Hmm, wonder if they will do the typical \"here\'s a few potions to start you out\" thing, of maybe actually have something cool like alternate costumes. Since that wouldn\'t effect gameplay. Hope to hear more on this.

I think that you are going to keep the Stats and Weapons for Lightning if you have your save files.

We already saw that she seems as strong as she was in the end of the first game. My guess is that, if you have no save file, she will have pre-determined stats and weapons, but if you have your save file, she will have the stats and weapons she had in your previous game.

Maybe weapons transferred from the first game?

I figured against stat/weapon transfers because it would be a lot to code when it\'s slated to not \"make such a huge difference on the game, it\'ll just be convenient to have.\"

I love bonuses for having a save file from a prior game.

Too bad having a FFXIII save file won't equate to having more powerful characters at the start of FFXIII-2. That'd be great, haha.
