Caius was more iconic among the FFXIII antagonists, if only because of the Garland formula and the fact he has stood toe-to-toe with Lightning after practically becoming She-Ra.

The only other character that could've come close would be Cid Raines.

Also, that goddess with the glasses was Jihl Nabaat... beautiful Jihl Nabaat... how I will miss her.

 

[Nikotsumi]

I really don't see Jihl Nabaat and Yaagh Rosch being potential villains for FFXIII, they're just forgettable minor antagonists (I like their design though xD)
Type-0 is in a pretty similar situation as XIII. The main villain is Cid Aulstyne

But we never see him fighting in his "human form", you only fight him when he turns into this abomination :

Spoiler

The Rursan Arbiter

Though, I'm sure they'll figure something out, as they did with Cloud of Darkness from FFIII.
For FF Tactics they could just go with the first form of the final boss (Altima).

 

[UpSideDownGRUNT]

Cid Raines could work

 

[Jadeinchains]

Oh yeah U.N Owen Jihl Nabaat was her name. They wasted a great design with her, she had what I thoughthought could have been good potential before she got killed out of no where.

Cid Raines could work

Wait, this guy being the representative villain for XIII?

That would be so underwhelming. That's like Loqi representing all villains in FFXV:

 

[DestructionBomb]

Well... it is only the vanilla build.

Was Loqi the guy ion that mech? The first boss battle I'm sure. I still don't know what his deal in the story actually was, also I still think Caius will just have to be the villain rep for the whole XIII trilogy.

Yes, Loqi was the guy inside the mech. He didn't die when it exploaded though. The must have warped or teleported out there somehow, lol, because you actually confront him again in one of the post game missions.

At some point they need to go into detail about a lot of this stuff, I still have no idea why they didn't have a bestiary as part of the game menu or a codex considering one of the big things is that they just didn't have time to add a lot of context to things but they could have through a codex, they could ha e had ones for all the creatures the locations and characters and terminology in it.

Well, they seem to think stupid festivals and multiplayer are all as or more important than fixing the actual game.
I still can't get over the fact that they built an entire demo with new bosses, new character models and new cutscenes just to be played on their game launch party:

Into this and into loads of other side stuff did and do they put their resources and efforts rather than making the actual game a finished and polished experience.

This scene is funny and should have been in the game:

 

[Jadeinchains]

Wow I'd never seen that before, I have to say that actually is really cool even though it is taking away from what they could have been doing instead. Also that's crazy that it was Prompto in his younger form!

I'm excited for festival though I do think there's things thwy should focus on other than the multiplayer like a codex or something to clear up the world. And obviously the episodes are going to be good for that.

 

[DestructionBomb]

I mean, once Dissidia drops people will hardly touch FFXV to some degree. Once content drops people will play it and then go right back to Dissidia. I too fall to such category.

 

[Jadeinchains]

Also on that footage Tyaren lol there's one big problem... The gameplay! I've said it once and I'll say it again dance while the record spins, my god 90's dance music was amazing not to be mean to them but why do all of these Japanese game previews seem to get these people to play there games that are so bad that the idea of moving the camera with the right stick is a foreign concept to seem.

I think I'd be lying if I said that I wouldn't do this cause once Dissidia comes out it will be full of new things to do, not that its that bad or anything since I have completed pretty much everything there is to do so far so until new content comes out I wouldn't have much to do.

I've been listening to this beautiful FFIX track in the Regalia all the time.

 

[UpSideDownGRUNT]

I stopped caring about the story about 1/3 through the game, so I couldn't care less anymore.

Ive already moved on, I'll just play when the dlc episodes come iut or when they release decent dlc for the main game.

I'd say the song I've listened to the most while driving has been Seymour's battle theme, its just so good even if that fight was annoying.

Lol that's cold Grunt XD But I'm still hoping for additional outfits and stuff in the future too, it'll definitely keep me coming back for more since I love additional content. I'll play later today too when I get the chance, I'm currently on Dragon Quest since that's the game I've neglected and hadn't played much.

As for regalia music I haven't really messed with it, I can't hear the music much because of the effects and even with speakers plugged into my TV it's still a bit quiet. >_>

 

[Aerospark]

Don't know if anyone's posted this, I just skimmed the thread so I apologize if it's been posted already x_x. But this would be nice, and it'd line up nicely with FF's 30th anniversary.

 

[Nikotsumi]

Not Alone and Something to Protect are my favorites from the IX soundtrack.
I only to listen only to VIII, IX, X, XIII and Type-0 soundtracks (III, VII and XII too every now and then).

^ this. It should be louder.

I kinda blame myself tho, this is my TV's layout and I fear the size and the smaller speakers I plugged into the headphone jack may be the cause:

It's not very big so I may have to buy a bigger flat type screen TV in time. XD But I do honestly prefer the radio option that lets you listen to tracks when wandering on foot, it's my preferred way on getting around tbh plus I feel the sound is louder and even more so if you stay still and listen when you have nothing to do.
