This thread is not only for you my sister, it's for everybody here!!

Blank will post her impressions when she is ready to and not before. Bothering her like this for something she doesn't actually have to do will not facilitate matters.

Thanks, Naunau. Calm the heck down, staffpeoples. If I don't have time/don't feel like answering a question, all I have to do is not type a reply. ^^; Esagan, please read to the bottom of the post~
First of all, real trailer description here (http://finalfantasy-xiii.net/2008/12/21/jump-festa-fuller-trailer-description.html). These are my opinions and conjecture only. XD I didn't post that kind of stuff in news cause it's not really news.. it's just thoughts.
1) Graphics
I'm pleased. You can definitely tell where things are pre-rendered and where they're ingame, but the in-game does look very good. I like the style much better than I did FF12's in-game, which looked somehow dirty-faced to me.. compare everybody's favorite character in CG (http://www.ffinsider.net/final-fantasy-12/pix/vaan.jpg)to in-game (http://www.game-attitude.com/media/images/maj0205/Ps2_FFXII_4.jpg). XD Lightning is the one we see the most in-game close-ups of, but I can't remember any other character looking 'off.'
2) Characters
I like the new black dude. He seems like he has a brain. The asian girl does too. Despite her lack of clothing compared to the other characters, she doesn't give me dumb bimbo vibes. I don't get any airhead vibes from this party, despite the amount of light-hearted characters. Goggles boy seems like he could be an interesting dork-type or he could get annoying, but for now I'm giving him the benefit of he doubt. I do find his speech quirk amusing, but I hope he doesn't overdo it. Also, I don't know how they'll handle it when they give him an English script. He seems like he's kinda 'along for the ride' type of laid back, but also complains about things when they're going bad, although he doesn't seem the type to run even if he does complain.
3) Gameplay
Very, very hard to tell from a trailer, since you can't see how moving, attack selection, etc. is done just from watching a movie. The menus are massive and take up a large portion of the bottom of the screen, although they don't have a solid background, so they don't block your view terribly. The menus in this trailer look like the ones in the V-Jump scans. I had a very hard time figuring out what was going on in battle, but lots of multi-hit attacks were shown.
Something I'm really hoping for is that the character shown with Lightning after Snow falls is not a main character, but is usable in combat. I want to see some normal people in combat. The whole 6-or-7-capable-fighters-in-the-entire-world-and-nobody-else-can-help-you-in-ingame-combat thing is just silly. Civilian fighters please~
Snow + Shiva had a LOT of options in their menu, but the only two I caught were Diamond Dust and Engine. I hope all the summons have lots of attacks.
I can't remember seeing any of Lightning's gravity based attacks /in-game/. They featured rather prominently in cutscene battle though, particularly on the train. They look really cool. I want to use them.
Lightning also uses a heavy bazooka-like gun on the train (I assume she took it from a soldier). I wonder if we're going to get the option to equip characters with other weapons than their trademarks? I really hope they /have/ trademark weapons.. Lightning's gunsword would make me really sad if she didn't have weapon-specific attacks to go with it. It seems like she does though..
Gameplay seemed very much turn-based to me, but it was hard to tell whether the other characters in battle were just waiting on timers or if they have to actually wait for the active character to finish attacking.
4) Reactions of people there in CMT
Japanese people have some incredible poker faces. I can't remember a single audible reaction from the audience either time I went in. The two guys I met from NeoGaf seemed pretty calm.. or confused. Not sure which. I don't believe they'd been in the CMT before though. I can't remember clapping, but that doesn't mean it didn't happen.
5) Overall Opinions
Hm... I'm pretty hopeful. I think everybody knows I'm a Versus fan, but after this trailer, I'm really looking forward to 13 a lot, too. I like the introduction of other characters as aware participants in the combat. It's always bothered me that in FF, oftentimes the rest of the world has no idea the party just saved their butts from extinction/doom/enslavement/etc. I'd love to see some Suikoden-style army building plot, even if most non-main-character characters don't appear outside a base-type setting.
Pure conjecture, but I'm starting to think that these blue stone golem things (http://finalfantasy-xiii.net/media/scans/famitsu/80.jpg) are also our Rushi (or heavily connected), and that Sera may have been turned into one?? I feel like if she was actually dead, Snow wouldn't be talking about saving her, but since Lightning seems to think it's hopeless, something pretty bad must have happened. Like I said before, also appearing in the scenes with talk of Sera is the big green crystal/statue thing we see in the green area with the train rails where the majority of the fighting in the trailer takes place. I can't decide what I think Sera is exactly, the dialogue was very confusing there, but it seems like she was transformed rather than killed.. not.. suuuuure..... ~_~;
That's it.. I think. XD
Dear Esagan, I understand that you just can't /wait/ to hear my personal opinions and review of FFXIII as shown thus far in trailers and don't have anything better to do than hang around threads which ask me to post so you can read them as quickly as possible, but I do have other things I do besides write 24/7 for your benefit, especially when it's not news. <3 Thanks for your understanding.
Also, I was the one who told Nau to delete it, because it was totally unnecessary and not relevant to FFXIII. Thanks for not derailing threads. If you really need to continue the conversation in this direction, let's find a more appropriate location for it.

First of all, I don't really care about XIII/VS, don't believe me? Ask Neal, he knows I don't particuarlly care. My point was simply, it doesn't take that long.
Second of all, I just imagined my place in Blanks position, and quite honestly,it's not that difficult and doesn't take that long :wub:

I am mostly interested in the battle system, people at neogaf who have visited Jump Festa say it looks amazing. Does it really? I mean how it looks, not how it actually plays (this is what obviously cant be answered now)

I know this is a hard question but how many party menber can batle together? 3 like previous (3D) Final Fantasys or more than 3 party menbers?
Also....in-game graphics shown were better than in-game graphics show in Cloud DVD trailler(in the end).
Thanks for all, Blank.

How it looks... you mean the style of how it's set up? Fairly normal in terms of amazingness.
As for how fun it looks like it will be to play, I think they have a good idea. Depending on how long it takes commands to 'load in' and happen, it could suffer from input slowness like FFX where you put in all your commands and then wait a while, or long waits between putting in commands like FFXII while you watch over your characters and wait for you to actually have to do something, but if they space out your attacks with enemy attacks well, I think it could be lots of fun.
I disagree with the people who say it looks FF12-esque. I can't see how Gambits or repeating commands (such as auto-attack) could be put into this system. When I played FF12, auto-attacking was my staple. I feel like this game will require much more involvement from the player at all times, which may or may not be tedious depending on the amount of standard "Attack" command usage. If they have tons of low-cost/no-cost special attacks, I think it would make the system quite a bit of fun.

Thanks for all, Blank.
I saw what I think was three in the same party, but it looked like there could be room for another member's name in the party list. It could just be blank space. I can't vouch for what a "full party" is as it's always possible that they squash the names and make a new row for you to have more than 3-4. XD
But if I had to make a guess, I would say highly unlikely to have more than 4, most likely to be 3.
Yes, ingame looked better to me than in the CLOUD DVD. Also, a lot more was going on at the same time than in the CLOUD DVD in terms of battle, with more than just Lightning in the party.

Vanille didn't fight in the trailer that I can remember, sorry. T_T; The gun Snow gave her wasn't the strange-looking stick-like thing we've seen her carry in the scene where she's standing on a cliff in Pulse. If I had to make a guess, I'd say she's a ranged fighter of some sort.. Hard to tell if she's fought much before Snow gives her the gun..

Yes and yes. XD I specifically wrote down that she was using a gun. I can't remember if it was unique looking or not. Also, it was at some distance, so I didn't have much detail time ~_~;
Random question, I don't even know if it was in the trailer. Did you see any transitions into battle? Did the screen shatter or anything like that, or was it all seamless and just occur in the same area you run around in? Pretty much, was it like Star Ocean (touch enemy, transition, taken to a different screen) or Chrono Trigger (near enemy, battle starts automatically)?

I really appreciate your kindness and your time for writing this ^_____^ you helped me alot to know so many things!!!

Calm down, please. XD
And I'm not sure. I feel like a party of 3 girls )(Lightning, Vanille, Asian girl) and 3 boys (Snow, black dude, goggles) is pretty balanced. I don't see why we would or should get more than we have for main characters. I prefer a small and well fleshed out cast myself, though.

Oh!! I see, so as I thought asian woman, goggles and black dude will be in the main party....hmmm...and yeah it shows a balanced party there in terms of number of males and females...on the other hand I don't really see those weird new characters attractive, I really hope the asian woman and the guy with goggles to be replaced with some worthful characters or at least not being in the main party...coz really I don't like them >< for unknown reasons..I hate them..

Ah hm.. the new characters are definitely pretty weird, but they're not as weird as they sound, promise. XD Except maybe goggles boy, who seems to be the "quirky" one, with his "ja nai ssu" speech pattern. I thought I saw him on the floor pitching a mini fit at one point during the fighting scenes, but I'm not sure. >_>;
Hard to tell what kind of characters any of the three new ones will end up being, since we don't have any background information on them, nor any indication of why they're there helping Lightning, Vanille and Snow in the first place.

Yeah I agree, actually I have to wait to see some more information and some pics of them in order to be fair .....but as you said " why they're there helping Lightning, Vanille and Snow in the first place " that's the key and I hope the answer will be they are just side characters not playable characters in the main party...except for the black dud because he seems a little bit attractive to me LOL.....

BlankChocobo
Dec 22 2008, 03:37 PM
Tell us more about the feeling. That scene you saw in the trailler was sad, it was dramatic? It was a strong moment.?
The scenes at the train were really energetic and chaotic. Lots of fighting, lots of people being grateful for being freed and wanting to help fight too. Uplifting, until the heavily armored airship came along and shot down at them, where Snow fell and a lot of people died.
After that, it kind of goes way downhill, and by the end things are looking bad. The scenes at the frozen lake had a lot of frustration going on. Bad things are happening over there. Lightning and Snow are both near tears, which is really shocking to look at since nowhere else have we really seen them remotely sad. When Vanille is over there, she looks pretty reserved too, compared to her normal bubbly self. Whatever it is she says she's seen before (object not shown in trailer), it doesn't seem to be a good thing.. Maybe that's the place where Lightning and Snow lost Sera?
What clothing Style did the characters in the trailer wear?
EDIT: The non-main characters had very plain colored clothing. Lots of tans, browns and greys. Shirts and pants. Some of them were wearing the prisoners' robes. I presume those were ones who escaped the train when Lightning and the black dude brought it down. There were many others wearing more normal clothes though. I wonder if those people came with Lightning and company when they went out to hijack the train in the first place?

Lol, what a question. XD How am I supposed to answer that.....
Well, I'm a Versus girl, but even if I wasn't, I'd have to be feeling pretty brave to call a game I haven't played the 'ultimate' of my favorite series. I'll say I'm 'optimistic' :D
It looks pretty promising in terms of plot, which is what counts most for me in FF. I expect much dark theme-ness, which is many bonus points.
If they play their cards right and make a battle system that feels fast paced, I think they could do really well with this "chain attacks" idea. Lots of numbers and flashy attacks strung together always look nice. <3

Hi, i'm kinda new to this whole writing in forums thing (i mostly just read what other have written) but i have question to Blankchocobo: Graphicly, does this game look better than Lost Odyssey? Or is there any game that you could compare with just graphicly, because i dont think that there's much one can say about gameplay in a game that yet has not been played... and matter of fact i'm kinda disapointed of the whole comand-menu filling half the screen, i much prefered the battle screen that was shown in the first trailer...

I think it looks better than Lost Odyssey. I've only played about five hours into LO, though. I get a major FFX style feeling from the graphics, but the ingame and pre-rendered are both a ton better than that.
I was not disappointed, although it was hard to really gauge the ingame graphics because most of the ingame fighting was viewed from a fair-to-decently-far distance.

thanx for the (really fast) reply:) ... i'm really glad that it has some FFX style feeling about it because FFX is yet my favourite RPG (if not favourite game)
I've just finished LO and beside the story that is kinda predictable i think that they made a really good job with the graphics in everyway, so to hear that FFXIII looks better is nice to hear (just what i expect of an FF game)
just one last question, its totaly just about your thoughts on this: The weapons that they have, do you think you will be able to change them or just upgrade them? Because this is something i found very anoying in LO, you started of with this coolest swords for the sword-users and then when you bought better ones they looked a hundred times uglyer...... i just hope that you get to have Lightnings gunsword all the way through the game... and did they change the look of it cause it looks somewhat diffrent/better??
sorry, it got kinda longer than i thought ^_^

I hooooooooooooooope we see the same weapons.. or at least they keep the designs interesting =_=; I don't want to see those dumb soldiers' guns replacing Lightning's gunblade /ever/.
It seems like it would be hard to justify not allowing Lightning to use the bazooka she picks up and uses in a cutscene, or not allow any of the gun-wielding other characters to use the generic guns they use in the train fighting scenes..
Guns and other weapons are just so freely available, I can't imagine we won't see weapon changes, unless there's something special about the main characters' weapons, which is entirely possible. Perhaps their powers are connected to them? XD Both Lightning's gunblade and Vanille's stick... thing... are very unique looking. I wonder if they're part of their 'mission'? I hope~

I despised the lack of fun side quests in FF12 too. XD I love to watch the storylines all tie up when you start to reach the end of the game, like the game is telling you that it's all coming to an end~ I'm hoping the same.
What did you think about the new characters? Did they have someone who looks childish, very calm and mystery etc.?

Not really.. the youngest looking two are goggles boy and Vanille. I posted the rest of my feelings about the characters in my first big reply. XD I guess in a way you could say Vanille is childish, calm and mysterious. She's obviously wanted by a lot of people, pretty childish looking, and has yet to panic or freak out, even though we've seen Lightning and Snow both lose it~

She is wearing a bra-like thing(I believe my notes say it was purple, but I can't really read that part... ^^;), but she's also wearing a shirt... or part of one. I think it was white. XD
The shirt is cut to show a lot of stomach. She's also wearing somewhat loose, long sleeves (not shown in above image) that come from I-don't-know-where cause there's definitely not anything on the major part of her shoulders, since everybody could see the tattoo there.
Suffice to say, she seems to be wearing more than Rikku, but has the same should-you-really-be-running-around-a-battlezone-in-a-bikini? feeling. XD;

4) Reactions of people there in CMT
Japanese people have some incredible poker faces. I can't remember a single audible reaction from the audience either time I went in. The two guys I met from NeoGaf seemed pretty calm.. or confused. Not sure which. I don't believe they'd been in the CMT before though. I can't remember clapping, but that doesn't mean it didn't happen.
Wait, I read another trailer impression at some other website. http://forums.ffonline.com/showthread.php?p=1219125
They claim that the audience was overwhelmed. They wrote that there was 'loud' clapping at the end of the trailer. And you say that you couldn't 'remember' any of the above...?:shifty:
Hmm...blankchocobo where you partially deaf at some points? Or where you trying to not overhype us? You said you don't even remember reactions? Makes the trailer sound....meh in a way. X3 LOL:lol:
Maybe your ears couldn't handle the epicz.:rolleyes:

She visited the cmt the day after and maybe there was any clapping or she was too busy recording trailer in her mind for noticing general reactions XD
I heard that it was only the very first showing that got loud applause. I thought it was a Japanese custom that making no noise at all is more respectful than clapping.

----If I were Blank, I wouldn't give a damn about how the audience reacted. It wouldn't matter if I'm there for the remembering of the details of the trailers. "To not remember" is different from "did not hear". Reactions are of variety especially if it's the second day. A lot of those people probably came back a second time so I doubt they'd be as overwhelmed as the day before. Also, it's not like it's really public anyway so the reactions would be a lot less worth notable if say most of the visitors from the day before came back in.
As she said, "I can't remember clapping but that doesn't mean it didn't happen."
