Like wtf is this? Robots, stationary rotary guns, cars and motorcycles. I don't even want to buy this for $5 for those awful summons.

Eh, they aren't really worth using most of the time. The rest of the game is still worth $60 though.

The worst thing about the summons is that they are useless in battle and you will only ever use them during the couple story parts that require you to.

What's with the fact that they summon the character and then, in the video, it seems it takes another turn before they can actually command it do something?

I know, what the fuck? The thing cradling her afterwards and the smile on her face makes it worse.

I hate FF13 as much as the next guy but the only bad one was Odin because it was dull and uninteresting but I suppose that matches its user's personality.

If you're gonna go with ridiculous over the top transformer summons then by god they better be ridiculous and over the top.

Only use I ever got from them was the first few times I fought adamantoise type creatures since they would automatically be dropped to the floor.

Um, hell no theyre not useless. They automatically. Use them once you've broken an enemy and they will tear through them like paper. Also don't they automatically heal your party?

They suck. You are much better off not even using them unless you are facing adamantoise.

If you want cool summons play Persona.


I am currently enjoying Persona 5. Unlike FF series, Persona games keep getting better instead of worse.

They're playable summons at least. They weren't implemented that well since they're on a timer so you never get familiar with their attacks.

2 is worse
It's not as nice looking as 13 and it doesn't have shirtless snow so it doesn't have those two things going for it

Playable summons was never a selling point for FF. Maybe FF X, but that's stretching it.

The open world and combat killed it for me. Such a boring open world with boring side quests and hold circle for combat... i loved the combat in 13, wish they kept it and tweaked it. Music was nice too. Story and characters were utter shit tho.

Yes and no. It basically plays itself once the action bar fills.

I'd only even consider XV if a GOTY edition or something popped up on Steam for >$20. And even then I'd probably pass.

bruh fuck out of here with that BS given how FF12 used the gambit system. It literally plays itself and FF 13 is no worse in any aspect as far as that goes.

FFXII was better since you could actually set how you want the characters to act. XIII gives you no such freedom.

In XII you can program your characters to behave whoever the fuck you want. XIII is a piece of shit that plays itself and only gives you the illusion that your input matters. You literally walk down a halway, enter a battle, watch the game play itself and continue walking down a hallway when you're done. SUpposedly the game opens up after 40 hours, but no sane person would stick around for that long.


But you knew all this already. You're just salty cause I pointed out a flaw in a game you like and started attacking another game that had not even been mentioned in this topic.
