I feel so out of the loop. I mean, I knew about all this FFXIII lore and stuff, but I never paid close attention to it, mostly because I couldn't be bothered. When you hate a game, you don't spend much time investigating the subtleties.

One thing I do know is that the lore is deep and nuanced, but the story presented in the game was horrible.

This is the game's most damning flaw in my opinion. The execution of an actually good underlining story was completely muddled and lost on the game. After reading all the lore text I was really expecting the cast to be more "Fuck you god for setting us up to be slaves, We killed orphan, YOU ARE NEXT!!!". That would have been a great premise  for continueing the story. I just could never shake the feeling that the cast had no fucking clue what they are doing and that they basically ACCIDENTALLY saved the world. Did we forget that they had a half hour argument on whether they should kill or save orphan in the end? They basically flipped a fucking coin and said fuck the consequences. Thats NOT EPIC SQUARENIX!!!! More like the epitome of anti-climactic.
