On towns and NPCs (Spoilers Within)

I thought it was sensible and effective to have you barely spend any time in settlements and to not have much peace when you are there. You are far beyond mere fugitives; there is literally nothing else in the world which scares the general population more than what you are.

Haha. I hope he has more of a personality. And I hope he doesn't have a Naruto chasing around after him refusing to admit that the guy's an asshole whose only likeable moment was when he nearly died on their first mission at the hands of a transvestite.

Brooding characters can work (Cloud!) but it's rare. We'll see. It's difficult to know what he's like from basically one picture and a brief trailer appearance.

(I am currently retranslating VII and loving it, creating a new character for VII and loving it, making a difficulty mod for VII and loving it and finally beating Dark Aeons/penance fairly in X and loving it)

See, again, that's personal preference. I'm playing through FFVII again and I'm really not seeing why I liked it in the first place. The translation and stupid subplots just kill the game for me. I MUCH preferred FFXIII and FFXII over VII, and X-2 is better as well, assuming you skip every cutscene.

so you can check with him to see how far along he is.

Translation errors aren't the game's fault anyway.

I enjoyed FFVII although it has been years since I played it.

FFXII bores me and has deficiencies of its own so it's not a good comparison to make imo.

I wonder when we'll hear something about the downloadable content...all that stuff they didn't have room for in the game that presumably players will be able to download.
Maybe that might improve the game for some people.
:roll2

I read somewhere that there will be no downloadable content for XIII.

Whatchu talkin' 'bout Willis?

Also I'm having a problem figuring this reasoning out. It's not like not making a town meant they didn't make other places. The only stuff in towns which is different is writing NPCs and VAing them, but that's not graphical. Plenty of graphical elements already exist for towns and I'm really not convinced that what they didn't already have amounted to so much work that it was unfeasible.
