Final Fantasy XIII-2 Feb DLCs: Serah/Noel Costumes, Sazh Gambling DLC

Thirteen flew over the cuckoo's nest
Seems like it would be such a better use of my money than buying a SECOND copy of Xenoblade. I mean, really, what the hell am I smoking? I'm such an idiot.

And when Monolith and Nintendo will charge you for DLCs with their next games on 3DS and Wii U, what will you do? Change opinion or abandon gaming? It's pretty clear that at this point there's no turning back: this is the industry now and in future it'll be even more extreme. Square Enix actually, it's six years late.
 
According to the game's credits, those DLC costumes were designed by Toshiyuki Itahana, the character designer of the Crystal Chronicles series and director of The Crystal Bearers.

This one is not bad at all, kind of a version of Lightning's outfit, same gloves, same arm covering thingies, same thigh pack etc. The parting at the waist is crap, but alas.

lol what I don't get about those costumes is how that blue/black one is meant to be more skin showing. The red riding hood is def way more. . . and that's also what japan voted for to top it off XD
 
I don't know why I haven't gotten around to buying myself a copy of XIII-2 yet. Seems like it would be such a better use of my money than buying a SECOND copy of Xenoblade. I mean, really, what the hell am I smoking? I'm such an idiot.

bwahahaha oh please stop overreacting.

A true better use of your money would be to save it for something else rather than buying DLC if thats against your way of thinking or buying a second copy of a game you already have and you know this.

Edit:

BTW guys XIII-2 Light/Amodar DLC was the most sold DLC on PSN last week....saw that on PSN DLC charts on Eurogamer.

yeah i actually would pay 3 euro on that costume. It looks kinda FF-esque, much more than her default costume at least

Are there any J-GAFfers who could help me get some credit? I've seen people offer in other threads, but I can't remember who :(

Just started playing this game (in the Bresha Ruins, AF 5) and am having a blast. Just give us some Sazh and it'll be perfect.

(Oh, and my vote is for the red-and-white Serah. Or just give us her outfit from the first game.)

I wish they'd hurry up with the other costume DLCs. I am afraid I won't have the motivation to play the game anymore once I finish it and especially after Mass Effect 3 comes out.
 
I don't suppose Sazh's scenario gets any regular gameplay (battles and such), does it? It's just the card games? I really don't want to spend money on more awful Serendipity minigames, but I'll spend the money and slog through the card games just to get playable Sazh... argh.
 
I was afraid the Sazh DLC would suck, but it sounds even worse than I feared.

From GameInformer:
Today Square Enix released what was supposed to be the first story-centric DLC episode – but anyone hoping for meaningful contribution to the game's plot is in for a spectacular disappointment.

First of all, if you were hoping that the DLC episodes would somehow shed more light on the game's bizarre ending, you should check your expectations now.
Calling Sazh's DLC outing (officially entitled Heads or Tails) a "story" is overly charitable; it's a few lines of dialogue stretched over more awful casino action.


Full review here.

Sazh deserves better. :(
 
I can't get over how scrawny Serah looks. It's FF, I know, but damn.

She has the same general proportions as an anime character, and this is highly problematic in a game where everyone is modeled in 3D when everybody else has normal proportions. Lightning had the same problem, hence the toothpick-legs on both Lightning and her little sister.

I "bought" the Serah bikini anyways. And by "bought" I mean I used part of that free $5.99 Video Unlimited credit that was floating around a few months back which I've had sitting in my wallet all this time.
