Final Fantasy XIII-2 not having any of the old playable characters, including Fang and Vanille (for the pervs who wanted them..), Snow is in your party in one of the places you can go. I haven't played far enough to know if Fang or Vanille is playable, or even Sazh.
You play as Lightning in the beginning.
But yeah..
Snow is technically in your party, but you have no control over him and you can't choose his paradigms. But, he fights alongside you, and don't b***h about it because he is VERY strong, he's just as strong as your characters. Well.. If you've leveled them up alot like I have.
So yeah. Be happy.
And just so you know... It's better than Final Fantasy XIII, in all aspects. Even the music is captivating, I love it. Sometimes I pause the game and just listen to the music.. Yeah, it's that good.

o_o 13-2 is poo. They've gone too far away from the original ways of FF games to begin with. Don't get me wrong, I like some of the new stuff, but other stuff (ie. the mog battle thing) is freaking weird in 13-2. Also, Serah is a dumb main character. e_e;

i agree with you a little bit on Serah xD the mog battle thing is uhm.. i dunno, but moogles are cute though, so xD but uhm.. anyways. i thought it was overall great.
the reason why they've strayed so far from what they originally did for FF games, is because first of all, Japan has a completely different taste in gaming than us, so they have to figure out what we'll like. So fans go and tell them stuff, and they go off of what the fans say because thats all the information they really have on what we like, besides with working with Game companies here to help them out a little bit. So.. they've gotten confused over the years on what we want. They'll get it sooner or later though. I think in a way, they have gotten better, even if it's just by a little bit, because this game was soooo much better than FF13.

I know, and I can appreciate what they're trying to do and what they've done for 13-2. I'm glad you didn't take my whole blurb as like a mega insult to the game. I'm still a fan of the series, and I don't hate 13-2, i'm just a bit disappointed. I did play the demo and to me the mog thing was weird (though I agree they're mega cute) and I didn't understand the new crystarium (was a bit iffy on it inn 13 as well, but I adjusted.) Just don't get me started on Serah. My god. stressed
Screw XIII-2.

I'm playing Tales instead.

lol it's ok ^_^
me too.
i played the demo first, and it's a bit different than the demo but not by much. the mog thing is still the same, but i like being able to get a preemptive strike every time xD well.. not every time, but if i hit the monster. it took me a bit to figure out the crystarium but it's quite easy. although.. i did like the one in 13 better.
lmao i know, right? xD she's ok at some points but.. she can get annoying. i do like, however, at some points you can choose what she says. i have fun with that cat_cool

Tales is a great series. Too bad not very many people agree.


No no...People would agree...If it actually left Japan.

Thank God Namco finally learned that Tales has better potential than most of their other games.

Yes. Yes I have. The story was confusing, the gameplay more so, most of the characters in XII weren't playable anymore and the list goes on....


At least X-2 kept Yuna and Rikku.


Back to the Tales series for me! Maybe I can finish Innocence by midterms.

That's the point. It isn't considered popular enough to leave Japan, mainly. It doesn't get as much hype as it really deserves. Then again, not much does get a lot of hype aside from..oh, you guessed it.. CALL OF DUTY. Or FPS games in general nowadays.

Nope. Namco decided randomly that most of the Tales series aren't leaving Japan or at least properly.

If ToI F fares well, we'll also get ToG f and more.

i didn't find it confusing xD it's only confusing if the choices you make don't match up. i hate how everyone complains about that x.x it's not so bad having new playable characters.
but X-2 did require having Yuna in it, and i suppose Rikku to add a sense of comedy to it, and Paine to just.. i dunno lol but yeah, it balanced it. but.. not every game will continue to have the same characters.
lol i'm saving up for Tales of Graces F, so, i cant buy Innocence cat_sweatdrop i wanted to though.

I just really miss Lightning. She was a good main character, imo. >:
The crystarium is easy? Gosh, it confused me so much. ;_; I was like crying while playing the demo. I had no idea wtf was going on with my ravager role when I upgraded the commando one.

The new main character, the guy, was very confusing.

I'm buying both. It's more fun that way.

Also, did you know that ToX beat XIII-2 in sales in Japan?
