    <3 poison

    You're right, 13-2 and 13-3 destroy 13's story, even so much as retconning the ending in the first 5 minutes. I both like and dislike it at the same time, i liked my 13 ending and would have been happy with it, but 13-2 and 3 seem to push the story into a tragic end versus a happy end, which I feel not a lot of stories get nowadays. It's bittersweet.

    I didn't mind 13's length so much, 13 was actually the first Final Fantasy game I'd ever really played for more than a few hours, and so my paradigm (pardon the pun) going into them was that these games were known for their story, and story is what 13 gave you a lot of, and the development of all of the characters took time.

    13-2 and 3 had character development as a sideline to QUESTS QUESTS QUESTS ARTIFICIAL GAMEPLAY LENGTHENING QUESTS. 13 had REAL gameplay length, so anyone who complains about artificial gameplay lengthening who hates how long 13 is can go suck a side quest.

    Platting 13 is fun, it's rewarding to see the trophies unlock.

    Fair enough, all of the important things happen in the spamzone.

    I'll have to see if I'm still getting level 4 moves or if I have to wait until later in the days.

    My personal strategy for anything tough is Stagger>Overclock>Artemis' Arrows*3>Army Of One>Overclock>Artemis' Arrows*3>Army Of One>Ether>Rinse>Lather>Repeat.

    Snow :(. I'm kind of coming to terms with the idea that not everything needs a happy ending.

    I actually disliked 13-2 more than 13 and I've got a whole rant on that which I'm saving for a video.

    13 wasn't so bad, it just took time, I actually got kind of zen taking down adamantoises and whatnot with the groove I got into. One thing I'm not proud of is the fact that I platinumed 13 twice (one for my then girlfriend) and 1k'd it on 360. I reeeeeeeeeally liked 13...

    My only reason for the suggestion was because it's actually a discussion about the game and not just spam :P

    I'm much farther into the game, actually I've "beaten it" already. Rather I got past day 7 and found that the bosses were now unbeatable. That whole stat boost thing really sneaks up on you. I had been working on leveling up with side quests and whatnot before taking them on, as I was playing on normal, not knowing that I'd have to spend the next several days doing the same if I took too long.

    As for movesets, I did finally start getting better moves and whatnot, I've found that synthesis isn't really all that necessary, as I was getting level 4 (+bonus) moves sometime past day 9 (I made it to 11 with only two main quests done). I had more than 40 side quests, so I should be able to handle that again, especially since I now have a good grasp on the mechanics of the game.

    Artemis' Arrows is OP and I love it.

    As of now I'm not hating squeenix as much as I did witht his game, at least as far as the quality of it. I suppose I let the reviews get to me, but I should have known, as the reviews for XIII were bad as well. Though that beginning shot of Snow's palace in all of its PS2 quality glory was a bit of a kick to the shins.
    I'm also torn on the story, because the whole Serah/Snow thing was a big part of why I liked XIII, but now this whole thing seems more like a cruel tragedy, with Serah dying and Snow basically giving up on life and wanting to die/changing as a person... I didn't finish Snow's main quest, so I don't know if things turned out differently after the battle with him, but the fact that he basically turned into a cieth and went all dark and brooding, nuh uh, not for me, give me back my reckless hopeful Snow plz.

    I'm going to see if I can't tackle the rest of the trophies this time around.

    Also suggesting this be moved to video game thread?

    I got the limited/special/whatever edition when it first came out and played a few hours of it. I recently just got back to it, probably much to Jayn's chagrin for hogging the TV for hours, and have been finding it wasn't quite as frustrating or annoying as I had originally thought it was, though I'm probably about 1/3 through the game by now and am finding that the battle system could have been better, or, moreover, the way you acquire attacks. Or perhaps leveling.

    The whole game feels like a balancing act, where you have to be constantly shifting gears (like paradigms in intense battles through the first two games herk herk) to barely keep on top of being able to stand a chance against enemies.

    Or maybe I'm just in a higher level area without knowing it? The game is "open world" but that doesn't mean the parts of the world you can go to won't kick your ass without hesitation.

    Either way, I'm going to finish the game and stick it out to the end, but as of right now, I'm still pretty disappointed with the heavy decline the 13 series has gone through. Tell me it gets better, and tell me I won't always be struggling to have a respectable moveset.

    Wait, I thought me and Nova were in the real relationship?

    I've been betrayed. Or I've done the betraying?

    Who knows?

    @Misty definitely not worth it to have to get all the trophies over again. If there's a group who want to play on PStriple I'm down, but if errbody's got it on PSquad I'm straight, I'll just wait til I can afford to buy @Jayn hers.

    This is coming from trigger himself, so you know it's on par.

    Srsly, tho, tumblr threatened to "invade" 4chan (more like 4 really 'active' SJWs) and 4chan responded with a tiny fraction of their usual MO and now tumblr is freaking out as though this wasn't to be expected.
