I do miss the simple/old RPG of castles and knights, going in caves. Fighting dragons, finding legendary swords like the Excalibur etc.

Hey! Did anybody ride a chocobo in FFXlll? I just realised that I never did! I saw a pic of Lightening riding one in a magazine. How does one do this?

After the 14th cieth mission, thats 33 hour into the game, welcome to FF 13 my friend.

PS oh and they are only used to reach other cieth missions

And to get around faster which is fine except you've just ran around like a lemon for whatever amount of hours to get said Chocobo.

Get the f*** outta here!  Seriously?  Well, I beat the game.  I'm not going through all of that trouble to ride a giant chicken.

Haven't watched the whole vid but i definitely think SE is alienating old fans with their new iterations.
It's just not the same...

(it doesn't have to be, but don't downgrade the game...)

How many missions have you finished, you only need to finish 14 missions to get them. Besides whit chocobo's you access secret areas too & you can get to see a cutscene with Vanille torturing a sheep.

what 33 hours? The game is a classic from the moment it starts. And he has completed the game, so he can just start on that save & go to pulse through the portal in Chapter 13, besides chocobo's are also used to get treasure chests in not reachable locations, I know you don't like FF13 but don't act absolutely ridiculous & silly.

You FF fans make me really confused, you whine about ti being linear. Then when you can roam around you call it running around like a lemon, when you do get side missions you say "Its stupid doing them", get over yourselves, your not royalty.

1) He asked when one get to ride chocobos, and thats after you get to grand pulse, 30+ hours into the game.

2) It is linear, grand pulse is not GTA san andres, is an area, anyone tha has played GTA, or WoW doesnt think is an open world, is just an area.

3) is a lot of running around when you dont get any secret/mistic/epic  character/weapon/eidolon for it  just a congratulations screen, some normal items and a chocobo you shoud have gotten 15 hours ago.

4) Side missions are stupid since you wont get any secret/mistic/epic  character/weapon/eidolon out of them, you get things you could get anyother way.

and by the why, you say is a classic from tne moment it starts, i would like to know, a classic what?

I'm not even going to bother with this. You have made your motives towards the game quite clear in every thread related to it, there's no point talking to brick wall.

FF13 is not a classic though. Classics are FF4, FF5,FF6,FF7,FF8,FF9 those are classics. RPGs that truly mean something to us FF fans.

Yes, i never played FF13 because i simply don't want to play it. I'm not going to waste my money to buy a Playstation and a $60 game here in the U.S.A just to be disappointed. I've seen walkthroughs and I've seen some of my friends playing it, and i can tell you that the internet has saved my hard earned money.

Hmm disagree, It's most likely going to outsell FFXI, and FFXII. FFX-2, thus it puts it in the middle, or lower half depending on how you count X-2 And I thought FFXIII game was one of the better ones in the series. And IMO the worst 3D ones are 7 and 12, still awesome games but. Not my favorite (I like FFVII, because crisis core was awesome, and CC would not be good with out FFVII)

However The internet complaining so I won't fail to aknowledge, the complaining is the same or more comparitively to when FFVIII came out, and FFXII atleast I think.

And On rebooting, final fantasy gets rebooted every numbered game. Including even sequals in the same universe as vs is an ARPG So that's going to happen anyways.

FFXII, had characters that were more mature and realistic, and less emo, and a different take on dialogue. and people complained about that as well.

they do need to improve the dialogue, however the dialogue has not gotten worse. IMO It just hasn't increased in quality at the same rate as other games. And when it went from reading to spoken, the dialogue is more noticiably bad when it's spoken as opposed to read. However I noticed how bad the dialogue was in the old ones and still loved them anyways, thus why X and XIII was not a shock.

This is all my opinion. I just didn't want to IMO after every sentence.

Hats off to FFXII for more believable dialogue and perfect old english execution. FFXIII on the other hand took a step back as far as dialogue is concerned. I dont know what happened there. I haven't finished FFXIII yet but I know i am inches away from the final boss and I am assured there is nothing that can happen in the story to make it one of FF's best in the series. Its very low tier of the totem for me(FFVII,FFX,FFIX,FFVIII,etc).

I just feel like I have been slapped in the face with FFXIII's blatent need to be as different from other FF games as possible. The FF series doesn't need another reboot, thats the problem in my opinion. Stop trying to make FF not play like FF.
