FFXIII-2 Discussion Thread

SE is making a sequel because it's the fastest selling FF game ever I believe.
(I personally think it had the potential even if it wasn't the fastest selling)

Anyways, for those of you who enjoyed XIII, what do you want changed in the game?

I want a leveling system like X or XII, at least one that's not so incredibly boring.
A MUCH better way to get money. (It took me hours after I beat the game to afford Lightning's best weapon)
Battle system like XII, and no auto battle
 
I want maybe one new character, more side quests, ultimate weapons, and a longer storyline.
I just hope the game won't be so linear as FFXIII and that storyline won't be so boring. And of course I hope that Summons will be much stronger than in FFXIII.
 
Of course I've gone to the FF wiki and read about the Goddess Etro_One problem I have with it is the notion that Lightning would submit herself to servitude to a goddess who wasn't of any obvious assistance with their struggles in the recent conflict.
Of course yes Etro's actions did help some but if you didn't read you wouldn't have noticed.It certainly wasn't obvious.

The presumption is this will somehow free Vaniille and Fang and yes we can guess who the male protagonist serves.It seems pretty obvious after you read about Etro..
I wonder though if Lightning would feel enough of a bond with Fang and Vanille to dedicate herself to that cause.

shrugs.

I guess we'll find out.

With Square losing money it seems:

and Wada saying they will choose titles more wisely it makes me wonder if FFXIII-2 is the wisest choice to make at this point in time.

shrugs.
 
I wasn't even aware of Etro's presence in the game. I guess I'm just not very observant.
I'd like to see a better leveling system, more towns with actual shops (instead of the same catalog at every save point), and stronger summons. To me the linearity was fine with the exception of towns because it kept me focused on the story, something I tend to lose track of after awhile.

and @ANGRYWOLF after reading Episode i it becomes obvious that saving Fang and Vanille will be a part of the game, unless SE for some reason decides to change that. And just cause I'm curious who is it that you think the new male character will serve? Sorry I haven't read about it yet.
 
Hmmmm..
There is life and there is death.
For balance you need death as much as life.

Read the wiki and you can make an educated guess.

As it is I'm not sure/positive of anything but that makes sense to me.

I would prefer they just have gone on and finished versus and then did FFXV.

shrugs.

But Wada obviously doesn't listen to me.

I presume saving Vanille and Fang is one of the game's purposes.
It probably has another purpose as yet unknown to us but probably includes an awakening.

shrugs.

At least I hope it does.
 
Personally I think this game will do very well considering that FFXIII was just a forward straight shot. There were not really any sidequests and missions that allowed you to go back, no towns/shops nor any NPC's to ineteract with.

Having this part 2 will allow them to explain and expand what really went on in this game. I am just hoping the characters in this game will be as interesting as FFXIII's were.

Even though I liked the more "linear" style of Final Fantasy XIII, I'd like to see those characters and battle system in a more open world, with towns!
My only complaint about FFXIII was the need to read the in-game resources to understand the plot/world. I wouldn't mind a more concise story line.
Other than that I'd like to see the battle system remain largely the same. If they do make changes, I wouldn't mind being able to change controllable characters in the middle of battle. Also, I find I rarely ever used summons, never had the need for them. After those tough battles to get them, that's a little disappointing.
Keep the beautiful soundtrack please :)
 
I'm so excited to have a second part of this coming out, when FFXIII ended... it didn't feel like an ending... this is actually the first FF that I was really confused and didn't really know what was going on, I mean the basics were obvious but the rest of it was kinda like... who's that guy again and what did he do? Kinda thing, so I'm glad they're coming out with a second half, and here's hoping the battle systems go back to like 12, I LOVED that battle system, I absolutely hate random battles and the fact you can't just go up and slice it now... 12's I couldn't get enough of :)
 
omg i just found out about this today, somehow and thought it was a joke. i am so happy right now cause i actually loved FFXIII. So im very excited about this, although i agree Lightnings suit of armor isnt the best option ever, but i agree with this

I'm wondering what the plot will exactly be about. I mean, they already put Lightning in a sexier outfit. That has me worried. I'm getting flashbacks... SOMEONE. HELP.
 
I just hope Fang gets her sexy ass back. Fuck, she's fine. She can bring that ginger with her too I guess
I hope we get to see Dajh kick some ass too, that'd be sweet
 
So does anyone know what the main playable characters will be in XIII-2 will be? Of course I know Lightning will be one but are there any returning characters from the first that'll be main characters again?

And as far as I've read they will not alter the personality of lightning like they did Yuna from FFX to FFX-2. =/. I hope they don't put her in a skirt and a tanktop...
 
skirt and tanktop +1

haha at least they assured us lightning will be seen in armours not some ridiculous high school uniform. as for returning characters i can see no one else with any reason to be battling(Fang & vanille crystalised, afro busy babysitting his son, hope should go to school, and i don't want to see snow anymore)

but honestly, i would like SE to get on versus XIII first then making more sequels :dry:
 
I feel unclean just posting this in here. :hmph:

But here you tards go, thank me later. -__-

Called it.

Knew Serah had to be playable the moment they announced XIII-2. Hell, I'm damn sure the only reason it didn't happen in XIII was cause of the whole
crystalisation thing.

This dude got good swag mind. Need to know where he does his clothes shopping.
 
I wonder what type of Class Serah would be classified as. She'l probably be best with white magic of somesort. =/.
 
Oh nice. So What exactly did they do to Serah? I knew she would be a plable character and all. I actually called it. Noel though? :hmmm: Serah looks... like she was just sexed up. The battle system looks the same and that is a given. More tweaked.
