What was your reaction when you found out that the main character of Final Fantasy XIII was a girl?

My reaction was soild. It really didn't matter to if the main character was a girl or not. As long as the gameplay is fun and the story is interesting, I could care less if the main character is a girl. Plus shes hot!

I thought it was a great idea the main characters have all been boys so far and it will make a great change.

That was my reaction as well.

But her CG model looks better than her real-time model. Her face seems flatter and more pale in the real-time model.

Anyone get this impression? Maybe I'm just shallow and picky...

It's nice to see games having more of a balance. I don't think it's a particularly big deal, but I'm glad that companies like Square-Enix (unlike some of their fans) understand that yes, it really is okay for a game's protagonist to be female.

First off, the girl in the trailer has been announced not to be the main character of Final Fantasy XIII by Square Enix. When I first saw the trailer I was blown away by her acrobatics and combat skills and was very happy as well since we have only seen a female main character in the Final Fantasy series twice. However amazing she does look, if you saw a trailer of Yuna doing all of that before Final Fantasy X-2 was released, we would probably be saying the same thing. And look what happened to her character. So I'm really hoping that the FFXIII girl has a strong character to back up her fighting ability.

Where was it confirmed that she wasn't the main character in the game? All I've seen is this "The battle scene in the E3 trailer shows the main female character fighting enemies on her own. Toriyama confirmed that the main character will indeed fight as part of a party..." and a mention that the guy we see in the FF XIII Versus pictures is the main character in that game.

Yep sure, the news was announced in the magazine Gemanga, saying that the character will probably not be the protagonist for the game. Find the link here.

Okay, so now we have this: "EGM: What can you tell us about the heroine of FFXIII?
Toriyama: We can’t tell you all the details, unfortunately. Looking at the history of the FF series, there were already female main characters, like in FFVI, FFX, and FFX-2. This time, one of the characteristics of this heroine is that she’s not that feminine. I tried to make her someone very strong, independent. When I asked Mr. Nomura to design this character, I requested someone like a female version of Cloud from FFVII."

Is she, or isn't she the main character?

I feel that one of the reasons that FFXIII has a female lead has to do with our love of previous heroines in the FF series. They were all great characters, although they never had a main lead until FFX-2 came out. I feel that this game was FF's attempt on feeling the general mood and acceptance of a female lead. I find it an awesome idea! I can barely wait to get it! Game On.

I remember reading something that said the main central character was definetly a female, they said they wanted her to be strong, independent something similar like Cloud just not as anti-social. I also read that interview from two posts up and has proved what I read.

I think that this girl is the main character, but as they said they haven't released any other information on her from what we saw in the trailer so all anyone has at the moment is speculation and ideas. For a magazine to go off and say its probably not her is a bit of a jump as Square Enix hasn't even announced anything of the sort yet. We only really have our impressions from the trailer that she might be.

Hmmm... let's see.

Her outfit is like Yuna from X-2. The face is quite confusing but it kinda looks like Tidus.

Well, I see they're trying to heal their wounds from X-2 :question:

What you said can't be sorry; as in the interview they made it clear that these two characters aren't connected to one another as their two worlds are seperate. The storyline doesn't intertwine at all and the only thing that the games have in common is the mythology. They said though that there is a possiblity that down the line the two characters might meet, so who knows what can happen in the years after the games are realeased.

I wonder if the  main character of FFXIII will still be a female?

what has SE shown about FFXIII so far?  a teaser trailer right?
and what do we see in that trailer?

a girl travelling, beating everyone's ass to the ground, and getting ready to fight a big machine(probably a boss) all on her own...

hmmm...gee...doens't that just make you wonder who the protagonist will be? damn...

Soulja_West, Im not dissing you just so you know. Its just that its kinda obvious to me.
and I like 2pac too!

I was more than thankfull. The FF series hasn't had a good female lead since Tera. And will be wonderful to see this new girl in action.

Female heroes > Male Heroes > Angsty Male Heroes (Common in FF)

That's meant to be a rumour as they have stated that the main character is a female and they wanted her to be like a female version of cloud, which I always thought this girl looks like. Read the interview. I'm still concerned though. I like the idea of a strong female role in Final Fantasy even though I'll still play it if it isn't. I think people are already used to her and would be foolish to change her even though the game won't be released for some time yet.
