siliconeraFamitsu reports has new information on Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII. The magazine reports Toshiyuki Itahana, best known for his works on the Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles series, designed Lumina. He was also responsible for designing one of Lightning’s costumes. In the recent trailer, Lightning is seen sporting a purple dress, rapier and Barano shield.
Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII is going to be faster paced. Styles can be switched instantly and commands will be executed the moment a button is pressed. The ATB system will also be busier than ever, as it will also be applied on the field this time around. Actions such as dashing and going down dunes will diminish the action bar, meaning we’ll likely see plenty of action during non-combat parts of the game.
For those of you who’ve been wondering about that fight scene against Noel, apparently Lightning is fighting in an attempt to free his soul.
According to an interview with Tetsuya Nomura, the order was to make a leather body suit for Lightning. The arm pieces were meant to look like spinal cords. However, the shield and sunglasses were designed by someone else.

Lightning Can Guard And Evade Attacks
siliconeraLightning is the world’s last hope in Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII, so she has to save the world alone. Since you won’t have Sazh to soak up damage, Lightning has to defend herself by using a guard move to reduce damage.
Square Enix also added in an evade command which is assigned to a button. Press it at the right time and Lightning will move out of the way. Dodging enemy attacks also sets Lightning up for a counterattack. Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII uses a new battle system where different attacks are assigned to the four face buttons. Lightning can change her garb in battle to change which attacks she has kind of like the Dressphere system from Final Fantasy X-2.

Yung gameplay nito ang naimagine ko dati nung unang labas pa lang ng trailer ng FFXIII. Yung bang more on the Action RPG than traditional turnbase. In terms of Gameplay, eto na yata ang the best sa FF13 trilogy.
Loneliness has followed me my whole life. There's no escape. I'm God's lonely man.

Square Enix has shared new details and screenshots for Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII, showing a new area called “The Dead Dunes,†and new abilities.
“There is good information to be found in the village that huddles around the oasis,†an official description for the new area reads. “It is a perfect base for exploring the deadly wilderness that surrounds it.â€
A leaked scan from this week’s Jump (which I was writing up before this hit my inbox) calls the Dunes “the land of new explorationâ€â€”a vast desert dotted with numerous ruins. Lightning can also slide downhill in these Dunes.
Lightning’s new abilities include “Lightspeed†and recovery magic.
>> Lightspeed: This special ability consumes EP (Energy Points). When unleashed in battle, it slows the passage of time, rendering foes helpess before Lightning’s ferocious assault.
>> Abilities: Lightning now has the ability to case recovery spells on herself. Because the spell consumes EP, it is best kept as a last resort, as it’s wiser to use her supply of potions first.

Now I know why whenever I look at Lightning I feel depressed. She always wears that angry face. Kunot-noo lagi. Laging galit si ate. Hehehe, sorry medyo nag-totroll lang. Sana ma-release na ito so that SE can be more creative with a new universe in the name of FFXV o FFvs13!!!
Lord, give me Your heart to have great compassion; Your eyes to see with my heart; Your ears to hear with my heart; Your voice so I can proclaim Your word with boldness!
