Notice anything out of the ordinary? No? How about not out of the ordinary? You see, the building behind the spunky shotgun kid is an actual building. A famous actual building. The building behind him is a direct rip off of Saint Mark’s Basilica, one of the most popular cathedrals in Venice.
So what could this mean? Besides the obviously fake characters, royal families and such, could Final Fantasy Versus XIII be set in modern day Venice? What do you think?
