Final Fantasy XIII-2 preview: Paradigm shift
Attachment 1214
So let's be honest here: Even if you liked Final Fantasy XIII (and I did), odds are that you still thought the game had some issues.
Quote:
The battle system, while nice and complex, did take a while to really get rolling, and put a few levels of control between you and your characters. The world was very linear, making for a long chain of fights rather than any real exploration. And dead mother or not, (again, we're being brutally honest here) Hope was a whiner of the highest order.
The last time we had a sequel to a numbered Final Fantasy game, Square was coming off of Final Fantasy X, and they took the opportunity, with X-2, to go a little goofy with fan service ("Dresspheres"? Really?). There will be some of that in XIII-2, but the stakes are higher this time. The game represents two opportunities: the chance to re-introduce players to what XIII did right, and to smooth out some of the problems players had. According to a little hands-on time we had with the game last week, Square Enix is taking full advantage of that first opportunity, and only grudgingly stepping up on the second one.

As longs as there is the ability to explore and do sidequests other than hunts I will be happy.

Can't a man dream :P
though i'm gonna guess most towns you go through will be infested and you have to clear them out since this takes place during the same generation so I couldn't see massive cities
