You didn't even beat the tutorial and couldn't experience the true battle system
|
1/3 of the game is a tutorial. He didn't miss much. Kinda
|
Real game starts when you get your crystarium and can use paradigms at the beginning of the 3rd chapter which happens around the 3 hour mark.
Took me 50 hours to finish the game, so the tutorial covers around 6% of the game, 10% at most.

Wrong, the tutorial ends at the start of Gran Pulse. Lets say about 25 hours on average about half the game, so lets be fair here. Now once on Gran Pulse, you have the option of doing side-quests, and leveling up your crystarium. And if you're hardcore you'll complete all your ultimate weapons by farming gil and that ridiculous rare drop item to upgrade weapons. Maybe 30-40hrs on that? So, do you see what I'm coming with here?

looool the tutorial has ended loooong before that. Just because you get some tips at the beginning of the chapter doesn't mean the 20 hours before that are tutorials....
Everything important you need to know to play the game happens during chapters 1-3.
Only new thing you can do at Grand Pulse is doing the side quest. Everything else was already available 20 hours earlier.
|
The tutorial ends on Pulse. It's the first time you have complete access to all of the games systems. You know things like determining who your party is.
|
have you played Final Fantasy IV, same thing. disliking it is fine. Just a tutorial it is not
|
FFIV had a five character limit for battles. So, if you had a main character with you they were in your battle party. In FFXIII there are points in the game before Pulse in which you will have more characters than 3 characters in your party travelling with you, you can equip these characters, use their CP, and but not be able to place them in the active battle party. You are thinking about how your characters became seperated througout the story in both games, that's not what I'm complaining about.
