FFXIV single-player prequel trilogy?

I still don't understand why people hate her so much lol

She's like that chubby girl who showed up at your party with a super high opinion of herself, drank all your vintage alcohol, told obviously dramatized stories about how she used to shoplift from limited too, made out with 5 different guys, knocks your fish bowl over because "its mean of you to keep him prisoner", then passes out in your bed when you're dead tired, but not before leaving your bathroom an absolute wreck in an attempt to take a selfie in your (much smaller than her) girlfriend's bespoke lingerie.

That's basically how I view Lightning.

That's..a bit of an over exaggeration..but everyone has their opinions.

Because whether you like it or not the games did extremely well, XIII in itself was a best seller next to FFVII. XIII-2 didn't do AS well but extremely well and XIII-3 did well but not amazingly. So you may not like it, but plenty do just like many dislike FFVII yet they still pump out VII based games simply because it was many people's first FF game and first RPG.

Umm NO it was the fastest selling FF title in history dethroning VIII not the best sold! Not to mention the game was multi-plat! FF7 and 8 are the best sellers and they sold on a single system

Also I don't know what this Prequel Trilogy is I hope they don't start development on it yet and just focus on the projects they've already revealed.
FFXV is LONG over due
KH2 was nine years ago, and now we know that KH3 won't come out til after XV comes out and lord knows when that's going to happen
Type-0?! SE left every Vita owner outside of Japan confused and bewildered about where this game was and then spring an amazing switcheroo that it's coming to PS4 and XB1 when a fan translation was just released!

Of course some will respond with, "You know there's different teams right?" and I point you to the 2007 fiasco, where the FF Versus team STOPPED working on that game to work on FFXIII delaying Versus to the next-gen consoles and getting a rename!

i see no reason at all to not connect something like this to our online accounts so that achievements yield in-game rewards like minions, gear, mounts etc...

to that i say i would play the shit outta any prequel to FFXIV!

[Zoeila]

um... wings of the goddess? which explains why that is not possible at all with that sham put together ending and realization through the story what "our" vanadiel really is ;x

i stopped during ToAU(unvoluntairly) care to spoil that for me?

I'm sorry that that happened to you.

(I mean that you played enough of FFXIII to have that good of a grasp on Lightning's "personality")

WoTG is a prequel expansion , u travel to the past! and even talk to future npcs when they were kids ^^

Why, thank you.
I'm sure to some people, party girl would be (and for some reason I don't get, WAS) a blast.
But from where I stood, she was just obnoxious and constantly jarring her personality down people's throats, regardless of what they were interested in.

Some call that bold, sassy, unique, strong, independent, etc, and that's all perfectly fine.

I call it other things, and wouldn't really invite either "character" back into my loft.

The only core Final Fantasy game I can see getting ANY kind of a Prequel trilogy, lore-wise, is Final Fantasy V. It just feels like... EVERYTHING HAPPENED in Final Fantasy V before the story actually started, and having it be a prequel trilogy would work out, since there's a lot of backstory there. What with the events of 1000 years prior to the story with the fighting and inevitable banishment of the necromancer Enuo to The Void and the world splitting in two, then 20-30 years prior to the story with the Dawn Warriors Galuf, Xezat, Kelger, and Dorgann with the birth and eventual sealing of Exdeath, and maybe something in between those two events, maybe involving Gilgamesh or the Demons of the Void?

A Final Fantasy I prequel would be utterly redundant, a Final Fantasy II or III prequel would be interesting, but unnecessary, a Final Fantasy IV prequel would just be milking the franchise more, a Final Fantasy VI prequel wouldn't make very much sense, A Final Fantasy VII prequel has literally been done at least twice (Before Crisis / Crisis Core), A Final Fantasy VIII prequel would be redundant, a Final Fantasy IX prequel, as cool as that would be, would be silly, I could see a Final Fantasy X prequel happening with Jecht, Auron, and Braska, but nothing that would be trilogy-worthy, FFXI would never get a prequel trilogy, I doubt FFXII would get a prequel trilogy, and if FFXIII gets a prequel trilogy I'm going to be pissed.

Spoilers:

Long story short: Your Vana'diel is not the original/real Vana'diel, as something terrible happened to the original. You and the world you live in is basically an alternate possibility/fake. The only thing WotG had going for it is that you got to interact with certain important NPCs you see in the vanilla game.

This aside, I will laugh and cry if the prequel trilogy has anything to do with FFXIII.
