Fabula Nova Crystallis: Final Fantasy XIII Media and Information Thread

Joking aside, I think the designs for this installment look comparatively great. They echo 7, 8, and 10 quite strongly and those are easily the strongest installments in the series. I don't really care about nitpicking the graphics "issues" but I can imagine why people are doing it; because everyone wants to fucking play this game.

I mean, granted, Snow looks pretty much like Seifer spent some time at the Gym and put on a stupid hat, but I liked Seifer's design anyways. :lol I think Lightning really does give me that "female cloud" vibe; i.e. she looks strong, yet still feminine and attractive, and not in the "embarassing to play in front of my GF" way that X-2 did so "well." My GF asked me on seeing the trailer if Vanille was supposed to be fanservice, and I guessed yes, but the "SO KAWAIIIIIII" character is pretty stock in these sort of games.

Agito is going to be amazing and cannot come soon enough.

Yes, i think so too, considering the online features that will be implemented in the game, i would have loved ff13 to feature some sort of online co op component considering 2 of the 3 characters in the party are AI controlled

Ok so one Shiva is fucking the other Shiva, and that Shiva is fucking Snow... I bet they have dicks.

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiight.

WTF!!!!!

I bet Odin turns into a horse and Lighting must hang underneath him.
So now they're transsexual? Wow...
save that for the twisted fanarts
 
I sure hope this game has a romance subplot.

The reason being, romance subplots are the only way I can reserve 40 hours on the couch without my girlfriend bitching that I'm playing some boring game. :lol

I miss FFX's Shiva. Why mess with something that was so clearly perfect?

Personally I like FFVIII's version of Shiva the most, but FFX's is a close one. The Shivabike looks good and I didn't mind the sisters turning into a vehicle, but the position of them and how Snow sits is ehm...
 
Looking at the shiva bike disturbs me, as it reminds me of a creepy guro/freak h-manga where women are turned into household products and vehicles :S

I fear for the fanart that will be born from this >_>

On a lighter note, It'll be interesting to see Odin in horse form... and to find out exactly what in the world Carby's gestalt mode is :S

Maybe it latches onto Vanille's head and helps her glide around, lol.
 
Probably a scooter of some sort. Or she rides the disc like a skateboard.

Why are you all so shocked about this? We knew about the Shiva bike almost 2 years ago. I said it was retarded then, and I'll say it's retarded now, but we've had plenty of time for this to sink in.

It was fine (as "fine" as it could get anyway) until I realized that if you ride Shiva Bike, you're sitting on one sister's face and the other is staring right at you with this creepy blank stare.

It just made this idea, or at least this design, even dumber than it already was to me.

Hopefully Odin Horse doesn't have the entire body of a horse, but the face of a human man or something weird.
 
I have a question. Who is going to make the FF XIII official thread when it releases in Japan? Are you going to make a separate one when it releases in America or will it be the same thread? I'm for sure staying away from the official thread when the Japanese one releases so I won't get spoiled.

I was probably going to, both an import thread and a NA/EU release one. But both of those are a long way off.

Yea that's what made me think of the question. If you're doing 2 separate threads, then I'm ok with it. Can you like make the NA/EU release thread spoiler free so that the people who didn't play it won't be spoiled? Also, are you going to play both versions?

Yes and yes.
