As for IGN, a hopeful tone at the end is the most we can ask for at this point.

At least this installs some silver lining for prospect players.

I agree with you and him as well. I can't remember XIII's NPCs either at all but in the same breath it should be noted that at very least I remembered the storyline of it.

XIV's storyline to me is almost as good as no storyline at all and I can't remember any of it because it's such a mess. Same goes for NPC's it's sort of an insult to NPC quest characters in other FF titles to call XIV's quest givers characters at all. They're leve cards and that's all they are currently.


Still looking at the big picture XIII as a game is a complete failure to me as it's almost like a parody of so-called "modern western game design" whereas XIV still is under development and it can be made into a good game if SE let's go of the bad design choices that are never going to be fun. (see all the reviews for further info, do we really need to keep giving them the same critique they've received from pre-launch?)
