WOW....I just looked at the map system in the link, why even have a map when its that linear? u cant get lost....this wat happens when ur story is to grandiose for its own good...same thing happened in Xenogears

I don't understand how you can have a complaint about a game and then compare it to the greatest RPG ever?  It just doesn't make sense. 

OT: I think we need to wait for the game to be out more than 1 day before we come to our final conclusion.

uuuhhhhh simple..there both linear!?

Really, I never noticed, I was too busy getting my ass kicked by the greatest RPG story ever.  I guess you didn't understand it, you might need to play it again.  And last I checked, there was quite a lot I could do in Xenogears before going back the the main story.  I don't call that linear, but that depends on your own personal definition of "quite a lot" and "linear".

And how are they both linear?  FFXIII hasn't even been out for more than a day.  Let's wait until someone finishes the game before we come to a conclusion. 

 

are you brain dead?...I am taking about XENOGEARS being a completely linear game, this is the second time you veered off any onto a different topic, XENOGEARS had like 3 sidequest( which was accessed at last part of the game) it was point A to point B the whole entire game, which was worsened on the second disk, maybe you need to play it again... im not knocking XENOGEARS at all,I agree awesome story, it was just very Linear due to its engrossing grandiose story
