What up peeps?

Shut the **** up.
People still use limewire? I just use direct downloads these days, so much quicker.
The fanbase is definitely split, before they played it but most that have seem to be enjoying it. One of them said "It's not a Final Fantasy game just because their are chocobo's" but she hasn't played it yet so she can shut up. There is one thing that confuses me. FFXIII really takes a while until the battle system fully opened up to us. Alright, it's something new so they streamlined it so it's easy for anyone to understand for newcomers or casual gamers. But at the same time it's one of the hardest Final Fantasy in recent years. I don't think they trusted people enough to get the grips with the system all that quickly. I think they could of benefited from having it open up earlier and have access 3 party members much sooner.
I'm like that 85% of the time.
Great read Soushirei. Personally I loved FFXIII. I say I'm in between on the groups, though I line more towards the second one. Story and characters are really important to me but I need good gameplay to help me through it. Thankfully I loved the battle system. This 'linearity' really helped the game in a gameplay sense. By having a limited the Crystarium during most the game it removed the need to grind and allowed bosses to be all about skill and not based on what level you are, making it a vast improvement. I'm surprised reviewers never picked up on it. This 'grind' is one thing they often complain about, so when Square actually sort it out they ignore it. It's funny how 50/50 this game is to people. Destructoid for example, Jim Sterling hated the game and gave it a 4/10. While Dale North said he would of given it a 9. I can see why people hate the game. Again to relate it to Dtoid, on one of their podcasts one of them said the game "fixes all the problems you have with J-RPG's but at the same time doesn't" (or something like that) and I can't help but sort of agree with it. Square really made a gamble changing what we expect in order to really get the narrative going. The absent of towns really made sense, why would a fugitive go about exploring in a town where they are being hunted. If they decided to be more traditional it would of broken the immersion. Also the 'linearity' actually helped remove the grind and improve the stories pacing, things that reviewers never mentioned. They demand change and when Square actually do it and completely change the JRPG standard they yell "IT'S CHANGED, MY GOD IT'S CHANGED" without really looking into why. I think that problem comes from the fact they don't have the time to actually look at in-depth with it. FFXIII is at least 40 hour game time not many journalists have so they end up rushing the game and base reviews on those first impressions without really looking into it. They A don't have the time to do it with all the other games they have to review and B if they did 'think' it would end up with a late review, something gaming sites don't want. This first impressions idea is why games like the original Uncharted rated so highly when really the game was average at best in retrospect.
Awesome song on an otherwise bad album.
No your not. I love Chrome
I f**king love bacon!
We are having a house party tonight, so I would have to be early evening (between now and 8)
Ah yes. I think that was a line in my immortal. Either way it's something I would say.
Oh that was funny beyond words. What reaction?
Oh Why can't I be less beautiful. *Stabs with steak*
And I loved doing the voices. I'm definitely doing more.
"I grabbed a steak and almost stuck it into my heart to commit suicide"
It is hilarious. It made my day. XD
Mind blown.
