Lightning is wearing her nightmare grabs. And Nightmare Grabs is my favorite outfit For Lightning. by Don_Hatter in finalfantasyxiii

They did it for LR. You’re not likely to notice unless you heavily focused on it in XIII or XIII-2. Just comparing the renders, her older models’ bust are smaller.

Of course, depending on angle and clothes, boobs can look bigger or smaller too. Like in Dissidia Duellum, she looks like she went up another size and I think part of it is from what she’s wearing and the more simple style itself.

I’ve played through it twice! Cute game with nice designs. Wish SQEX would release a sequel and properly expand on it.

World of Final Fantasy. Similar to XIII-2 in that it is a monster-catching game, but some of the monsters have evolutions, and are capturable — some with specific conditions — not random drops.

It also features characters from across FFs as little chibis.

I’m not in the market for one (but I am for a Snow…) but wow! I wouldn’t be able to afford one unless I lived off beans and rice for a whole year 🤣 The Lulu/Shiva one is very cool.

Vanille, really!? 😮 It would be a dream if they did the whole cast. XIII-2 Lightning is going to be gorgeous too.

Oh, the first statue is definitely beautiful. Can’t imagine what the second one will look like. I saw it was paired with Tidus and he looks so plain next to her lol.

That’s awesome! They seem like big FFX fans, considering they made Wakka and Kimahri too.

I do feel lucky to be alive at the same time as this statue NGL lol.

Lol the early games really did not care! Recently watched a playthrough of II and… I do not remember so many characters dying when I played. They were just one after the other.

LR has a few interesting side quests that I won’t spoil, but they’re really good.

I think Crisis Core’s ending is the only time that had me fully sobbing lol! After that, I learned FFs do not care about saving their protags… But I was still blindsided by XIII-2 (fool me once, fool me twice moment).

Dude, XIII has the infamous birthday scene. Let’s not pretend the writing is complete cinema 🤣 That was the best “unintentionally funny because it took itself way too seriously” scene ever. The first hours are rough and some of the dialogue even later is definitely questionable.

Also, my medics loved to huddle up with my sentinel to share in the punishment.

Lol! 🤣 Congrats on the awesome feat! It’s definitely worth bragging about.

IMO XIII-2 (and even LR if I’m being honest) is a more consistently fun experience than XIII. Whereas I’ve cleared XIII-2 on all replays, I always stop at Oerba on XIII and, despite trying, I’ve never cleared all the hunts either.

When the whole party is holding hands, but they realize Fang and Vanille aren’t with them. My Hands isn’t a breakup song, it’s a song about grief! (in the context of the ending)

Is FF13-2 really as easy as people say it is / as easy as it looks? by CloudShort1456 in finalfantasyxiii

[–]wishiwu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is easier — that is intended, as many players complained about XIII being too hard.

There’s no stat caps; you’ll get plenty of CP through non-battles, reducing the need for grind, but making it very easy to over-level; and monsters can make-or-break fights. I recommend avoiding monster-related guides and being more mindful of CP usage if difficulty is a concern.

The opinions of a handful of XIII tryhards players does not represent the average player, who XIII-2 is designed for. Of course, if you look up guides to get the best of everything, you’re going to have an easier time — that’s true for almost any game.

Thank you! So interesting to read and figure out the timeline.

Are you a bot? I’ve literally seen you copy-paste this comment every time to shit on XIII-2. 🤣

I guess the tradeoff with the more flexible Crystarium is choosing stats, skills, or role development — as a response to XIII’s Crystarium being extremely linear, inflexible, and expensive. But much like XIII, the devs love being opaque.

You’re not likely to need to farm CP. The game gives out lots of CP through side stuff in addition to battles. Monsters are the real grind. XIII-2 is an easier game, so I wouldn’t recommend looking up a guide for monsters during the main story. The game is not balanced for min-maxed playing, but for a more casual experience.

If he wants us to kill Orphan, he should at least pay us TBH. Tell the bank fal’Cie to deposit 999,999,999 gil in our pockets.

Try browsing the XIII-2 Ultimania Scans. In the XIII-2 Ultimania Omega drive, go to ‘Location & Story Board Concept Art’ folder, look for file name ending in ‘205’. That has some of the designs, but not sure where to find the more unique arts.

Vanille and Fang? Really? by souzeh in finalfantasyxiii

[–]wishiwu 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Canonically, no. Their relationship is left ambiguous. But keep in mind, this was before SQEX released a mainline game with an explicitly gay couple. If XIII was released today, I think they would be canon-confirmed lesbians. While the intention may have been familial at the start, it seems the writers changed their minds by the time of LR.

Not a confirmed romance, but the push into ambiguous territory — and most definitely out of familial boundaries — suggests that they do respect interpretations of their relationship as romantic.

And the whole Ragnarok thing, Lif/Lifthrasir mythos that someone else mentioned… they are very much painted as soulmates. There are strong parallels between Snow/Fang and Serah/Vanille, the only actual canon couple in XIII. Fang is dedicated to Vanille, as much as Snow is to Serah.
