"Final Fantasy XIII Discussion Thread"

Big name, big game and big fan following...it's bound to be a game widely discussed!

As we seem to have a thread for most of the big games, I thought we may as well have one for this behemoth of a game - so if you have any ideas, favourite ways to play the game or just want to pass comment on what already appears to be a fantastic and absorbing game - please post here.

If you want to discuss the plot or other aspects of the storyline - remember to use the tags to hide it from people who want to play the game without ruining it for themselves.

first off...I'm liking the combat system now - no definite turn based combat? Action seems to be constant even though you have to select your moves. Brilliant?

Destrudo is his charge attack, Smile is where he opens up his face and hits a multi-laser straight line attack that hits anyone in range. He fell in about 15 minutes due to his Destrudo timing, but past him now.

Oh oh... okay, I've just read most of the thread including the spoilers.

Warhunt? I think I am at the end, or very close to the end, of chapter 11 (or maybe 12). Do you recommend I turn around and go back to the field now or is there going to be an easier way to return later in the game?



Probably didn't need the spoiler button but heyho

Don't hold your breath for a ship, a feathery yellow mode of transport though....

I'm fairly certain that you cannot miss the first one as it is part of a mission (the tower one you mentioned), similar to the first one in the field and the last one before you head into Chapter 12. If memory serves there is a teleport in the room before the final boss which allows you back to the field.

Aha! thanks - I'll keep plodding forwards then as I'd hate to have to turn back now ><

barthendules is the boss's name

Grrr... reloaded an old save point as I can't get past the boss at the end (presumably) of chapter 11. I did end up back at the 'Syn' field and now I'm running around in pigging circles trying to get the 3rd mission done!!!

This stupid **** $$YWW q R TQATGA TGETGA game is doing my tree in now. Soooo very close to no longer enjoying it and calling it quits. That would be a sad first :(

I'm posting this because, usually, as soon as I complain about something I solve it and feel daft ><

... and solve it I did :)

At last I find that I'm now addicted to this game after running around and doing a few missions. After doing the first couple I just kept 'having a quick look' at the next one. 10 missions later it's 3.00 am and I had to quit and go sleep! Not surprised I was having so much trouble at the end of chapter 11 - it's disgusting what I missed out earlier.

Not even the thought of having to redo the tower quests is dampening my enthusiasm atm

It's pretty easy to redo them. Teleporter just outside (ish). ANd the missions themselves are easy.

I'll be honest, the boss at the end of chapter 11 caused me a lot less problems than people had me believe he would. It was a bit awkward with my girlfriend watching me play with her being a couple of chapters behind, trying to ensure no spoilers got through...managed to not give too much away, I think.
