    Default Not to sound like a rabid fanboy but....

    I seriously think Versus is going to be awesome, I love how Nomura is going for a darker tone thats rarely present in most FF's.

    I feel the title looks promising but I cannot say I feel the title is truly darker. A little blood doesn't denote dark and mature in my eyes. Needs more plot info, I will have to wait for the title to be released to make a fair assessment.

    I still wish to see gameplay footage.

    Has there been any gameplay footage released of the game so far?
    I believe in the power of humanity.

    Not that I'm aware of. I believe the recent Jump Fiesta trailers are the most recent offerings from SE.

    I think Versus looks amazing!! I can't wait! ^_^

    The only thing about gameplay that we have seen (or that I have found) with the gameplay on Versus 13 is here...

    New FFXIII & Versus XIII images from Cloud, including gameplay pics - Joystiq [PlayStation]

    The pictures aren't very big but you can still what some of them are.

    My sig and avy are made by me.

    Agreed. I mean Versus looks amazing but I haven't seen any footage yet that looks as dark as the World of Ruin in FFVI. Not to mention all the human experiments, gas chambers, Jenova cells, and dark character back stories in FFVII. These games were pretty much the definition of "a darker tone".

    FFX wasn't dark. It was like a childrens cartoon.

    Ditto. I also notice that IX didn't make the list, which despite its art style had a very dark story.

    I don't think FFXIII Versus is going to have that serious of a story, but two games that have serious stories are Lost Odyssey and Drakengard, but Drakengard has a... twisted story, at least in Japan, in the States, the twistedness is dumbed down significantly.

    I'm getting a bit tired of all the over the top melodrama in a lot of JRPG's, so I'm not terribly excited for Versus XIII, since it's a nomura directed game and he tends to turn it to 11.

    What? It had heavy emphasis on death, religion, forgiveness, and existence.

    Since when is relegion "dark"? Serious, perhaps, but not dark.
    My friend Delzethin is currently running a GoFundMe account to pay for some extended medical troubles he's had. He's had chronic issues and lifetime troubles that have really crippled his career opportunities, and he's trying to get enough funding to get back to a stable medical situation. If you like his content, please support his GoFundMe, or even just contribute to his Patreon.

    He can really use a hand with this, and any support you can offer is appreciated.
