And the game just updated, possibly "correcting" the above DLC unlocker.


EDIT: Patch updates some of the game data archives so it probably locks DLC access.


I like how if they need to actually fix anything in the game it takes them 3-4 months to do it. But when they want to "fix" something the user wasn't suppose to see it takes them 3 days.

So that's really what the patch was? Removing the leftover DLC files that we "weren't supposed to have"? Really? Fucking SE, man

I'm rapidly getting fed up with this company. The game is broken and what do they do? They spend the time putting out a patch that removes the hidden/disabled DLC outfits and replace them with stock models instead, same with the weapons.

No performance fixes. No visual fixes. Just more dickery.

I'm glad I read that post on the Steam community forums first and that Steam schedules downloads a few hours down the line before downloading them so I had time to back up the game and then restore the altered files.
(Kept the patched files too for whatever reason but if it's now confirmed they did indeed block DLC content there's probably not any actual fixes in this update.)

honestly i would rather have the mission DLCs unlocking at the same place as in PS3 version (iirc it was after History Crux or what its called - here is after beating the game) than having these cosmetic ones

but yeah this was pretty asshole move , they should rather fix the game

I wanna get into these (FF13-2 and onward) but you guys aren't making it sound very appealing Laughing
GTX 980 SLI right?
Then you'll probably have the durrante experience with XIII-2, maybe 1 or 2 drops to 30 fps Laughing

Been away for about a day and a half so this reply is a bit late but here's the website for the tweaker programs. Smile

This is for Final Fantasy XIII with the latest patch. (The one adding graphical settings.)
https://ayuanx.wordpress.com/2014/10/24/ffxiii-pc-language-changer-camera-unlocker/

This is for Final Fantasy XIII-2
https://ayuanx.wordpress.com/2014/12/17/ffxiii2-pc-tweaker/


Both feature the ability to change localization, free camera movement along with some other tweaks like adjusting zoom and for XIII-2 you can further set bloom strength.

For XIII-2 you can also unlock DLC which will allow you access to the restricted outfits and Chocolina will sell the other DLC gear, as with other weapons it's tiered so at first you will have the starting stuff and towards the end of the game they will rival the higher-end normal weapons.


EDIT: Speaking of DLC Lightning Returns seems to have had a much greater focus on character customization including far more outfits and weapons (And shields.) so I wonder how much of that will be ported to PC.
(Since a lot more stuff ended up in DLC addons.)

http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_Lightning_Returns:_Final_Fantasy_XIII_Garbs

(Some of them actually look like armor too! Razz )

http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_Lightning_Returns:_Final_Fantasy_XIII_Weapons
http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_Lightning_Returns:_Final_Fantasy_XIII_Shields

Since outfits give certain abilities cutting out some of them will mean the loss of said abilities too so it will be interesting to see what Square will do when this is ported over in ~3 months or so.
(There's also the reward shop for things like that online score competitions which I have no idea how they'll use on PC but Steam might work, some items are also exclusive to that service like the Pallas Athena outfit.)

Yup, there's some great outfits in Lightning Returns but I'm betting we get fucked with those too, either removing half of them or locking them behind another bullshit arbitrary "oh, you must finish the game first!" gate. Still.. I want my motherfucking SOLDIER and Buster Sword outfit! \o/

Those are unfortunately the ones I fear are most likely to be cut due to "reasons" but we'll just have to wait and see I suppose.

For outfits ( That's these again. - http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_Lightning_Returns:_Final_Fantasy_XIII_Garbs ) I think all the ones under "Astral Lord" is at risk, minus perhaps the three last ones as those seem like general DLC releases.
(EDIT: Which ends up meaning all DLC outfits minus just those three, at worst.)

Many of them are either promotional DLC* and pre-order exclusive content and some of them also require playing other products or demos to unlock which don't exist on PC.
(* - Buying from a certain store or buying stuff like certain extras like a guide book.)

Might even include gear that would unlock for having save files from XIII and XIII-2.


EDIT: A DLC unlocker is probably likely but I kinda doubt Square will make the same oversight they did with XIII-2 so the content might work but will look like other standard outfits.

I FUCKING KNOW, RIGHT!? Why the hell can't we have THAT?! Mad Mad Mad

@JBeckman

Originally, a lot of outfits required purchasing different games or preordering for codes, but they were eventually released as bundles separately. You can buy the FF "Classics" Bundle from PSN/XBL which comes with the previous Final Fantasy outfits, like SOLDIER and Yuna Summoner.

@Sabin

That does make things a bit more positive then. Smile
(Or it means they'll make them DLC separate purchases, heh well they didn't with XIII but that game never got any DLC and for XIII-2 they did include the content although some were blocked.)

@Tonizito

I think the Miqo'te outfit got some flak already (That's the cat themed one.) but yeah there's a few interesting outfits looking more like bikinis or fancy gowns.
(Seems it even had a few wallpapers. - https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=lightning+returns+miqo%27te+outfit&biw=1824&bih=998&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=rx-cVL7zBMb5ywPujoHICw&ved=0CAgQ_AUoAw#imgdii=_ )

Yeah, the "fans" when nuts over some of the dresses, including Miqo'te, because they claimed Lightning was too sexualised and that she would never dress or act like that.

*sigh*

So in my region FF 13 costs 7.23$ (was planning on buing it but thought that the price will even drop more)
But as far as i could read on this page now square is pulling some shiet.
So question: do ppl who play the yarr version have an advantage (do you actually get punished for buying the game?)

Naw, both versions of XIII are the same. No advantage/disadvantage to either copies -- though XIII-2 Yarr version *can* be downgraded so that you can get back the hidden DLC which works with the unlocker. Legit version has had the DLC removed so the unlocker no longer works.

You ~can~ downgrade the legit one also... I tried it and it works.
xdelta for the models and an xdelta for the exe to "unlock it" straight without the earlier tool (which I have not tried back then xD)

A topic named "Final Fantasy XIII (Unused/Beta/Early stuff)" is the source, should be easy to find.
