Johnny Mercyside: Game Review: Final Fantasy XIII (

I personally felt that the characters weren't very gripping,and the actual villain took way long to actually appear.
During most of FFXIII,the main villain were pulse soldiers.A bunch of anonymous men working,without any idea of who was behind it till chapter 12.
By the time the main characters actually meet him,there isn't all that much to him.The music is quite good though for a boss theme.
Lightning was a cold hearted bitch,and she became a whiny girl whining with hope.Early on,she was pretty cold towards the main characters.
Hope:He whines whines,then becomes slightly hopeful,and then whines again at chapter 13.
Sazh:He is usually pretty easy going,but you see a time where he is actually sad because he has to confront vanille,who is responsible for what happened to his kid.
Vanille:she is mostly like selphie:Cutesy and jumping around and happy.I think there are 1 or 2 moments where she isn't,and that is when she is recalling or telling about how she and fang know.
Fang:She is pretty bland.She starts off as the bad girl,and then joins you.We find out that she and vanille knew each other,and that vanille i think? or was it fang? became ragnarok and destroyed the village she came from.Oh yeah:She had some part in turning sazh's boy into a l'cie.
At first,i kinda liked cid raines,because i felt sorry for him.He was trying to change the fate of the world by destroying the heroes,so they can't become ragnarok.Later on though,he is too daft to realise that they are on his side,and instead continues to work with barthandalus.
Its very hard to feel sorry for an idiot like him who has a chance to change,but instead chooses to be barthandaluses tool.
