I watch the walkthrough back in 2012 or 2013 I forgot, that changing Paradigm Animation has been removed, I think this is what I like from Final Fantasy XIII-2 also the story too, just everything about Final Fantasy XIII sequel , so it would take less time to complete the battle (depends on your level and magic.)
I haven't played it yet. I got too distracted with other game NOOOOO....
But I think I already love Final Fantasy XIII sequel before I even played it, and before it came too PC, and I still love it
I need to finish Final Fantasy XIII, before jumping to Final Fantasy XIII-2, I don't really like to rush to complete a game, I want to know the feel of the game too

But this is my opinion
