  • Final Fantasy XIII-2 Rumored

    See link below:

    'Somebody' acquires domain for Final Fantasy XIII-2- Destructoid

    Warning: End-game Final Fantasy XIII spoilers below, and probably for the rest of the thread.

    Personally, I would love a sequel, however I'm not sure how they would use magic anymore considering they've lost their "focus" which initially gave them their powers.

    Hopefully we'll get to run around as Lightning in a skimpy outfit singing pop songs to keep the people of Pulse from fighting each other.

    That doesn't mean they couldn't be given another focus.

      True... but from whom? Well I guess it would be from the Pulse fal'Cie, since all the Cocoon ones are dead.

      Thinking about that ending again makes me angry. It could've been so much better... but they had to go and Deus Ex it. Maybe they could redeem themselves in a sequel, or maybe that's just my inner fanboy crying for something good to come out of a sequel to an ultimately disappointing game.

          I'm not cynical about a sequel given the hell the original team had to go through from going from a PS2 game to a PS3 game and the budget being shot to hell over those points alone.

          I'm cynical about Kitase touching the story - or any FF story - again. People have grown out of the teen melodramas, its even starting to be the case in JRPGs. When I have what is a teen drama in Persona 4 treating people with the intelligence of an adult, its time to change with the times. Even Kingdom Hearts gives the player some fucking credit and Dragon Quest always has.

            That's true, BBQ. And Dak, it's not like I hated the game, I was just disappointed it didn't have a better story in the end, and that some of the locations weren't more explorable.

            I really enjoyed the battle system and I actually liked the characters, so overall I liked it, but still, was disappointed.

              but their brands are gone (watch ending), they are no longer L'Cie.

              Unless they are now regular humans with L'Cie powers, minus the brand and curse.

                    And? Didn't the Japanese chick and Australian chick both have focuses that they completed, thus turning them to crystal, before being awoken from the crystal for another focus?

                    I never finished FFX-2, did they ever find Tidus? Maybe in FFXIII-2 they'll keep looking for him. He's got to be around here, somewhere.

                        Even if you do ever finish, you’ll probably have to play 3 more times to get 100% completion

                          .

                          Ya but they always had their brands, mew. The other 4 had no brands anymore. Well maybe a Pulse Fal'Cie will sneak brands back on them or something and they will be like "Oh right we have to beat up all the Pulse Fal'Cie to stop this from happening again."

                          The 4 survivors have a big difference from Vanille and Fang, their crystallization must have lasted no longer than a day, compared to Vanille and Fang who I think were asleep for centuries. That plus their brands are gone, well the only way they can be L'Cie again is if a new Fal'Cie puts brands on them. That might be the only way to use magic again, mew, or maybe they kept their powers? So they are now more than L'Cie?

                          They still have to rescue Vanille and Fang.

                            While you have a point, Jenova, in saying they could try to free Vanille and Fang from the crystal, I doubt that would be the focus of the story. I'm pretty sure they're the ones keeping the crystal there, and hence, keeping Cocoon from crashing into Pulse.

                            Something I'd like to see in a sequel is some story involving the actual creators of the fal'Cie. There's a lot of good material there that is only hinted at in the first game and that you have to dig to find. I'd love to have a Final Fantasy where you end up fighting the gods. That would be sick.

                            Buuuuuut knowing SquE it'll be a story about friendship and love and how if you believe in yourself enough you can transform into Ragnarok and save the world.

                              So the ending to FFXIII was Persona 3?
