FFX changed the way i looked at death, which is pretty sad i guess. but the ending was so awesome, it kept in a " :confused:" type mood for a while.

you are cool if you pretend you have a broken arm, only one eye, and an addiction to mysterious drinks.

It reinforced what I allready knew.

A few bullet points-

1) Heroes and Martyrs are different. A martyr is willing to die for a cause; a hero is willing to live for one which is by far the more difficult of the two.

2a) Killing your enemies is a good thing. It keeps them from coming back and screwing with you and your loved ones later.

2b) Make sure after you kill your enemies that they stay dead or they'll keep coming back.

3) That the Truth is, generally speaking, a wholly different thing from "common knowledge." People collect a lot of different facts they "know" are "true" only for the Truth to be completely different.

4) Never doubt that a small, dedicated band of individuals can change the world.

5) Always question. Never take anything at face value. If someone says "The sky is blue" go look, one day you may just be surprised.

That religion is the opiate of the masses.

That the church is keeping important pieces of information from the masses.I also learned that if you have enough faith, you can walk(and dance) on water.

This game taught me alot of things:
-Just because they seem living doesn't mean they are.
-The insides of giant creatures are filled with monsters, pillars, and cities.
-Right between your dad's heart and his right lung is a bad ass sword.
-My final enemy can be as mundane as a symbol.
-It is possible to breath underwater.
-Sacrificing your friends is okay, especially if you summon them.
-A machina-concious nation does not mind an airship in the sky.
-Just because they have long, flowing hair doesn't mean they're as cool as Sephiroth.

I totally changed the way I view the laws of physics. Simply, they don't really exist!

I learned that if you try really hard, you can defy gravity and do some 'impossible' stunts. (Jecht shot anyone? Remember that scene on the boat in the beginning? Yeah. Tidus flew about 20 feet in the air, PAUSED, then started SPINNING, did a FLIP, and kicked a ball. Wow.)

I never realized that people could hold their breath so long (hmm... 20 minutes, no struggling, even under the pressure of an intense swimming sport like blitzball?), and swim so incredibly fast.

Blitzballs are amazing objects. They fly at amazing speeds (even underwater when THROWN!) and almost never miss. They always come right back into your hand when thrown and bounced off something.

note: Pretty graphics, yes, but still far from realistic in any sense.


After FFX, I came to the realization that people don't care when insanely unrealistic concepts are put in games. No matter how rediculous the thought that tidus can swim 50 mph underwater for 20 minutes is, they (and I) don't care, as long as the game is fun. I knew this before, but I thought there would be more complaining, but it turns out no one cares, really.

Heey, Auron is cool.
Besides, the arm isn't broken, he uses it in battle.

But the bottle does intrigue me....

That I will always compare future FF games to it.

(Can everyone please let it go that they can breath underwater, it's a game, did anyone ever complain that the Mario Bros were plumbers saving a princess? Eh NO!)

Well...Now you mention it! ;)


Honestly, all this game taught me is that it took me alot of time to beat.

It taught me that to be sure your enemies are and stay dead you have to go to the bother of cutting there corpse into pieces and carrying the head around with you and even then theres always the risk they'll just posses someone or something else. It also taught me that a simpler storyline and setting can be as interesting as a complex one.

1) Never travel 1000 years to the future.

2) Playing this game for 3 days straight is bad for your health.

3) I now enjoy sleep.

4) Don't trust anyone... They could be a dream.

Technically, the whole 'dream' thing is really sad...

The faith control Tidus' life. He is imaginary. He has no originality or personality... merely... a thought... trapped in oblivion. He is an endless void, a physical hologram.

1) Yevon and friends are scum
2) Auron is a beast
3) Don't let women wear skirts on Mt. Gagazet (she must have been pretty cold)
4) If you meet a monster and he attacks you, he will nicely wait for half an hour while you eat and when you come back, let you hit him back.

The things I learned with Final Fantasy X:

1 - In the reality, there are no happy endings.

2 - Sometimes we have to give of things that we want most, in order to do the right thing. Sacrifice our happiness to help the others.

3 - Love doesn't end with death. As long as we remember of people that we love... then this love remains inside of us.

4 - Even when anything is look like lost, we have to continue fighting, because when we have a will there's a way!

I learned that if you try to jump on a dude that says he can't take you to his hometown and that he's got to go, you're going to hit your head on pavement. Hard.
