Great impressions perpride!!! I've been waiting a long time for your input of the import version, I'm so glad to see an actual view of the game that it's not prejudiced by wanting the game to be bad.

You just shoot my want level for FFXIII to stratospheric levels xD.

Tell me just something, is there a compendium of information about places, enemies and such like in FFXII?

I'm not exactly sure about enemies...but there is a section in the menu called the "autoclip". The autoclip pretty much gives you information about the places you've been and the things that have happened. I'm pretty sure there's a section about enemies too. I'll check to make sure the next time I play.

Great, that was one of the things I enjoyed the most in FFXII, I love when RPG's gives you a huge amount of Lore, makes the experience far more enjoyable and believable to me :D

Vanille FTW!!!!!

lol yeh from reports sazh is liked the most

but in general ALL characters are good so cool!

even hope & vanille who I thought would be annoying are cool

GO FF13!



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

I wanted a fixed party towards the end, but now it looks like that isn't going to happen

Initial Fixed Party Sazh, Lightning (Controlled) and Fang

Now am in love with Hope's summoning and I need a Healer which isn't a role by these characters I think, anyone clarify?

I thought that you could exchange roles as you went along the Crystallium system. From Vids i've seen, people were using Jammer/Healer/Enhances combos a lot, but all were interchangeable.

I think the majority of the big name sites, magazines and reviewers are going to see the game for what it is, instead for misplaced hate for this FF not being their FFVI or FFVII ideal remake or blueprint. All the previews at least points to how awesome and how good this game is :)

Yeah.  It's not like RE5 where they mechanics were similar to RE4.  FFXIII is a different beast from FFXII.
