It may be cool to see Sazh in it again, we always need a black guy companion

I really wish these fucks would sort themselves out, I miss the old games so much. They just spew out shit and shitty sequels to shitty games nowadays when it comes to final fantasy.

Yeah, I agree completely.

They need to stop resting on their laurels so they can rest on their other laurels.

Anyway, I pray Sazh is in FF13-3.

They need to bring back the open area's and the villages, this game is going to be shit.

Most of us played FF7 before we even knew what 'emo' was. And quite frankly, I don't really get all the hate towards a character for being depressed or hesitating at times. If it fits within his story (I mean, Cloud took on the identity of his friend after that friend died in his arms, while forgetting his own past), why hate it? It's boring to always have a mentally solid protagonist.

For me the FF series is sort of a guilty pleasure, I know it has its bad sides but that doesn't stop me from getting completely immersed into it.

I've never completed any FF game. I've played a portion of VII because that seems to be what people freak out over. I have to say that as I expected I loved the hell out of the setting, at least at the beginning. Midgar is almost cyberpunk in its dystopian, high-tech nature, and is still visually interesting even if the graphics are outdated now.

It was nice when things opened up, but nothing else in the game really got me hooked as much as that place did and since it seemed that I would never be going back and the plot had turned into "Chase Sepheroth wherever" I got bored before I finished disc 1. The golden saucer was kinda' cool though.

Emo-Ness and similar issues never really bothered me because I find it impossible to be annoyed by embarrassing dialogue so long as it's not voiced for some reason so eh.

Well that was a shallow reason if any ever was.

I'm still hoping that they'll make a game like Final Fantasy 6 again, with a great story, and a great villian. I'm really put off by all the titles going all dark and angsty. 6 had a lot of good humor along with the drama. Not to say Final Fantasy 13 was a bad game, it wasn't, it was pretty good story wise and all, but characters like Hope are just a bore, and uninteresting. It needs more characters like Sazh.

I didn't finish XIII because of how hard it was because I ran past enemies and didn't grind.

Starting a new run right now though.

Know that feeling. but when you get to the Archylte steppe, you get control of your party AND more liberal chance to level with a ton of bland sidequests. But it's still the most solid pacing of story in any FF.

In FFX, i was in love with the game up until those open plains, about 2/3rds of the way. Then i found out i had to grind as fuck to pass Gagazet each step onwards from there had another steep level-barrier that i was too far below. But eventually, i didn't shit a give and just ran for Braska's final aeon and spent two months tactically mastering it with a horribly underleveled party and when i finally got the final cutscenes... I'd lost the thread.

So i'm pretty happy with the more tight pacing in FFXIII. Keeps the story going.
