Turns out making a direct sequel to a generally mediocre received game was not the play

>2 party members
It didn't fix shit, it just made it worse.

>make shitty game
>no one wants to play the sequels
Waow

the only good FF game released after X-2. Unfortunately it's tied to XIII so people will say the game is shit because of it
like this faggot here >>748167249 who asked gpt to tell him the differences and never actually played the game

>>748165103
they dumbed down the combat to shit
also the third party member being pokemon is retarded

>>748165103
it fixed issues then added others unfortunately. still worth playing unlike XIII

>>748165103
And then they tripled down with lightning returns lol.

FF13-2 has slightly larger maps at the expense of everything else being worse. Worse story, worse characters, worse pacing, worse music... Like you can tell this shit was made on a budget and recyled assets.

>>748170347
but to be clear, by Jrpg standards this is 10/10 game, by FF standards it's just trash. So is still worth playing for those with time to waste or nothing else to play.

>>748167249
did you stop playing after 5 minutes? you get your 3rd in the first town

>>748165103
FFLR was the only good game in the trilogy

>>748170347
>worse music
unfathomably dog shit taste

Caius alone makes XIII-2 a much better game than the first.

>>748165103
I riked it but only played it when it came out in my teens at a time where I was also pretty fine with XIII. I haven't really gotten around to replaying either and don't see myself going for LR, I feel like I'd scrutinise the games harder now but while my memory isn't great I must admit a surprising amount of them has nestled itself in my subconscious.
