She should be attacking from different axes. That's what I was thinking it should have been. Attacking from different axes, hitting different parts of the body to fell the beasts, finding a weak point on them as opposed to just hitting them right in the face. Part of it feels like a "press buttons until it goes down" strategy rather than taking a more intuitive role in combat in terms of evasive action, having a defense be a good offense, etc. It's bugging me a lot.I mentioned this to Schala, but for all that talk of being able to freely control Lightning in battle, that combat is looking really damn Semi-Auto. Why does Lightning just let herself get hit by the Behemoth without guarding or moving out of the way? All of the attacks she does are her running towards her opponent in a straight line until she gets close enough to attack and fighting everything face to face instead of flanking or from behind.
Koko, you should've known better than to google that... :|-googles-
That's a paradigm?One of her "Paradigms" has an evade option. I'm betting that evade option is just the flip she usually does after completing an attack sequence. From the trailer, it seems like it is just the XIII battle system only slightly more streamlined.

Sometimes I feel like they think the western audience is incredibly shallow and generally want a homogenized set of games when variety and sticking to your own design philosophy is best.
Wow... that trailer (rubs eyes)
I hope that's not indicative of the final product. If it is, no wonder they've removed the trailer from GT

Good lord. I thought this sort of thing would be assigned to a button!
Same deal though. Weren't we going on the assumption that you'd be able to have free control over Lightning's movement? As it is, it's basically XIII/XIII-2 without the menus and attack queue. That sounds even worse in my head.
Yoshida got you covered.

They removed the trailer from GT because the embargo isn't up until Friday.
So question. If Jump is a JP event...why was the trailer in English?

I'm feeling really alienated by all this backlash for this costume, seriously.
How is this worse than the stuff i've seen from FFXIII and FFXIII-2? I'm thinking about the dude with the blue pants or the girl with the pink hair, for example.

Her designs were more cohesive in XIII/XIII-2 imo.

I dunno man, it's pretty fucking stupid. It gets worse the more you try to rationalize it.
If you're referring to Serah and Noel in XIII-2 those were pretty fucking stupid too. XIIIs casts clothing didn't look all that bad
This is easily the worst design this universe has shitted out
Could you be more hyperbolic?
Type 0>Lightning Returns
By far.
Great, would you lend me your copy of LR? I'm dying to play it.
I'm after you then.Great, would you lend me your copy of LR? I'm dying to play it.

She looks over designed in LR.
I wonder what Toriyama requested lightning to look like this time.
Eh, i think her weapon looks horrendous in all three designs, but her clothes, the first one looks more like a normal outfit, although it's full of bullshit details as seen in many Japanese chara designs (5 gloves, 300 puches and belts etc) the second and third one look more like (ultra) stylized combat vests/armors, the third one being more on the futuristic side (which in turn make her look more dynamic and agile) it has even a bit of a The Cell horror vibe, with that black leather.
I can totally understand not liking it as it's pretty dumbass, but it seems to me like on par with the other two.
Having not played the games, maybe in the context of the game it doesn't make any sense, though.
You can't have it.
It's all mine. GILGAMESH is in it.
I will treasure it forever.
Goddess Lightning and GILGAMESH KING OF HEROES JOIN FORCES!
WOOO!!
Can you be serious at all? I'm starting to doubt.
Oh, and you can have your "copy", just try not to lose it like you seem to have lost your sense of humor.
