I'm going to give my save fiile, where I'm at chapter 9, that's where the game crashes, that will help us to check that when it's fixed, confirm us.
The game serial is MRTC00003 MRTC00003-00 (Final Fantasy 13) (mediafire.com)
Status: I can now officially confirm, FF13 is now playable!
The screenshots may confuse you, but I started this on my older PC around 2023, where before Tier B CPUs were considered for playable category reports, but that was changed, on my old i7 8700 CPU, the game ran stable at 30 FPS without sudden drops, all until chapter 9 where it crashes, but after a long time, that was fixed and I could continue with the rest on my new PC, very stable, you can even pause the game for a while and it won't freeze, I played it between 7 and 11 hours, you can play it at 60 FPS if you use the Vblank Frequency at 120hz in Advanced tab of the settings, it only has a couple of small graphic errors in some elements, but nothing affects the experience, it is easy to ignore.
