Hmmm...

I'm skeptical. But if they're adding towns I am more than willing to give it a try.

I don't like Lightning's costume though - it's not very "sci-fi" like costumes from FFXIII.

Whyyy are they wasting time on a sequel to a game no-one really liked when they could be, y'know, focusing on getting Versus XIII done? |D Silly Square Enix.

They should just remake the older ones instead of bringing out sequels. =/

I kinda like the prospect of it.
Either I enjoy a game and continue to play it or I don't and completely ditch it.
I enjoyed FFXIII so I'd totally give it a try. Lightning looks sexy albeit odd but I'm curious as
to who that guy is?

Oh and I'm dubious about the story.

Uh? Was this really necessary in terms of story? Was the game that well received? I thought it was the opposite, I wasn't expecting this at all. I guess slap a 'Final Fantasy' title on it and it'll make money (otherwise they wouldn't be doing this).

I do like Lightning's armour, but it seems out of place (assuming it's the same world and not ANOTHER DIMENSION or DREAM WORLD or some such thing). I don't like the logo as much as I usually do, the balance looks off.

@Thread;; I mean remakes of 7,8,9. I don't care for the old ones, they've had enough remakes and look good as they are.

Think of it as a filler game...they're purposely making you wait in my opinion.

Hmm. I disagree with the notion of remakes for old FFs, or any old game for that matter. There isn't really much you could do for them and even if there was, I reckon it'd be taking away the magic factor of the original. As for graphics and/or voice acting? Games didn't need spectacular graphics back then and they still don't need them now. It's just now that technology's come such a long way, we're lucky enough to be able to access it if we want it. As for voice acting, might I suggest the Visual Productions subforum of the VAA? Plenty of wonderful fandubs out there. (VII is fandubbed to death, Shudo-Ranmaru's VIII fandub, Actorman's IX fandub, etc. etc...)

On a more on-topic note. I am a little skeptical. (Then again nowadays I am skeptical when I hear about most new Square sequel-related releases, ha! Now whose fault is that, hmm?) Apparently the story is Lightning trying to find a way to bring Fang and Vanille back (hey, this sounds remarkably like X-2...)

In terms of development:

I'm all for square enix actually making a new IP again. They need to take a break for like, 5 years.

...Interesting. I quickly flicked over the name to look at the picture again to remind myself of what the looks like. THe name popped into my head, but instead of it being XIII-2, the name X-2 popped into my head. XD
Oh dear.
They've really gotta move on from XIII(and start Versus. 8D).

</totally useless post> xD;

Hm, Cons set aside, I really liked XIII

They might be making this to improve XIII's reputation or something? >_>;;

I remember playing X-2, which didn't impress me as much as X, so HOPEFULLY this time around square is doing this in response to the criticism.
