Super Cool GTA V for Terrible FF13: Lightning Returns - City of Toronto Video Games for Sale - Kijiji City of Toronto Canada. (http://toronto.kijiji.ca/c-buy-and-sell-video-games-consoles-Sony-Playstation-3-Super-Cool-GTA-V-for-Terrible-FF13-Lightning-Returns-W0QQAdIdZ566615280)


You know how it is. You got FF13: Lightning Returns cause your Ma/Cousin/Co-worker knows you liked FF7. But you can't stand this stuff. It's OK! Not everyone likes Lightning! Not everyone likes corridors.

But everyone likes shooting things and stealing cars.

So I'm proposing to take that game you're not gonna play, and give you a game you totally are! Grand Theft Friggin Auto Five! It's full of male lead characters, ultraviolence, hairstyling, clothes buying/dress-up sequences, and side-missions! You can even make your own avatar and listen to 12 year olds yell at their parents while playing online! Why would anyone play a game about some lady with a sword? I bet there isn't even real stores in it! Guess what. There's real stores in GTAV. With real guns and real pants and real haircuts. I've played it, so I know.

Come on. You don't have time for leveling up or whatever the crap system Square-Enix use now. Active Time Battle? Radioactive Schmime Frattle, more like! You don't care about this stuff. It'll even be a little embarrassing if you pop it in and get the 'Watched the Intro!' trophy that most games have nowadays. You're just totally not into this.

What you're totally into, is getting this used copy of GTAV instead. It comes with a CASE and the DISC. I think there's a booklet but I haven't really explored it enough to notice either way.

I can, for your convenience, meet you somewhere in the downtown core of Toronto! Then we trade the CASES and DISCS for GTAV and FFXIII: LR and you totally get the game you've wanted instead of this paperweight you'll never use. I won't tell your Ma/Cousin/Co-worker.

You're gonna enjoy yourself bro/dude/miss/ma'am.

But if you don't have FF13:LRLR13FF13LFR or whatever the acronym is, I'll take $30 for GTAV as well. Oh, it's for PS3

[Psychotic]

I already own GTA V, and I don't have a PS3, but I'm thinking of buying a PS3 copy of Lightning Returns and flying over to Toronto just to trade with this guy.

[krissy]

I was the guy
I bought it used tho just booting it up now

[Psychotic]

You'll soon learn it has real stores. You can't buy guns there though.

[Mirage]

I have decided to specifically look for it second hand because I don't want to give SE money for it after the ending they served me in 13-2.

[Noctis Caelum]

That's Canada for ya.

[krissy]

Noels hard

[Psychotic]

Noels hardmoms are tough

[krissy]

Its a bit ridiculous to expect me to know when to defend or not due to all the crap going on in the screen

It also took me two days to realize that staggering s not that little status ailment. So now I can get him halfway down.

So far not super sure this was worth the 35$

[krissy]

I'm gonna beat noel on normal with just 4 sidequests and no upgrades whatsoever

I have 20 mins before day 3 so I have no choice really

I regret doing normal now I guess but oh well at least its not dark souls!!

BTW this is now my fflr blog

[Psychotic]

what is wrong with you son Noel aint that difficult, just lightning the lad

like the spell

not the character

though i guess she's the one killing him anyway

hmm

let me ponder that and get back to you

[krissy]

i did like 4 sidequests before figthing him! and had only thunder lvl 1
bought that one suit with thundara lvl 2 and it was super easy after
and did some more sidequests the next day after giving up
and managed him all right
sparkstrike really take s alot out of him while staggered

[krissy]

Beat snow
Second try
Friggin doing all that from 3 am was balls tho

[Psychotic]

Beat snow
Second try
Friggin doing all that from 3 am was balls thoSeriously. I just spammed chronostasis in that entire palace.

[krissy]

I loooove fluffy
Too bad can't take him to other areas
Yes I named the angel of Valhalla fluffy what of it

[krissy]

Day 10
All main quest lines complete AFAIK, time to get my sides in
I'm totally into this game
Was worth the money. It won me over. 13-2 did the same thing.

[krissy]

day 12
failed 3 side quests
I BROUGHT BACK THE WRONG CArnBUNCLE DOLL
THIS WAS MY FIRST SIDE QUEST
it immediately set the tone for the game for me :( :( :(

if it's failable i pretty much failed it
failed the phone one
failed don't read the journal lol
im trying to fight aeronite but i dont think its doable on ng, not for me anyway
can't even stagger once
dunnoo what else to do
started tear girl quest too late to finish i think

gonna have to redo everything ----______________----

[krissy]

Cool opened ultimate lair somehow
Screw cactuar tho:-(

[krissy]

Yeah so ereshkigal sucks
I was looking forward to finishing the game finally but turns out I might be a while just trying to figure it out
Glad he don't aggro and you can backstb but what's the point when I can't stagger!

I'm starting to think I don't really understand the staggers a system in this game
Often my gauge just disappears. I miss 13-2 and 13 where I at least knew why

[Formalhaut]

To maintain a stagger, each enemy have their own conditions for a stagger. Also, you should try to use some abilities that preserve a stagger as well. I personally found the ATB gauge to be annoying. So many times I'm waiting for my ATB gauges to refill. They go at a snail's pace sometimes.

[Psychotic]

What happens if you bring back the wrong Carbuncle doll?

[Formalhaut]

Well there's a red one and a green one. She wanted the green one, so I imagine she just cries and storms off if you gave her the red one. I'm not sure how you could fail that one though. She did specify that it was a green doll she lost.

Although, I'd deliberately fail 'The Avid Reader' to get 'Save the Sinless'. You get superior rewards in 'Save the Sinless'. Besides, you can only complete one or the other in a single play-through.

[krissy]

I thought there was only one and she was gonna give you a second thing to do/color it or something
anyway if you give the wrong one to her

she goes crazy and maniacal and lightning blames herself for crushing a little girls mind and soul

i mean that was the first thing that happened to me in the game, so immediately the mood for the game was a lot darker than 13 and 13-2

im now on the final boss but couldn't stagger the last stage with my set up so will try again on monday. super easy otherwise, but i guess im pretty pumped up (especially after the four doors)

[krissy]

Done
Does this mean I need to fight all the last ones again for the quest????? :-(

[krissy]

I played another two days of ngplus
I dontreallywant to leave :-(

[krissy]

Aeronite down
