Wow, V6 already. Congrats.

Been playing FF 13 for more than 50 hrs now, and up till Chapter 11 already. Now doing some monster hunting before going to the Oerba!



Gil is low. You don't get gil for winning. You get them from selling the components you get from the monsters.



So far playing for over 50 hours (between 2 to 6 hr play sessions each) and no problem. Not sure where you here complains from.

Upgrade only requires 1 adamantite from axis blade to enkindler. And Yes you can buy at R & D depot.

Been reading this forum and I'm damn impress with those who spend 70+ hours (or even 100+). I'm gonna go for my first platinum here as well but only doing 50+ hours so far and now deciding whether to move on to chapter 12 or go back to gran pulse and farm some more.

Yeah agree. If you want to transform any weapon you just need to use the 1 unit of the right component. Of course need to max out weapon firstlah.

If it's the limited edition guide book then I think it's worth it cause it has hardcover and some additional info like backstory, etc.

However if its the normal one you may want to think twice. I've read through the book, and it is not as detailed as some of the gamefaqs. It also does not try to teach you how to get 5 stars for the missions but just basic tactics. Eg it keeps saying use Delta Attack / Mystic Tower combo when I tend to just pummel with Relentless Assault and quick Combat Clinics, thereby getting better timings. Smart Bomb is also good way to go.

My advice stick to the gamefaqs unless its the limited edition, or just have a good read

True, read about this tactic. Issue is you have to finish some of the earlier missions first before reaching the final one. I don't like to re-do missions again so I'd go with the deceptisol or use pre-emptive strike strategy. Right now have already completed the first 30 missions with 5 stars with just this strategy. Also trying not to use Vanille's Death strategy just to get a quick clean (except for my first fight with the Zinitra as I don't want to trudge too far from Vallis Media again) .

Congrats, I just finished that about the same time as well. Took me bout half hour and 3 tries to get 5 stars. Seriously this must be one of the toughest bosses since can't spam death on him.

Just finished Mission 63. Going after the final mission now so I can go back to fight Orphan for another trophy.

Need more hours just to farm for Gil which is the most longest time consuming thing to do.

Great debate on turn-based vs action based RPG guys. I like both having played Dragon Age & FF 13 though I consider FF 13 a bit of a hybrid because there is a time-based factor to input your commands as quickly as possible.

One thing developers should do especially for turn based games this days is how to automate actions faster so rpgers can do grinding faster. Eg a macro / shortcut function that remembers all the previous actions to repeat would be good.

Also, can TS update the 1st page on the upcoming FFXIII-2? Nice to know what are the CEs available since it will be here in 3 weeks, instead of trawling through all 51 pages

Wats the price of the game?

Sorry, can I check is there a version where Japanese voice with English subtitle? The coming one is all Japs right and no english subtitle.

Prefer this edition instead of just pure english. (like Yakuza!)

No, no I prefer the one with Japanese VA and English subs. I did read some of the forumers wanting to get the Jap versions.

Is the HK ones / R3 ones out in Dec 15? Or do I have to wait longer together with the full English ones?

ah ic. wakarimashita. arigato gozaimasu

Um i think all the action menu and item names are in english. makes no sense if jap right? someone correct me if i'm wrong.

really. I can't understand chinese also but that sounds bad.

I think all monsters/summons are quite similar. Eg bahamuts, odins, etc.

Anyway, from this thread i guess the game must be a vast improvement over FF13, and the storyline really makes me itch to play the game. Waiting for the Jap voice / eng subtitle version. Played the FF13 english one but feel got not enough kick compared to jap voice (like Yakuza!)

Holy Cow!!! So kawaii!!! Two tone PS3 with a Mog on it!!!

I don't know why the PS3 sets only put 1 character on it. Would prefer if there is Serah playing with the Mog

I want Lightning / Serah / Fang / Vanille wallpaper / theme

Wow!!! Have the Lightning / Serah version on my PS3 now. More more more!!!
