Square best be trolling with this one. All FFXIII needs is to be forgotten and abandoned like the failed, badly made, poorly written experiment it was. You do not redeem a game by making a spin-off to it.

People are shocked that after 14 releases that they have gotten sick of the game series?
I think ff13 was pretty amazing graphically and had some good combat ideas. The chars were to me the same snotty whiny weirdo jap chars as in any other FF release. Sure it wasnt the best FF release overall, but it gets far too much criticism for what its worth.. and dont buy X2, no body is forcing it on you.

Maybe the unthinkable will happen and Squenix will listen to fans and fix XIII's failings.
Then again, they don't exactly have a good track record when it comes to listening. And even if they did, they're probably only going to take remarks from Japanese fans into account and since those have different standards and demands compared to Western gamers ...

Ugh...considering that FFX-2 was one of the worst Square games ever, i´m not putting much faith in this. The fact that this is a sequel to a game that got mixed reviews also doesnt scream "by popular demand".I think i´ll pass.
So it's a sequel of the series sequels thats inside another sequel from a franchise that has many sequels, some sequels of other sequels.
.. Sequely

I didn't think X-2 was that bad, it had a really good job system.
I'll wait to see what people say about this game as to whether I buy it or not instead of rushing out to get it right away and then be disappointed like with XIII

I liked XIII a lot and itll be interesting to see how they do this.
Just hopefully with less of the massive amounts of cut content cos the 360 cant handle it.

Versus will be superior, although I'll still check out XIII-2

Gah. I didn't mind the story to XIII, it was the battles being pretty much automated and the majority of the game being very, very linear that killed it for me. Graphics were great, but I still play my old copy of FFIV from time to time and enjoy it much more so I really don't give a damn about that.
All in all, if they fix it up, I'll pick it up. Nothing else to say, really, just hope they don't give us more of the same. If there's one thing I liked about X-2, it's definately the fact that is was so fundamentally different than X as far as gameplay, not just a repeat.

I liked FF13 and its story, but it could've been way better actually. The history between Cocoon and Pulse was definitely interesting but somehow SE decided not tell more about it. I enjoyed the battle system though, and I agree it was way too linear and also quite tedious sometimes.
Like some have said, if they can fix what they did wrong, I'd definitely pick up FF13-2 at some point.

The amount of time it needs to make one in hd?Amethyst Wind said:
Just look at the towns in other big games like fallout, they come straight from the random town generator!
But i agree with the rest of your post, even though i enjoyed the combat filled gameplay without pseudo-exploration that was almost never there in the series.
