The boss fights are still tedious as gently caress, though. The stagger system is such a terrible concept, it turns every fight into a huge drag.

ImpAtom posted:The stagger system is straight-up the best idea a FF combat system had in a long time. It actually helps with a lot of problems FF games traditionally have. On the other hand, it means earlier bosses are all identical because you just cast magic until they stagger and then hit them a bunch. For examples see the big flan boss in ff13-2 which can barely hurt you but still is boring to actually fight.

ImpAtom posted:That is because FFXIII-2 had significantly worse design that de-emphasizes interesting stagger mechanics. (Which is one of the reasons I'm not fond of it despite it having other mechanical improvements.) FFXIII's bosses actually were a bit more varied because most of them were a tutorial for a specific mechanic. How is ff133?

Rianlee posted:I like serious RPGs, like having storyline relevant party members, and hate having monsters as party members, since they're rarely relevant to the story. It seems that FF13-2 and FF13-3 are not for me. 13-3 has no party members at all except magical mary sue lightning also the demo has sold me on it, the combat is so much better goddamn

They could hire some artists to draw the prerendered backdrops at a higher resolution. That'd be neat.

To be fair if you could make millions by doing no work at all why the gently caress would you not?

Evil Fluffy posted:Maybe SE will decide to do a port of SaGa Frontier for PSN/Vita and as an added bonus they'll go back in and finish the game so we can play Fuse's storyline, and Lute's will be longer than 5 minutes. Lute's story was probably never planned to be that long, honestly. All the SaGa games have a character with no story events, so that you can move on to the nonlinear stuff as quickly as possible. There's a character in the PS2 Romancing Saga whose entire storyline is that she danced at a bar once. Fuse, on the other hand, we got screwed out of.

TARDISman posted:Lute's story was pretty much that, hell according to official timelines, his is finished last because he's recruitable in everyone else's story. drat shame about Fuse, Asellus and anyone else in that game with bits cut from their story. Come to think of it, I think the three complete stories were Blue, Red, and Riki. So cool, awesome, and a waste of goddamn time. Fuckin' Riki. The Armic of Saga Frontier. But did you ever play Romancing Saga PS2? That's a good game, but I think people passed it over because Unlimited Saga was... Unlimited Saga.

Xad posted:So I've been playing FFXIII a bit more, and I don't get all the confusion with the fal'Cie, l'Cie, Cie'th that everyone and their dog kept complaining about in the thread. I don't remember if they explain what a fal'Cie is, but they pretty clearly say multiple times in cutscenes that a l'Cie is someone given a quest by a fal'Cie, and if you gently caress it up you turn into a Cie'th. They even conveniently explain that Serah turns into a crystal because she didn't gently caress up, very soon after you see it happen. I guess I was just expecting the plot to be a lot more confusing? Did you mean the inexplicable Australian yet? Because she is the best character. Hope is the worst, which is why he has a significant side part in 13-2 and is your Otacon in 13-3 while Sazh just cries a bunch instead

I think it's pretty funny that Lightning's MO in Lightning Returns is to just beat people up because the world's ending anyway. People will gibe you quests to just straight up drive species to extinction and she doesn't even care

Aurain posted:Shamefully, if I get LR for PC, this is one of the first things I hope people mod away. If I'm going to accessorise, I can't be having those neon pink eye sores ruining my efforts. If lightning doesn't look like a crazy woman you're not doing it right.

Suikoden Tactics is really good, by the way. It's a shame that it's tied to the rpg with the worst world map of all time, Suikoden "let's ride a loving boat" 4

Nah, just make sure you save before you start a level since some are two-part (with a save point in the middle) and if you get halfway and then realize the second part is too tough at the moment, if you can't reload to right before you started you'll probably be pretty mad.

I liked that in ff13-3 lightning gets really sick of caius's whining and just leaves, because those were my feelings as well.

Artix posted:The 13-2 preload is up on Steam, somehow they've taken an 8GB game on consoles and made it 28. It's probably like the PC FF13 where they rerendered all the fmvs to be higher resolution. 13-2 on consoles has really fuckin lovely quality FMVs (partly because there are so many of them and partly because the game runs at like 400p) so it is honestly a good choice on their part.

dMastri posted:Nah PC only. Still no console though I may finally bite the bullet and grab a PS4 next month. 4 mostly is just fantasy. However, 6 is where the strange steampunkish future fantasy thing started in the series, though not to the same degree as 7 and the later ones. It's pretty solid. Though 8, for all that the gameplay and story is completely retarded in many ways, is absolutely not a traditional fantasy game. So you might like it, I don't know, but I didn't. It's very... experimental. Though 13-2 is coming to PC soon, so you could try that. Do not play ff13-1 under any circumstances.

Gambits would have improved 13 immensely. You already spend most battles hitting auto battle, so letting me set up how to act in fully automatic would have been much better. Maybe have separate gambit lists for each paradigm?

Madmarker posted:Yeah, unfortunately for me, my computer is a piece of crap, and I'm not sure it would handle it. Can you patch the game disk somehow to run the IZJS version of an American PS2 in English or is that not a thing that can happen? You could mod your console.
