    It's too bad that hard mode is locked behind ng+, because the build options are a lot more interesting. With ng+ stats it ends up being easier than a first play on normal, though.

    This seems honestly great if you can get past the nonsensical plot.

    An insane video game, in which Lightning grapples with PTSD while trying to save a mostly despondent society from a Majora's Mask"esque" doomsday clock scenario. I don't expect this thing to ever be canonized, but I love it. Very pertinent themes.

      yeah I think I can appreciate a flawed batshit game that shoots for the stars more than a bland game with less flaws. This is a far more memorable experience than most JRPGs out there.

    I'm in the middle of this game after starting the trilogy about 5 months ago. What a damn ride. The strange plotting (starting in XIII-2, as the first game is in fact coherent and cohesive) is a constitutive element.

    more balls-to-the-wall than Modern Warfare 2 and as occasionally softly touching as Braid

      although gamey-er for sure,

      as a throwback/celebration of the series, I prefer this to Final Fantasy IX.

      but unfortunately misses maybe 50% of (mostly major) story beats.
      side-quest and world building galore.

    wtf is she wearing on the cover? that has to be one of the worst female character wardrobe designs I've ever seen. the weird-ass corset, the shiny skin-tight breast-covering turtleneck, the white umm fabric hanging from her waist with some leather zippered... things..., the half-armored arms. fucking hell. girl wears kneecaps but couldn't be bothered to cover her groin outside of some spandex.

    Combat is great and the game structure is unique and well done. Game's got plenty of flavor for sure.
