Originally posted by Spam So what´s the verdict from the players of FF13? I´ve been reading reviews and even the good ones are headlining every red flag that told me this game was going to be watered-down garbage. - No towns. - No shops. - No conversable NPCs. - No side-quests. - No mini-games. - No airship. - No world map. Sounds like another slog through a hallway like FF10. Confirm or Deny?

I'm about 8 hours in and I can say that most of what you just said is true. Story is nice but the battle system is strange and the lack of ability to explore the world is very missed. too linear. I am glad I purchased this game but after I have completed it, I'm sure I will be using it as bait to trade for another game on craigslist or kajiji.

Is the story worth playing through at least? FFX is a pile of linear bullshit, but I was still able to really enjoy the story and didn´t regret playing it by the time I was done. If I find a cheap used copy one day, will it be worth it?

If I found a used copy I would pick it up. so far the story iss till very fragmented, and i'm now 12 hours in. So i'm waiting for this game to come together. So far imo not worth the 70 bones i paid for it.

Unfortunately, this game is repetitive. Minus the fact that you can't explore, after 10 hours of play i am still using the same weapons over an over. I haven't needed to upgrade much. The enemies are a joke, and the whole stagger system is boring. I am sorry, while the graphics are great and the rest of the game is a letdown. This game is so over exaggerated its laughable. Not worth the money.

Not liking it at ALLLLL! Really wanted some cool character customizations (Weapon/armor sets). Battles are getting a little too boring. Im 7 hours in and im not impressed. I wish they would just remake Chrono Trigger and fuck off.

I hate weapons upgrades. Just find NEW weapons that replace the shit ones. I dont get the sense that my character is improving.

oh....and the story has me bored!

Yep. They have a DS version of it I MUST pick up.


Also, if there is no exploration, no world man, just a plod through I am glad I'm not buying it. Will probably just get XIV instead and play online w a former co worker.

I used to play Eve Online and it was cool for a while but I wanted to do more than just fly a ship.

I think they actually did, in Japan, it just never made it past the border. But maybe I'm thinking of one of the old FF games...

Originally posted by DigiNut Do it. ME2 was expertly done, and they actually listened to their fans and tweaked out some of the (minor) annoyances from ME1. Hell, just look at the people they get to do the voice acting for these - Martin Sheen, Carrie-Ann Moss, Seth Green - they put some serious teeth into this series, except that unlike the FF games, the ME games do not behave like movies and spend half their time in cut scenes. Only thing about the Mass Effect games is, they're kind of short, which I guess is understandable given what goes into them. If you're looking for a massive time-sink then go for DAO instead. Honestly, play one or two BioWare games and everything else will seem like crap. (Well, Bethesda's stuff comes close, everything else is miles behind)
