[gryvan]

So Lightning will invade our PCs now D:

Toriyama urging everyone to remember Lightning forever!

Although its pretty cheap and I'd probably buy it when its released day 1...however I might wait for the Steam Winter Sale to see if it can go down even further :O

 

[chaostrophy]

Thats cool, but more importantly

Where is my FF12 International Edition HD for the PC

Yes! Really hope that's on SE's radar, with all the re-releases of older FF games lately.

 

[Raitningz]

Thanks, I'm lazy and skipped 8 pages of this thread...

My Steam says "Pre-order FINAL FANTASY XIII (NE)", what is NE supposed to mean?

Nordic Edition? Idk, that was a guess

 

[Valnen]

No reason for it not to be, the game is clearly not demanding, unless they lock it forcefully in which case rip

Nah. People buy locked framerate games. This game doesn't need 60 FPS to function well.

 

[Grief.exe]

This game is going to look GORGEOUS maxed out at 1080p

You guys are thinking too small, I'm thinking 1440p

 

[Nethaniah]

I really want to get this, damn that price but what if it's a garbage port with all kinds of things locked like resolution and fps....

Edit: Price is making me think this port is gonna be absolute trash.

 

[Tizoc]

You guys are thinking too small, I'm thinking 1440p

It looked good on PS3, so PC ver. would look phenomenal too.

Time I bought an External HDD just for big-ass Steam games like FF13.

 

[Zeyphersan]

You guys are thinking too small, I'm thinking 1440p

I'm still a casual, cut me some slack

 

[AdawgDaFAB]

Will buy to show support, but the steam page is confusing; It warns us that there's only English audio, but when you look at the languages, there's full Japanese text and audio?

I hope this has dual audio for all 3 games. It will give me a reason to replay 1 before trying 2 and LR. A while back, I was looking at importing the HK versions of 1 and 2, but those are expensive due to rarity.

 

[Meowster]

I will be double dipping!

 

[Gipsy Danger]

Huge news and I am extremely pleased that this turned out to be real. PC slowly making it's way to complete dominance of multiplats.

 

[Lyonaz]

Fuck yeah, count me as one of the few who enjoyed FFXIII and FFXIII-2. Still have LR unopened for the PS3.

Guess I'll buy them all on Steam now.

 

[Grief.exe]

Nah. People buy locked framerate games. This game doesn't need 60 FPS to function well.

Go browse Steam forums, if the game is locked at 30 people will rage.

I've never understood this argument. I am still controlling the character and can feel and perceive the reduced frame rate.

 

[L.O.R.D]

is this game region locked ?
Brazilian store look cheaper

 

[-tetsuo-]

60fps corridor RPG

 

[TheSeks]

At least the price is really cheap?

Probably will drop more during Steam sales, but yeah... ~$15 for a 4+ year old title on a new platform isn't a bad move by Square. Unlike say... charging for an iPhone remake of a port of a port of a port of a port of an SNES JRPG/4 for that much.

 

[Muskieratboi]

Bought.

Bought again for my friend who played the entire trilogy on PS3 and liked it begudhingly.

Bought AGAIN for Spoony if I can figure out what his Steam login is. It must be inflicted upon him once again, but this time in HIGH DEFINITION! MWAHAHAHAH

 

[Unknown Soldier]

Why?

Because fuck you, that's why.

I'm surprised they haven't made an iOS port of FFXIII yet though.

 

[Zafir]

You guys are thinking too small, I'm thinking 1440p

Man it's going to look so good on my 1440p monitor.

Would suck so much if they decided to lock it at 720p or something.

 

[Valnen]

Go browse Steam forums, if the game is locked at 30 people will rage.

And for every rager there are like 10 people that buy it anyways during a Steam sale.

I've never understood this argument. I am still controlling the character and can feel and perceive the reduced frame rate.

You're not controlling characters in this though, you're controlling menus.

 

[Caayn]

Ppffftt 16:9 peasant

 

[TheTrain]

The good: Bought!
The bad: I don't see it in my steam library!

 

[StrikeFirst117]

What I want to know is whether the ports are internally done by square enix, or if they have gotten Nixes involved again.
I'll be buying all 3 when I have an idea on the port.

 

[Tevos]

Bought!

Can't wait to play this with edited ini's and smooth framerates.

 

[Danlord]

The good: Bought!
The bad: I don't see it in my steam library!

Same here, although I don't buy Steam games much so I don't know if this is the norm for purchasing games before release.

 

[Durante]

You guys are thinking too small, I'm thinking 1440p

Lol 1440p. That's sufficient as an output resolution. Maybe.

 

[Seanspeed]

You guys are thinking too small, I'm thinking 1440p

At least.

Ppffftt 16:9 peasant

Good luck on that 16:10 support.

 

[Nethaniah]

This, however cheap it is, i cannot buy this unless we have "some" idea on what the port is like.

Edit: I think it's weird there isn't any message proclaiming higher res textures / made for HD! and such like there always is with these kinds of late ports, they even did it with FF3 and FF4 IIRC.

 

[Zafir]

Same here, although I don't buy Steam games much so I don't know if this is the norm for purchasing games before release.

It happens sometimes, I wouldn't worry too much about it.

 

[Frumix]

It does have dual audio, but it's not available worldwide. The question is, if it's in the package, in which case getting it out should be trivial, or if it's genuinely regional in which case it's gonna take some doings that we're not supposed to do.

is this game region locked ?
Brazilian store look cheaper

It does seem to have multiple regional versions

 

[fargofallout]

I highly recommend this game. It gets good after 30 hours.

Hahahaha, that's my biggest problem with it. Too long until it picks up. Well, maybe second biggest problem.

Has Square still been doing their crappy extra DRM in their Steam ports, or did they give that up?

 

[Danlord]

It happens sometimes, I wouldn't worry too much about it.

That's good to know, thanks.

 

[Easy_D]

In the end, it's on PC. I think if you want Japanese audio you'll be able to get it.

Watch them pack in the subtitles with the audio files so you can't mix and match

 

[Deleted member 17706]

Wow... I only played the original on PS3 and was largely disappointed with it, but this is intriguing.

Was this announced at TGS? I'm hoping there will be a Japanese release. I really am not interested in playing the game in English.

 

[TheTux]

Nordic Edition? Idk, that was a guess

Thought so too, asked because I'm not really in a "Nordic" region.

is this game region locked ?

Russian version of a game is always the cheapest one. In this case the brazilian is a bit more.

Probably will drop more during Steam sales, but yeah... ~$15 for a 4+ year old title on a new platform isn't a bad move by Square. Unlike say... charging for an iPhone remake of a port of a port of a port of a port of an SNES JRPG/4 for that much.

Can't wait for the Xmas sales lol.

 

[Durante]

That would just make it harder to mix and match. My skill at binary reverse engineering is serviceable.

 

[Delixe]

Will buy and add to the pile of shame just on the off chance we might get Kingdom Hearts 3 later. Wouldn't mind Final Fantasy X HD while Square are spreading the PC love.

 

[L.O.R.D]

No steam cards ?
no buy
jk/ not buying it anyway , i;ll wait for LR , the only game i didn't play

 

[farisr]

I'll get it when the entire trilogy is available for around $10-15 on a sale.

I played the first, and unlike many others, thought it was decent. But XIII-2, and LR just weren't appealing to me all that much, and the framerate hiccups that I was seeing in some of the videos were bothering me a lot, which is extremely rare for me, as it usually doesn't matter to me. My PC should be able to fix that AFAIK, don't really game on PC, only tried it for titanfall, and the crew beta. Have this rig mainly for multimedia editing and what not.

PC gamers, it's decent right?

i7-4770k @ 3.5GHz
GeForce GTX 770 (2GB DDR5)
16GB DDR3

 

[Superflat]

I wanna max settings the hell out of this.

Not sure I want to slog through the boring first third of the game though.

I'm assuming there's no Japanese language option in this version either?

 

[7DollarHagane]

That's awesome. Its an okay game. Its a better game in the later half.

 

[Corgi]

curious who's doing the port. Also was the framerate locked on consoles?

Any remote chance of it being capped?

 

[L.O.R.D]

its not available in Russian store

 

[Shin-Ra]

I look forward to the impressions as the graphics steadily get worse from XIII to XIII-2 to LR.

 

[chrominance]

So weird. Never really expected this, but I'm glad it's happening. I probably won't play this, nor XIII-2 (I still have a PS3 game going that I need to get back to), but I'd consider picking up Lightning Returns if the price is good.

 

[TheSeks]

Thats cool, but more importantly

Where is my FF12 International Edition HD for the PC

For real. I'd cry tears of joy and buy 10 copies to give via modbot away if that happened. No joke.

You won't have any issue at all running the game.

Well that's what happens when you use scrapped assets to build sequels =p.

You are good to go with that.

 

[Rawket Lawnchair]

lol, ridiculous

will buy during a Steam sale, but don't know if I will give it another chance... I traded in my PS3 version just 3 weeks ago.
