Final Fantasy Versus XIII

[Max Payne]

I was clearly joking I fucking hate XIII and almost anything related to it.

I kind of figured, but you never know on the innernets. I know plenty of people who worship that pathetic excuse for a Final Fantasy and it's always (not) fun to get into a discussion about my own opinion. It's amazing I've even bothered to care so much about Versus. LOOK AT THE HOLD SQUARE ENIX HAS ON ME! T_T

*swears she will stop playing if Versus blows*

You may regret these words. Or not .

Nomura says that he recently did a walkthrough of the full world map. He also did a check on the game's dungeons and the side paths in the game's towns. He was impressed with how expansive everything is.

When Square Enix announced the development of its "Luminous" next generation engine, some very cruel people joked that maybe Versus would be updated to use it. Actually, the game does use the lightning technology from Luminous, Nomura reveals. However, the game also uses a game specific engine that's specialized for action.

With Versus, Nomura promises a Final Fantasy like you've never seen before.

All these words sound so awesome... that I'm getting scared like there's no tomorrow. It's like... you have a glimmer of hope after being beaten down too many times. You just HOPE that this isn't another mistake.

ARGH. I need to stop expecting good things from SE and the FF series for good. Maybe then, I'll enjoy something from this mess.

 

[LoneWolfTifa]

At least we know Versus will look amazing!

It may be rude but...this made me particularly laugh. I'll just hope they'll shut my mouth up and show it was worth it waiting for this game so long.

 

[Jaqen H'ghar]

They better stand and deliver is all I gotta say. Assholes have been making me wait for way too long.

 

[ForceStealer]

And the rationale of holding off showing Versus at TGS in deference to Famitsu would be...?

They're too lazy to do a trailer and/or a demo. They're better off saying some shit to write on a magazine and show some shiny pictures of the game.

 

[DrakeClawfang]

Dunno where they came from, but new pics, excellent quality.

Spoiler

 

[Elisa Maza]

They're not new, all of them were in the latest trailer, but thank you for the good pics nonetheless. *right clicks, saves*

 

[DrakeClawfang]

I can't help but think Stella looks like a blonde Serah.

 

[Alex Strife]

I'm still not comfortable with Noctis as the main character. There's something about him that I don't like.

Hopefully the game will change my mind, if it ever comes out.

Hair not spikey enough? Face not effeminate enough? Outfit doesn't have enough belts and zippers? We've yet to see his swords clearly and thus cannot judge how ridiculously implausible they are?

Well like him... I like him better than a few main protagonists from the series... But then again tht is judging by his looks. Probably his personality will end up screwing it. So far he's the only protagonit I actually like....
And he does have one of the more effiminate faces in the series IMO

Seems to say we can expect Versus in 2013.

 

[Alex Strife]

The only thing the article says is that Nomura says the game has little chance of being released in 2012, so the reporter says we should expect it on 2013. But Nomura said nothing about 2013, so it could be 2014, too, although I admit that's a bit too far away; even for Square's current standards.

Aerith.

I'm just surprised at all the fanart that has come over deviantArt - at the very least deviantArt - regarding Noctis (and Stella, but it seems more dedicated towards Noctis.)

Never underestimate Square

Jesus Christ! I give up.

There's more than I expected on Pixiv as well.

Good luck with that one.

Welcome to the modern fanbase of FF. Where 99% is now comprised of THIS.

 

[Jaqen H'ghar]

Oh re: the article WHICH I ACTUALLY UNDERSTOOD BEFORE CLICKING TRANSLATE GO ME.

Anyway, it says maybe 2013, which maybe explains why it wasn't at this year's TGS and says to remember the game was announced in 2006... lol.

 

[Tetsujin]

So yeah, Noctis ain't a prince, he's a Duke.

No he has all those boxes ticked.
