Yesterday the Final Fantasy XIII-2 Ultimania Omega went on sale in Japan and fans have already begun to leak the information revealed in the developer interviews the book contains. Below are translations of a few questions asked to director Motomu Toriyama, writer Daisuke Watanabe, and producer Yoshinori Kitase. It seems the implication is that Lightning’s story isn’t over, and it won’t be continuing in another DLC chapter.
Updated: Thanks to Erren of Novacrystallis.com, I’ve translated more sections of the interview. Contains plenty of spoilers, you’ve been warned.
Besides what future projects Toriyama wants us to look forward to, he and Kitase also commented on fan’s reactions to all the DLC content that accompanied FFXIII-2.
— Have you heard the feedback from players about the DLC? (From P413)
Kitase: Although we don’t receive direct feedback, they seem to be rather popular according to their star marking in the platform download shops.
Toriyama: I think after this I’d like to do an in-house recap concerning the feedback of the DLC.
The Omega Ultimania also contains interviews with the Japanese voice actors, other staff and developer interviews, as well as artwork and illustrations pertaining to the title. To check it out yourself, you can buy it off Amazon.co.jp. Thanks to Erren of Novacrystallis.com and http://blog.game-de.com/ for the interview snippets.
