Well they weren't exactly by choice xD

But that's why I dislike FF13-2 and FF13 Lightning returns. There was already little much explained in the first one and now they try and throw curveballs to surprise you. It doesn't. It just annoys me and thinks they have poor writers. 

But I didn't enjoy the story all together anyway. I enjoyed the battle system in the first one when you could see the monsters and go up to them. That Lightning got development more then her counterpart in FF7 (but seems to have lost a bit in LR.. But that can be excused with no emotion thing) and that it was pretty.

The clothes changing would be fine if they didn't have to make the outfits skimpy unless it made sense. Why does a black Mage need skimpy clothing? I would of liked her wearing a black full body clothes. But I suppose apparently you can change that so meh. Still a mandatory change if you want it.

Second one I liked for the fact it tried to give you better exploration and... Oh talking to people in cities and doing side quests. In exchange we get Serah.... And she was okay, but she felt wimpy. That and your stuck with her and Sora alike the whole time. Though I also enjoyed the battle system with the monsters.

LR so far I'm not enjoying the battle system. Probably won't enjoy the story like normal. And apparently it's pretty short too. 

But then again, the FF13 series weren't very long so meh. XD
