FFXIII

Isn't Vanille a little autistic? That's what makes her cute

Stop using Auto-Battle, retard.

you realize you control only one of three characters, right? retard

A bit depressed and suicidal (canon) due to the events leading up to the game, yes.

i never can get enough of vanille

That doesn't excuse using Auto-Battle on your lead.

i can save her

Then switch her to lead position to micromanage her.

I'm already micromanaging someone more important

Then deal with it scrublord. This is already an easy game.

he bricked his party members AI because he went too far in the christarium

OOPS time to uninstall I guess

It's time
Time to post Vanille

No. Despite ff12 having a robust gambit system for programming party members, ff13 gives you no such options. You just have to leave it to their AI. The best thing to do is to make the sab or syn your lead character so you can control it directly

Wish a remaster would come out with features like gambit, would improve the game a lot

poison

But that's the best spell in the entire game, anything else can be beaten to death by syn/sab/rav and then com/rav/rav after Sazh gives you Haste.

The only characters who require manual imputs to be the best characters in the game are Sazh between chapter 11 and early post game because Blitz spam with those pistols equivalent to a maxed out tier 3 weapon for the low cost of 60% of your max HP, and the Fang who surpasses him right before the end of post game because Bravera and Faithra require manual timed imput to not be complete garbage

13 looks so good and it didnt even use the PBRmeme, I just dont get why games dont look like that in current_year

can someone post some vanille's legs?

redhead

pigtails

barely any porn

She has decent amount by 2010s standards, but gachashit has distorted those numbers so much that it looks like nothing( and that's a good thing)

i love hitting army of one just as the stagger gauge fills and shifting to com during the anim

Vanille's cute even in chibi form.

man I miss this game
or some version of it, started to get stale towards the end

I accept your concessions. Good job on failing to put forth any argument for why you should not be able to control your characters in a JRPG.

you get what you deserve for constantly shitting on turn based combat

Vanille sex

ff13 desperately needs an overhaul remake. the combat system was interesting in theory but it was horribly utilized

Wouldn't hurt to bring it closer to FF12's style I think. Give control of the full party or at least give the option to program your own moveset of your secondary characters depending on situations. Or maybe even a crystarium reset option for different setups or something. Mostly really needs more freedom.

The hate people give Vanille exposes how much of a normalfag franchise FF is. She’s just a cutsey moe girl, but the people that don’t play any other JRPGs besides FF were left slack jawed and confused. XIII in general is far more of a typical JRPG than most entries. It’s distinctly more Japanese.

13 definitely needed 12s gambit system

Why is it still not on switch?

I think you underestimate how bad her fake accent is.

no, there is not
auto battle will use whatever, the only way to influence it is to librascope/already have discovered its immunities and resists and weaknesses, in which case auto battle will avoid the things it is strong against and prioritise the things it is weak against

he uses Auto Battle

plebeian as fuck.
Manual combos + cancel function = more fun, and MORE EFFECTIVE.

she is cute though

Only if you suck. Most fights end under 30 seconds.

She flirted with Hope so it seems she's a bi.

fake accent

va is Australian

???

have to set triple medics because AI is too dumb to use cura properly

Anon, this game fucking plays itself, what are you rambling about?

You did beat mission 55 (Neochu) before finishing the main story to get the growth egg right Anon Babble?

she's from a made up location you fucking retard

For Synergist, Saboteur, and Medic you're better off inputting commands manually. Auto-Battle is for Commando/Ravager where it's about building meter and raw DPS and how you get there doesn't really matter.

It's honestly absurd how little Square-Enix learns from game to game with FF. They reinvent the wheel every time and forget any innovations from prior entries.

The game plays itself inefficiently.
Like the OP says Saboteurs will spend their full ATB gauge casting the same debuff rather than cycling through all of them.
If it actually played itself properly it'd do De-Protect, De-Shell and Poison in one bar and adjust from there based on the status effects the enemy already has.

upgrading weapons was made needlessly complicated

The combat in 13 takes for fucking ever

game literally rates your battles on speed and gives better drops for it

it’s literally her natural australian accent

who was the most useless party member?

ravager auto is pretty shit with the way it alternates between physical and magical commands for some reason

that's difficult to say as they're all good at some point but I would say Sazh is too weak in endgame

Good thing the battle theme is good then.

How can you think upgrading was complicated in xiii? You just use organic material to build the exp multiplier then cash out with high value synthetic material. Haven't played in a decade and I still remember that shit.

Nah, once it clicks for you, it's mind numbingly boring.

People ae hyper nostalgic for 13 now

despite all its supposed problems, FF13 was when FF still had it's core identity.

you did try to pan the camera under her skirt admit it anon

I wish we had FFXIII with FFXIII-2 gameplay

there were barely any difference between characters past a certain point, just different special skills and eidolons
but yeah, probably sazh (with hope being second worst) his special skill did puny damage, lightning had the better multi hit skill, vanille had insta death, and both snow and fang had single hit skills that could hit for millions of damage

I always autistically forget I can do this on my first playthroughs unless a character wears a clear miniskirt.

If you just wanted to finish the game, Snow. If you wanted to do more, Sazh.

would it be possible to beat the game with characters locked in a single role?

FINALLY a good thread!

The whole point of the game is that roles are essentially your battle commands, so no it wouldn't.
Or at least not without dying of tedium.

So I left to shower and have dinner and my PS3 shut off because of power saving and I haven't saved since the start of the forest section with Sazh and Vanille fuck my shitty gay life I hate this game.

I know that but people have made through stupid challenges in other games in the series too, like no sphere grid in 10, all white mages in 1 and the famous lvl 100 in the first reactor in 7
I just wonder if it is possible at all, maybe on easy at least

i have an idea! play a better game
