  • IT'S TIME FOR ANOTHER EIDOLON INTERPRETATION!!! Tonight, we have Bahumat, who represents Fangs feelings of dread and helplessness. She thinks that she can't defeat her obstacles, protect Vanille, or fit in with Vanille's new friends. However, by weakening (Debuffing) Bahumat, she discovers that even the biggest of obstacles can be worn down, and by guarding Vanille and Lightning (using Sentinel) she sees that she can protect not only Vanille but her new friends as well.

  • Frocabo Says Yes XD LOL your priceless HCbailly

  • Comment removed

  • ah ahaha. oh I love your wild commentary Bailly, honestly though, i think the timing was right but the execution of the eidolon scene was off. What they should of done first was have little cutscenes inbetween the hallways and elevators in the facility, showing Fang recapping how she cares about Vanille, then this scene where she freaks out about them going against their focus would make more sense. ^^ ...anyone agree?

  • Fauna are wild animals. And the fauna on Gran Pulse are VERY hungry. So are the flora. And the fal'Cie. I just realized its basically Final Fantasy's version of Australia and Africa combined. Hooray for combo packs! :D

  • WAIT!

    THATS PULSE!?!?!?

  • This place is just like Zanarkand from FFX because you also have to fight Bahamut there aswell. (:

  • @jaistar96 .....nooo you never fight bahamut in zanarkand....unless its maybe the international one where they added the dark aeons.

  • @Sandman382 OK! You get Bahamut in Zanarkand then. Happy. (:

  • @jaistar96 Actually you don't get him there either. :P You get him in the Bevelle temple before you are all arrested. Then you head to zanarkand. Then you fight a dragon just to get inside to find out it was all for nothing.

  • Wait, did Hope get an eidoleon? I saw him get that flash thingy but I don't remember fighting one with him. Or am I just going insane? Which one is his?

  • @KirbyChan He didn't get one yet. It seemed like he was about to but I think it got messed up because of the circumstances. I can't say for sure why though because this is about where I quit the game out of annoyance.*yes right before it 'gets good'* I figure you've already watched far enough by now to know what his eidolon is and if not feel free to message me and I'll say what it is.

  • "Chocobo says yes!" could totally be on a T-shirt

  • It looks like Snow's brand has gained an eye D: That doesn't look good.

  • I see what you did with the ending quote last time of, "Or will we have to summon a God of our own?" Nice FFIV reference HC. Very classy.

  • Flora is plant life

    Fauna is animal life

  • aww i wanted to see if he was gunna kill juggernaut

  • Oh my God! I love this game! The story just keeps getting better and better. And thank God Hope is actually, well, Hopeful for once. :D

  • SPACE BALLS

  • The character delvopment in this game really weirds me out. and I hate it. More so than FF7. I would like this game so much more if they improved on that.

  • ...what would happen if you cut off the part of your body that had the l'Cie tat on it? >_>

  • Bailly: So Hope is going to be the one to cheer us up? What is the world coming to!

    Me: Well his name is hope, & he isn't Squall, so thing could be worse.

  • I don't think that scene was forced...

    fang's friendship with vanille is as strong as the other emotions

  • Gran Pulse looks like Australia. I've seen that scene before in real life.

  • you make me laugh lol

  • Gran pulse looks amazing!

  • So what you are saying is you don't understand Fang's internal conflict here?

    To me it's pretty clear. You seem to think she would just join Snow and the others in simply giving up on the focus and deciding to find a way fight it and the Fal'cie while saving Cocoon. I would think Fang would have difficulty in making a decision like that , especially when the risk is so high that they will fail and Vanille and the others will end up as Cie'th, and that she would be the only one left as well.

  • XD if gran pulse is like australia... everything can kill you XD

  • Sandworms, hate 'em, don't you. Awesome! did not expect a beetlejuice reference here, but it dam well works perfectly here in this video. keep it up hcbailly! ooh, nice that u used the reference from ghostbusters here too as well as in your LP FF VI nice, GET HER!

  • They look so diffrent in the "Welcome to Gran Pulse" cutscene, more tanned and stuff :P

    Would have been nice if the graphics were that nice in the gameplay there.

  • I just like what hope said during the cinimatics. "Oh yeah, Im great!" XD

  • Flora is vegetation and Fauna is wild life.

  • hey HC have you ever tried to play through without using that cheap guy move ?

    you know make it through every battle without retrying

  • @Marius684

    He's been powergaming from the very moment he started, and at least in my opinion I find it better that way, he's showing us the game and advancing smoothly, instead of failing some boss battle by a few points and having to do everything again. He's not trying to prove that he's the master of FFXIII, who avoids all "cheap" moves (Why would they add those options if they didn't want people to use them?) and imposes artificial difficulty upon himself.

  • WHY CAN'T HOPE GET BAHAMUT!? Well, if Hope gets Ramuh, that'd be better.

  • WHY CAN'T HOPE GET BAHAMUT!?

  • if I may suggest I find the output of your voice a little too loud compared to the game output. I hear your videos with earphones and I cannot set the volume to a stable level: If I turn it a little up to hear the game sounds my ears are blown out by your voice (expecially when you laugh :-D) and if i turn it low I cannot hear the game dialogues anymore

  • you're never using Eidolons? too mainstream for this lp or...

  • @redbuck82

    Eidolith is just referring to the crystals l'Cie use to summon their Eidolons.

  • girl power kicks Bahamut's butt!!

  • I just love how Hope turned to such wise and brave person from that coward.

  • I like how Snow is like "Our focus doesnt matter!" and everyone enthusiastically agrees and then 2 minutes later Lightning says "I'm fighting this focus to the end. We all are"

  • Gran Pulse looks a lot like the Iffa Tree.

  • When did Hope get his Eidolon?

  • @nielymoon He didn't yet.

  • In the Final Fantasy games that i have played. there have been some very Motivational speeches from characters. Like Tidus, Auron, Wakka, Yuna, Balthier, Fran,Vaan, Penelo. Pretty much all the main Characters to these games that i know of

  • HCBailly, I know where you got the "STEELGUARD!!!" from . . . ;D

    It was in the game's Launch Party where the voice actors made skits. And the VA of Snow was like "I can handle this! Bring it on! STEELGUARD!"

    But nobody was attacking Snow.

    So Lightning's VA said, "Snow! Don't just fucking stand there!"

  • I like the "Let's all go to hell then!" I feel Fang and Vanille should have been like "You're world is shit too."

  • next time on final fantasy FIFTEEN?!?!?! 15:11 LOL :)

  • @joemom1 i mean on next time on "lets play final fantasy ( FIFTEEN )

  • Gran Pulse at last. This is when it really starts to get fun. :)

  • I'm fine with the coincidence as wlel - since it isn't a coincidence, if they weren't there somebody else owuld be in their place - it's like saying the poeple crashing on the island of LOST were justa coincidence they happen to be on the same plane - it cannot mkae sense without them all being there.

  • @redbuck82 an eidolith is technically a summon

  • Um Hope's Eidolon hasn't been revealed if he even has one that is.

  • Fangs theme reminds me of the realm of Gondor from the Lord of the Rings.

  • One of these days Snows probably gonna drop that tear and have a bitch fit.

    I'm alright with the coincidence too, it's not nearly as bad as the Final Fantasy 8 orphanage.

  • when you siad it was rushed, did u forget that the only person fang really cares about and protects has just told her that she goingg ot become a monster.

  • @master0Fkings ah... Never thought of it that way (always thought like HCB said earlier..).. Hm, that makes sense now, thanks, XD

  • @redbuck82 i believe the eidolith is the crystal the eidolon is in, you see them when you look at the crystarium.

  • 13:29-15:06 lol hc's commentary just made that scene more enjoyable XD

  • Hope being the voice of inspiration is almost as bad as Selphie being the voice of reason....the world really is doomed -_-

  • Flora and Fauna = Plants and Animals respectively.

  • 14.12.....lol valefor's summoning from FFX

  • I wish Bahamut was more dragon-like. In every other game Bahamut is a dragon, but in this one... I don't know what it is...

  • hope reminds me of myself XD i like hope as a protagonist!

  • Hope is trying to charm Lightning :P

  • It's unfortunate that the quality of the cutscenes on the xbox version got dumbed down quality. I gotta say though, nothing beats the nostalgia of swapping discs! xD

  • I can't believe "travelling on your summon" isn't used more in Final Fantasy. Yeah Yuna does the same thing with Valefor, but it remains a cutscene thing. Maybe it's beneath those beasts to play taxi, idunno.

  • Good thing they gave us Bahamut when they did, otherwise we'd be screwed.

  • I'm very dissapointed with this game... Very boring. I've played 4 to 12 and I must say... this is like watching an interactive movie.

  • STEELGUARD! love it

  • Fang is pretty cool and all, but uh who is she again

    well yeah she's relevant to the backstory and all but she doesn't seem to interact with anybody or have any connection to anything other than that

    she's just random tousled-hair sassy lady who really really wants to protect Vanille for some reason

  • where has my "When Lightning smiles, a fal'Cie dies"-comment gone? >_>

    srsly it was high rated >_>

  • Why do they put the target time at a random time like 24:32 for the fight with Fangs Eidolon? The doom countdown only gives you about two and a half minutes anyway...

  • So Fang's Eidolon is a dragon that transforms into a different dragon?

  • I think I hate you now, you beat bauahmut so easily. That boss made me cry a little in rage. Oh well whatever I am over it now, Time for MORE HCBAILLY!

  • Hope now has hope! And a pair of balls.

  • "I wish I had a motorcycle that turned into two hot women" lmao that made my day

  • 14:28-14:30

    Vanille: "You okay?!"

    Hope: "OH YEAH. I'M GREAT. >:O"

  • "No? Okay..." Oh Snow you so funny.

    Anyway since Fang's character is basically just Tough Girl + Loves Vanille this is about her worst moment (so far at least) because Vanille just said "Sure I'll let myself die (or become a monster) with you Snow" and Fang can't accept that. She'll force Vanille to complete her focus even if she has to beat her and everyone else into submission to do it. I don't know if that's as emotional as some other characters but that's how I understand it.

  • @Murkglow

    Also, they can't take the ship they came in on because it was that own. It flys itself and wouldn't take them where they wanted to go anyway.

    Man Hope's pep talk was... You know, there are no words for that.

  • What i love about this game is how on your first playthrough it will kill you so many times, but i feel all other playthroughs afterwards are much easier seeing as you know the best ways to deal with things and then you can do all the extra parts, that way on your first playthrough you get all the plot in one go, not fragmented by digging up treasure with a chocobo

  • Flora and Fauna is the plants and animals of a place, so you used it accurately to mention the various plants and animals I believe.

  • @redbuck82 an eidolith i believe is the crystals they use to summon the eidolons

  • "Takes a shower while your at it" anyone else catch that?

  • Wow for the Bahamut fight i played it safe, you played balls to the wall, well done my friend well done.

  • @mariodaplumber wait then what was all that in chapter 7 and 8. your saying that part wasnt great. dear god i see why all the bgood games get hate. you guys are extremly impacient

  • steel guard the shot LIKE A BOSS!

  • At what point did the l'Cie tattoos get that red mark on them. It happened recently but I don't remember what the exact event that triggered it was.

  • @Venominous its not shown in a event. remember fangs said how the tattoo is going to change to show how much time you got left. it progressivly changes over the game. basicly at this point of the game the party is basicly at the your post-fucked point in the tattoo. when you get to chapter 12 it changes one last time

  • So Bahamut is a dragon/jet and a black/purple color scheme wasn't aware Megatron was in a Final Fantasy:P

    Bahamut(in Beast Wars Megatron voice): Eidolons terrorize! 

  • When the flying sandworm destroys the airship... What happens to Sazh? You see Vanille and Hope fall, Snow says save them and Lightning and Fang jump out. But Sazh just magically ends up on Bahamut. That crafty crafty pilot.

  • I never notice it after like playing the game three times but lighting has a piercing O_o lol just look at 4:43

  • @zppoter i didnt even notice she showed her belly button till like borderline 100 hours into the game almost getting the platinum

  • @HCBailly i am a little dissapointed the original game designer left the team (cant remember his name for the life of me) but without him it seems like the rest of square is not quiet sure what to do...

  • @TheSpazhero square didnt have a main game desighner. they just have a different one for each game. the one ho left was the guy who made FF9. they still have many other desighners and you proboly havnt playe dmost of the square games this gen or even last gen. theyv only localised like 1/4th of their games. pus almost all their games are underrated that arent FF. GO PLAY GRANDIA 3 AND DAWN OF MAN NOW. their relay fun games with good plot that get hate for no realy legitiment reasons

  • Anyone else thinks that Gram Pulse looks like "Jurassic Park"?

  • I like how Final Fantasy characters do not suffer the consequences of terminal valocity.

  • Frocobo FTW :)

  • Lol I am jokin :)

  • I will tell you what awaits you in gran pulse... could It be More long narrow hallways...lol

  • Target time 24 minutes and it only took you 1 minute?! Sure that target was high, but you still made short work of him.

    So is Fang going to get another Eidolon from her other brand? Guess we'll find out later.

    Ludicrous Speed?

    Sand worms, hate em.

  • @redbuck82 Its a key item, that is obtained when each character obtains their Eidolon.

  • I like how Hope all of a sudden goes from being shut in his bathroom listening to linkin park and cutting himself cause of his dead mommy to we can do it guys and everything will be sunshine and rainbows at the end.Talk about a complete 180 of character.

  • I was eating and almost spat my food out at the cry of STEELGUARD!

    Area names aren't spoilers are they? Because I can't wait until you get to the Yaschas Massif, best music ever XD

  • Fang is HOT lol

  • Is it sad that I'm pretty sure the game gave Fang her eidolon so they could have the scene where the ship gets attacked and they all have to escape.

  • How are you not a partner yet your videos are so awesome youtube is mean :(

  • @beemyster599 He is using copyrighted material to make his videos, so Youtube tends to avoid letsplayers for partnership.

  • i like how Sazh says "and this would be"

    and at the same time your like "this is HCBaily and welcome back to Let's play ff13"

    i totally LOL'd

  • The game would have reset your paradigms before the Bahamut fight, even If you had the battle team set up exactly like it was for the fight. So no, you didn't waist our time.

  • 14:10 What the crap is The Halberd doing in Final Fantasy?

  • @redbuck82 its the same thing as an eidolin or summon

  • 1:18 Cascade badge!! Pokemon reference ftw?!

  • if that helps u sleep at nite- hc bailey lolz

  • So now we see Gran Pulse. of course, it was five hundred years since anyone from Cocoon had been there, so the info that it was hell may be outdated.

  • I'll take the zombie apocalypse, thanks :D

  • Anybody else think of Jurassic Park at the end there?

  • "Maybe I'll stop sulking I don't want to end up like Hope."

    Hahaha, perfect

  • Wait, did Hope get his Eidolon yet?

  • @FenrirWeapon No. Soon though.

  • So that is what Zanarkan looked like after all the water evaporated lol

  • I love Fang, Vanile, and Lightning as my party. With the Aurora Scarf and Sprint Shoes on everyone, and in SAB/SAB/RAV. Then, I just use a situational paradigm. I know Vanile's a better saboteur, but I love having about 8 debuffs on an enemy after 1 round. With my tactic, I beat the third to last boss in 1 minute 17 seconds

  • 7:36

    I can hear the knights of ni go "a paath!! a paath!!"

  • @RKae858 wouldn't that be "The Knights of Nih"?

  • @Digiairship Nih or Ni. I always thought is was Ni. Then again, they're now the knights that say icky-icky-icky-icky-ptang-zhoo pang....

  • lol Gran Pulse is NOT a nice place, everything there wants to kill you xD

  • I'm sure someone already pointed it out but Bahamut saving them from falling out of the sky reminds me of Yuna and Valefor.

  • To answer your question about the flying to Pulse: Cocoon is a giant hollow shell, completely sealed off from the outside. The only way in or out is through magic, or blowing the shell up. (Which is exactly what happened years ago in a previous war, and why pieces of Pulse ships are in that junk yard area from earlier in the game: They were used to patch up the shell.)

  • Did Snow just block a Bahamut Hadouken with his arms?!

  • @OuendanCyrus Well, when you use libra on Bahamut, it DOES say he submits to Sentinels.

    So all you have to do is use STEELGUARD.

  • Mushrooms :D

  • You know, I have to wonder why Sazh wasn't the one who got a flying Eidolon, being the pilot and all. Imagine if Ifrit turned into a fighter jet.

  • Hurray for Spaceballs reference!

  • Yeah, the whole "coincidence of being at the place with the fireworks" thing really isn't contrived or anything. It's not like they were all there because they were chosen heroes. Rather, they're chosen heroes because they were there. That's reasonable.

  • ah Serah's theme a times the best song in the game

  • not really insipid perhaps asinine? 

  • hahahaha "you okay?" "oh yeah, I'm great!" lol love the way Hope said that.... he kinda became a pretty good character, eventually lol

  • For a supposed professional pilot, Sazh can't seem to keep an airship in the air for very long without something blowing it up.

  • I think Fang's reason for being emotional is legitimate. She wants to complete her and everyones focus to keep Vanielle from turning Cie'th. She said shed tear the sky open to prevent that from happening. She didnt say it in the cutscene, but I think that was her reasoning.

  • talking about forced eidolon battles, I think it would of been better if Hope got his in chapter 7 instead when he was about to kill snow.

  • @ShadowYoshi64 I thought he was going to in that big area with the huge speech.

  • How could you get forget about Sazh's Eidolon. I'm ashamed...

  • When did Hope get an eidolon? Must have missed that part...

  • @Dialga15132 He doesnt have one at this point ^^;

  • @Dialga15132 yeh he hasn't got an eidolon but, you can get an extra ATB segment by leveling up his crystarium in synergist or ravager I forget which

  • plus fang

  • are light and snow the only ones wit summons?

  • You should really call one of the following episodes, "The Calm Lands," when appropriate ;)

  • How much i like summons in FF series i still do not like the eidolons/transformers of FF13.........and BTW the accent of Vanille is blowing my ears...it's irritanting!!! I'm not native speaker what accent is that???

  • Is it me or the only two who actually fell out of the ship were the ones who could not summon

  • HCBailly, were you referring to this video? watch?v=P7dOOy8kBJY Steelguard!

  • those aussie voices nearlly blowmy brains out

    HC u should make a in the last episode before every clip to remind us what happened like 30 seconds highlights like dragonballz

  • @AsiRed13 i find it funny that their only in the american and possibly european versions

  • bahamut's a pansy in this game compared to others now the next eidolon is my favorite

  • 13:05

    Ludicrous speed, GO! Very nice reference to Spaceballs there.

    I've been off FFXIII ever since I loaned it, I stopped at the Fifth Ark. Looking forward to the rest of the LP!

  • It honestly can't be any worse than everyone happening to be raised at the SAME exact orphanage and all remembering at the SAME exact time. I don't think connection wise you can't get any worse than Final Fantasy VIII.

  • @Caenogenesis

    Well, in THAT game, I suspect the people running the orphanage had a hand in ensuring they all ended up together.

    In THIS game, Fang and Vanille were in Bodhum. The others were simply caught up in the Purge.

  • @mejercit Oh yah I honestly really liked the way they linked everyone together in this one. I was just saying that Final Fantasy VIII was just a tad bit ridiculous and that it couldn't get anymore ridiculous than that.

  • Fang's wasnt forced, it makes some sense. The NEXT one is totally forced.

  • See, I always thought Fang had "Lightning's persona," in that she thought so single-mindedly that Bahamut (somewhat of a guardian angel) had to give her a push in the right direction (Odin did the same thing in a similar scene). So, when she turns on the group, he showed up. And, I always thought Vanille became "serious" because she dropped the "stupid" facade after unveiling she (and Fang) were l'Cie. She was acting for a cover.

  • if hell looked like pulse I'd learn to survive the only problem being that EVERY thing will try to kill you I'm only saying this for those who haven't played this game

  • Is that lightnings belly button showing through the gap in her shirt? I never noticed that until this episode, and it looks pierced aswell, check 4:42

  • y'know, i can see why people complain about the long narrow hallways, but...I got thinking about it, and since when HASNT there been a long narrow hallway, of course, this is excluding the whole "world map", if im incorrect about this, feel free to point it out.

  • thats Bahamut?

    that looks more like Diablos to me.

  • How long before they crack? Sazh:50 Episodes. We'll see how long the others... Wait. Their on Pulse? Never mind.

  • Flora= plant life, fawna= animal life

  • Hope din't get his Eidolin yet Saz did

  • VANILLE MY TRUE LOVE

  • 1) Get Airship

    2) Break Airship

    3) Stuck on Gran Pulse

    4) ???

    5) Profit!

  • Hey look, we JUST happened to find an airship in working condition! Again!

    Derpderpderp.

  • wai just a second. how is fang even at that bar without everyone going crazy and running away. I mean she didnt cover her brand or anything right?
