FF XIII

[Excalibur]

I should be delivered by today so I can play it by tomorrow.. Who else will play the Final Fantasy 13?

[Nynaeve]

I have it pre-ordered. I just feel bad picking it up. I don't even have time to play White Knight Chronicles, but I really want this - just no extra $$ right about now. Might have to turn in a few games if I do get it.

[Excalibur]

since I formated my hard disc of the PS3 I don't play White Knight Chronicles anymore. I also lost my save games of Dantes Inferno
But I am anxious for FF XIII. I should have it in my mailbox today

[Excalibur]

boah... what I have seen so far, the game is amazing.. I like the style of the battles, I love the graphics, the story appeares also very interesting and the gameplay is cool.. the only drawback I have encountered so far is the camera control. It reacts to sensitiv for me. Maybe it can be configured. I have to check that out.

[Nynaeve]

Ok because GameStop is running an awesome deal on tradeins I got the game wihout havin to use cash.

I LOVE it. The controls are amazingly intuitive and the story is interesting (moms are strong!!!) and he graphics are gorgeous. Agree about the camera...but I don't see where to change the speed it moves??

[Excalibur]

I guess there is no option to change the sensitivity of the camera controls.

Wait until you progress.. the story gets much more intense. The battle improve later on and.. and.. I don't want to spol

[Nynaeve]

I adore this game. it's my favorite of ALL the FF I have played lately - I'm just coming up to getting the first summons, I think. I think it's incredibly intuitive to build your characters, and I love how to move through the paradigms for the battles...

If only I had more free time! =(

[Riel]

Loving it also...some chapter where better then others,some of the forced 2 character segments in Chapter 5 with Saszh and Vanille mostly,where a little too long for my taste but chapter 7 was amazing...i am now on Gran Pulse,where it opens up a bit...graphics are insane,I like the cast of characters,the voice acting,except for Vanille who is a little too cheerfully at times I think,are amazing,I love Fang`s voice and Lightning..Saszh is well done also.

[Nynaeve]

Seriously, Vanille is gonna get punched in the head soon - her chirpy uberhappy voice is like fingernails on a chalkboard, or chewing on tinfoil. *shudder* And the mom in me wants to slap Hope upside the head - seriously, stop whining kid! Otherwise, I love the characters. I'm far behind you guys, just got Shiva, and I'm on to the part where Hope just joined up with Vanille and Mr. Chocobo-head. =)

It's weird compared to other FF - there's no "grinding" to be done, cause you don't/can't level up - it's INCREDIBLY linear, at least thus far - I kinda like it, it makes me feel I'm moving along quickly in the game, you know?

[Excalibur]

yeah.. the game creates that impression of fast progress.. but believe me, you are not
Can't tell more.. otherwise I will spoil.. sorry Nyn

[Nynaeve]

OK I got to play quite a bit yesterday, and the fight for Odin was the hardest one so far, but it only took me 3 tries. =) I'm going to get a lot of time to play tomorrow I think, with everyone else in the family working...I really want to see what happens - it's like having a book that I can only read from time to time, just as the story gets good!

[Nynaeve]

I'm in Chapter 7, and realizing I totally suck at the fights when you can use the Summons. Still...loving this game. =)

I'm in Chapter 7, and realizing I totally suck at the fights when you can use the Summons. Still...loving this game. =)

Do you use it that often? I summond the elders about 3 times now..

[Nynaeve]

No...cause when I do, I feel like I don't know what I'm doing. I've used Shiva once, and Odin once for the training thing.

Getting really good at the whole Paradigm thing.

[Excalibur]

yeah.. the paradigm fight style is crazy I really love it.. later on, you can configure the paradigms and much later on you even can group your party as you like to. I hope this did not spoil your game too much :shrugs:
