 PM.

I didn't buy it (thank God). I borrowed it from a friend. And I'm still playing it cause I like the story and characters, and I try not to let a fight system keep me from enjoying a game. And I was lied to, a lot of people said it wasn't a TBS. But it still wouldn't have stopped me from playing it. I mean Legend of the Dragoon is one of my favorite RPG's and it had a TBS. I just don't prefer it, I enjoy other fighting systems more. |

I warned you :P, though I would switch what you said about the Battle System and the Story since the Story is balls and I honestly think this is one of the much better battle systems in the series, easily the fastest one. |

Yeah I'm sure a lot of people like it, but I'm not one of them lol. The story is weird and some of its kinda dumb but its good enough to make me keep playing. This game is better than 8, 9, and 12 easy. But 10 is still my favorite.

Story? Most RPGs, Japanese or Western, don't have great stories. Only series I would ever think of playing just for story is the Shin Megami Tensei series. |

If an RPG has a shitty story. Why play it? I mean I've played games that I didn't think the story was that great. But I still thought it was worth putting 30+ hrs into it. If I thought a story sucked, I wouldn't play it very long. But we all have our own opinions. |

That's why I haven't beaten the game yet. Between my Dad going in the hospital and the game not being really that good, even after giving me an understanding of the Story in Chapter 9 and an Open Map + Side Quests in Chapter 11, all I can do now is grind for 10 hours until I can actually beat more then 1/2 of the monsters on the map...so now I'm playing DA:O again and Half Life 2 |

The ironic part is that Diversity is an actual Paradigm. What's also funny is Sazh starts out as a mage making him the Black Mage of the party. |
