We all know there are going to be chocobos in Final Fantasy XIII. TWO kinds of chocobos! Smaller, tames chocobos in cocoon, and wild huge ass chocobos on Pulse! But what about the moogles? Are they absent from this game? And if they aren't? please don't be mutant rabbit moogles like in FF12. :confused:
 
As far as I know, there has been no word on Moogles in FFXIII. I haven't seen a scan or image that shows a Moogle. Whether or not they are in the game is still unclear to me.

I hope there are Moogles. FFX only had a Moogle as a weapon for Lulu, so that was a letdown for me. I too would like to see the cat-like Moogles return.
 
D'awww. I want moogles in FFXIII.

I actually quite liked FFXII's race of moogles. I never noticed FFX's lack of them, though. Strange that I didn't.

Anyway, I have yet to see scans or screenshots of any type of moogle for FFXIII. Although I've done some searching, nothing has come up except Agito's moogle concept. You can see it talked about here, and the actual artwork for Agito is here.

Although many fans speculated that the moogle in the artwork display was a thirteenth member, Square Enix denied this claim, and now it looks to be a weapon, similar to Lulu's dolls in Final Fantasy X. It is speculated that the moogle is controlled by the girl with the flute, who possibly controls things through music.

I liked the moogles from 12. They werent the traditional ones I know, but they were still cute. It was bit meh Lulu used a moogle as a weapon in 10. Its like SE are getting rid of anything cute from the series. If chocobos go, Im not playing them no more!! Yellow birds are where its at!!
 
Moogles are deff something I would like to see more of. How many FFs are they actually in anyways? I too, haven't heard anything about moogles being in XIII but I'd love to see them and i'll be sad if they aren't in the game. : ( using a moogle as a weapon IMO was kind of lame =/ I'd like to see them serve a purpose though like in XII were you can buy maps etc from them.
 
I assume that this game will have them implemented in some way. They have been in every game after 2 in some form or another. They may appear as a toy or something, to give the game the feel of FFVII. The chocobos already do that, but I want to see moogles in FFXIII if it can be done.
 
The moogles were a huge part of IX. they taught lesson, were used for saving your game and became part of the story later on. I too will probably stop playing Final Fantasy if they ever leave out chocobos.
 
More than likely they will never get rid of Chocobos. They are a way of transportation in FF games and are a big "Mascot" for them as well. So, I am sure those are quite safe.

As far as moogles go, I've only seen them in FIX and FFXII (FFX with Lulu's doll). =/. I actually thought they were cute in FFXII, they had alot of smarts and didn't only say 'kupo!?' haha. So, I liked the one's in XII.
 
I am a huge Moogle advocate, I even started the Moogle Fan Club at my school.

But i digress, the moogles in twelve were amazing, even if they were not the traditional moogles we all know and love.

There better be moogles in 13 or Wayne Brady is gonna hafta choke a bitch.
 
Hm. Seeing how the Moogle is already pretty much an icon of the Final Fantasy series as well, I would think there should be Moogles in the series, just that we have not seen it in any screenshots. If they have the Chocobo, Crystals and Cactuar, they should have the Moogle as well!

No stereotyping the initials C!
 
I don't doubt there will be moogles otherwise it probably would have been mentioned on 2ch moaning about no moogles makes it a bad game (such as them moaning about no towns as well). All being said, I wouldn't be bothered, they're more of a trademark than anything. :hmmm:
 
I love moogles, they have to be in the game in some form, but yeah I haven't heard anything about moogles being in the game myself. I'm guessing if they are in the game they're probably going to be some kind of weapon or mascot, like in FFX -_-
 
Yeah, the moogles in XII were so AWESOME! Actually, Final Fantasy XII was the first game I thoroughly played, so I never really realized that moogles were originally not as intelligent as displayed in XII! Ha ha. But YES, XIII NEEEEDS MOOGLES! But from the trailers I've seen and everything, Chocobos or Moogles don't seem to be very prevolent...? Moogles'll be awesome forever no matter what their fate turns out to be though. lol
 
Something that Kitase himself stated:

Which are your favourite, Chocobos or Moggles?

YK: [Laughs] I prefer Chocobos, definitely. In Final Fantasy XIII you will be encountering baby Chocobos, Cocoon Chocobos and grandpa Chocobos. As for Moggles, they will just be making a cameo appearance in this particular title.
 
I'm kind of gutted that Moogles won't be making a big appearance too but in the dark setting that the game seemingly will have I'm not surprised that they won't have a ton of these cute furry creatures running around. Usually I'd find this kind of thing pretty annoying but in truth I'm actually looking forward to seeing them different with the game since there is apparently no shortage of nods to old FF games in there.

I wonder what this means for moogles...

Might it be something like the moogle doll in FFVII:Advent Children? Or perhaps like FFVII, FFVIII and FFX where they were only referenced by being mentioned, in mini games, as summons or as dolls / weapons?

Though I doubt they'll be summons in this game, as we'd likely have heard about them already.

It's a shame that moogles aren't going to be in the game much. It would have been ace if moogles inhabited Pulse, living in forests, either flying or swinging from tree to tree. They could have made them wilder than moogles we're used to, but still hold the characteristics we associate with moogles.

Well, I guess chocobos are more useful as you can use them as transportation and possibly food. :wacky:

I am kind of sad that moogles won't be making a large appearance though. Moogles are without a doubt my favorite FF creature. They're so cute and cuddly. The ones in IX and XII had a lot of personality as well. Ah well, I'll get over it. xDD
 
Moogles are only making a "cameo" appearance in the game. They will be a picture of them in the background of the "moogle shop." That's it. :(
