This is the strongest of all Final Fantasy characters. No other FF character even holds a candle to this character. Her name is Lightning. Say something nice about her.

8 years later I still cannot get over the buyer's remorse I've had from buying FFXIII day one.

I never felt real buyer's remorse until that day. Before then, when I usually didn't like a game it was whatever i just dropped it and moved on but FFXIII was different. It should be imprinted in your fucking brain as the results of overhyping a video game for years upon years only for it to be SHIT.

It wasn't that bad. FF15 was way worse. And it didn't even have Lightning despite taking place on the same world.

We actually have FFXIII apologists as a common thing. Well it has been 8 years and many of you have shit taste so you don't think FFXIII is all that bad.

Her game has a decent OST. Too bad about the rest of it.

Not that guy but it's pure trash. XV being shitty doesn't excuse XIII from being a unmitigated mess of unlikable bullshit long before it.

XIII hype death was so catastrophic it bled over into three other games. XIII-2, LR, and XV all suffered losses from the overhype of 13.

Of course there are retards that like FFXIII. XIII claimed an entire fucking console generation. XIII and it's sequels were the only non-MMO mainline FF games that generation had.

Lightning is ______?

i will praise the creator guy got to make a series for his waifu make her that strong then bring her to the real world

It’s not surprisingly a lot of people didn’t like 13. I mean a lot of people don’t understand the nuances of a character with depth either, so I shouldn’t be surprised. I’m kind of happy it’s mentally above the plebs who usually makes up the users of the medium, because it usually means genuine discussions tend to be deeper and more meaningful.

Bruh, how do you fail basic history this bad? 14 was so bad that Toriyama was forced to revisit his world in order to salvage the MMO. If anything, Toriyama is a hero.

Lighting is strong, but literally NOTHING can beat Tidus using Quick Hit for 9999 dmg like 10 times a turn

>FF directors get asked what their favorite FF game is when Dissidia NTR came out

Was it mental illness?

Lightning doesn’t have turns. She’s ruled by both atb’s but acts using an action game’s rule set.

FF15 universe had stronger character building and a more solid cast. Better world too. Also 7, 8, 9, and 10 blow both 13 and 15 away with their cast.

Pointless cast members don’t even deserve to be part of a “greatest cast” list.

XIII made Lightning, the undisputed goddess of FF and two more games were devoted just to finishing her story. Explain that if it was so bad.

Half the cast in 13 was bloat

XIII suffered from being advertised as lightnings game, yet there were entire chapters in the game where you did not play as lightning (although she still remained essential to the story, at least). XIII-2 does this but worse, even if it finally shows her as the Angel she is. It took a third game, LR, to finally give Lightning the place she deserves, as the true Goddess of Final Fantasy.

She is after the end of LR

The entire cast was integral to both plot and characters. It’s the only game to do so to.

That's why I self-insert as Hope

Me too.

XV really is worse, holy shit its like Hunt Down the Freeman-tier. I'm being totally serious, what an abhorrent waste of a game.

How do you figure that's bait? FF13 was a huge step up for the series, it had buffs debuffs and status all be useful for one of the first times in the series. It had all sorts of tricks like atb refresh and string cancelling, buffering a move with a Paradigm shift and other stuff, it's hugely above the rest of mainline FF games.

Do you like it when she's nurturing?

FFXIII being bad/polarizing is a common opinion. To the degree where it impacted XV's design choices.

Let it go, user. It’s just accepted that most people aren’t smart enough to grasp XIII.

Nips have excellent taste in everything but hips and thigh proportions. For some reason they like the teen boy lanklet vibe. Probably because their women have no bones.

The only part of that statement I agree with is that Lightnings Game less popular than 1
