Those of us who played it at release don't remember it that way either :smug

I know what "fan service" is, but what's the term for abuse?

FF15 looks legit interesting.  The trailer was all "meh" but then I watched the gameplay video and it looks dope as fuck

I fully expect it to be a boring ass linear turn based shitburger, tho.  FF games have not made the transition to next gen very well.  FF12 offered up hope for evolution in the series, but just like with BoF: DQ the stupid jrpg fans shat all over it because they don't actually like evolution, they just want to play the same dumb fucking shit over and over and over again.

Which brings us back to Lightning as Cloud.  :smug

They say this NOW, but their track record has been shit of late.  Unless you're Borys and you've just gone ahead and sewed your lips uncritically to their anus to form a human centipede of blind Squeenix approval, I guess.

(Mainly I don't want to get excited for FF15 because if it is good it will make me think about buying a next gen console way earlier than I want to... who am I kidding, that shit is coming out in 2015)
Title: Re: Lightning Strife (cloud suit pre-order for ff13-3)
Post by: Himu on July 02, 2013, 11:17:58 AM
Yeah, their track record isn't the best. Still a reason to raise eyebrows after 13 though.

I just want 13 series to die, honestly.

I thought FF15 already backtracked on the world map and is back to FF12 style zones ???

Looking around it seems like they got rid of it when it was on the PS3 but maybe its back now on the PS4

Either way I'm interested, I've always enjoyed SE's action rpgs (threads of fate, kingdom hearts, etc)

 :lawd :mouf

Yes, please.

Honestly, if FFvs13/15 is as good as FF12 I'll buy it. 13-2 fixed a few issues I had with 13, but I dunno if I want to buy a "13-3" since the cast and world just isn't interesting enough for me to probably go a third time even if they are completely changing everything in the third installment. Toriyama really needs to go.

"We couldn't put together a finished PS3 game in seven years, but we're totes good on finishing a PS4 game this decade, honest!"

Yep, until the game is in retail box stores for sale I refuse to believe the game is even being worked on.

They've learned the jabbering fantards will put up with literally anything and still come around with smiles on their faces.

I imagine they've also learned a lot about looking like you're working while you're actually fucking off on the Internet all day.
Cobblestone girl wouldn't fuck off on 2ch all day. :'(

This is pretty much my concern.  Plus the fact that FF13 sucks.

Are they putting out a XIII-2 complete collection with all the dlc included on the cheap? I'd get that to fuck around with maybe, but then I'd be playing FFXIII. :yuck

All the 13-2 DLC got a permanent price chop, but I dont think they're doing a complete package in Amerikka. Just in Japan.

I've only done the Sazh DLC, are there any interesting "story DLCs" or is it just coliseum battles and alternate costumes?

They have some fresh graduates and a beta engine and decided to make it into a total fan service game. I mean, why not?

Young Hope still pisses me off. Can't fap to that.

Well, it's got some of the same characters and reuses engine assets?
