Did a recent replay on 360 a couple of years back, tried to get 100% (again) and then started trying to get Platinum trophy on the PS3 version last year.

    This was beautifully done sir! Every bit of exposition, dialogue and small comment covered and I absolutely love how you edit in the travelling and a few encounters to help transition from not only location to location but also one plot point to the next. So many videos would just show the cinematic and cut-scenes but that little extra effort you've put in has paid off in spades here and it allowed me to follow the progression, story and journey easier. For this i wanted to give you the praise you deserve. Excellent work and thank you for allowing me to re-enjoy a game I liked when it first came out and thoroughly enjoyed experiencing again in your video.
    On a side note, i only ever played XIII but was always curious about the story and were it went through the rest of the XIII saga. Have you done videos as well for XIII 2 and Lightning returns? if so id love to watch them. Again great work!

      I think it's something to do with certain Final Fantasy's having an impact on specific generations. Kind of like how most people often favour the first one they played. When I was a kid, my friends LOVED Final Fantasy VII but I never really got into it. When I got older, I got a demo of Final Fantasy X before they did and decided to play it first just to piss them off. And to this day, Final Fantasy X is still my all time favourite.
      As for Final Fantasy XIII. The graphics and combat are great. But the story and characters are kind of all over the place and are a but of a mess. But this is just my opinion. I am getting Lightning Returns as well. I can't wait either!

    • @Arsio12

      It's the same reason why some people like Batman and not Superman and vice versa. It's all a matter of personal taste and preference.
      Like for me I like XIIIs story, but the narrative and characters are all over the place. Also not a huge fan of the combat, fun but I get tired quite fast. Just finished the game after owning it for a little over 2 years (did not touch it for more than a year then went on and off for a while before plowing to the end), might get XIII-2 mainly because I played a demo and found it incredibly fun and a huge improvement gameplay-wise, story though, to me, is terrible and only gonna play it for the gameplay and to more or less complete my Final Fantasy collection. Lightning Returns looks better, will definitely pick it up if I buy and finish XIII-2.

    What a beauty of a game. I have huge respect for them for putting so much effort and thought into the storytelling and cinematics. A lot of game designers put too much emphasis on "exciting" gameplay but this game stands out because it put its story first and did so amazingly. As someone who considers video games an art, this is honestly one of my all time favorites. FFXIII beats even actual movies at their job of being movies. I cried so many times throughout this, and I probably would again if I watched it. It's just so long. Eight and a half hours of pure storytelling... that's longer than a lot of games in their entirety.

      Well he still HATED L'Cie, but as he told Vanille, "Old cynics like me don't believe just everything...Without a shred of proof too?". He knew it was Coccoon propaganda and wile his hatred was misdirected, gotta understand the centuries of misinformation they'd all been fed. Up to Ch. 11 with Hope saying Pulse was "Hell on Earth" to them actually going and seeing the vibrant, gorgeous environments. He hated hismelf for becoming a doomed L'Cie, hated the monsters history claimed they were, but the more they all learned and the more their Brands progressed, the more in tune they became with their Focus, their fate and their desire to go against the programming to do what they believed was Serah's will.

  • @bardwayer
    @bardwayer 5 ปีที่แล้ว +63

    I played this 10 years ago and looking through this now it's amazing how full of life these cutscenes are. There's very few "everyone stands around while exposition is fed to them and someone says this because they have this personality." They react nonstop to what's going around them in a way that shows how they're feeling, whether you notice it or not, even if it's just Lightning at 49:06 giving Snow stinkeye for a nanosecond over his cringy speech. And coming to a better understanding of how real people have defense mechanisms to cope with life, like Snow's compulsive positive reframing, Vanille believing she has no right to be anything other than a cheerful ray of sunshine to others, and Hope stewing in his emotions but choking up when it comes to acting on them. It can be VERY annoying yes, but that's just what real people are like. A journey isn't going to change you immediately, you might go in circles a few times before you finally break free from your neuroses. The game was much more concerned with showing that gradual and nuanced process over any lore or making sure you understood the plot. So basically, if you didn't like the characters, then you weren't going to like the game, and if you didn't like the gameplay, you you probably weren't going to be invested in the characters, but you can't argue how much realistic detail was put into them.

      @tjstarzz9231 ปีที่แล้ว

      This is EXACTLY what I love to see. I got the game ten years back and reviews claimed people HATED it, but the further I progressed, the more it hit like a bonding adventure. Dialogue lines in combat changed to be more informal, more intimate and little tidbits from Hope going "Hiyaah" to "I gotcha Light" or Snow's demeanor going from guns blazing to stalwart guardian just made this game amazing. I liked the sequels but felt XIII was a fine standalone, but, compared to the other two this one displayed a whole cast and range of emotions I never expected from and haven't seen since an "old" game. I hope 16 brings this magick back.

      People complained the game was too linear which idk, I didn't quite see until Chapter 13 with the huge linear corridor. 13-2 was all the fucking way over, with the artefacts and gates leading here and there, and LR was just as wild with that Majora's Mask ass time limit. I had few probs following either plot (I grew up a sci-fi dork and time travel stuff was just amazing to me), so watching the rules in every game (Fal'Cie and L'Cie, Gates/Artefacts/timeline alterations affecting the Seeress, and the Yggdrasil Tree plus Eradia timeclock against the last days before Chaos) be established and consistently broken just made them all more fun as I played on.

    Final Fantasy XIII is one of the best games Square Enix ever made:
    1- the story is amazing, really well thought, the back story, the legends, the culture of Gran Pulse and Cocoon...
    2- the personality of the characters are very well constructed, they are flawed, not god like, not perfect and not childish (except Snow in some aspects),
    3- The graphics are amazing, the fights are hard to win, but not too hard, the thing I liked most about the majority of the fights was that I could win then in a thousand different ways, I never got bored.
    4- The world is big, and we have a lot to explore.... I spent more than 80 hours in game before I reached the final chapter.
    What else people want? There is nothing that will make the trolls happy I think.
    Regardless of the exaggerated "fanboysm" and nostalgia for games made 20 years ago, they were not "better", just different and let's keep in mind that most of the haters played those games as children so I kind of understand all the love for those old FF games but I do not understand the unwillingness of some to see the new games with new eyes...

    • @VictoriaBrz

      Victor Kresnek How inferior? What do you mean? I do not think that the gameplay is repetitive, how do you mean it?
      About the other point:
      -Poor written story: I think the history is quite amazing, imagine yourself living in Cocoon or Gran Pulse, I really liked how the characters discovered the story about both and the war of transgression...
      -Horrible voice acting - In my opinion both English and Japanese versions are awesome (If you get the Asian version, there is Japanese voice acting with English subs, I recommend)
      -No option for a Japanese voice option - I agree with you. This was really a bad choice fro Square Enix, they made it so just for us to buy more copies of the games I think. It really sucks
      -Level Caps - You mean the evolution of crystal gen? It was quite hard to reach a level I was more comfortable to go up against any (not any, Adamantoises are still unbeatable for me, sigh)
      -Extremely Linear: How so, the story, the gameplay??
      -No towns - In gran pulse it was really hard as the population there was pratically instinct, I do think they could have explored more of Cocoon, the characters were being hunted and they could have showed more of their struggle to reach Barthandelus, in this I agree too.
      -Bad level design - I liked the leveling of the characters in general but I think that Square Enix could have give us the choice to level the characters to the fullest instead of only letting us do so after the end of the game...

      @obigweyo 10 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Guess I'll start out positive. The hunts were really fun and the staggering mechanic felt strong, really strong which was awesome, juggling enemies in the air with combos was amazing, we never could do anything like that (minus Dissidia) and it was cool to interact in the fights like that. The game looks good and has some good environments some really great and some that are meh. Sadly that's all the positives I can name for it... Now for the bad...
      Personally it was just boring. Most of the time it was just auto-battle,auto-battle,auto-battle,auto-battle, low hp switch to medic, heal up, back to normal battle. I understand that each of the characters also had their own struggle, Sazh with his son, Hope with his mother, Snow & Light with Serah, and Fang & Vanille with pretty much everything lol, but they were just so dully acted on. The lack of interaction between the world didn't help at all, the most we got to do in the world is hunt monsters and ride an elevator. Another problem was the actual gameplay of it was just dull felt lazy, they limit you about how much you can grow. I'll compare this to ffx did something similar, in ffx you had each character placed on a path that they were meant to go down so you had a role for each character, that said in ff13 you max your roles so quickly and easily that it might as well be a joke with the limit they restrict you with, whereas in ffx they never said "Stop you can't get any stronger because we want you to have a difficult boss"... And with all the hype that they gave the game it didn't help at all when we got it. They constantly teased us with it since what 2004? And when it came out and all we got was a linear level up, linear story, and basic and dull gameplay then at that point it's lost its replayability.

    People can call Sazh Katzroy a token black guy all they want. I loved his character from beginning to end, and it's a shame he's not shown much in Final Fantasy marketing, never losing hope after he had "lost" his son and staying strong of will to forgive someone that unintentionally caused his son to be put in danger.

    Thank you for having the cutscenes for this game! FFXIII was my first Final Fantasy game, and I LOVED it. The story was confusing at first, but the data log you get in the game clears up a lot of the lore. As a teenager, it all made sense to me. Boy, did I cry at the end. Also, I was blown away at the graphics in lots of the cutscenes (and still am). Seeing each individual hair move on the characters’ heads was insane for a video game at the time. It did not deserve the hate it got.

    Thanks for putting this together and a great job. At first i didnt really get this game, the battle system, where and what everything leaving me a little disoriented, so i quit and came back to it a few years later. This video helped answer my unanswered questions and, after beating the game, watching this strengthened the story and the characters a lot. I hated Vanille at the beginning and loved her by the end. Fang is my favorite all around though Lightning grew on me a lot. Great character development and story.
    The game play is pretty simple once your 'Libra'd' everybody, which made this game for me feel more like a story using a game to tell it. I like the characters and cutscenes of this game the most out of all FF's that i have played, but the game play falls short of 7 and 10-2 for me (ive only played 7, 10, 10-2, and 13.) Thanks again great job!

    This is my first FF game, though I recently downloaded FF V for my phone. I have to say, I actually liked the linearity. It let the story progress quickly, without the need for level grinding (at least until Orphan).
    The game was made to combine an RPG battle system with the pace of a FPS game. It was ambitious, and in my opinion, worked thanks to the strong voice acting and impressive cut scenes.
    Would I have liked a bit more freedom to explore? Sure. But not at the expense of the tight, continuous and cohesive story (which apparently, is the issue with XIII-2).
    As an FF "outsider" this game was good enough to make me go back and see what the rest of franchise has to offer. Maybe you guys are right and I'll be so wowed by previous installments that my opinion on XIII will change. But to be honest, I wouldn't bet on it.
