Even Dissidia didn't have roles combined...it still had Paradigm shifts. So this is also relevant to my interests...Plus, getting both Lightning AND her armor? I'm so digging that. A lot. I had hoped they'd give us her, cause I just love that damn skirt. I WANT ONE. D:<

[MooMooJuice]

Crossing my fingers we might get some summons to play with? 0:

[Fallen Archangel Serenity]

I certainly hope so! She already demonstrated she can do it, why not under our control!

I think the closest we'll get to using any summons is having them as monsters. Which is a shame because I liked XIII summons. :c

[Absolute Claws]

She could only summon one Eidolon at a time, and other tiny useless monsters, so I'd say it'd probably be at best like the Serah + blegh vs Kain-Wannabe in that shadow place.

If XIII-3 really is on its way despite the mad risk they would be taking (since I'm not seeing any conclusions coming from these DLC Scenarios), I certainly hope they take the time to make it the best one yet. And a part of that is using the Luminous Engine to get rid of all the issues Crystal Tools has (lighting/shadows/rendering). This alone could make the XIII-universe so much bigger and prettier, and let them keep things non-linear without lag issues.

And have all the positives of both XIII and XIII-2, while mixing in new features. For example, Lightning's DLC Battle system seems almost like a preview for what XIII-3's could be like. :<

And we could easily have a full cast again with everyone but Serah... :c

We could definitely have Serah back as a cast member. Death isn't the end for Final Fantasy. We could easily go to the realm of the dead or some s**t to recover her soul.

To be honest, I'd rather have a XIII-3, because DLC is supposed to be extra stuff. I don't like the idea of a company making a game where the story is not even finished, unless it is followed by another game. $60 is already too much for a game in my opinion; making us spend more on DLC to finish the MAIN STORYLINE seems like kind of a ripoff. The Snow and Sazh episodes make sense, because they're not really a major part of this story, but I actually hope the Lightning DLC doesn't resolve anything and only provides insight into the game as a whole.

I don't mind at all if it still uses the monster system, I just want there to be summons.

And hey, the monster system would probably be better, anyway, 'cause then the summon can stay on the field the entire battle. (and I honestly can't see Lightning riding a motorcycle or a hot rod anyway)

And if it does it should be free, right?


I'm not expecting Lightning's DLC to resolve anything. I honestly don't think it will, either.

Though I do wonder whatever happened to Lindzei and Pulse. Was that ever explained in XIII? I never did fill out the datalog in that game..

I don't remember off the top of my head, but I read in on the wiki once. The datalog was a little too cryptic for me. sweatdrop

Just like everything else Toriyama writes, he comes up with great mysteries and grade A bullshit, and never resolves them, or simply says "No one knows how x y'd" in universe.

It's not uncommon in mythology for the gods or goddesses to have incomplete stories, and the Fabula Nova Crystallis never states what happens to Pulse or Lindzei either. As far as we know from released information, both Lindzei and Pulse seemingly disappeared never to be seen again. Naturally the fal'Cie felt abandoned.

This "Toriyama" excuse is getting dull and tiresome to read.
