"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?

All my weapons are still at level 6, if I remember correctly...

Well i think i might go run around and kill some enemies, good for CP as that is starting to require a lot to move on, but i got most my people at level 3 on 2 roles and close on their third role being level 3 aswell. So i think my team should be strong enough! But never hurts to go get some more.

I need to level more weapons up, i think the highest i have is the Gladius at level 12 or something.

I pick up everything I can, and completely cleared that room.

GameFAQs has a guide on what items you need for that trophy, Warhunt reads it pretty much every day, it tells you where you can get the 'one-chance' stuff and which you can buy/upgrade at certain points.

Personally, I'm not all that bothered about that particular one although I know a certain someone who is....


Didn't play it myself last night, probably not again till the weekend so you'll be caught up with me by then mate!

Nice one Jubba!

Managed to get a couple hours done last night and finally get to choose my party, so i am at;



I have got, Snow, Vanille and Light at the moment, might switch it about, but Vanille is my best SAB.
I have to have Lightening in my team and i like Snow, plus his health is much above everyone elses!

If anyone wants the guide you can get it here

I've added a review of the game so far in the reviews section if anyone who hasn't played it yet wants to have a look.

Final Fantasy XIII Review

Hmmm the SAB and SYN is a good thing to have, really does help out on some of the stronger enemies, so i guess having that as an option is pretty good.

Hope also has decent Magic, tough choices i guess!
I reckon you can get on with most parties, but some will be easier than others....

Lightning 15500HP (1800, 2000)
Fang 20500 HP(2500, Dunno magic
Hope 14300HP (Dunno Str, 2300 Mag)

RAV/COM/RAV normally although COM/SAB/SYN is good to start.

All 3 have their tier 2 weapons now, so the stats will go up a fair bit with the ultimate upgrades.

Hmmm, so Snow is basically the best SEN? Shame i wish he was the strongest as i like being the COM in the team and i like Snow!

I would quite like to go with;

Snow, Light & Fang..... what do you use Warhunt??

No. Not by far. My fang has 2400 (I think) whereas Snow has just under 1900. (NO equip on him though)
