      I'm pretty sure they have to join Youth League if they want to attempt 100%. I believe in the first playthrough, it's only possible to get 99% if you join New Yevon.

      Yeah this is true, and going from the assumption that this was a deliberate design choice it's one of my biggest gripes with the game. Both factions are pretty awful but I'd pick New Yevon over the Youth League any day if it weren't for this little difference.

      Clever strategy to not respond so you don't have to consider my wonderful dressphere choices, but by default I'll just say Yuna as Songstress, Rikku as Black Mage, Paine as Warrior. Although I'm still all for replacing Paine with Brother for one episode.

      I didn't respond because I don't know where we're going next! xD

      Who knows where we're going to show up next!? Who can tell!? I mean who knows when we'll get the next episode up!? ...Oh. Now I guess


      Let's Play Final Fantasy X-2 HD Remaster #6 - Luca Dat Moogle

      This week we have a quick stop to the land of the Gorgons which is now a bustling den of diversity and not Gorgons at all and establish the logistics of parking an airship in a cave.

      Shortly afterwards we head to Luca and try on silly clothes and have ~FLASHBACKS~. How exiting.

      The Gullwings' prized garment... also known as the most stupidly powerful dressphere in the game. Goddamnit Brother just GIVE it to them already.

      There's a hidden Garment Grid in the Luca docks if you feel like going back for it. IIRC it's the thunder-elemental one.

      Haven't got much else to say since the CH1 Luca mission is pretty much the most boring and uneventful mission in the entire game. Oh, it may be useful to note that you can check your percentage while choosing a destination from the airship. You know the big bright red text on the right.

      I know flim-flam has always been a thing, it's just not been truly hilarious in my mind until I saw the troll face image.


      Brother will be the fourth White Mage.
      He looks more like a White Supremacist.

      I vote yes for Real Emotion being great.


      Yes, I am this far behind.

      The Luca pun was Grade A. Yes, I am excited for the backstory thanks Shauna!

      Oh I do enjoy Yuna's X-2 theme.

      Why did that kid say "Argh don't eat me!" to a moogle? Do they... what...? Nooooo.... SURELY NOT

      wtf is that purple beak kid doing WTF shauna answer this please

      Karifean: Ah neat, we may head back and get that. Also you keep us right on how to play this game properly. I guess we just flat out ignored all that percentage thing in the World Map menu.

      Psy: I really enjoy a lot of the soundtrack, and when I watched the episode back I was sad once again that we missed out on the classic Yuna's theme. Our snazzy new microphone picks up the TV even on the lowest volume setting.

      And I don't know what the kid was doing. I DON'T KNOW.

      OH GOD OH MAN OH GOD OH MAN

      Things do not go well in this episode. We have to interact with Kimahri, Tromell Guado and speak to some heathen Al Bhed who have dared to commandeer a sacred temple of Yevon! All in one episode?! On top of that battling goes poorly, and I mean really really poorly. Damn you, oversouls!

      Can nothing save us from our own incompetence (aside from our loyal viewers)?

      There we go.

      As soon as I saw Thunder hitting you for 100 damage I knew how that was going to end xD

      See this is where your whole pick-dresspheres-the-viewers-voted-for system comes right back to bite you since switching dresspheres is pretty damn useful sometimes. Like when you have to fight elementals and you don't have any magic to deal with them. Maybe consider adding a clause for this kind of situation?

      Oversoul goes by species. You'll keep encountering oversouled elementals until you kill one. That one fight where the Red Elemental was the one that oversouled might've been a good opportunity for that, actually.

      Sure, let's forget that the White Mage has Vigor for instant self-healing. Would've saved you a lot of trouble^^ Learning Reflect might be a good idea too.

      Oh and of course simply equipping the Thunder Spawn GG would've trivialized everything. I seriously recommend making use of those elemental GGs (and being flexible in switching it up depending on the circumstances).

      Goddamnit Flee, why must you be so terrible. Escape is always the safer alternative since it's instant. I guess it's good if your other characters are charging up something big when you decide to flee, but let's be real, how often are you gonna encounter that situation.

      In all fairness, you had a pretty terrible dressphere setup for this particular mission. Two physical attackers with horrible magic defense and a White Mage. Ironically the Songstress probably would've gotten you through the troubles just fine. Matador's Song + Samba of Silence ftw.

      Well, good luck on the return trip. Hope you don't run into any Amorphous Gels! ...you probably will though, since that crystal path is murderous sometimes. Good luck with that.

      And now for the next episode of Lets play FFX-2 HD Remastered (No Gunners Edition)!




      Let's Play Final Fantasy X-2 HD Remaster #8 - Can we dig it?

      The answer is no, but we try our best anyway. In the last episode we ran screaming in terror from the enemies of the Macalania Woods. This time we take things a bit easier by getting lost in the desert during a sandstorm. What's the worst that could happen? It can't be worse than El Nino~

    1. Karifean's Avatar
      Karifean -
      Yay, things went well! Macalania is easily the toughest area in Chapter 1, so now everything should be easy, right?

      As for dresspheres for next time, I'll nominate Songstress Yuna, Gunner Rikku and Black Mage Paine. If you do something else post Moonflow mission, I'd like it if you switched someone to Gun Mage too~

      Everything should be great from now on, no more problems.

      We should start a betting pool - how long are we actually going to keep up with this "Viewers Vote" thing? I predict that we will stop in Chapter 2.

      Hellooooo Shauna, what's going on todaaaaaaaaaaay? Matt's silky smooth voice. True story coming up, in Tesco the other day after having just watched the other video some little girl goes "Mummy, do we need fishfingers?" and I guess she said "Yes" or whatever but for some reason I heard Matt's voice in my head saying "Yes Shauna, we all need fishfingers". I think that's the early onset of psychosis. With that said, if you could somehow work that line into an upcoming episode I'd be grateful.

      Too much Ye-ing from O'aka. Stop it, you're taking the piss now.

      GET OUT OF THE WAY YUNA I NEED TO BASH RIKKU gg monster gg

      Sweetcakes Yuna is her new name.

      Yuffie is okay at stealing now, she got a bit better. A bit.

      everyone gunner god damn it

      Fish fingers are okay but they are low down on my list of wants. Mini Kievs are better
