I googled carbuncle and screamed
Why would anybody be so vague with what they input into the search bar? Sometimes you're asking for trouble.
"Carbuncle" "Final Fantasy" --- narrow that sucker down or something that will give you more accurate results!
In a way, I don't mind Carbuncle being in this game:
1.)
If you don't count the online FFs, Carbuncle hasn't been a summon in the series since FFIX. That's 16 years of Square thinking Carbuncle wasn't good enough for the offline mainline titles!
2.)
Fuck FFXIII and it's cocktease. I wasn't the only one fooled into seeing this online for the first time and saying, "Yeah, Carbuncle's BACK! Wonder what he'll turn into to and it will fight in battle?" I also felt the same about Ifrit and Siren. Dammit!!!
3.) Knowing that this is Carbuncle means we have yet to see FFXV's interpretation of a Moogle(which everybody thought THIS was).
