Very open ended ending, which I'm assuming the DLC closes some of the threads? Let me know what happens story wise in the DLC!

Closure? In MY FF?

Closure? In MY FF?


Most of the titles from 1987-2001 had this!

That's why I said SOME of the threads. I figured something more had to be resolved than the ending gave me >_>

Lightning DLC pretty explains just how she ended up on the throne like that at the end with a hint of XIII-3 at the very hint

Sorry, sorry. I meant closure in MY MODERN FF. We stopped getting closure in the original game around X, though X at least got X-2 to close up those problems.

I... er... I...

FFX has my favorite game ending and I loathe X-2, so I... cannot agree with that statement!

Yeah, FFX closed itself pretty neatly to the point that in order to have an excuse for a sequel they had to add in an extra scene for the international release. If you ignore that last scene and FFX-2, what isn't closed in FFX?

And it's remarkably easy for someone who sticks their fingers in their ears and says "no, FFX-2" (such as myself) to just take that added scene on a metaphorical level, too! >_______>

... if you ignore something that happened in the original game, everything is closed? The hell?

X-2's great, though. Assuming you completely ignore the main characters, of course.

They literally added that scene afterward to promote the sequel. Not to mention it's so damn easy to blend into Tidus high-fiving Jecht and then emerging in his own personal heaven. So damn freakin' easy, regardless of author intent.

Yes, if you ignore the scene they added after the initial game came out that they included specifically to give an excuse for (and to promote) a sequel, the initial game as it was wraps up perfectly. I'm not quite sure what the issue is here.

X-2 was a lot of fun. Fun minigames, fun battle system ( ya go my on the fly job system), and honestly exploring a Spira "at peace" is and interesting concept.

Stop being so sexist :P.

X closed up pretty well on its own, X-2 is just what occurs afterward.

(Mainly just that last line. The rest is kinda true, but just not worth it at all for me. <3)

XIII-2's DLC doesn't change the ending, it just gives more explanation on what happened. Basically how Lightning ended up as a crystal after her fight, and some hints about XIII-3. Original ending was good on its own, though.

Also I am not a fanboy of FFXIIs but come on it and XIII totally had definite plot closure. I mean sure in XIII the ending is bit unexplained mechanically, but thats what the games encyclopedia entries are for <_<.
