Final Fantasy XIII-2 Wish List

[Del Murder]

If there was one thing you wanted to know about FFXIII-2, what would it be?

For me I really want to know if Lightning is a playable character. It sure sounded like she was the star of this game when it was first announced but lately it seems like the Serah-Noel story.

Sazh better be back. And he better be important.

I would like to know how important the characters of FFXIII will be. I can see things going like, "oh well we don't see much of each other because everyone's on the run because we kind of broke everything whoops!" or I can see them sneaking up on us like "hey guys bet you didn't know I was in here!"

Wasn't there footage of her riding Odin and fighting a boss? Linking attacks and spells and whatever....so I guess (even in a smaller scenario) she'd still be "playable". I have no Idea if she's a playable main character, or if she's just playable during the epilogue or short hurrah sequence.

All I really want to know about is the characters. If this takes the route of X-2 where all the important characters become NPCs with uninteresting stories I will be very sad.

I second that.

But I'd like for the actual playable characters to be interesting. XIII's cast was one of the weakest imo. Sazh was great and the only reason I and many others like him is because his character, for the most part, was meant to be for comic relief, and he did that well. I want Serah and the other characters to feel 'alive'. Characters like Steiner, Barret and Sabin had more personality with just text than XIII's cast.

I'd obviously like to see some sort of mini-game, sub-quests and general exploration. I would love to have an airship, but that's not happening so I guess I'll wait until Versus XIII comes out in a few more years

-Random Encounters.

[Rostum]

Town hubs filled with purpose.

Will the frocobo return?

Minigames - the essence of final fantasy - I agree wholeheartedly!!
Airships - lso cool!!

-Random Encounters.

I totally agree!! Bring back random battles with gil rewards and make it so we do not have farm for endless hours to get powerful!!

[Elpizo]

I'd like to know if the monster design will be better and more interesting this time around, but judging from the info and screens we have, it just seems recycled from XIII, which had very bad monster design, IMHO.

The game already have new random encounters system.

Good point, considering this game has beastmaster elements i wish it we will have monsters from FF lore (e.g. Iron Gaint ).

I'm curious about the localization process for this one. We've never seen any Japanese screen shots. Was it in English from the start?

Interesting. So are they translating screen shots just for the fans' sake, or are they localizing the game as they go? Hmmm
