The newly revealed ensemble Lightning will be sporting for Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII (or what might otherwise be Final Fantasy XIII-3) has quickly become the subject of ridicule amongst Final Fantasy fans, and despair amongst Lightning lovers.
The new trailer accompanying it:
Online there has been a less than appreciative response to Lightning’s new look:
“Why can you see her pantsu?”
“This is awful… They should have kept the look from the first one.”
“What is she wearing…”
“How can she even move dressed like that?”
“I like Lightning but this is awful!”
“Even in fiction and fantasy a certain sense of reality is required…”
“Either make it easy to move or hard to move, just make up your mind.”
“And she looked so cool in her regular get up.”
“Is that part of an aircraft stuck to her arm there?”
“What about those sunglasses!”
“I want to see her trying to ride in an aircraft – it’ll be funny seeing what kind of seating arrangement they come up because of that ridiculous outfit.”
“Nomura’s design sense basically froze 10 years ago and hasn’t changed since, so this is to be expected.”
“Looks more like she crawled out of an Assassin’s Creed game really.”
“Chuunibyou level design right there.”
“They are still set on continuing this series?”
“Why are they stuck on FF13? Did they run out of money to finance any new titles perhaps?”
“It’s bad enough that 13 was such charmless rubbish, hurry up and come out with 15 already!”
“They need to change the numbering for this series now.”
“Why continue 13 again, it’s not as if the series is even that popular. How about 10-3 instead?”
“I’m surprised she made it off that train without getting caught on the straps.”
“Not sexy and not cool, just who benefits from a stupid design like this”?
“Why is the only unprotected area her crotch?”
she’s sporting the classic model LG-GAT-X105 Gale Strike Gundam shield.
Axl Roses clone!!!!!!
Why does she have a gundam shield???
I don’t mind the design. I just prefer her design in the first two games. She’s still attractive.
She already looked like shit in the first place, she was just a rehash of previous FF uniforms from FF12 and 11. Sigh, when will squeenix just go bankrupt.
LIGHTNING GAGA OMFG!!!!!!!
heh I must be one of the few people who likes her new outfit 😛
Ok so as I myself LOVED lightning in FF13. Was one of my fav FF women for sure and she looks weird now.
Anyway FF13 I liked the story and characters and the gameplay was ok. But it was too linear.
FF13-2 had a good story chars were ok but was a little disappointed with only 2 but it went well. Much more to do than in FF13. The only thing I didnt like were the pokemon monsters. Well the time line thing was a bit annoying but better than the last lnear shit.
Now for FF13-3 I really wanna know how the story will end but lightning looks weird and it looks like assassins creed and they will probably make it so you can turn back time and redo stuff like in Zelda Majoras mask.
But the worst is that it seems you can OOONLY play as lightning without a party -.- ?? So ye I want the story but only 1 character to bound with? 🙁 will be weird.
But she seriously just looks like a mash of YRP (yuna,rikku,paine) now. Maybe they should make another FFX while they’re at it.
So this is what happens when Tetsuya hands over costume design to someone else….
UGH, the top looks interesting, but it’s like they got bored around the crotch area.
Also, if they’re just going to make her a female Cloud (even moreso now than ever), why can’t they remake FFVII or let it die?
I dont know why errybody mad. Yall are still gonna buy it anyways. Its not even that bad looking. And an open world to play in would be nice. They should make it similar to XII
Just cover that skin with some leather, remove stupid shield and cape and that skirt thingy is pretty stupid too.
I love how people are so upset with an outfit design, that they think, for that reason alone, SE should shut down the entire company….. Lol guys.
No one is upset everyone making poke fun of SE design and decision because there other game that need more attention then FF13 series
She looks like…. Bayonetta for some reason
Square Enix’s new :
1.) Remake the lovable character
2.) Dress it with ridiculous outfit and setup
3.) Release various costume for DLC
4.)????
5.) Profit.
there is something wrong with the color scheme and ratio
Have they lost their damn mind?
..err
is this FF Devil May Cry now with Active battle scenes?
Look! Westernization at work! Now she looks like complete shit.
People are once again being whining bitches, she looks ok. Besides, those whiners will still buy the game.
No just the company cows
hahahaha now look exactly to AXL roses….really the combo is perfect: Ugly and plane game and ugly and PLANE main char.
At the very very least she doesn’t have useless belts.
Maybe it’s some kind of shield…?
I miss the gunblade…
It looks like her outfit changes form, according to the trailer.
I would say “Where the hell is our TWEWY 2, Squeenix?!” But they would just screw it up like they’ve been doing with everything recently.
Looks good to me
Just a copycat from Rising.
I really like FFXIII. I don’t understand why people hate this game.
I like this final fantasy 😀
A question.
Why FFXIII?
I mean, is the least liked in the series.
the most badly criticized.
Ligtining is the worst character.
Is the worst World (Universe, plot, planet)
Comparing to other FFs, it’s crap.
So, again, Why the fuck FFXIII as so many sequels?
So much effort, and no results?
they are trying to recoup the investment, it sold ok for a game with a lousy word of mouth but im guessing nowhere as much as they expected
and they were talking about dlc and sequels from the start
if they were smart they would try to save everything they could and save face with a similar but different universe (its not like they have to throw everything away and you could make it look a lot different with a few filters), so far they have not show signs of being smart
Square Enix taking one out of Illusion.jp’s book of “Strip Me Please”.
Too bad she’s not on Sexy Beach right now…
Red Saber would like to have a word with her regarding her choice of costume.
stupid square enix,,,, JUST MAKE FINAL FANTASY 7 REMAKE IN HD DAMMIT!!!!!!!
Remake of the most overrated RPG of all history? No.
How is it overrated? Only thing I see are people just hating on FF7 because it the most popular and you guys can’t see to accept it ,just hate on it for that reason
7 was crap. Gtfo.
Yes it crap for some but a majority love it and ff7 not going to please everyone just like any other type of popular mainstream
One day they’ll do it… but it’ll be handled by the chinks that originally handled FFXIV. Guaranteed.
At 1:36, it seems like an alternate outfit.
looks commander shepard-ish
dominatrix lightning.. what the fuck are you complaining about.. complain there’s no whip!
Fuck people. You are never god damn satisfied. Why don’t you just crawl back in to your holes and keep playing your favorite FF game and telling yourself why each one should be like that.
Japanese people don’t like FF13 neither just the company cows that love FF13
am i the only one who loves the ff13 series?
You aren’t, there’s still some hope left for humanity.
Don’t worry, I’m sure Square will be happy to release DLC outfits that make her look less ridiculous…for about $5 apiece.
There’s already outfits confirmed in game.
I am really puzzled by the complaints here. Most of what they said is also applicable to the armor from FF13-2, which no one seemed to have a real issue with (I quite liked it actually). The FFXIII design was fine but a bit dull, which is actually an impressive feat considering the amount of leg exposed, but wearing a skort kind of takes away the excitement of the outfit.
As for the rest of the game…well, FFXIII had issues, FFXIII-2 fixed some of them, it looks like this one is hoping to be an inverse. However, haters will hate no matter what (just look at the comments on this page), so SE would probably be best served by ignoring most of you folks. That’s exactly what they seem to be doing.
when a game is stupid to the core, i could care less what the protagonist looks like. i didn’t play the second one, i won’t play the third. final fantasy is dead to me. dark souls is where my heart lies at the moment. if they fuck up dark souls 2, with the new guys in charge, i’ll have to resort to retro games for a few years. nothing like playing the classics…
-the beast
She always did.
I bet they made her normal outfit extra crappy to encourage people to buy more dlc costumes …
Assasin Creed VI : The Lightning
I welcome thee, evil overlord… ma’am.
I’m at a loss for words right now.. either that be a good sign or a bad one but Kanda-kun is that your voice narrating earlier? O_O
“omg… an FF character in actual armor. How ridiculous!”
lol… everything in FF causes drama now. I’m surprised people still care enough to be offended at this point.
It kind of ruins the point if the armor in question is utterly impractical in battle.
It looks like swordfighting armor – tough shoulders, outer scales on the arms, and a light shield on the left arm.
Final Fantasy games after X are a fucking joke.
XI and XII says hi. So far only 13 was the only thing that failed in pretty much everything in gameplay
X was a joke too, just not funny
how long does it usually take between ff game?
Besides the glasses I think it actually looks alright in motion in the trailer but whatevs.
After how troll the ending(s) were in the last game (All endings were either lead to bad, or really bad endings) I’m not sure i want to buy this new one.
This is kinda cool but nothing special…
It seems they’re now just designing for something to look cool, I don’t see any function of this design other than to look cool… Come on, they were better than this…
She actually looks like she’s from a fantasy game now, and not a Jpop video.
I like it.
Too bad she looks like she’s wearing the wrong outfit for her class.
looks like she’s wearing sukumizu…with a lot of unnecessary attachments
Why would she even wear sunglasses during the night. I mean she’s not even the type of person to do it for ironic reasons.
Square Enix Stop already. Stop milking the dead cow.
Why not just change her into a guy? She practically looks like one now.
No wonder SE removed the comments and rating…
holy crap, is she a gundam now ?
and why do they keep using Lighting in trailers and box art ?, she was everywhere in the ffxiii-2 art and in game she ended up being little more than a side character
Bro, this one is just about lightning. You derp.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MXxH_8Ep_ms
my reaction summed up in 6 words
how the heck does she bend her waist?
This is looking like Resonance of Fate with some Assassin’s Creed mixed in. So it’ll have some platforming, bitchin’ combat but a mediocre, plodding story.
Welp, still got XIII and XIII-2 to appreciate at least.
her name is Lightning. why does she look like a dried up puddle?
She looks a little like a Guilty Gear reject
“Chuunibyou level design right there.”
This.
Outfit looks hideous.
Why didn’t they stick to her outfit from the first game??
that looked fine….and no more gunblade?? Why?
Just bring back Yoshitaka Amano!
Why not just make the entire outfit out of the same material as her corset/blouse/armor thingamajig.
Solid shiny black. Good enough for fans. Good enough for fetishists.
Wow, this looks bad.
if nothing else, it reminds me of Cloud’s outfit from FF7: Advent Children. But i agree that i can’t understand why they’re focusing on FF XIII-3 when Versus XIII, the necessary technological step before KH-3 has yet to be released.
Its no necessary step at all. Need to stop thinking like that.
Not til you stop riding 13-3’s fat dick
It’s called Lightning Returns. And I will continue to thank you very much.
the trailer made her look stupid. You see her getting off the train and everyone is wearing normal clothes then she comes out of the train in a cosplay.
Well this will be interesting.
It may not look like the best Final Fantasy (according to the trailer of cause), but if it achieves high sells, there will still be a chance for Enix and Final Fantasy.
If this flops we can say goodbye to the FF Universe <_<
Too many financial fails in the past. Think about FF 14……
The first time I saw her photo the first thing I thought: Gundam!
its gundam lightning, and she’ll be transforming to a waverider mode soon
Same here, after the initial laugh out loud reaction.
THEY’RE USING THE SAME BATTLE MUSIC FROM XIII FOR THE THIRD TIME
FUCK
it was awful the first time, overblown violin shit, now it’s just cheap and lazy.
It’s remixed. And it was only in XIII-2 as fanservice in select parts and people wanted it back.
so ff is still a thing?
Yes and it will always be a thing. I just hope Square gets their act together. (They can start by releasing FF13 versus and KH3 for starters)
If by ‘thing’ you mean really well-made JRPGs in a classic sense? Then I guess yes, but people don’t play it because it’s popular. They play it because it always, always has a standard of quality that constantly gets raised. Whether people don’t like their choices or not, the quality increases on a constant basis whether they like it or not. They just bitch and moan too much to actually pay attention to that fact.
Fucking hell! What is that? Why bother putting half of a dress?
she’s like Kuja now from ffix
LoL at people defending this awfully designed outfit. I mean that thing looks fucking hideous! Seriously, this most be your bondage fetish kicking in what making some people like this shit costume. 0_____0
Every costume and character design after FFIX is ridiculous, a mixture of Japanese Idols plus Brazilian Carnival Costumes. Theres no reason for people to defend it since FFX.
11, 12, and 14 has fine armor designs, I’d wager you didn’t play 11 or 14 and are talking uninformed shit anyway. I could probably say the same about you playing 12, about the only bad armor in 12 iirc is Fran’s. Hell, 12 even has Gabranth who is fucking badass.
I’m not talking only about the armor and costumes but about the characters as well, the Summons, the monsters, the vilains, but I must agree that the MMOs are fine.
Its armor. Looks nothing like that.
and I almost forgot about the incredibly ridiculous cheesy sunglasses. -__-
About as cheesy as Cloud’s Shades in AC.
“Why is the only unprotected area her crotch?”
i loled
It’s an effective way to lower her male enemies guards:P
“Why is the only unprotected area her crotch?”
That’s so tentacle monsters don’t have to rip her battle gear, to get the “prize”.
SHE NEEDS TO PEE OKAY.
read this and stop being a retard please
[link]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tentacle_erotica[/link]
“Why is the only unprotected area her crotch?”
Target her weak point for massive damage :O
good point, women are always peeing. and she’ll be peeing even more after those tentacle monsters inject her full of little tentacle babies.
ahaha tis funny point, that is constantly ignored in hundreds and hundreds of game character designs for women. They just have no plausibility and have everything exposed, which maybe awesome sometimes. But does get tiresome.
it is called “The Zettai Ryouiki”
If you count that cape as protection for her bare back, that is.
Like Sakaguchi said to Square Enix a few months back.
“Stop making Final Fantasy games”
I couldn’t agree any more.
I’d expect as much from the FF franchise, but why does everyone else have regular modern-looking clothes? It makes it really stick out in a bad way.
That’s the worse part of this. Even in her OWN WORLD, she looks like an utter git. Maybe this is her way of being a hipster.
Who is Lighting seiyū? Kuwashima Houko ?
Maaya Sakamoto.
hmmm no belts or zippers…
Actually, the armor comes in separate segments, and she just glues them to her body.
try the back entrance….
Why this town is so fucking square?
just what i thought while whatching the trailer.
The Towns look so stupidly empty and loveless, that i wont even bother playing this game.
I did stop at FF 10-2 mainly because this were the Games where the World was still filled with something, maybe it was “life” as I fail to be able to put it in words.
But the newer Titles just add some HD-Graphics and now everything is like 10 times as great.
I mean like, are they totally nuts now?
Because its square… enix?
you’re square
the world is Square:D
because its made by square enix
Quick we’ll get a gun and then pass it around to shoot ourselves. you first.
Dude, don’t explain the joke. It’s not funny when you do.
ba dum tss!
harr harr
it looks like some generic prince of persia clone, mixed with a generic jrpg.
Bayonetta XIII, it is…or Lightning May Cry x)
indeed she will, of embarrassment.
Altair you must assassinate, wait your not altair
dunno the white cape and all the running/climbing kinda reminded me off assassins creed
Hey, it’s not like she wasn’t already wearing something ridiculous. Although, I really liked her armor in XIII-2.
Just close your door already, squareenix.
Looks like some sort of hybrid armor from the Mass Effect series
The colors remind me of Shepard’s armor
*yawn* More fail from SquareEnix. Final Fantasy is dead and has been for a while. There are much better JRPGs to be played than the mess that is Final Fantasy. Move on fanboys/girls. Move on.
Getting Assassin’s Creed vibes…….
Either way– Square, stop. No one wants this game. Please continue developing FF13-Versus that you promised us years ago.
Talk for yourself. I want this game.
Also, how about thinking Kingdom Hearts more than Assassin’s Creed? That’s what it looks like and the KH2 Battle Planner is the game design director on this.
Eh I want it.
will buy…at $10.
>2012
>still believing 13-2 was not Versus
would you listen to this faggot
There are people who actually believe FF13-2 was Versus..?! My head hurts.
Versus is about a dude named Noctis who lives in a fantasy Shibuya. Where in FF13-2 was that part?
Etro is not a Fal’Cie in XIII. She’s a Goddess in both games.
I think they might tie it together with FFXIII. Some interdimention connection. Cause if you read, Etro is the fal’cie for 13, and the goddess of Noctis’ world as well…
It’s been a joke the entire time.
The ONLY time she looked cool was in the first game. I’m shocked if anyone sensible would look at this design and think its alright, let alone smart/cool/practical.
I really enjoyed the subtlety and focus of the first two games. Most people hate them for pretty stupid reasons, but even I won’t defend Nomura’s decision here.
Granted I’m not against them trying new things since haters will hate no matter what they do and that’s already been proven. But the benefit is at least you can change her outfit apparently in this game. At least based on what a friend told me.
I refuse to even watch the trailer so I can buy the game without any preconceived notions about it and let my actual play experience be my own. The outfit won’t ruin the game for me at least, but hopefully it’s got purpose. I just want to see the completion of the trilogy, because it is an exceptional game series so far.
HouseLife, you missed the part where she’s wandering around in City 17. Actually, that was the entire trailer. Oh, and she was cosplaying as Batman or something at the end. Does Batman where fancy bat-glasses? Let’s just assume that he does.
And you missed the part where I specifically said I will not do any research or watch anything related to the game so I buy it and start it with a clean perception. Unlike many of the morons peppering the internet, I actually do in fact form my own opinions about something and ignore all the stupid people until I form that opinion. Bitching about something before it’s even begun has wasted a lot of my time in the past where I listened to peoples’ opinions and they turned out utterly incorrect, or just negative and stupid. So I gave up.
They are trying to cater to the people who whined about why the first two aren’t Open world games. And guess what, people STILL aren’t fucking satisfied.
What’s even more lol worthy is that 90% of all Main FF games are completely linear to a point where you can do sidequests GASP just like XIII.
XIII featured just as much player customzation in how you chose to play the game. Most people probably tried to just auto battle it ……
I dunno why people are pinning this on Nomura when he didn’t design the outfits. He drew the characters and some concepts but there’s someone else to blame for these final fantasy faux pas.
whoever is to blame , that new skin and more than anything else …the shield , is totaly crap , the arms doesn’t suit the rest at all , SE should stop making games and more Final Fantasy that are total shits . advent children was awesome , that’s what they are good at , making movies .
Because he designed Lightning? as stated by the team.
Nothing is subtle about Final Fantasy XIII. Everything about it screams, “LOOK AT ME AND THE SPECTACLE THAT I AM”. The level design is not subtle, “Go Straight! LOOK AT HOW GRAND I AM!”; the combat is not subtle, “Stagger enemy, launch, kill it before it comes down.”; the characters are not subtle either as they are all blatant, and obvious, cliches except for Fang. Nothing was subtle about it.
As HouseLife said I myself play FF games pretty much for the STORY and characters only. If the story is good <3
Like FF12 -.- now THATS the worst FF game ever IMO. None of the characters were special or you felt for, atleast I didnt. The story was really really bad and boring.
Combat -.- combat would have been good if they didnt have gambits as like 2/3 of the game I didnt have to push anything anymore. I mean I didnt move a finger at the last boss -.- and that was without gridning my characters OP.
The only good thing about FF12 was the big world.
There was definitely subtlety. I wasn’t speaking about designs or things like that, but the actual acting. I honestly don’t care whether people liked the acting or characters or not, but there are two things that are true: The acting was solid, and there was a lot of unspoken emotion that was conveyed very well. If you didn’t feel it, that doesn’t mean it wasn’t there to feel if you wanted to. Characters or scenario may not be to your liking, but it was there, and I respected it.
People who judged the game on linearity and gameplay often seem to not play for the plot. People complain about the classic style gameplay, however don’t know what they want as an alternative. If they want western-style, get a western game like Assassin’s Creed. As people describe, it sounds like it may be more like that now anyway, so who knows. I anticipate the complaints anyway.
Either way, I’ve known since day one that many people didn’t actually judge the game themselves. As usual with the sheeple mentality, as soon as one person complained about the perceived linearity or something like that, more people joined in to complain before they even played it. They already judged it as crap before starting and began a brand new gaming experience with a critical eye and forgot what it was to play the game for itself.
I’ve said it countless times, they made a mistake when they didn’t unlock the full gameplay functionality earlier, and failed to integrate some game world lore into the plot. Major issues, but not game-breaking at all in terms of overall experience for me.
I beat the game 100% because I have a compulsion to finish what I start. It has no subtelty and no depth. There are 3 enemies in the entire game that require you to actually think and none of them are part of the main storyline.
There’s a lot of subtlety. Play it again.
And you haven’t played the game.
I’d still fuck her.
in japan trap lighting fucks you
Yes we know you’ll do it even if it a dude or chick
what the hell…
i COULD accept that crap outfit… BUT a Lightning without her gunblade?? bullshit… thats just the worst idea they got
I dont mind this. She always was clothed, so this doesn’t mean to much. Does it look better? She alwayss had a mystical feeling to the way she looks that makes her mysterous. In fact, kinda makes her look better, but she doesn’t loiok much different from before.
But in all honesty, if we are complaining about the amount of cloths the girls have in this series, its kinda a waste. The girls have always been well clothed in this series, so its not to much a of a surprise.
Just needs a hood and we’re all good.
Assassino! Find the assassino!
JRPGs need to stop with those overly exagerating clothing and weapons that looks like toys, the old jrpg classics were way more clean.
And WJPRGs need to stop of being star wars or LotR clones.
Haha no they were not.
yes they were.
Radiant Historia was good but it could have been more… flexible. When a game uses time travel as its main plot device, one would think that a less linear story line would have been more suitable. Play time line A until you can’t go further, ok time line B until I learn ability X, then back to A until I learn Y… that was used far too often. Perhaps I expect too much from a DS game 🙂
@WEL: Me? Not exactly. I can pull out some images and tell you again and possibly look at what you played, but there’s no point.
you are the one that needs to play more. Just face it, you’re wrong….
That whole look comes from the time of visual kei bands like der en grey, which was after the 8/16bit era ended, faggot.
Radiant Historia is a great game. ^_^
Oh yeah I would also add the amazing Radiant Historia for the DS, one of the best recent jrpgs, fortunately Atlus know how to delivery good games of the genre.
I respectfully disagree, but I won’t get into it since it’s too long and I’ll just say that, lol.
tl;dr: I don’t really mind, it sets them apart from the norm. I thought VC had a very boring design, but it fit the setting.
Ive played a lot, like ever since chronno trigger, FF6, phantasy star etc and its quite obvious that the overly exagerated clothing its something more recent.
From the recent jrpgs games, the ones i could say that have excelent character design are valkyria chronicles, shin megami tensei and xenoblade the rest is quite poor, I would mention that dark/demon souls have excelent design as well but its not exactly the classic style of jrpg.
Nope. You need to play more.
The Shield & Sword looks like something that was inspired by Gundam
Whats wrong with being a Gundam :3
FF XIII-3 Lightning Gundam Returns.
I actually want to see her battling Zakus and beating the shit out of this emo-guy Kira hehe.
That would be insane but: shut up and take my money hahaha^^
huh first thing i thought was she looked like Dante from devil may cry
Why do they keep trying to shove lightning down our throats. Every game she’s ever been in has bombed. He needs to get this into his head that the public doesn’t want to see FFXIII or lightning anymore. He needs to start with a new main character and not this played out one.
I’m so damn sick of Lightening. Thank god this will be the end of her stupid saga.
Luckily, she will make it in the next KH, I’m sure.
They aren’t. The games she’s been in outside of her own are ones you’d expect her to be in considering she’s part of the Final Fantasy series; Dissidia, for example. And neither are you forced to buy the XIII games.
But I don’t think you represent the public.
They choose that outfit to have a visual more spectacular with parts of “flying clothes” (don’t know if it’s the good term in english) so it explains the look and that’s pretty interesting to see her moving in game but the whole look is atrocious, what’s with this part of aircraft on her, just pantsu no armor neither shorty. Like if they thought : “Hey let’s take 2 rectangular pieces of cloth and fix it with 3 ring at the top of her leg it’ll be ok”.
The quicker square is bought by a serious company the better. Their leaders are messed up to keep a team who disappoint continuously their (now ex)fans.
I didn’t play the first two, more than likely won’t pick this up either.
I gotta disagree with these guys. I think Lightning’s outfit is awesome.
Wel.. Lightning’s outfit in XIII and XIII-2 was cool too. But this one is also Awesome
I like it, too. Nothing to complain, except that she appeared and will appear again in bad games only.
Don’t listen to the other fuckers replying to your comment, they’re the type of people that want some burly baled headed guy with a cigar and roid rage to be wearing that. And only then will they be complimenting how awesome the outfit is. Bunch of bitches.
Or how bout a design that DOESN’T make you look like an asshole across a wide spectrum of worlds, including your own?
you have shit tastes
Here comes the DQ or Tales of fanboy with your silly rivalry against anybody who says a good thing about the FF franchise.
Oh, heaven fucking forbid someone likes something that you don’t and said person doesn’t conform to the sense of individuality that you’re OBVIOUSLY such a master of at your tender and young age of under 22 years.
Truly, your broad-mindedness is a shining example for us all.
your taste is shit.
Both are full of shit. Get that shitty ass shit out of here…damn shitheads.
You taste of shit… And smell… Hey, you ARE shit!
Yeah. At first, I wasn’t so sure, but over the past week it just kinda grew on me. It looks good in-game.
Maybe its just the breastplate for me, it just seems rather…out of place? Or maybe its all the black around the centre of the outfit. I’m not sure, it just feels strange.
@03:44: There’s a body suit so no.
It sort of looks like armor, but really is just the next worst thing to a plate bikini, a plate one-piece. Thighs, back, sides, under the arms, neck and face are all vulnerable. And what’s that stuff holding on to the coverings for her legs? Basically clothespins, right?
From the back it looks like a trench coat, and lightning could pull off a trench coat. It was the height of fashion in the 20’s, but I guess Lightning is an exhibitionist :3
Probably because it looks empty? I can see what you mean. The problem is she looks more covered than before which makes it seem over-designed. There’s also a body suit under, but it looks like the color of her skin.
Nomura shouldn’t have tried to add different styles to the mix, but oh well.
I say, the corset look simply does not mesh with the Evil-Overlord Spaulders.
>> Lightning Returns: “But She Looks Like A Joke Now!”
Much like the entire FF13 series: A joke.
If you haven’t played it, I really suggest you give it a shot rather than take on other peoples’ perspectives. If you have, well… sorry it’s not FF7? You can play that anytime you want.
Wasting $20 is not worth it , just download the demo
Nice Sarcasm, especially from someone that names themselves after one of the most joke characters to grace Anime.
XIII/XIII-2 is probably a lot better than any RPG you consider not to be a joke.
confirmed for butthurt fanboy
There’s nothing silly about disliking a bad game.
confirmed for silly FF13-hater.
Oh no, not XIII again…For god sake, how about they stop to waste time and money with this shit and try to revive the old and good FF?
The Elevens have no taste.
This design is awesome.
Get out, britanian.
I love Lightning… the first one. XIII-2 and 3 are garbage
Judging by the trailer Lightning wants to be Raiden. But it wont work with the shitty FFesque combat system.
Nope. KH.
Nope. KH.
I like the new lighting her outfit is not as reveling as her others and its not degrading to woman. This is a step in the right direction for game makers to stop making sexiest outfits.
When EMO attacks. It Crit hits in games.
i don’t care if people don’t like it

I think it may be more fun than XIII-2
Lightining >>>>>>>> Any Dragon Quest or Tales of Main Character.
…I just feel bad for you, really. Poor one…
Everybody blames Square for screwing out with FFXIII but first the problem is that their focusing more on getting more attention worldwide that on japanese. well I don’t blame them, Square enix since FFX its getting a lot of preassure because everyone wants the perfect RPG. GROW UP leave that up to your dreams
Wtf dude even Japanese people hate this game ,have you not read the news when it came out over there? Hardly anyone bought it and SE could of focus making other game or finish game but no they think FF13 will some how sell
Nop, I don’t blame Square, I blame Enix…
Uh what in the hell are you talking about? FF13 has been more about the Japanese tastes than Westerners. Look at wrpgs and compare them to modern jrpgs.
I like it. It’s nice looking and a good callback to her old design with the collar and such. This is tame compared to previous designs in FF though.
Anyways, I look forward to the game. 2013 is looking good.
Luulz this graphics are so ugly … Design also.
Dammit, Square Enix! This is why we can’t have nice things!
