Final Fantasy series lineage generally is a complicated business, so be aware: Lighting Returns isn’t a remake of Final Fantasy XIII, as the title might mislead you into FFXIV Gil concluding; nor can it be even a direct sequel to this game.

It’s actually the sequel to Final Fantasy XIII-2, and sees the tip of the Fabula Nova Crystallis story arc first begun in FFXIII. This strikes me as just the sort of confusion destined for any series that began using a proclamation of finality.

As far as useful bits of Final Fantasy 14 Gil promoting go, this looks like it's one on the most efficient, at least. Especially because it allows you to avoid rushing through character creation to actually get the right name. Now you can take some time and make sure each slider is adjusted to perfection.
