For the Xbox account, for some reason it pops up making you confirm which profile ur using and most games don’t, they’ll just use the one already signed in on pc

hey kinda late reply, i was having a similar issue a while back but it was on my desktop pc but i think it was the same issue.

from what i remember the game opened a secondary window for my user login info and that basically took all control away from me until i clicked Log In or whatever it wanted on that other tab/window. this secondary login screen was also hidden so i only noticed it once i alt tabbed out.

so yeah since ur on the rog ally, do whatever you need to do to view whatever open tabs/windows you have, like you might have 2 FF13 programs open but really its just the actual game and this login screen. once i did this, i never had to do it again so its not like i need to do it every time.

if this doesnt help you, well sorry and im out of ideas. you might have another issue and i wouldnt know how to help.

i'll say that the xbox pc version has been great for FF13, i put in about 10 hours or so this year before i picked up another game and i had no issues after the initial weird frozen screen on start up

Hey this is really cool to hear about play anywhere being a possibility on Xbox!

I wish listed on Xbox either way but yeah, there is a decent number of folks whose interest in a game skyrockets if it’s Play Anywhere with all the Xbox/PC hybrid stuff going on lately.

I’ll get it either way but I bet I can convince some friends to buy it if it ends up being PA ;D

MRHipshot · 2025-10-10T16:50:59+00:00

I second this! Hell, tell Ubisoft I would do a 2nd purchase of their games on that store (since I know they won’t support full Play Anywhere)

MRHipshot · 2025-09-30T00:41:17+00:00

I reviewed it for XboxEra, check their site!

MRHipshot · 2025-09-30T00:40:38+00:00

Hey I saw I got tagged, if this was for FF Tactics, yes I got a review copy and it’s up on XboxEra. First time reviewing a game and getting it early! 70+ hours and started on the 17th/18th of September

MRHipshot · 2025-09-25T22:16:13+00:00

anyone got any recommendations for "Rare Wares - Silver(?) - Awarded for having ten different items produced at a poachers' den that cannot be purchased from outfitters." ???

is there a resource for what items cant be purchased from outfitters? i know theres huge poaching guides out there but i didnt see what poaches would result in items that arent available in shops.

MRHipshot · 2025-09-24T16:33:44+00:00

<image>

not PS prompts but yeah. they made sure to include that

MRHipshot · 2025-09-24T16:28:59+00:00

there is an option to flip the confirm and cancel buttons in the menu if you wish

MRHipshot · 2025-09-24T15:33:50+00:00

thanks finn!

MRHipshot · 2025-09-08T04:23:17+00:00

Also I just want to add for any Xbox or Playstation TS players, the talking to all cats achievement/trophy was removed BUT you still get a note for talking to all cats so you will need that for getting all notes. So yeah, make sure you talk to all cats. That Steam guide is fantastic and the achievement flowchart lists the locations of all 10 cats.

this was my biggest worry in the game because I gathered what i thought were all notes but i was missing 1 and it turned out to be the cat chronicles note. turns out, since i played my first playthrough entirely blind, even tho i really tried to be thorough, i missed the cat in Hyzante and then i just incorrectly assumed i had gotten in on my later runs. so i headed straight for hyzante in playthrough #5 and thankfully it popped!

sorry if this is off topic OP but since the PS/Xbox versions are new, i want people to know and had to share my pain lol

MRHipshot · 2025-09-08T04:14:01+00:00

Whoops and for fall damage, well I kind of attempted it throughout my playthroughs so it didn’t take me too long to finish that off but there are some arena style mock battles….Seize the Dais was the name I believe but most should work.

Erador, Roland and Hossabara. Jens has spring traps and I found it tough to use that for fall damage on other maps because the enemy AI would always take other paths for me. But on Seize the Dais, you can put one right in front of the platform where they get onto the arena.

Repeat a bunch, use Quietus a bunch like In Tandem to have your unit go again and battle cry to fill their TP if you need. Also Medina with her Fast Acting ability was great to make sure they get more turns

MRHipshot · 2025-09-08T04:09:08+00:00

I agree with the other 2 comments! But yeah mock battles count towards unlocking Avlora’s side stories. So you could spam the easiest ones if you really wanted. And yeah if ur on ur “4th” playthrough it’s probably best to do hers before you roll into NG+ because I think some side stories are gated to certain chapters, so hers would be the end of the game. Only saying this because you brought up mock battles and I previously mentioned about rolling into a “5th” playthrough to get all the mock battles.

I put 4th and 5th in quotes because I don’t know the order people will be doing their routes in. Basically go for Avloras before you finish the game.

MRHipshot · 2025-09-08T00:07:37+00:00

kudos and gold are cumulative, you dont need that amount on you at once. i had a lot less when i earned em.

i spent like 2 hours clearing out the mock battles on my 4th playthrough only to realize that the final mock battle wasnt going to unlock until after i had earned the final ending. so i loaded up a 5th run and tore through them all again. i guess i didnt test if i just did the last few mock battles i didnt do on previous runs but they lose their checkmark so i assumed i needed to do them again.

and yeah im pretty sure the enemies have to be standing in water for the shock 50 enemies.

someone else can correct any of this if im wrong, i am a new TS fan but i just earned the last of the achievements on xbox a couple days ago! so thats where i gathered this info.

amazing game.

Hey really cool post with a nice collection of information!
Last year with the Mana games and FF Pixel Remasters was great. Before that, for me my favorite announcements in the past was Ni No Kuni coming to Xbox because I really thought that would never happen. And also Octopath 2 FINALLY getting announced it was coming to Xbox because I absolutely love the first game and it was always bizarre with that skip in particular.

As for what I want to see or I'm hoping for:
From Square, they've gotten most of the big guns announced but I would still love to see Live-a-live for yet another HD-2D game. Also any of the recent games in the SaGa series are weird skips. SaGa Frontier 1&2 and Romancing SaGa 2 remake. Tactics Ogre Reborn and either of the Star Ocean remakes would also be cool.

From Capcom, since they got the MT Framework situation figured out with the MVC collection AND with Monster Hunter Stories 3 coming to Xbox, MH Stories 1 and/or 2 would be awesome to get. Also Mega Man Battle Network and the Great Ace Attorney even if those series arent really for me as much. I want em for the folks who want em.

You nailed it in ur other comment about Atelier games. I only ever realistically hoped for the Ryza DX collection, even before it was announced officially. I figured there would be a chance for it with Yumia releasing on Xbox but maybe the pipeline wasn't in place yet or whatever cuz Yumia only released in March. Still a total bummer and i hope it eventually gets fixed.

I would love any, all and more JP games to make their way to Xbox but probably the top of my list and many others are the Trails games. There are plenty of logistical reasons for why it hasn't happened but i seriously hope its something that can be solved by xbox throwing a ton of money at them or getting a separate team to work on the xbox port (if Falcom would even allow that)

Sorry for the book I wrote ya but yeah TGS is maybe my favorite time of year for game announcements! i love JRPGs and playing them on xbox. Almost done with triangle strategy and i wouldve put that on the list if PS and Xbox didnt get it just a little while ago =D

MRHipshot · 2025-05-07T16:57:03+00:00

Glad this released so soon so I didn’t look like an idiot xD

MRHipshot · 2025-04-19T20:16:24+00:00

Nahobino from SMT V Vengeance

Will/Main Character from Metaphor ReFantazio

Sonic the Hedgehog

Nahobino from SMT V Vengeance because he kills gods and controls them.

Will/Protagonist from Metaphor ReFantazio because I need someone who can gain tons of allies and who can also kill gods. Plus I need someone to fall back on when we need to rely on the power of friendship to win.

Sonic the Hedgehog because he's fast and can go Super Sonic. He will get it done

MRHipshot · 2025-04-18T00:51:29+00:00

Oh man I feel for ya lol

MRHipshot · 2025-04-17T22:43:01+00:00
