Help FFXIII: Anything we should know?

[Sora_lion_heart]

So as we've grown to know, Square likes to put in hard to get items in their games now. I'm just curious as if they put something in this game that is hard to know without a guide or near impossible to know without a guide. So yeah thanks in advance.

I can see them doing something similar to the Zodiac Spear again. So far I haven't heard anything until the game and the guide come out and clarify it. It shouldn't be long because the game and guide come out tomorrow.

The Zodiac Spear was just stupid though. There was no way anyone could possibly figure that one out without a walkthrough. Squeenix would be stupid to do that, which they will probably do anyway.

What I'm probably going to end up doing is doing one run through the story, and then a second one for items/accessories/side-quests, etc. Hopefully by the time I get to my second playthrough there will be some sort of guide to some of the harder to get items on the internet, cause hell knows I'm not paying for a guide.

Its some of the Cie'th marks on disc 3, they are stupidly hard to kill and have some rare items for upgrading and weapons and such

I've heard a trophy is missable, but it's a case of beating the final bosses all with a five star ranking. But essentially it can be redone if you just restart when you don't get a 5 star.

Nothing in this game is missable. There is a nice and easy way of doing absolutely everything.

Although yes, some of the Cie'th stone marks (#35 onwards) do begin to get a little difficult.

And one trophy requires you to kill the hardest enemy in the game, so... It's all good fun. But, once again absolutely nothing in this game is missable.

Good so I can play the game without a guide and not miss out on the most powerful stuff later on. If I do I don't mind using a guide on the second run through its just in FFXII I wish I used the guide all the way.
