It wasn't bad but could've been a lot better.. like imagine instead of using schemmatas she used eidolons.. like as part of her becoming the new goddess of death she had to enroll the eidolons.. She could switch between them during battle having them battling alongside her like they did in ff13
I don't know how much people dislike this game, is my favorite of all FF series, and Lightning is an amazing woman, i loved the battle system and the CGI, the secondary quests is so amazing too, i replayed a lot of times ❤ Lightning i miss you
Black Da Ripper I prefer they turn 13 and 13-2 into lightning returns combat and expand on making that better. XV's combat is too simple and casual I wouldn't mind kingdom hearts though
i want now. Ele deveriam fazer isso, e consertar os erros q o jogo nos mostrou, e acrescentar mais coisas, vamos gente , pedir para eles fazerem isso, pelo seus fãs, vamossssssssss, quem tá comigo da like no meu comentárioooo.
Maxs Ivalive is the world setting of FFXII and FFTA2. i actually prefer it because the moogles can actually fight (unlike most serieses where they're just civvies)
This is the greatest series ever to be released to the human race. Im so damn glad to be alive during the FF13 time! what other series extended 3 god damn times people!!!
Lightning is working for Bhunivelze technically, he powered Lightning up even more after Etro. He also was the one who created Etro, Pulse (the fal'Cie no the planet), and Lindzei (Cocoon's head fal'Cie). Snow was branded by Cactuar and basically is still killing himself over failing to save Serah in FFXIII-2, so he doesn't want to deal with Lightning.
I’ve been replaying the trilogy recently. I’ve recently finished XIII and XIII-2. I’ve played them before but I’ve never finished Lightning Returns when it came out. I was really mad with the Time counting down so I stopped playing. It’s not until now it’s when I decided to give it a second chance to this game. I never thought I’d be so addicted to it now. It’s a wonderful game so far. The bosses are hard though. Maybe I just need to grind a bit more. Any however, I’m in love with Lightning Returns now, despite the Time thing. Just finished Luxerion and Yusnaan’s Main Quest. This trilogy is a blast to play through. It’s seriously so beautiful.
The countdown is kinda killing the game because you have to replay it if you failed to survive , if want to save time , follow a walkthrough is not a bad idea because the prob of this game is finding a quest thing could kill you a day xD the story& side story is nice, gameplay & lightning outfit is epic af ,just the freaking countdown xD it make you can't enjoy the beautiful thing because if you stop you're wasting time and end up might need to replay it xD
The memories are kicking in, I still have this on the PS3, I always love Lightning! This Lightning Returns is by far most favorite out of the trilogy! 😉🙂
I just finished this game and it was a masterpiece and surely one of my favourites. The only thing that frustrated me is the time but i think it matches with the story and that means you need to play the game the second time around to deal with it if you still want?!
The story is very complex. Some people find that to be a turn off but if you pay attention it actually makes more sense than I ever imagined. I enjoy the complexity, gives me something to work with and figure out. It's too bad you don't feel the same.
I dont believe Nomura actually worked on anything but Concept Art for XIII. Though it is easy to think that... (His name is on the front page of everything FF)
Lightning's face looks younger in these cinematics, it's still cute though. Maybe they did that to hint us that Lumina was her locked younger side all along?. Their faces are similar if you look at it closely.
@@checcapocchia7417 That because this game only available for PS3, not PS4 nor PS5 unless they remaster/remake it. But if you have Xbox, you can buy the 360 version and play it on your Xbox One or Xbox Series X/S. Xbox backwards compatibility is great. Or you can play it on PC, just buy it on Steam.
after 13 days it's game over.... it may sound like we have little time to play but if we think about it 1 day has 24 hours so...normally we beat a game entirely in 50 hours or so... but still we can can reset time. so that must mean that this game must be huge o.o
Sub Saibot I want a remake of the Trilogy. I loved XIII-2 but I heard a lot on how people hated this trilogy for a multitude of reasons. I think a Remake of the Trilogy on both Xbox and PS would be awesome. Sorta wished FF7R was on Xbox
Why do people complain about the countdown in this game? Unless you literally cannot follow instructions, the game gives you so many chances to extend the time AND in one of the quests, Hope literally asks you to use Chronostasis if you're about to fail a side quest!
The introducing of time-limited play was interesting. It did felt abit stressy to find side-quests and focus on the main ones at the same time before the end of each day, and because of just that, one could not really have the time to enjoy the scenarioes/landscapes and such. But without new elements, the series would become boring and one-tracked, so it was still entertaining. :)
i wish people would understand that final fantasy 15 is coming out soon and is probably almost complete if you watch the news about it or read it. they're working on it. I personally am a fan of all final fantasy's good or bad but this is the last final fantasy 13 which is alright i guess, I will personally buy this game because lightning is my favorite character next to squall. Too many people except bad things to early on. I bet even when final fantasy 15 comes out people will still bitch about something. So just enjoy the game for what it is and not what you want in the game..
I wish I could play this game the cgi cutscenes look beautiful and the world looks breath taking like I seriously thought we'd explore places like that city in the cutscene in FFXV which sadly we don't if you wanna count Altissia as something close.
Happy birthday lightning for your 10 years birthday. You truly were a fun game. I hope other people get to try you out and not listen to boomers telling you that they cant spend 500hours in one playthrough. Please give this game a chance, it is very fun.
Correction - More like FFXIII videos rather than just FF in general. I can see why people may not enjoy it, but that doesn't mean people should have a tantrum just because some people do really enjoy it. (I myself happen to love the FFXIII series games and can't wait for this one).
When i played XIII i hated Lightning. She was so emo and uninteresting. I thought Fang was way cooler. At least now she has a more involved/important/interesting role. Still on the fence about getting this though. Seeing a lot of people saying they were pressed for time.
Snow: "No one is gonna stop me. Not her, not you." Safe to say that that means that he has some unfinished business to take care of, meaning that if his soul is saved by Lightning, he can't finish that resulting in him resisting her "aid". One can only assume that this unfinished business is related to Serah.
A doppelganger is basically a double of another person. Sometimes stories make a supernatural thing, sometimes it's just someone who looks JUST like the other ^^
Sort of, but faster paced. Skills are mapped to each of the face buttons, and cost ATB to use. You can switch to different skillsets which also change your weapon, shield, and armor (clothing), that's a "Schema." Each Schema has its own ATB meter, so when one runs out, you switch to another while its ATB regenerates. Or if you need a particular set of skills for a situation, like healing or defense, you switch on the fly. You can also move freely around the battlefield with the left stick.
+THC He was giving lightning the choice to kill him. I think he knew she wouldn't though. If she decided to kill him then and there ~ he would of made peace with her choice.
Yeah that scene and the one where you fight him is purely fan service for those LightningXSnow shippers. I mean obviously its an impossible ship so they gave them that. Just as they gave Noel and Yuel and even Caius and Past Yuels theyre happy ending
More wise Lightning is stronger. Sephiroth is still a human - super enhanced yes, but still human. Lightning is a demigod at this point - depowered, but still a deity.
no point in fighting over anything, in the end, people that enjoy the game will buy the game, people that don't enjoy it, won't and everyone has their own opinions and no one gives a sh*t about peoples opinions so stop fighting about what game is better.
I miss Lightning
musicGRand see no one cares if you dont miss her, quit trynna be cool 😂
My soul be with Her for ever.
Don’t worry, now she has a career as a supermodel
Same... :’)
Play_maker2000 lol louis vitton hired her
I don't care what anyone says, this was a brilliant game.
Love this game so much!
i agree

It wasn't bad but could've been a lot better.. like imagine instead of using schemmatas she used eidolons.. like as part of her becoming the new goddess of death she had to enroll the eidolons.. She could switch between them during battle having them battling alongside her like they did in ff13
I missed lightning returns, and it always bothered me over the years like an itch at the back of my mind.
little girls want to become princesses when they grow up . if i were three again i want to be her
I agree
I don't know how much people dislike this game, is my favorite of all FF series, and Lightning is an amazing woman, i loved the battle system and the CGI, the secondary quests is so amazing too, i replayed a lot of times ❤ Lightning i miss you
ff xii is goat thoo
I want ff13 - lightning returns on ps4 remastered?! who agrees?
With different gameplay yes I didn't like just hitting x all the time if they have to make it like kingdom hearts or FFXV if they have to
Black Da Ripper I prefer they turn 13 and 13-2 into lightning returns combat and expand on making that better. XV's combat is too simple and casual I wouldn't mind kingdom hearts though
i want now. Ele deveriam fazer isso, e consertar os erros q o jogo nos mostrou, e acrescentar mais coisas, vamos gente , pedir para eles fazerem isso, pelo seus fãs, vamossssssssss, quem tá comigo da like no meu comentárioooo.
Peke I didn’t play this or finish 13-2 so I’d welcome this game
Black Da Ripper duck off
Final Fantasy XIII must come back. We must become L'Cie again.
normally i'd say yeah but seriously we need more love for FFXII and Ivalice.
Wolvenworks I know about XII but I never heard of that last.
Maxs Ivalive is the world setting of FFXII and FFTA2. i actually prefer it because the moogles can actually fight (unlike most serieses where they're just civvies)
Wolvenworks interesting
I feel your fandom.
This game deserve to be on PS5 HD Remaster. It one of my favorite final fantasy game.
This is the greatest series ever to be released to the human race. Im so damn glad to be alive during the FF13 time! what other series extended 3 god damn times people!!!

You manage to get through XIII and XIII-2,and you can play this masterpiece.
another fantastic series! So its only been done 1 other time!
Seven years later and FF is still going strong :)
@@santiagomoron3964 of course it is, it's the most popular JRPG franchise in the whole world

Straight up my favorite final fantasy game as far as gameplay is concerned. I really like this one.
This and crisis core were amazing
Can you believe we've finally reached an era where the actual FF games look like this cutscene?

From all of Final Fantasy I did fall for this one the most. Of course. 10, 12,7 are great aswell but 13 got me :) Love Lightning

This trilogy needs a remaster now!
The Final Fantasy 13 trilogies were awesome, Lightning returns kept me on my toes though, because you had a time limit.

+kory quijas Yes, coming out "soon"
+kurtsaidwhat It's coming out later this year
It's funny to read this comment about FFXV coming out soon and then BAM, came out 3 FREAKING YEARS LATER. LOL
FF15 isnt my cup of tea. Tried it, and I must said i prefer FF13 trilogy.
she's the best!
Hate it or love it the cutscenes in final fantasy games are always awesome
Its the opening of the game. The game starts here in Yusnaan as a tutorial so the intro is themed around that.
I wish I could play this game the cgi cutscenes look beautiful and the world looks breath taking like I seriously thought we'd explore places like that city in the cutscene in FFXV which sadly we don't if you wanna count Altissia as something close.
couldnt agree more
13 days........ I see what you did there Square XD
Its not related to kingdom hearts lol
@@monkeyswag57 I know I was just messing around lol
Ughhh just give us a remastered trilogy I miss these games so much
Ali Hillis has an amazing voice :)
I still dont get why Snow was resisting, i mean all he was doing was keeping the Chaos at bay, he could of just let Lightning do all the work easy.
Am gonna play it again, i mean in 2021. Who with me?
Final fantasy xiii is the best😍😍
0:50 hysterical interior scream
still sad they could have done so much crazy things with Snow. So endless much crazy things, they did his arc truly no justice
Still playing this today
She's amazing 👏🏾😎
please remake this game, I miss lightning😂
Why remake when the graphic is close to FF XV? I have both games so i can compare.
Less of a remake and more of all the FFXIII games ported to the PS4.
@@SemekiIzuio dunno... With what they did with the 7 remake... The graphics could skyrocket...
I'm still playing ff LIGHTNING RETURN after so many years and I replay and replay it over and over again!!🤣 I'm a FAN OF FF!!
WE NEED A REMAKE
Happy birthday lightning for your 10 years birthday. You truly were a fun game.
I hope other people get to try you out and not listen to boomers telling you that they cant spend 500hours in one playthrough.
Please give this game a chance, it is very fun.
I got the platinum many years ago. But I'm gonna play it again. Maybe a bundle with the 3 games for Ps4?
This game is more proof, Chadley from FF7 is a character created from Hope IN Ff13
I'll just go ahead and say it...
XIII series is great, and Lumina's character is amazing, she's one of the main reasons i liked Lightning Returns.
Correction - More like FFXIII videos rather than just FF in general. I can see why people may not enjoy it, but that doesn't mean people should have a tantrum just because some people do really enjoy it. (I myself happen to love the FFXIII series games and can't wait for this one).
Please bring the FFXIII series to PS4 before PS5 comes out. WE'RE STILL WAITING SQUARE ENIX AND PLAYSTATION please.
Zzz
The characters in final fantasy series are amazing.
Especially cloud strife.He is my favorite.
13 is actually pretty good.
Anyone else who hasn't played this game, still want to play it after all of these years
My fav FF all the trilogy! Love Lightning
Lumina was probably one of my favorite things about this game, I wish more games did this chaos guide approach
I remember this game, loved the game I hate the time limit I hate being rushed through it :/

Sort of, but faster paced. Skills are mapped to each of the face buttons, and cost ATB to use. You can switch to different skillsets which also change your weapon, shield, and armor (clothing), that's a "Schema." Each Schema has its own ATB meter, so when one runs out, you switch to another while its ATB regenerates. Or if you need a particular set of skills for a situation, like healing or defense, you switch on the fly. You can also move freely around the battlefield with the left stick.

+THC He was giving lightning the choice to kill him. I think he knew she wouldn't though. If she decided to kill him then and there ~ he would of made peace with her choice.
Yeah that scene and the one where you fight him is purely fan service for those LightningXSnow shippers. I mean obviously its an impossible ship so they gave them that. Just as they gave Noel and Yuel and even Caius and Past Yuels theyre happy ending
Yes.
We all do
Damn!
This should be out on the PS4, with its upgraded graphics! The cutscenes are awesome!! And Lightning is hotter than ever!!!
Is it just me...or is lightning as fast and strong as Sephiroth here?
She fights sephiroth in a dissidia cutscene. Equally I’d say
More wise Lightning is stronger. Sephiroth is still a human - super enhanced yes, but still human. Lightning is a demigod at this point - depowered, but still a deity.
She is actually more powerful than sephy.
Hello, CJ. Good to see you again.
I want it on ps4
1. I'm pretty sure I do know what a good story is.
2. I've played 10 and 12 and I loved both.
3. 13 isn't as bad as you say it is.
no point in fighting over anything, in the end, people that enjoy the game will buy the game, people that don't enjoy it, won't and everyone has their own opinions and no one gives a sh*t about peoples opinions so stop fighting about what game is better.
