Is anyone else excited for FF XIII-2 or did you preorder it?

SpaghettiHair · 2012-01-30 23:54:16

I preordered the collector's edition lol... I am such a die hard square-enix fan.

Jeremy · 2012-01-31 00:01:38

oh cool so did I, I'm looking forward to playing it. Did you hear about the FF XIII-2: The Complete Official Guide - Collector's Edition?

Same here - I do like the art work in them though.

SpaghettiHair · 2012-01-31 00:41:20

Ommg. Have you heard the soundtrack though? It's beaaauuutttiiifffullll lol

Jeremy · 2012-01-31 00:45:50

A little but not much, I will soon though.

SpaghettiHair · 2012-01-31 01:16:11

lol, good. Have you played any other ff games?

Kana · 2012-01-31 02:34:44

My my... there've been a lot of complaints that the series deserves better than what XIII-2 delivers.

Hei · 2012-01-31 03:09:12

Haven't played an FF since X.

Nikki · 2012-01-31 08:03:46

I want sad

YujiYMT · 2012-01-31 08:38:43

I want too sad

The Flying Pinky · 2012-01-31 11:12:28

I've also preordered the game but can't pick it up til late tonight cuz of ghetto work X__x Not expecting too much from the game, but then again, I don't consider this a true FF (just like I don't consider X-2 a true FF), but I can't see it being that poor - I personally liked XIII's battle system, and if this game tightens it up, that would be enough for me smile

To further Turbo's statement, I would actually argue that the series deserved better than what XIII delivered. There hasn't been a really great FF since X (so you haven't missed that much, Hei), but I still think from a pure gameplay mechanic standpoint, XII is the best one - it's just too bad that it lacked the story and emotional connections that the great FFs created (ie VII, X).

UKIkarus · 2012-01-31 12:04:23

If it has epic music I want to see a multitude of postings with piano comps big_smile

Indeed. XIII didn't deliver as much as some people hoped, Fans seem to think XIII-2 is fine, because it corrects a lot of issues XIII hadm but it doesn't innovate. There's nothing fresh on the table, and the DLC is annoying people. Walk up to an ingame charater and among the selections of options you can choose, a few certain ones provide a message that's something along the lines of "This will be available at a later time through DLC" <---- IN GAME

I've 'heard' the music is on the lower end of the enjoyable spectrum. Only heard this from a couple critics reviews and personal friends who've already had the Japanese game shipped to them ahead of time to play.

Iota · 2012-01-31 15:38:30

I still haven't play XIII; bought it a bit ago but I am reluctant to if it's super long and not good.....I wanted to hear the music and see the art though hmm

PianoNoob · 2012-01-31 16:02:55

Hmm, you guys got me thinking, i was about to buy Skyrim but i think FF will bring me alot more fun hmm The only FF's i played were 1 and 2 on the Gameboy Advance, but i did love those ALOT i think my savegame was over 350 hours (which is much since i was only 12 years old then). I really like the kind of "magical feeling" (no idea how to describe that feeling) that Square Enix games give you smile For someone who has not played alot of FF, which one would you guys recommend me to buy?

Played the demo for FFXIII-2 it isn't really that great more like a try to get more money from the same story, some small changes and only 2 playable characters +x non-story monsters, not really sounding so well imo

PianoNoob · 2012-01-31 16:21:03

You did not listen to me smile

I never played FF 3,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12 or 13 so this game will be entirely new for me. For a new game, is it good?

Buy skyrim. It will be worth your money haha.

But I personally will make you buy 8, 9, and 10 when you decide to get a ff game. They all have beautiful stories and 10 will always blow my mind.

But *sigh. I am keeping my fingers crossed. I hope XIII-2 is good. I am really looking forward to XIII-Versus though...

YujiYMT · 2012-01-31 17:09:34

Haha, like Spaghetti said, between FF XIII-2 and Skyrim, the latter is a better buy, I guess.

Sadly, I haven't even inserted the game disc into my PS3 yet sad

My friend convinced his parents to let him stay home today and play it. I called him at least 3 times... I think he might still be playing it lol. I plan to get it soon though.

Jeremy · 2012-02-01 20:27:31

He must of been very convincing lol
