Im loving how you can make use of traps against people, especially the people that put said traps there to begin with...

Re: Games Discussion Thread
Finally picked up Final Fantasy XIII again after a 9 month break from it. Up to what's the final stretch of the game now. I have to say that although the battle system feels...wonky from time to time, the story itself is actually kind of neat. I like the deviation from the usual LET'S SAVE THE WORLD AND FIGHT INEXPLICABLE MONSTERS GUYS to a plot that eventually involves that aspect and doesn't start out with it. Having a fantastic soundtrack also helps too.
I also have to say that the part where you first get to Oerba is easily one of the most heartbreaking moments I've ever seen in a game for me, only being beat out by the Covenant invasion/evacuation of New Alexandria in and ending of Halo: Reach. ;____;

I've yet to complete FFXIII, mostly because once I arrived back on Cocoon and fought that douchebag flying robot thing once, the second time I have to fight it it keeps raping me with its limit release attacks.

Re: Games Discussion Thread
I've only ever played I, II, VII, IX (maybe 20% into it right now), and XIII.
I have to say that I like them all, and although VII is far too overhyped, it's not a bad or mediocre game at all. It actually does have its own unique charm as much as I hate to admit it.
IX is superior to it though. Just all around better. XIII is...interesting. A rough reboot of the franchise, if you will. Not bad, not terrific, and certainly very polarizing for long term fans. I for one do like it because of the risk it takes in overall design, even if the gameplay does slightly suffer for it by being linear. The illusion of freedom in the older games during their main quests justifies this change however.

Re: Games Discussion Thread
IX is worth your time and XII is good if you don't mind the battle system and Vaan's character design (fantastic story, but not very character focused).
Otherwise...ehh.

Re: Games Discussion Thread
I'm quite suprised you used the term 'illusion of freedom'. While of course you are in some ways quite correct, you can't choose to not save the world, you have to progress through dungeons in a pre-set order, and areas are un-accessable untill your high enough level for them (or you've gone through a required part of the story).
However, being able to leave a dungeon and go back to town to buy more potions was fuckin nice, almost as nice as having a world map ( GIVE IT BACK SQUENIX GIVE ME BACK MY WORLD MAP).
I'll admit that the change in story type was a good one, starting with the characters being almost completely out for themselves and then deciding that they needed to save their loved ones (and I guess the rest of the world too...) once the scope of the situation was revealed to them. Alot more realistic than having a completely altruistic group of hero's who're saving the world just because they're good guys.
