This is by far the worst thing about the game... for a game that took +5 years of dev time, hell even 3 if some want to call it that, the time span is pathetic.

I forget who said it exactly, but my gamestop dudes said it correctly, compared to other JRPG's this gen and other FF's, FFXIII is an and i freaking quote... "ON RAILS GAME" the gameplay is trash because its to simple for this gen and there weren't enough mini games.

It's a good final fantasy game, i myself put it above the almighty FFVI along with FFI, FFVIII, FFIX and even FFXII... but VII, X, and II are far better FF's imo. for there time they were the best.

But don't worry... Square may not let us down this gen in the grand scale of things... with that said... Need a lift buddy? http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=104556&page=2

lol, that sure changed. You're back on the wagon of XIII sucks!

It'll be much worse, but that's beside the point. 

You just said the gameplay is trash. That's a pretty big statement to make me believe that you don't like the game.

huh? i could careless what your average Versus hater has to say but im curious why you'd be so iffy towards it... ima ask you on your wall.

It is trash, rubish, scrap, but that doesn't mean i didn't like it, games can be really good and have crap gameplay, look at Team ICO's games...

40 HOURS and it not my fault that you are not allowed to do anything than continuing the story for the 10/13 chapters the game has fast-paced story nothing like the big XII or even X



Seraphic_Sixaxis on 26 March 2010

really? i heard roughly 80hrs for gameplay and +200hrs with sidequest XD i must be reading stuff wrong then.

 

I have only 2 more side quests to do and I'm at the 60 hour mark, after that there is nothing except for silly amounts of grinding to be fully upgraded with all weapons, but then there is only 1 enemy aside from the 2 side quests (1 enemy of which I already killed randomly outside the quest) to fight, defeating the point of leveling up more unless I want the trophies.

 

To compare by this point in FF XII I hadn't even finished the main story...

That doesnt seem as long as i expected.  Are the side quest fairly linear as people say about the levels? lol
