I say more believable characters. Say what you will about Final Fantasy XIII being linear, but what killed it for me was the terrible writing. It felt like I was watching a really cliche anime...and I like anime!


there's always gonna be that guy who says something "controversial" that makes zero sense, don't be that guy.

Final Fantasy XIII greatest achievement was to break from cliched shounen anime story themes. such themes plagued jrpgs and made them painfully repetitive

then again I think FF XIII is a perfect example of a story being better than the mainstream crowd can appreciete. we are used to jrpgs stories treating us like little children. XIII was the first game in years that treated me like an adult


I couldn't disagree with you more lol. XIII was the most cliche generic FInal Fantasy I have ever played. I would literally feel embarassed to watch certain cutscenes just because of how cliche the dialogue was. It was literally painful. I didn't hate the game, but felt it wasn't all that strong.

I'm a huge Jrpg fan, and gaming enthusiast in general. I've played every FF except for 5. Don't call me "mainstream" just because I didn't care too much for a game that the main fanbase of the franchise actually doesn't like that much either.

alright you either give me one concrete arguement HOW THE HELL THE STORY WAS A CLICHE or i am reporting you for flaming.

the terms you used were "terrible, chiche, painful, generic, embarassed" and NOT A SINGLE EXAMPLE. is this your contribution to a thread titled "How to improve game immersion?" shouting at everyone YOUR own personal preferences without elaborating on a single accusation ?
