Shame, since it's probably one of the better combat systems in the FF line. Don't worry about forfeiting man points, broskis. It's not as Barbie Dress Up as haters want you to believe.

After thumbing through my FFX-2 guide again I realized where they got the idea for the green thong over yellow panties subligar...

I liked X-2 combat system but not the game overall.

Well, maybe you will like this game then eh?

I thought it was fun. Once you get past the cutesy stuff it's actually a pretty solid game. Lots of depth to combat, replayable multiple times, etc.

X-2? There never was a X-2.
There never was.

I could barely stomach playing X, let alone even consider ever picking up X-2. I would have considered it had they not taken all the good characters aways, of which there were very few anyways, and then tell me combat consists of these three girls changing their outfits. No thanks, I don't give two ***** how fun it is. It's extremely gay.

The game gets raving reviews across the board and goes on to be the most successful Final Fantasy game ever?

Maester Seymour. I found him to be very menacing. FF villains are as powerful as they need to be, so whether he's jumping around chewing the scenery or calmly explaining his insane reason for trying to destroy the world, the danger level is the same. But the person who is evil, but hides in plain sight as a good person is a lot scarier and menacing to me than the guy who makes overt threats and carries a huge gun. The overt guy, you know to avoid, and every one knows that he's a menace, but the genteel guy? No one sees his true evil except for the heroes. Other than Kefka, Seymour is my favorite FF villain. Unless Shantotto counts as a villain.

Damnit, now I have to go play FFX again.

Anyway, I liked all of the heroes. Even Wakka, who seemed like kind of an idiot at first, has such a pure heart that I couldn't help but like him at the end.




The "why" is very important to the story, as well the "what" that Sin symbolizes, both to the characters and the world itself, and to the player. It's the closest thing to high literature I've come across in a FF game. There are lots of very human themes running through the game.



Well I can't disagree with that. For me, the rest of the game had so much good stuff going on that it didn't bother me. I enjoyed flying around in the airship in the other games, but ultimately there were only a few places you could go that actually mattered once you got to end game. Most of it was just the "wheee!" factor of seeing the ground scroll beneath you. I felt like I had a lot more freedom in ways that mattered to me. But like I said, that doesn't make your opinion any less valid.

Someone's insecure.

Not I.

Edit: The reason I didn't play X-2 and the reason I didn't watch Rupaul's Drag Queens is one and the same.

I thought X was a really great game, minus the part about SpoilerTidus being a dream which was just kind of silly.

Shantotto is beyond hero/villian categorization. She is just Shantotto.
