Gameblogging: FFXIII-2 (for real)

Are you prepared? I'm going to do it this time. I will actually select New Game this time.

slayerofgod suggests that my stupid DLC will be available once I am playing Serah, so we'll see.

The comments will contain some spoilers, but please do not add spoilers of your own.

/creating new save data and everything

/this is not a drill

The pretty clock thingy on the loading screen~

"That time was lost, yet time continued onward."

Oh wow, that is just. That is a fantastic way to start this game. Wow.

Lightning praying, are we doing the opening scene again? This time with voices? And Etro reference! That's a name I have now heard!

Okay, evil Cloud and Aerith. It seems like a bad idea to put her in water if she's half-made-of-flame. Aerith's name is Yeul.

Lightning is a warrior goddess. Sounds about right.

"NOW WE CROSS SWORDS." This is an internet meme, isn't it?

Random theory: it's not really Lightning, it just looks exactly like her. (Hey they did it in FFX-2.)

Evil Cloud's name is Caius, and it sounds like all he does so far is spout off really dramatic one-liners.

Her hair really is pretty. /likes itttt

Wow they really did just do the entire opening sequence, complete with logo-ing. /watches more

Evil Cloud turns into-- a fal'Cie! Or something. I don't know. An Eidolon? Anyway, he just kicked Lightning's ass. :( I do not approve.

In-game animation and ATB tutorial!

Evil Cloud is credited as "Chaos Bahamut" in his fal'Cie/Eidolon/magic genie form.

I can already hear the reviewers: THE ONLY THING WORSE THAN TIME TRAVEL TO ADD TO A GAME IS QUICK TIME EVENTS-- /shot

Quick-time events greatly decrease my ability to make comments.

Well, this is pretty bad-ass. Gotta say. It's always nice to SEE badassness instead of just being informed of it. 8D

Imma make all these comments with my default icon 8D

lol ♥

Lightning sees Sora, whose name is Noel Kreiss, pulls a crystal from her chest, and then throws it at him? Meanwhile my total domination of Evil Cloud is not sticking.

Sora came here because he prayed for a miracle. Sure, why not.

I actually understand the "From Valhalla, I can see everything" idea. I'm just waiting for the bridge now. (I expected Lightning's response to be, "I did the same thing." But it seems like praying for a miracle is something that would cause people to disappear all the damn time, and would've depleted most of our cast from FFXIII. :|a )

That was fun. But I don't trust it. [lurk]

Yeah, 5 stars. How do you like me now, Easy Mode?!?

I like Lightning's armor. And her hair.

Bring Serah to me. :|a :|a :|a

Well, Lightning clearly knows a bunch of things that we don't BECAUSE YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN IS A SUCKY ANSWER, LIGHTNING

Thanks for all the reminders that I'm in the middle of the action and I have no idea what's going on, game. That was my favorite part about FFXIII.

WE HAVE ACHIEVED MOOGLES.

THE WEAPON IS A MOOGLE

OMG

THE WEAPON IS A MOOGLE

WHAT

Sora is so angry at Evil Cloud for someone who presumably has no idea where he is or what's going on! Good work being an adaptive protagonist. It's a valuable skill.

lol omg episode title on the beach, classy

okay so

Lightning is dead, but we can fix this.

So far it's semi-okay...

Wow, hello Nomura Tetsuya. I MIGHT HAVE FORGOTTEN YOU WERE INVOLVED WITH THIS PROJECT. (I refer to the random floating words.)

...All of this is pretty confusing. :|a Serah is experiencing familial shared memories? And so she remembers the future that's going to be changed-- WHAT

THE NEW OOC OUTFIT GLOWED INTO EXISTENCE

Good to know Serah didn't decide to become a stripper on her own, I guess? Whaaat.
