Thanks for the interest! We are in the same boat Pi. It felt like XIII had some really meaningful themes going for it, but fell flat in the end and was consumed by the dumbed down happy-go-lucky mentality and atmosphere that is Final Fantasy in general. I'm trying to salvage what was good about it and circumvent the shortcomings. While I do have most aspects of the roleplay planned already, to the last detail, is there anything anyone of you would like to see in terms of concepts, culture, technology, bestiary, or anything else?
