Would play multiple times.

This is the best thing I have seen come out of this game so far. Must find a bigger version.

This will never happen as all new FF games are always going to be divisive.

True.

No new Suikoden, no Classic Sonic spinoff series, no new Shadow Hearts, no western version of Bravely Default, no 20th anniversary FF5 game...

I would forget about them and try to look forward to something else. That's what I'm doing to Type 0, Fate/EXTRA CCC, and Senran Kagura Burst, forgetting about them.

Same. That is uber sexy right there. The ultimate combination of two great franchises. SE and Ubisoft need to sit down and talk out some agreement on having this as an alt for Lightning in this game.

They're probably building this poorly to make it on par with Versus XIII. I understand now SE, you can't fool me.

Ah, so people truly do want a complete Assassin's Creed outfit for Lightning.

Too bad that there isn't a lot to look forward to on my end, though part of that is due to cynicism or games that don't focus on stuff that I wish they'd focus on.
 

ULTROS!

People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.

I won't be surprised if we get a Mass Effect Lightning for FFXIII-4: Lightning's Final Final Journey.

Absolutely. Assassin's Creed is a fantastic series
haven't played AC3 yet

Try playing games you never would of played before. It will open your eyes to some stuff you never thought you'd like.

It's always darkest before the dawn Schala.

Now that Dikembe has saved the world the future should be brighter.
For friendshiiiiiiip...

I did when I played something that completely turned me off to the RPG genre for the better part of a year or so.

At least most of the platformers I've played this gen were cool.

I won't be surprised if we get a Mass Effect Lightning for FFXIII-4: Lightning's Final Final Journey.
But her default outfit reminds me of a ME outfit.

Her current default one already looks like a cross between AssCreed and Mass Effect. I wouldn't be surprised if Toriyama requested something along those lines since he thinks appealing to fans of that franchise is the best way to go.

You mean "Lightnings back: Final Fantasy Versus XIII" right? ;)

That's probably why Versus is taking so long, they need Light to be the star of Versus as well. Maybe they won't release Type 0 in the west until they find some place to shoehorn her into it as an extended/remix of Type 0?

Someone's going to kill me for that comment right? :( I'm sorry

Lightning and Versus XIII should NEVER be allowed in the same sentence. EVER! :p

Hey DJNoc, I bet you Wada will force Nomura to put Lightning in Versus XIII in some way, shape or form.

I guess he did something right as I am a fan of the AC series too.

We're not doing this. Really?

Because some of the fetishism is starting to get a little... weird. I think we're done here.

I wonder how do you get the other costumes in this game. Do you buy them from Chocolina? Do you get them from certain boss drops? Or do you get them during certain story segments? I'm curious.

You probably unlock them via Crystarium if I had to guess. But there will probably be the "special" ones to buy or to unlock via missions or something.

Well I'm glad you like that in the Atelier games, because its all there is to them. :lol

But yeah, I just hope they never come back to that terrible upgrading system from XIII. Thats was SO bad, I can't even describe it. But since it was not in XIII-2 I have hope.

Probably buy the equipment from various shops.

I mostly like the series for it's slice of life feel with the story and characters than it's gameplay. The name Esty Dee still cracks me up.

I agree, that upgrading stuff in XIII was pretty meh. I don't think I upgraded anything throughout my entire playthrough. I doubt they would do something like that for LR.

Probably buy the equipment from various shops.

From what I've seen in the trailers, Chocolina is going to be the various shops. I don't mind though, she is pretty goofy.

I feel her outfit becomes pretty badass if you change the color of the cloth portions to black.

Game definitely looks mediocre as a whole. Don't know what's wrong with Square this gen, they've consistently underwhelmed on a technical level.

Looks better than her in-game FFXIII model, and that's a tad sad considering it's Skyrim.
Until you see her move.
