i didnt know you liked it so much darth... i personally think that it was about an 8 maybe 7.5, and i think FF12 was a superior game. didnt really think Lighting or Fang were that good, they were just OTT, not realistic enough like Fran or Ashe, imo. i thought the characters in 13 were an evolution of FF10 characters, who i really didnt like. anyway i could go on and on about why i thought 12 was better, but i wont, the music was incredible thou, really good.

does anyone else dislike the way the Kitase is taking the series. i mean in FF13 we do walk foward - battle - cutscene, repeat. i think there were far too many cutscenes, about 6 hours worth. i think there are more ways to tell a story, and gameplay is one of them.

Because I liked it much better than FF12, looking at many user review averages across the net (including this sites) I'm clearly not the only one.

FF13 was much better than FF12 in its story, battle system, character development, world/lore. And battle cut scene repeat isn't a problem because I love the battle system and I am invested in the story/characters

And again I did state in my post but due to that replay value is cut down by a lot.

And FF13 is Toriyama's game, not Kitase's, you have a misconception there.

Kitase's FF's were FF6/7/8 (he directed those FF's).

Toriyama's FF's were FFX/X-2/XIII (he directed those FF's).

Some of those were co-directed darth I think, atleast Toriyama's maybe some of kitase's too.

Wait who the hell directed 9? Matsuno directed 12? and Sakaguchi Directed 1-5
