I JUST beat Lightning Returns Final Fantasy XIII. The game was amazing; and not because I'm a hardcore Final Fantasy fan...because I'm not. I thought the story was well done because it's not a "simple" story. The character development happens beneath the surface of the game. It's the kind of story that requires you to really pay attention to realize it; especially since the MAIN plot of the game is what's really emphasized. The ending was phenomenal, and it nearly made me cry. It's one of those endings where you realize you've been with this cast of charcaters for so long, and now that it's about to end...you realize that this IS the end. It's a bitter sweet moment, especially the epilogue.
If you have not played the XIII series, I highly recommend (DESPITE the badly written reviews on the net. No offense them.) The games aren't for the light hearted, and I admit it does require a bit of determination, and perseverance as there WILL be times when you feel it's more of an obligation than anything else. However, if you can get passed all that...you're in the for an amazing trip.
Now I'm about to play Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch. I had started my play-through when it came out, but when the open world moment occurred it just made me want to stop playing. Not that there was anything wrong with it, but it was intimidating. O//_//O
(I got scared of Dead Space. xD)
