I think I'm just excited for this one because I still remember when this was first revealed as versus 13 or 13.

Tbh I didn't haven't payed attention to FF (aside from this one) since I bought ffx and let my friend borrow it (stupid.mistake, gonna by the remaster tho)

This franchise has been irrelevant for like a decade as far as gaming culture is concerned,i dont get why people are still buying these games.

Here's 40+ minutes worth of gameplay footage from the demo.
Feel free to make a thread about it if it's a big deal.



Still watching it myself, so I can't give an opinion yet.

This is literally all they have to do to be considered the GOAT again. The only reason why Cloud and Squall worked is because for Squall, he's a 17-year-old soldier who went through abandonment issues and Cloud was running on false memories. And when Cloud DID learn the truth, that fukked him up.

I personally think we need more main FF characters who were like Zidane or Tidus. Zidane's the 16-year-old thief who's a playboy, and Tidus is a 17-year-old sports superstar with father issues. Regardless of the shyt they go through, they more or less stay cheery. The whole angsty character trope isn't something you want to overdo. Lightning was a bytch for no reason, Hope was a Sasuke Uchiha waiting to happen, and everyone's basically a head case except for Sazh.

I think before anything else, they need to work on a rock-solid story. Make it where you're actually submerged in the world you're playing. Develop characters where you can actually connect with, give them backstories that make you want to root for them. Add life to the scenery, make the dialogue more convincing. FFXIII was their attempt of making another FFVII but different and failed. They're completely capable of making a better game than FF7, they just have to really be creative and not pump out a title just because it's time to.
Only reason ff13 was weak was because they're weren't enough summons, I'LL looking magic attacks and impressive weapon based special attacks.

All this corny Backstory shyt isn't necessary

Most people love that shyt, though. I'm one of the few that enjoyed XIII so :yeshrug:. But I do agree that they definitely needed more of that.
