Yeah, and there would have to be physical enemies that required tactics other than "spam -aga" to beat. Blind+poison them, and take care of the caster before you clean them up.

mhhh english voices, so far for me:
Lightning: perfect
Serah: good
Snow: good most of the time (romantic scene kinda meh)
Hope: a bit strange/ sounds too old
Vanille: good (for such a cheerful character)
Sazh: good
Rosch: kinda bad (the loud parts sound like a generic bad guy + forced voice)
Jihl: good
hot new chick: wtf, the accent, she's ruined? D:
So I prefer Snow, Hope, Rosh and new chick in the Japanese VA.
Lightning, Vanille and most of all Sazh in the English VA
Serah and Jihl both sound like they should (based on my impression of the characters) in both versions.
also the "oh, ah, uh"s sound more natural in the Japanese VA :lol
I'm not so sure about the actual script, seems to be very different sometimes from the original (I base that on the gametrailer subbed version which I assume was translated more directly). Some lipsyncing-problems, especially in the romantic scene at the beginning (e.g. when Snow's laughing, sounds like his mouth should be wide open. He's not really laughing in the Japanese VA)
btw I don't get the scene when Serah is captured or something, she did it on purpose while still reaching for Snow? May be a cut.

As much as I hate soap opera drama, I'm still pissed that so many people are bitching about it as if it's something new to the series. :/

Honestly, those complaining that about the soap opera drama either are wearing rose tinted glasses or have just not thought about what FF (at least all the 3D ones) are like at times.

Yep you're right but it is pretty annoying in FF VIII right now but I'm hoping they don't fuck it up in FF XIII.Fimbulvetr said:
Anyways, it's nice to go back On-topic! I hope you all learned a lesson while I was gone.

...wut
Anyways. I think Kingdom Hearts is actually a pretty fine indicator of the type of drama we'll be seeing. Just more "mature". Or at least harder to decipher
More specifically, plenty of one liners and "...I loved her..." stuff

Well most of the people who are complaining are the ones who thought that XII was a step forwards. Simply put, people who are not big JRPG fans seem to be the ones bitching about the drama the most.
The more info that is revealed, the more my friends bitch about the series taking a step back from XII. You can hear that reaction from many journalists in the west as well.

I think we will see more drama in FF Versus XIII.

Oh, see, I like triangle spam... but I've only liked it in Drakengard 2, because it juggles your enemies so you can rape them in the air.lorddarkflare said:

One good thing I can say is that it isn't nearly as frustrating as some other game's QTEs are.

Yes Versus is sure to have drama.

Yeah Kagari, the 360 can play MP4s so you don't need to do anything.
Tbh, I'm not sure if I'm sarcastic anymore but I actually wanted to see how it was.No_Style said:

Both videos are from the same version, just saying. I watched both and all the battle/field footage is the same. English version is probably from the latest build and made after the Japanese one from what it sounds like though based on comments made by SE PR persons.
C button! lol

If that stays the same when the game releases in NA and EU, I will try to avoid this thread as much as possible. xD Oh how much I hope that both console versions are exactly the same.Synless said:

Which journalists are bitching? And are we talking about story or the whole game? I haven't really heard anyone bitching about it being a step back gameplay wise outside of the people that thought of XII as the only good game in the series.
