i fucking hate this disgusting piece of software some may consider a video game and is a prime example on why listening to fan feedback can backfire terribly. spits in the face of everyone who enjoyed the first one in favor of trying to please the crowd that disliked it to a abysmal degree. Too Linear? make the worlds open to a confusing degree that discourages exploration. Didn't like the story or characters? ok lets just throw them all out the window and create a new cast and shoehorn them into the (absolutely destroyed and disconnected) FFXIII universe that will sure to get people to like them. Theres also only TWO party members for some got forsaken reason and the third slot is taken up by a shitty monster collector. This is genuinely my least favorite game ever made.

Oh there's time travel too, lovely
