2009-06-04 11:54:52 The FINAL FANTASY Series - Launch Trailer in Japanease

Ok I thought we should make a big thread for all things Final Fantasy 13 (note, this does not include FF14 Online as that's part of a different universe)

So far we know of 3 Games out of apparently six titles developed within the universe of FF13. These are
FF13 [360/PS3]
FF13 Versus [PS3]
FF13 Agito [PSP]

Here is the official Fabula Nova Crystallis website
http://www.square-enix.co.jp/fabula/

I will update this thread with everything that has been released for all games.
Please keep it clean and dont bring up this is exclusive to this and that's exclusive to that blah blah.

Here are past topics that have been created about each different game (the ones I could salvage through the search engine that is)

Though there was a FF13 thread.

And I don't see why 14 isn't allowed to be discussed here, 13 games have nothing to do with one another.

That being said there isn't much to be said about 13 now until it comes out, you seen one video you seen em all.

After playing the demo I ain't all that excited about it anymore.

I'm finding it hard to dig the characters in ff13. If they are going to try to do modern ff they gotta do it like ff8, otherwise stick to something more midevil in nature.

The other three FFXIII games are probably continuations of the threee you poasted.

The FXIII has really gone down in terms of story telling or more like it hasnt evolved. I dont sense any emotion from the FF series anymore. I feel like all there titles are starting to become chessy over the top rehashes. Maybe they need to take lessons from the devs of ICO, SOTC, TRICO.

2009-06-07 11:26:42

You nailed it. They've lost something. All the really need to do is go back and look at some of their earlier ff games. It really isn't that difficult. They can bring back what they've lost with a bit of inspiration.

Another version of the E3 trailer that was released in Japan, showing a couple of new gameplay scenes towards the end!

I have to say when you watch it in Japanease, the lip synching is outstanding!

He's probably not feeling what he has seen of ff13 so far.

I become more concerned for this game as the days go by.

This doesn't sound exciting at all.

Snow just strikes me as one of the most utterly disappointing ff characters I've ever seen. Square needs to go back to their roots or just hurry up and announce a new console Kingdom Hearts game. Probably the only thing besides "The World Ends With You" that they seem to handle with any bit of competence these days. Although.. even in the last KH you could sorta start to see signs of Square maybe losing their way. It was a fun experience though.

weird, this is by far the most appealing FF i've come across.

This and ME2 will make 2010 an RPG dream for me.

I'm not sure I understand either. I don't care though, I'm not on board the anti-MMORPG train.
