Final Fantasy

[bobbot]

I have played all of the FF's except for XII, the portables, and the wii stuff. I consider myself a fan. My favorites were on the SNES and back. I was most fond of VIII on Playstation (though I played on PC). I hated X. I loved XI because I loved the old FF's as well as Tactics; it combined the best elements of the best FF's IMO. XIII looks like it'll be similar to X in the way that I hated X, so I probably won't be buying it.

The only thing that would sell it to me is graphics alone, and it would have to be at 60fps throughout the whole game, and this during a time when there are 3 other games I'd rather buy. At best, I might gamefly it in a few years.

I've played it for close to 30 hrs... but I haven't found any mini game yet. I've been stuck playing Yakuza 3 (jp ver) & RE5 DLC stuff kept me busy (finally beat both of em). Hopefully I'll start playing again.

Similar to X? What do you mean buy that? Story? Battle System? Leveling Up? Cuz there are just few thing that XIII reminds me of X, for me XIII kinda reminded me of XII for the battle system (but 200x better), some map concept reminded me of X-II, storyline kinda have feeling of IV & VII due to.... can't say it cuz it'll be spoiler and have some weird enemy concept from VI. So pretty much XIII is mix of a lot of FF series.

I won't have time to play it and FF has gone downhill really since VIII. Have no interest anymore.

Man reading all this has got me wanting to play it, I may end up picking it up anyway.

Can't say it too much cuz it'll spoil the fun, but yes, they brought back the sphere system (but bit different). As for leveling up... $%^&*(*&^%... Also )(*&^!@#$ gauge is missing too.

I just think it'll be too focused on non-game elements. To me, it was never about the pretty stuff in the game. But since the franchise has reached the ps2, they seem to have shifted priorities. I'm still hella excited for FFXIV, however.
