The fragment also made me lol. At least it was self-aware (sentai/power rangers stuff too)! Also, the canon ending is the
flan
ending for me! :D

Anyone have a spreadsheet or something for the bestiary entries? I've decided to do the casino stuff last because I wasn't successful last time. :/

I used this: http://ff12.jp/ff13_2_enemy.html
It's written in the exact same order as it is in the bestiary and the names for each monster are mostly the same with a few exceptions like Hungry Joe or Attila. But I guess by now there's probably an English enemy list somewhere.

Thank you. The list is pretty organized, so it's good enough. Gosh, the Japanese wiki site is really awesome. Really easy to go through.

I really loved the
Vile Peaks questline
. I wish this game had more stuff like that.

Welp, 93 fragments. About to go through the gate in
Academia 4XXAF
.

I liked that questline as well. It was nice that one place had a singular quest throughout different timelines.

Be prepared to hate what is on the other side of that gate.

Are Green Chocobos supposed to be hard to capture? I ended up with one's crystal on my first battle with them.

I decided I wanted to level my chichu some before going into the gate, but now I'm having a hard time finding power orbs. Where's the best place to find moblins?

Used a wild artifact at a place other than Augusta Tower in 200 AF and can't find another..ugh.

Err, rather other than Yaschas Massif 01X so I can't get further in AT.

Looks like all the the usual GAF discussion and naysayers overblowing the bomba this game would do. Sold about 2 million so far worldwide. Not bad for a game only out a week in English and a short dev time

When I had the chance, I made Crazy Chocobo the default chocobo theme. Am I crazy?

Thanks guys. I guess they're considered rare, so I'll just wait until I get the battlemania fragment skill or whatever. Time to move on with the story.

So 16 hours in now, in chapter 5 now and still loving it. The soundtrack is still pretty awesome, especially one particular battle theme fighting random enemies this chapter. Only problem is story ties seem to be wrapping up? Which would be incredibly disappointing if the game is really that short, since I'm liking it so much. I'm only like 30/160 fragments though, so plenty of sidestuff to go I guess.

Also,

Serah = Cute
Noel = A bit bland at first but he grew on me and now I think he's pretty cool.
Mog = Die in a fire.

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuckkkkkkkkkkkkkkk................

Just died on the final boss. Got it down to pretty much a slither of health, but a lack of Wound Potions and Phoenix Downs was my downfall in the end =(

I was on the verge of buying a few more at the last shop before the boss as well!

Will power up a bit more before I attempt it again. I'm thinking
Academia
300AF is a good place to rack up the points since the fights were extremely frequent, from what I can remember and it was like 300-500cp a battle.

Anyone else have any training area recommendations?

The final boss shouldn't have been too difficult. What levels are Noel and Serah for you? And more importantly, are you running a SAB?

I really wish there wasn't an Easy Mode in this game. Or at least have made all the achievements necessary on Normal mode, like the Rasputil one. Would have made plenty of people rip their hair out on the Caius fights, lol.

Normal mode sure feels extremely easy to me. Can't imagine what Easy Mode is like.

My green chocobo was getting destroyed there. So I ran a com com com / rav rav com combo. It was either kill or be killed in 2-3 minutes. Ended up 5*ing every boss in episode 6. The final battle was close, only Noel was left alive and meteor javelin left the boss with 2,000 hp, it was gearing up to do something named dying sun(not exactly sure if that's correct) so I queued one attack and then mashed triangle.

btw, I hope I didnt come across as defending Easy mode... quite the opposite. Though I am abusing Easy mode just to clean up cuz I'm lazy.

Well, just finished the main story... Spoiler free comments follow.

Can't say I have a huge problem with the ending. The actual end battles are pretty great making the finish probably the most satisfying gameplay passage in the game.

As to the cinematic stuff that follows; Its a mixed bag in my opinion. I like the sheer chutzpah of going for what they did, but it still came across as a little half-baked. Basically I wasn't offended or disappointed, but it could have been better.

On the whole though, I liked XIII-2 a lot more than its predecessor.

No. Those are just boss fights, not really worth $3. Though I did buy Noels costumes. :p How are my priorities now? Its just I really don't like his default outfit.

And Omega isn't on the store yet.

But you haven't truly 100% the game unless you got them in your party. D:
