The FF series have always had a special place in my heart, and i do highly enjoy XIII.yes the linearity kinda killed it but about 30 hours into it you got to branch out a bit. there really werent that many side quests which disappointed me. If you look at other FF games you have blitzball, cactuar games, card games, extreme caverns in which were perfect for leveling up, the list goes on. Now unless someone can correct me, the only real side quests in FFXIII are the marks. what a bore!
I found because of the voice acting, it took a little more for me to become acquainted with the characters. i found all of them to be important (aside from Sazh in many cases) and loved the music, graphics, and the story. Is it just me or are Fang and Vanille lesbians? I just wanted more side quests and odd jobs to fill in my time.
At this point in time i got stuck on one of the later marks, and just havent picked it back up for fear that i'll never beat that stupid mark (i forget which one at the moment). i was so excited to play that game when it came out that i played through it so fast and now barely remember the story and how it unfolded. It now just sits on my shelf like an old toy that i dont play with anymore. bummer..........im gonna play it tonight.
