Nobody said she is more annoying than, say, Lymle. But she is one of the most annoying of the bunch in FFXIII.

If I'm not mistaken ALL of the weapons have the potential to turn into the Ultimate Weapon for that character. Depending on which weapon you upgrade the Ultimate Weapon will have different stats.
IE. Gladius turns into Helter Skelter which can then turn into Ultima Weapon. But instead of having atk 535 mag 535 it'll have atk 735 mag 210 something to that effect.

I have done that twice,
one with Sazh/Vanille in the woods, everytime you change the weater the enemies respawn and the other was in the Palamecia in chapter 9, there are corridors with lots of PSICOM, if you can get 5 stars in the fights, you'll get A LOT of credit chip/incentive chip.
In one of the corridors, if you explore a little bit, youll find an exit and the game loads the new area where are some PSICOM soldiers and a save point, you cans kill the, save, return to the ship and kill again the soldiers inside, the go out, kill the soldiers again, save, go inside the ship again... and you get the idea..............

Those were good videos, most of which I was already taking advantage of. The Paradigm Shift Cancel seems pretty simple now. Basically you get a full ATB on Paradigm shift after you let it charge up fully once.
Example:
- Fight starts, let the ATB charge up fully
- After all commands are executed, paradigm shift
- ATB is full!
- Execute all commands
- Let ATB fully charge, and repeat

No way. That's my favorite game in the series, but it has Quinna (who is terrible) and Freya and Amarant are nothing special either. Vivi and Steiner are two of the best characters and ever, and Zidane is great, but the cast is hardly perfect.
ULTROS!
People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.
6 hrs in the game.
Honestly, the game is fun for short play times (1-2 hours max) but if you play for extended hours (6 hours), it gets draggy.
Is it just me or are the shops "irrelevant"? Currently in chapter 4. When do they start becoming relevant?
Liking the game so far even if there aren't any towns. Story is fine for me, nothing epic but mostly personal reflection and stuff.

:lol I agree, it definitely needs to be stronger.RedNumberFive said:
what I find even stranger is people somehow finding the plot incomprehensible without reading the datalog. It's pretty damn straight forward...borghe said:
I mean, are we playing the same game? So far, the datalog is just a a lot stating the obvious, and aside from location descriptions, which have no place in the narrative anyways, Im a bit hard pressed to find something that I wouldnt have known without it...

Supposedly they toned down the rumble in the western release?
Edit:
Vibration
Many people have claimed that there is no vibration in the English PS3 version of FFXIII. This is untrue. However, how powerful the vibration is has been changed dramatically. You seldom feel it during gameplay and when you do, it's so weak it's barely worth having. This is the first game I've played where the vibration is at such a low frequency I can actually hear the motor inside my controller struggling.
Save Points
An extremely minor problem but I assume some of you have come across it. In the Japanese release, when you exit the save menu, you could hold down the analogue stick while the screen quickly switched back to gameplay and you'd immediately start running. Now if you do that you'll stay motionless. You have to release the analogue stick and then try again.
Shroud Menu
Known as the Smoke Menu in the Japanese release, you could run around with it open and use it at the most opportune moment. Now when you press L1 to open the shroud menu you can't move. This means you have to make sure you're the perfect distance from your target to use an aerosol or the time limit will run out and you'll end up wasting it. This gets especially annoying later in the game. Several times I've had to get so close to an enemy that I've alerted them and not had enough time to fumble through the menu.

The very beginning was a little confusing without the data log. It wasn't clear to me that lightning and Sazh didn't know each other. Why people were fighting wasn't clear. Was this new or an ongiong war etc. The outline of the world wasn't well explained in the beginning.
Now granted most of this stuff gets cleared up later even without the datalog, but there were a lot of unanswered questions without it in the first chapter.

Because he's a dumb kid. I think everyone can tell his logic is beyond idiotic, but you just have to deal with it until he hopefully finally gets around to bothering Snow about it and then shutting up.F#A#Oo said:
