Final Fantasy Versus XIII - "But... the world is ever-changing."

[Wehrmacht]

considering the story is supposed to be about MISERY and TRAGEDY yeah i think melodrama is a given

[Chrono Mizaki]

My God! It's like you're reading my mind.

Yeah, Hitler was the best man. I'm still sad that he died though. If he was alive, today would've been wonderful!

[blacksamurai2]

I wouldn't. I know next to nothing about the story the characters or the battlesystem to say I want it over KH3. The only reason why I would want this over KH3 is because its supposed to be OMFG SO DARKKKKK AND TRAGIK!!!!!!!!!

KH Story is retconned beyond comparison.

Exactly. Just think of all the Anti-Semitic holidays we missed out on pete:< but alas.

Don't you mean comprehension?

I expect Versus' story to be clich&#233; because it's a Nomura game. It doesn't bother me but some people are probably going to hate it because of that.

[Hamster Lord]

I read somewhere it'd kinda be like Romeo and Juliet.

Yeah, me too, even though he said this plot would be more 'realistic'. It may be different from most FF games, but for RPGs in general having a more realistic plot isn't anything new. Tales of the Abyss did this (with the plot at least), and pretty well at that.

[Nyangoro]

I don't mind cliche so long as it's at least executed well.

*crosses fingers*

Well, that's a good thing then. One of the biggest reasons Final Fantasy X is my favorite to date is because of Tidus and Yuna's relationship. I thought that blonde woman in the trailers reminded me of Aeris...

Well Since Nojima is Scenario Writer I have no worries.

And @Loke13: No.

Not really, KH days had the most hollow, forced "misery" and "tragedy" possibly in the history of RPGs.


Then again FFv13 isn't KH days.

i thought that was because of the Shakespearean quotes from the trailer :/

Actually it's just assumptions from people. The quote is from Hamlet and because of that people thought that Versus will be like R+J because Noctis and Stella are from different kingdoms/families and they "hate" each other (even though that's not confirmed I believe) and Stella and Noctis are obviously have some sort of love connection going on (even though Nomura said there won't be that much romance in the game) so it gives off the R+J vibe to it.

hmm for now, we might as well assume that assumption is right heh. but if it is true, heck what a great cliche that would be..

[LongLiveLife]

Well, 'dark and realistic' is what we're going for, so I doubt we'll be seeing any melodrama or love suicides. I hope.
