PM-R33 Posted March 17, 2010 Author Share Posted March 17, 2010 (edited) Im about 20 hours into the game, all in all not a bad game but yep definetely gotta say this game is a fail for me. If it had any other name to it, it would be a fantastic game, but the fact it's a Final Fantasy game, just doesn't live up to it. Great graphics, a billion hours of cut scenes and a storyline more complicated than a clitoris just doesn't do it for me. I dunno maybe im just getting old and getting over games. But this game just doesn't have the same feel as the old ones. Honestly every single one from 7 onwards has been more enjoyable to play than this.

mattis96 Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 i read that when installing the themes you unlock on ps3 can glitch some trophies and its best to install them if you dont plan on going for platinum or installing after you get platinum.

Dani Boi Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 was gonna buy it today till i realise its gonna take 30gb off my harddrive just to installed it Yeah for the Xbox it does, that's why you should buy a PS3 I take back my previous statement about battle system and character building. It get's more involved the more you play. Pretty awesome game, the only thing killing it is the linearity.

It get's more involved the more you play. Pretty awesome game, the only thing killing it is the linearity. Yeah I really enjoy the battle system.. I got 6 atb gauges with ultimate weapons Also I just killed this huge cacture thing that always appears in the FF series, pretty hard the f**ker hits you for 9998 every time he does this gay needle attack...

mad082 Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 i know the guy you are talking about. i used to fight him in ff10 with a weapon equiped where you gain experience points based off the damage recieved to your characters. by simply reviving members over and over you could earn tens of thousands of EX points per fight.

I forget... was the king cacture thing a normal enemy in FF10? He is like a secret boss in 13. Makes strange noises... I think Japs find it funny or something? Weird.. lol Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/303243-final-fantasy-xiii/page/6/#findComment-5140972 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mad082 Posted March 19, 2010 Share Posted March 19, 2010 in FF10 he wasn't really a boss, just a person you would randomly encounter on the plains where you could ride a chocobo (although it was a slightly more rare occurance than the normal monsters), but i have a feeling he may have also been a semi boss in 1 section as well, where it didn't matter if you killed him or not, it just stopped you from getting some goodies.

Shazbanger Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 I'm about 47hrs into the game. At first, i was like "Is this really it?" but trust me, it gets better. Whilst it is rather linear at times, i can tell you that around chapter 13, shit starts opening up, and its a lot more free playable. Remember in FFVIII, how you get Balamb Garden, and then later in game (Disc 4) you get the airship "Ragnarok"? Trust me, you want to keep playing. It only gets better. I tried fighting this dinosaur looking thing that is like 30 storeys high, and got stepped on causing 40,000 damage to all my characters in one hit. Gives you an indication of how long the game is!

PM-R33 Posted April 4, 2010 Author Share Posted April 4, 2010 (edited) Hahaha yeah i've tried fighting that thing half a dozen times.....no luck.

mad082 Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 was in dick smith looking at the game on the weekend and telling the missus i want it. she asked if i knew whether it was any good and i told her about this thread and how it only takes about 30 hours for the good stuff to really start happening. the look she gave me could've solved global warming.
