I hate Hope. He's such a pansy.
And yeah, wtf is this ish with Fang?
Good lord. I feel like I'm gonna have a Sheldon Cooper moment when things are all out of whack for him.

Fang with a bottle of liquor? Right on man. Right on.
I just want a story with a bunch of different parallel universe Sazhs all talking about how they're too old for this trout.
Eyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Maybe they are still trying to redeem him in the eyes of fans. He hardly seemed popular. I wouldn't be surprised if Square made child Hope and teen Hope meet each other and become the main characters for the second half of the game at this point.
Yeah but for me Hope redeemed himself in XIII-2. He looked hot in that academy uniform, and actually made sense and helped the team. I loved Hope in XIII-2.
Why did they have to change the formula?!
ff13 is about changing the formula
every game changes the overarching story system (linear, time travel, countdown)
it's a very high level metaphor of the path final fantasy games have taken in general, with each trying to be different from the last in some way
That's fine in terms of the 'style' of gameplay. When it comes to characters, Hope in FFXIII-2 was great. I'm not sure how they'll play him in LR but if they wanted people to like him more, reverting him to his child form is definitely a bold move.
I might be completely wrong, but I do feel uneasy about that change.
Zeromus was the physical form of Zemus' hate, and Cloud of Darkness is the physical form of the Void that appears when there is an imbalance between the Light Crystals and the Dark Crystals to return both worlds to Void. Both are explained in the game, so I don't really understand how they don't make sense.
Necron is kind of unique as a main series Final Boss in that he isn't explicitly explained within the game itself, but there are enough plausible theories to explain his presence. Given how the Iifa Tree went nuts and died after Necron was defeated, I always thought he was the spiritual form of the Iifa Tree that sorted the souls of Terra with the souls of Gaia, just like Soulcage was the physical form of the Iifa Tree. Garland did hint that there was more to the Iifa Tree than just the Soulcage, after all.
And before we bring him up: NeoExDeath was most likely another physical incarnation of the Void that appeared when Exdeath lost control over the void. It would explain its appearance (made of the countless beings the Void has absorbed throughout its existence) and its goal of reducing everything (including itself) to nothing.
And I think that's all as far as potentially confusing Final Bosses go, at least for the main series.
If you really want a final boss that just came right the buck out of nowhere, play FFTA2. That'll have you scratching your head, I guarantee it.
To troll the FF13 Hope haters fans meanwhile those who didn't mind young Hope are sitting here with popcorn.
Pretty much. The gameplay does look fun and some of the concepts interesting, but I have very little faith in the FFXIII series writers to tell a well-crafted and coherent story.
