It was teased that Lightning from Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII would have a Miqo'te outfit from Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn. Square Enix released promotional images on their site to show the outfit off!

The Miqo'te outfit will give Lightning the victory pose from Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn as well as the sound effects that come with it. The Cloud Strife outfit from Final Fantasy VII will also do the same. During E3 there was a glimpse of a Yuna outfit from Final Fantasy X. This outfit will most likely have the similar victory pose and sound effects attached to it.

What do you think of all this cross promotion and fan service to older fans? Are you excited for all the outfits?

The cross over is also going the other way: http://home.eyesonff.com/general-fin...r-bonanza.html

Oh dear lord.

I like miqote, i also think Lightning is pretty, but this just looks dumb.

The miqote RSE was ridiculous anyway. Who would wear a skirt that short? (it's even shorter in FF14 than what Lightning wears.)

No comment.

*Ahem*

They're trying so hard I feel bad :\

THat's not a skirt. It's more like some sort of really revealing hotpants. You get panty shots in FF14 even if you stand still and look at your miqote character from the same height as the character herself is.

This girl would:



I am also sure there are many other females that would also not mind wearing such a belt skirt, as an appreciator of such displays I find nothing wrong with Light's outfit /smug

That seems out of character.

[Dr. rydrum2112]

someone once called ashe princess hoochie skirt- what a brilliant line.

[Loony BoB]

That seems out of character.

This is my biggest issue with it.

To be honest, Yuna's robes also seem out of character for Lightning, but there seems to be less resistance towards that for some reason...

[Loony BoB]

I'm not keen on them, either. It's more the pose that is out of character for Light, though. She's not a flirty/playful/catty kind of girl at all.

I personally think if she lose the ears and tail; Lightning would still be hot. Besides that part of garment, I think the overall outfit is sexy.
