There is no game other than Final Fantasy XIII that attempts to merge tales of Norse Mythology with Hot Wheels-like Michael Bay Transformers. No game has all of the pieces and parts that Final Fantasy XIII has in a single package. It has been THREE YEARS since I last touched the game, and I still can recite specific boss battles, character moments, and mechanics as if I played it yesterday. Yet, Final Fantasy XIII is a game I still think about to this day. Overall, I think Final Fantasy XIII is a lousy, miserable time when it is all said and done. Finally, its pacing issues are among the worst I have ever seen in a big-budgeted video game. The mechanics are all over the place even if you enjoy the combo system or its rhythm-based combat, the Crystarium is boring as fuck. Less than half of its ensemble cast "works" with its decision to go with Lightning as its protagonist, a highly questionable one. The plot in that game is incomprehensible, and it has entire story threads left lying in abandon unresolved forever. Those were heady days indeed, and with 20/20 hindsight bias in my favor, I stand by everything I said in the final episode of my retrospective of Final Fantasy XIII.
At one point, I even went as far as to suggest Final Fantasy XIII "killed" the franchise. Part 1: Final Fantasy XIII, In Hindsight Well, here we go again!Īs many of you know, I am not a fan of Final Fantasy XIII.
