I hope they don't stop their current projects.

Toriyama says he'll do what he can to finish the story in DLC...
I swear he did. I just can't find the article!!!

I think they already had to cancelled a bunch of projects after FFXIV's miserable launch? I'd say it prompted Youichi Wada to say some daft stuff, but that pretty much covers everything Wada says all the time.

There you go.
I don't know if I'd prefer another game or DLC. I guess both are okay, as far as I'm concerned.

Not sure how I feel about this story DLC thingy... I mean I will still buy it, but when I get a game, the story is the one thing that I expect to be entirely finished. BUT ANYWAYZ, I just hope it won't be something too important

About story dlc
It would be great if they could finish the story in one dlc, but the way it was structured I doubt it.
From what I heard, they made Etros to be a huge manipulator/troll. Which means in order to have strong conclusions from it, Lighting will actually have to confront Etros, and maybe at the same time, confront Pulse, Lindzei, and the underlying problem of Muin.
I mean, the entire reason that bad things happened and all the fal'cie were insane murderous douches was because Buniberzei is trying to find Muin. So the best way to resolve these issues is attempt to stop all this fight between gods.
That's not something I see happening in a dlc.

Get ready for monthly story DLC's, more or less like the chapters structure of Before Crisis.

YEAH I WANT THAT OUTFIT TOO DAMNIT. >:C And I like Rikku's X-2 outfit sooo maybe that's why I don't mind Serah's plus I love pink and so-cute-it's-barf-worthy type of things. Unless it's Kairi's keyblade. That shit was ridiculous.
YAY FINALLY TIME TO KICK LIGHTNING'S ASS
but maybe I won't be able to
because she's the strongest character in all of final fantasy now hurrhuurrduurr
but why not

I bet this happened all the time between FFXIII and FFXIII-2. Because it's either the cat or Snow.

More than a day without anyone giving enough of a shit to comment on a game that just came out. I'm going to extrapolate this micro to the macro and say "SE dropped the ball."

For one, I don't know what to say, really. That's why I've not said anything.
I would be lying if I said I said that I am not disappointed with anything I've seen of the game thus far.
There's some reserved judgement because I do not know Japanese; and, no offense to anyone who has tried to help in this arena, there is no one who has been available to give a good translation of what's happening in the scenes of interest. I also reserve comment due to the fact that I ran into one person who - while he may have meant all the best - basically described one paradox ending interjecting what he thought he saw. He claimed there were characters and images that were clearly not there when I happened upon the scene myself.
Really, I am feeling sure SE meant to stick it to the gamers, which upsets me greatly. Though I'm also upset with the gamers for all the bitching about how 'linear' XIII was.
Seeing the destruction of the world at the end of the game was definitely a buzz-kill. I never expected that. With that ending, I am not sure how they are going to dig out of the scenario that poses. Knowing SE, they'll come up with something; but, still, it's like they dug their grave, jumped in and buried themselves. If this is really the introduction, advertisement for a XIII-3...
Right now, I'm in it all for the fal'Cie and the gods. They seem to be the only thing involved with XIII that SE hasn't killed. Yet? I hope they don't.
I like girlie things too.
As said, I'll probably end up getting it anyhow, though I really get sick and tired of the objectification of girls and women.No offense, but everything in Kingdom Hearts was ridiculous.
but why notAwww! Don't call the fal'Cie douches!
I don't see them as the enemy as XIII tried to promote, even the Cocoon fal'Cie.
My cynicism in humanity is coming out.

I don't think you need to know japanese to see that it's a nonsensical clusterfuck rife with unoriginal, unimaginative, fucking boring characters, awful cheese, heavy-handed everything (much like its predecessor), topped with an ending that is not only drab, but completely lifeless for all the emotion is elicits from the viewer.
I've practically watched the entire thing and I have to say that the problem, imo, is not that
This game seems nothing but an expensive trailer for (the inevitable) FFX13-3. It's not a story. It doesn't fucking stand on its own in any way, shape or form.
They put Lightning on the cover and she's not even in it past the few mins in beginning. LOL
From what I'm reading it doesn't seem like it's a game that's made them any new fans or really won over the old ones. I don't get the point, but then I never did.

everyone dies, but that I don't give a shit that they die.

Sadly... Right now, I am feeling the way you do for the most part.
It's being applauded for it's openness and some of the other fixes to the original XIII's system of play, but - yeah... no big splashes.
All the hype on Lightning was just a waste of time. Though, she's never been a favorite of mine.

It wasn't a waste of time, it was deliberate misdirection....which I guess is the whole point of marketing
But I just find it weird because of the level to which Lightning was pushed down our throats in the promo stages. Dissidia, anyone? She was so heavily marketed. She takes up like over half the game cover/box. She's everywhere except the actual game.
Which is fine by me, I don't like her at all. Still, false advertising sucks balls

If discussions on this board have taught me anything, it is that advertising is never misleading or wrong.
I find it hilarious that
the only thing people seemed to care about (that I as a casual observer picked up on) was the fate of our power lesbian couple. And they even made that the motivations of some of the characters. Then they pull the rug out from under that and go "lol nope"
