Linearity isn’t inherently bad. It’s how you do it that counts.

This

Never played FF13 but I did like the porn

I'm just waiting for the XIII trilogy to be ported to current systems. X and X2 got it, and they're way worse games

The linearity in TWEWY’s case isn’t so much of a problem considering how shorter in length it is and how great the pacing was. Plus, you can fight whenever you want and, if you haven’t played the game in the while, you can even get experience points for your pins.

XIII is unironically my favorite FF, followed by IX and VI. I really wanted to like XV but god damn they rushed the shit out of it

I actually liked the majority of twewy’s cast. the only characters I liked in 13 were snow, sazh, and fang.

>people waited 10 years for FF15
>people died waiting for FF15
For as much shit I fling at FF13, at least the game was finished on release.

>we got three goddamn FF13 games

>wanting modern Square to make a TWEWY 2
You and I both know that they would fuck it up.

For starters, you’re given a lot more freedom in how you want to engage in battles in TWEWY. Seriously, chaining together fights for better drops was the fucking tits.

After A New Day, I’m not even sure if I want a sequel anymore.

I can't.
there's absolutely no reason a game as shitty as FFXIII should be rated that high.

Fpbp

No, user. It’s really not.

>good game has higher ratings than bad game
I fail to see the problem here.

TWEWY is the better game

>sees the filename
and your point is?

>Linearity isn’t inherently bad. It’s how you do it that counts.
this. FFX did it right. XIII did it wrong.

What’s the best way to play TWEWY?

DS version for sure.

DS version. The ports are decent but the original release is where the gameplay really shines the most.

Go for DS. Ports are shit.

Once again, the first post is the best post.

Original release as always.

Whenever I see this abbreviation I think of Tewi, so I get horny and fap to bunny-loli porn :-(

I never really bothered to save any hentai, I just always fapped to the first thing that shows up on ex and now the n-hentai search-engine.

Search the jp or h archives and you get some good stuff

Are the FF13 sequels actually worth playing or nah?

TIME

I WON’T EVER GIVE IN

NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU PULL ME IN

I KNOW GRAVITY AIN’T AN EXCUSE

I JUST WANNA MAKE THINGS A LITTLE MORE SMOOTH

MAJORITY IS STILL ASLEEP

THEY ARE TIRED UP OF THOSE DREADFUL DREAMS

>at least the game was finished on release.
Given all the shit that was revealed in versus, agito, 13-2, and LR only months after FFXIII went gold, you really have to wonder how many of those mechanics were underdeveloped when XIII was on its development path and ended up getting ripped out to put into sequels.

NOW LET ME SHOUT AND WAKE YOU UP

WHY YOU WANT TO TIE ME UP?

GET OUT OF MY WAY, 'CAUSE I'M ON MY WAY

XIII isn't worth a heroin addiction, just watch a video on YouTube about the game or cutscenes instead.

XIII-2 has good music. That's about all I can say for the "series".

It's the best FF series, so I get what they mean, they want a chance to play it

I DON’T CARE ABOUT IMAGINARY BOUNDARIES

BUT SOMEHOW I'M AFRAID TO GO OVER THEM

COVER UP ALL THE SCARS AND MEMORIES

CREATIVITY IS ALL I GOT, SO LET SHOUT TO WAKE YOU UP

Its true, the game becomes really good after 20 but some people enjoy the earlier parts.

Yes

THE SKY ABOVE CHANGING ITS COLOR

FROM DAWN TILL DUSK, I WONDER WHY?

IS THIS A CURSE OR JUST A WRONG ANSWER?

AM I FLOATING ON A CLOUD WITHOUT WINGS?

This is correct. XIII's score is way too fucking high.

ALL OF A SUDDEN THE END MIGHT COME SO I DON’T ACT LIKE SOMEONE ELSE

TWEWY has top-tier game design and no one can convince me anywise.

People always say this but as someone who played through it entirely, it never gets good even for a second. It's a fucking dreadful experience from start to finish.

This. What a fucking shitshow of a game.

>meme game vs. Final Fantasy
Hmmmm.

FF13 is not a good Final Fantasy game, user.

This game was a gem.

The World Ends With (You)

fpbp

DS or bust.

TWEWY is actually a good game.

TWEWY is unironically one of the best games of its generation, it does practically everything right and almost nothing wrong, its objectively a 10/10, its damn near perfect, main reason I didn't pick it up on Switch is because it worked far too well on DS, but I hear good things if you play in handheld with a cursive stylus

I agree man. It just does so many things right and you can tell that there was a lot of passion and thought put into it.

honestly this, the combat system to me was just such a fucking chore in every way, it wasn't fun or engaging, it felt like a dull slog the entire way through, I made it to Orphans Cradle because I was determined to enjoy the latest FF but I just couldn't handle it anymore
surprisingly, I actually enjoyed my time with XIII-2 and LR despite the hopeless mess of a story, I really hope they revisit LR's combat sometime for another series, that shit was fun

FF13 had the same problem that the KH games did in which the sequels (well, KH2, going by fan reaction) have better gameplay but almost everything else is a goddamn mess.

Fucking based

>caring about metacritic

ff13 has a 65 on PC version the true version

lmao no it wasn't
FF13 has no towns, no dungeons, no exploration, no NPCs to talk to, no minigames, no vehicles to ride, no combat variety, etc. It was just a fucking coridoor and cutscenes aka a literal movie with the worst characters ever and a literal who villain. FF13 literally had cancelled DLC too, hell it was so bad that 13-2 retconned the ending of FF13 just to take place and then 13-2 ALSO had cancelled DLC which were all supposed to be part of the main story. Kitase comfiened they cut enough content out of FF13 to make a whole other game with, FF13 is literally unfinished

XV is actually a fucking game that you play that has towns, dungeons, exploration, NPCs to talk to and get sidequests from, minigames, various vehicles to ride, actual combat variety and each character plays completely unique to each other, and actually great characters and villain that you care about.

Switch version, Nomura said it's the best version with the most content.

I really liked the battle system after 20 hours. I got it for 5 bucks so I feel like I got my moneys worth, if I had got it for 60 at launch then I would've been mad.

""gaming journalists""

I just bought FFXIII and FFXIII-2 for 7€. I remember FFXIII being pretty bad except maybe for the Pulse part that you can explore a bit. I liked that because I remember playing it after FFXII whose world is fucking giant. Other than that, the game was shit.
Never played FFXIII-2. It's good? Bad? Ok?

battle system is slightly better and faster than the first XIII, music is surprisingly good

story is shit. it's like they tried to do a remake of Chrono Trigger, except with Final Fantasy XIII in the title
