norzman5 0 Report post Posted January 14, 2012 It's sort of hard to explain why I didn't like it, I normally would, but for some reason I just didn't enjoy myself playing it to where the game felt like a chore. There is something wrong with an rpg where I don't have to be looking at the tv to win. I actually got through like 3 chapters (in the middle of the game I don't remember which ones) while walking around my dorm hallway. I also didn't like how most of the game had you limited to a party of two, which is a shame because I felt the battle system was at it's best when you had a full party. However, my favorite final fantasy's are 5,6,7, and 8(but just barely). I haven't played 2,3,and 4. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Lone Wolf† 0 Report post Posted January 14, 2012 Yes, the story was good but the mashing of the X button being able to make you win was not that great. This new game is supposed to fix that and from what I saw in the demo, that issue seems to be fixed. You definitely won't be able to just sit around and casually COM/RAV/MED your way out of everything what with the new wound damage. Battles will have to be done and done efficiently. I love the leveling system as well. You definitely have to make choices as to what you want when you level up... for example if you want an extra ATB gauge segment, you'll have to sacrifice new jobs and bonuses for your current jobs. Idk... it looks promising Also like that you can change the difficulty. Should mean that for those that just want an interactive story, it'll work fine still.

norzman5 0 Report post Posted January 14, 2012 Oh I forgot something that made me really mad was that every time the party would switch because of the story, the game would change all of your paradigms. It was so inconvenient. What I didn't like about the story was how there was a bunch of times where one of the characters would start feeling sad and want to give up and they have like an intervention sort of and then fight the summon. Too repetitive in the storyline. Also, I was playing the game on hard so there wasn't much I could change in terms of difficulty, unless I played blind folded. Personally I'm would rather wait till Final Fantasy Verses 13. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kail† 0 Report post Posted January 20, 2012 12 was decent, 13 was okay but the auto-battle took a lot of the strategy out of the gameplay and makes level-grinding undesirable after you beat it... 10 was AWESOME. 11 is okay but it's kinda lame to be playing it alone D: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Lone Wolf† 0 Report post Posted January 21, 2012 13 was okay but the auto-battle took a lot of the strategy out of the gameplay and makes level-grinding undesirable after you beat it... Yes, that was probably one of my only complaints... way too many fights can be one just be spamming "X" with a COM/RAV/MED setup, but it looks like that will be fixed in FFXIII-2. One thing I noticed is with the "wound" damage, you find yourself having to finish fights a lot more seriously then just waiting it out (I've only played the demo but from what I saw, there were many improvements). I also like how much faster and more fluid the fights are. For example, switching paradigms no longer enters a mini-cutscene, and instead all your characters just switch at once. Also, the ability to change the leader in-battle is nice as well. No more losing just cause your leader got KO'ed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
