In today's video we take a look at a potential remake for FFXIII or a remastered trilogy for modern systems and how a remake could give the game a second chance to redeem itself. #jrpg #finalfantasyxiii #finalfantasy13
The world will freak out if FF XIII gets a Remake and not 6 or 8 or 9. I would love to see the Fabula Nova Crystallis being remade and completed this time.
9 Remake is in the works and should arrive sometime next year. Afaik SQ said, that 6 or 8 werent successfull enough to deserve a remake. So after 9 Remake, 13 seems very plausible
To be fair, only XIII and XV are the mainline Final Fantasy games outside the MMOs that haven’t been remastered or remade in any form. Also in terms of the Fabula Nova Crystallis, XIII's story was completed. Type-0 and if you want to count XV aren't completed.
This game needs the Persona 3 Reload treatment. make the combat more fun, fix the pacing issues, add all the cut content, and overall just improve the experience while providing the same story beats
And redo the English voice acting😭 I played FFXIII in Japanese, which was an excellent experience, but the English casting was so bad that I think it also made some players veer away from the trilogy...
@@Absoluuttinen_Totuus Ever since playing through the Yakuza series I've really gotten into Japanese voice acting. I'll need to go back through some games with that option.
@@RPGStory Yeah, I encourage everyone to do so. If you don't have a hard time reading subtitles and focusing on the scenes at the same time, you'll probably find the narratives much more immersive. In my experience, Japanese voice acting almost always brings out more emotions through the characters in any Japanese media. Voice acting is a very serious job in Japan, and they need years of studies and first-hand experience in differing fields of work behind them before getting assigned a bigger role. It's no wonder they're capable of delivering so many iconic lines!
@@RPGStory Nope. It doesnt deserve a remake. It just fits the kinda old but not that old so square can easily up/hd the assetts. Theres plenty of others that deserve a "remake" more then this. And maybe people will second guess themselves of liking it more then they thought. I even downloaded it on pc not too long ago.
@@bojangler9685 I haven't played them since they originally launched on the PS3 maybe I should get on Xbox and see if they still hold up... 😅 But yeah a hd remaster would be the easier choice.
Honestly, ff8 would be one of the better ones to remake as it is very flawed, especially the draw commands, while having a good story along with a great cast, leaving much room for change and improvements.IMHO
@kidrobot. then why does something so optional make the game feel so bad? FYI, I love ff8 it is my favorite, but it's just a very funky system that needed more time to figure it out. IMHO
I’d appreciate a Crisis Core type remaster that adds in some quality of life improvements like being able to save Paradigm set-ups for when you change your party, a chapter replay option upon finishing the story and the choice to skip up to when the group first find themselves l’cie in replays like a NG+ thing. A glossary feature like FFXVI, where pausing has nodes that can be expanded to give some explanation for what something in the conversation means, would help to mitigate complaints about the world building not being too well incorporated into the main story.
I’m really trying to understand this mindset with remake rumors. When there’s a rumor about a remake, there’s always this comment. Saying one prefers a smaller scale/less ambitious remaster/texture swap kind of thing. Why? I mean it’s not like you’re the one working on the game. Why not demand the absolute most out of it? Why stop with a simple remaster if there could be more on the table? I’m genuinely trying to understand this mindset and to see if there’s more to it than OG fan posturing and fearing change. I know there has to be for some people like this, I’m not here to stereotype everyone that thinks like that
OK, everybody’s making a video about this because SE finally replied to a comment about This game needing a remaster and they said something along the lines of “why not a remake?” It blows my mind that they went that hard on it reply..😂 The only reason I would object to a full remake is if the voice actors for the English dub had to be changed, but they could make it more updated like between characters and fun stuff like that I’d be game for it-but the HD remaster for FFX was pretty bad so maybe a remake would look better as the very least ❤
@@RPGStory I hope they’re cooking😂 because if they’re not, this is a cruel joke! I doubt it’s gonna be a 20 year wait like it was for FFVII because they have the best technology right now and our popping out games fairly quick right now with increasing development rates, more engines than ever with really nice enhancements to nearly everything.
Yeah that's the problem with a lot of big games these days they take too long to make but if the tools are there to streamline everything then I'd like to see them put out a remake and a new game in a cycle like what's happening with Resident Evil.
This Game Should get a Remasters for Final Fantasy XIII Trilogy for PS4 PS5 Console Nobody Know anything about it yet it up to Square Enix Developers and Publisher of this Game if they decide to get a Remasters of the Game in the future.
Remaking FF9 or FF6 is the best choice. FFXIII despite of being 15yo the graphics is not that old, and they spent so many years for that game. Instead, why not giving the old FF a chance to be modernize. Many fans doesn't bother for FFXIII to have a remake. Personally, I wish they remake FFT, or non-FF like Vagrant Story instead.
I would like that Under one condition Please don’t make the first enemy hard as heck Same goes for final fantasy 13-2 😒 i don’t get a long with hard beginning games I’m a beginner in some games !
The game is going to be remade at some point. While yes they could remaster it, I think XIII had some pretty amazing cinematic scenes that would be done a great justice if remade/rebuilt for current gen. It would be one of best triple A visually appealing titles
Would love to see a remake as i had fun with paradigms and crystariums. But what i hear is that crystal tools, the engine the game runs on, would be hard to translate to modern consoles. I would love to revisit gran pulse with real questlines, and the cut arks.
Hopefully they are able to do a Final Fantasy VII Remake Trilogy treatment in terms of gameplay, story, and open world changes for all three games. After that I hope they remake V, X, X-2, XI, XII, and Revanant Wings in the same vein the Final Fantasy VII Remake Trilogy as well.
Yeah there's so much potential for remakes of mainline games and spin offs. Resident Evil seems to be in a flow of new games and remakes so I think FF could adopt a similar approach.
@@whiterabbit8243 yes she is the cold uncaring leading hero type at first. Look up the Japanese interviews Lightning is inspired by Cloud and even Sazh is inspired by Barret.
@@whiterabbit8243 Plus Cloud and Lightning are both Soldiers. Cloud is full Super Soldier while Lightning may of had just a small amount of enhancements until of course later in the FF13 Trilogy Lightning becomes an Angel.
A trilogy remaster that actually works on pc would be nice, having to wait 4-5 years for one game is a pain, It would be more interesting if they revived Fortress instead although that would probably never happen.
@@RPGStory It was yeah, Basch was supposed to be the main character, and his role was to defend a fortress from hostile forces over the course of two ingame years and the most interesting thing about it is that there were going to be a fight against a giant malboro.
I can definitely see a remake for FF13. Especially if they do their best to Correct a lot of the Dumb, inconsistent storytelling, Character tropes, and split Mythological ideas on ETRO! Is ETRO a Goddess of Death or a Goddess of Time?! They Need to Make up their Damn Minds! They Can’t have it Both WAYS!
I just replayed the first two, besides the first one being quite flawed but still enjoyable for the story I think they still hold up decently and find it unnecisary. Rather do 6, 8, 9 or 10 imho. Although they should hold off for 6 so the they can eventually do it with some future tech that will make it possible to make it fully remastered in 1 part, but that seems impossible.
Yep I would be up for it, even giving it say the Crisis Core Reunion or NieR Replicant ver 122 treatment (a little logical, since I know some of the main staff from FF13 is currently dead set with the FF7R Trilogy)
I remember liking it but not loving it the flaws are pretty clear but always thought it had more potential if they actually finished the game properly.
i think xiii2 had better gameplay, but wish it was like closer to lightning returns. I think it would get remastered than remake. Remake would be like all 3 games and change combat to be like Rebirth or similar at least
Honeslty id love a remaster like the ffX treatment, just give it a graphical boost with the quality of life updates it needs like character switching and not getting game over on character death. Dont change the battle system at all, the paradigm shift is the best part of the game and it would be ruined with a real time combat like new games.
I'm curious to see what they do with the combat from the rumoured IX remake if it'll stick to turn based or go all action I guess that'll indicate what they'll do for any future updates.
They should leave ff13 alone in ps3 the graphic was gorgeous, anyway thank you buddy for making this awesome video about final fantasy god bless You and bless Your family ameen 😊
i loved 13 an if it gets a remaster or a remake id be happy imagine 13 with remade modern graphics that game was ahead of its time interms of its cgi movies my only thing is i wouldnt want the modern combat style of 15 or 16 just a better turn based one
As biggest fan of Final Fantasy XIII. I very happy they bringing back Final Fantasy XIII Saga love. But i think it's better if they make remaster. Don't get me wrong,but i very worried about their decision making remake of FFXIII. It's just what if they change something or plot. Or Most worst of all...for me. They gonna change English Voices Actors. We know Japanese Voice Actors will stay and continue their roles. But it's just look for example FFVII Remake...They change their English voices actors and making me sad and miss old voice actors because they was doimg good job. Its bad enough Sonic eng voices actors from 2004-2009 are not voicing since they changed their new voices actors since 2010...I like Original English Voice Actors of FF XIII Because they making very good job voicing. They should focing making remakes other FF for example FFVI,V or others.I don’t hate it but in my opinion maybe they should make remaster...or maybe they should make another story of Final Fantasy XIII after Lightning Returns Walkthrough.
As long as they keep the same actor for Lightning I'll be happy as she's one of my favourite characters. Also didn't know until I just checked but the actor also played Liara from Mass Effect!
@@RPGStory Ikr? Lightning's voice is very beautiful,coolest and very gorgeous voices ever! 💗💜💙💚💛🧡❤ and I hope her same Eng voice actress will stays too.
I actually went back to 12 with the remaster and enjoyed it a lot more now that you could speed it up it was painfully slow before I used to spend an entire weekend simply grinding 😭
We need to move on from remakes. Especially from games that just ok at best. A remaster sure but u don’t need to see this story told again. Re series,silent hill, persona, can we get a new game please
I played it and must say I wasn't disappointed but for the love of god it is MID!!! If they remake a single game starting with X before the ones with "I" or "V" then it will clearly just be a cash grab. FFX is my favorite, but honestly I'm setting my pride aside because I want to see the treachery of Kefka in 4K.
I remember them saying they have a script ready but there's never been any confirmation that it's going ahead at least that was the last I heard anyway
nah we need a FFX remake.. FF13 is not that good story wise, and it does not look that outdated yet either we also need a FF6 remake i really hope a 13 remake is not high on the list of priorities for SE..
Nobody asked or wants a ff 13 remake. 4, 6, 8 and 9 are only ones that actually need it although you can argue for a tv series or anime style adaptation assuming you can do it justice. What fans really want is remake / remasters of the games that made Square the powerhouse it was in the 90s such as Xenogears, Parasite Eve, Vagrant Story, Chrono Trigger, etc.
That's what happened to me with the original XII didn't finish that one until the remaster. A X remake would be nuts hope to see that after the rumoured IX.
No Remasters. Just Remakes. Why take a game with original/old graphics to modern consoles? I refused to play FFX and FFX-2 after I bought FF 10 Remastered on modern consoles the graphics look like Super Nintendo.
It would be wasted. The story is bunk-- the characters weak and not memorable beyond surface level and there are too many other better suited options well ahead of FF13 to potentially consider and throw manpower from a business perspective. FF13 was a game that already got 3 games to its name, which meant it had 2 additional attempts to rework and fix all its mistakes every time they put forth a game. In many ways, FF13 was the nail in the coffin game that put Final Fantasy in the backseat and marks a downfall for the entire franchise. To focus on it would be a mistake. To be honest, the people who are true fans of FF13 are contrarians and people who are more or less antithetical to Final Fantasy as a whole by all metrics and accounts.
Yeah I'm under no illusion that XIII is deeply flawed. If they remake it it would need a complete rework which itself would make it an entire new game anyway.
It got three games precisely because it was so popular. Remember; Square Enix is originally a Japanese studio, and most of their games do much better in Japan due to the lack of American-type mindsets and the better cultural affinity there.
I would not recommend this remake. The characters are unlikable. The storyline was not interesting. The transformer-like summons were terrible. In this instance, less is more...
Incredible? Final Fantasy 13 was incredibly TERRIBLE!! The second game's only good part was the casino side quest area. I thought I would never despise a Final Fantasy game besides Final Fantasy 2 and Dirge of Cerberus so much. Square better square things up and not re-release this game if it remains a total flea bag like the original, but then again, Lightning sometimes does strike the same place twice.
I do not think the ffxiii deserve a remake at all. FFVIII should be given a chance. Remember that the ff7 was one of the best game of all time back in the days and ff8 and 9 also pushed the limit of our gaming standards. Yes, the junction system was definitely not very popular but it's because it was a very difficult system to set and not everyone was capable of grasping the system easily. I believe the IP deserve a chance with a redesigned junction system.
Yeah FFVIII definitely deserves another chance in the limelight. If rumours are true then it seems they have skipped it and are going to do IX and possibly even X or X-3.
Who in their right mind, wants a remake of not only this hallway simulator, but the absolutely donkey induced idiotic story that makes absolutely no sense, a mere 5 minutes into the game? What the actual F...
They want a remake of it because it wasn't originally supposed to be a hallway simulator. The story does make sense also but it just doesn't do a good job explaining it in the beginning of the game.
The story does make sense if you pay attention. I played this game for the first time when I was 16 and was STILL able to comprehend it. As for the hallway complaint, I’ve never gotten this. Should the game be a bland, lifeless open world game with nothing but empty space and running errands for NPC’s? Would that be better? They did that with XV and it sucked.
@@swordfish1390 I think a lot of the maps were just straight lines like they didn't know how to incorporate curves 😅 just became too noticeable I think.
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO! ENOUGH WITH THE REMAKES! WE WANT SOMETHING NEW DAMMIT! NO MORE REMAKES! I'M ALMOST TO THE POINT OF BOYCOTTING REMAKES! WHY SHOULD WE PAY AGAIN FOR CRAP THEY'RE JUST REHASHING?! REMAKES ARE A GREAT ARGUMENT FOR PIRACY!
I like to think of remakes as an alternative version 😂 they made a new game with XVI and it gets so much hate I don't think people know what they want from FF these days.
