The thing that shocks me is how much universal praise Final Fantasy X gets, but Final Fantasy XIII is the "bad one"


Whatever is new is what is hated. FF12 was the bad one. FFX-2 before that. I remember people hating on FFX on GameFAQS 12 years ago. It happens.

It's my second favorite game of all time, so I love it as well. Was just commenting.

FFX was the first game I got on the PS2, back when I was like 9-10 years old

Damn I feel old

I am not saying it's bad, but it's not worlds better than Final Fantasy XIII

Completely agree

Seems to me that FFVIII is the overrated one on the board these days. I won't be surprised if in a few years it won't get the love that it gets now.

I was about 9 when the first Final Fantasy came out. No internet to get a tutorial, just a special issue of Nintendo Power if you were lucky enough to have subscribed.

But in FF13, I think I skipped too many random battles and not leveled up enough. I'm stuck on Barthandelus and he casts Doom and I croak. I follow the recommended set ups and I can't finish him. It's such a time sink each time to deal with it.

It's a lot like the Zelda series in that regard.

Final Fantasy 13

I generally can't stand JRPGs, but I liked FF13. Many FF fans complained about the game... this was the first and only FF game I've ever played.

Doesn't hurt to try it out.

Try using different or upgraded weapons?

How do you know you hate the genre if you waited so long to play a game in the most popular series in said genre?

This. I've been on somewhat of a JRPG kick lately.

Played through Lost Odyssey and now working on Ni no Kuni, if that classifies as a JRPG.

Ninokuni is very much a JRPG!

It was bad, but give her some points for trying and play it.

I've been at the final boss for about a year. Haven't been able to actually sit down and play the game. It. Something I have to psych myself into doing. I kinda want to finish the game bc I want to do the side quest mission things.


Maybe one day....
