And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?

God Noel's swords look ridiculous... as is Serah's costume.
But I suppose it's not Final Fantasy without ridiculous weapons and costumes.

Kay sent.
Oh and I knew that, but If there is anything more to her in the next game (With the time travel thing). She can't be swept under the rug and forgotten for good now can she? ;_;

Keep in mind anyway that the Invisible World (/Valhalla) is a sort of after-world, so it could be that some previous characters make an appearance in there as dead souls.

are you actually giving him hope?! While there's nothing wrong with that and I applaud you for for doing so but I don't mean to sound like an ass but I'd say expect the worst if I were him.
/pessimism.

I think it will be pretty similar this time. It's on one disc as well.

I don't see reasons to put Jihl back anyway, unless they want to recycle her model to make this time a real use of her. Still, she wasn't an important character and I doubt she's going to be one in here now. I'm just telling to everyone that, being the Valhalla the place where deads go, some surprise could be hiding in there

Yeah, and LPCM audio.
You can make it out here.
Yay! My $3000+ sound system is crying in joy.

Not sure who's doing it in the US, but in Canada if you pre-order from Future Shop's web site they include a separate steel book (whether it's actually nicer than the CE digipack, well...)

I guess I'll be playing this game... (because my boyfriend is getting it and we'll be playing it together.)
It's weird, I actually enjoyed the first game but I haven't really been hyped for this one at all (probably because Noel and Serah as the main characters just... doesn't do anything for me. I didn't hate Serah but I didn't love her either. She wasn't exactly a strong presence. And Noel... I'm not getting into that.)
But well, I'll see how it goes.

A Final Fantasy game that takes over 30 hours? NO WAI!!!!
Seriously, people are shocked? 30-40 hours is about par for the course. Sometimes it's even shorter. I think FFX is possible at around 20 hours.
Oh, and apparently FFIX is doable in, wasn't it 12 hours to get that sword or something?
FF9 is beatable in 12 hours but that isn't an easy thing to do I believe.
Man after seeing this thread I went and started my 3rd FF13 playthrough lol.
As I thought: the prologue up until you get Paradigms is an hour long if you skip cutscenes and some battles.

I'm really curious to hear about the platform comparisons.

I had a $10 off promo code for FS so I just pre-ordered the CE from FS. I can probably buy the rest of the pre-order DLC for less than $10 anyway so I think it's the best deal for me. Plus I get the steel book

Yep. In 2 months, people will be complaining that it's too open.

Lol. That's certainly possible.
The last direct FF sequel, FFX-2, was very open too.... in a way that was both really good, and also kind of irksome, if you're attracted to the traditional one-way narrative of an FF game.

This game is gonna be very good. I think they git it right this time.
Also I was hoping for a more interesting title like:
FINAL FANTASY XIII-2 |OT| Finally some Hope inside on a Lightning of quality.

FFX-2 is beatable in like 20 hours, or even less, although you might to try and reach the ending in 10 hours so the suffering ends sooner.
Of course that excluded all side-quests, I assume something similar happens in this case.

100%-ing FFX-2 takes a long, long, time.
There were a lot of alternate paths/scenes and sidequests, some of which were very easy to miss completely if you weren't playing with a FAQ.
One of the reasons I've been optimistic about XIII-2 from the start is that in retrospect X-2 was one of the most enjoyable games in the entire franchise from an extra content standpoint. The main storyline was certainly not the best part of the package.

That's still a decent chunk of time. FFXIII took me 39 hours or so to beat.
Nice OP! Very hyped for this title.
Yeah. 30-40 is a decent length.
It took me much longer to beat FFXIII. I was done at around 80, and it took 120 to platinum.
Did you do any of the optional stuff, or just straight story?

Did a handful of the optional stuff but said "fuck it" after five missions in or so. There really wasn't any point since you couldn't really use any of the stuff until after you beat the main story.
Wish this was coming out in the US in December. Would of made a nice Christmas present.

Well I got the perfect ending in that game. The bigger problem was, if you skipped a cutscene, you were pretty much screwed from getting a 100% completion.

Is it really necessary to spoiler-block FFXIII in this thread?
