"You don't know yet!"
Final Fantasy XIII is a game that confuses me to no end. Unlike previous games there are barely any superficial Final Fantasy elements to it other than a few references to Chocobos. There's no prelude, victory theme or much in the way of a world to explore. I don't think the Hallway jokes land these days as much as they did in 2009 but I am still baffled by a lot of the design decisions that this game went through. While the battle system has its merits, as does the fantastic score and visual design, Final Fantasy XIII's story being a complete noun soup (in the worst way possible) and having not a lot of ways for players to really absorb themselves into the world really makes this one of the most frustrating games in the series.
