I don't think too many people dislike X, but there are aspects that are unpopular and as is the way of gamers, those aspects get ragged on a lot.
It's cool to hate FFVIII, and if you're a big fan of VI it's cool to hate everything since except IX.

I don't hate X. It's not one of my favorites, but still, I like it. But a good friend of mine who I know in real life, totally despises X. Always ripping on it whenever X comes into the conversation. He still owns the game, but he just never bothered to complete it.
People don't think it's cool to hate FFX. A lot of people like it, and those that don't like it dislike it because of personal reasons. If anything, I believe that some people think its cool to hate VIII and love VII.
Actually, isn't FFX one of the most popular and well-liked in the series?
Yeah I'm pretty sure it's one of the more positively regarded. I saw more than one place talking about XIII in terms of "Is it as good as X?"Quote:

Maybe they are just complaining, but not specifically hating it. I mean, I could complain about something in every game. And even though I don't really like Tidus, I did like X.
I actually think a lot of people hate X, though. Mostly for Tidus, because he's so whiny, and for the linearity of it. But I really like it, so. I guess it depends on what kind of game format you like.
I love FFX, but i hate Tidus and i hate Blitzball.Quote:

Every Final Fantasy has their haters, except maybe FFVI. I don't think FFX has any more haters than say FF2, 7, 8, 9 or 12.
Haters gonna hate! Just let 'em do that and enjoy FFX in all its glory.
X and IV are always duking it out to reign as my favorite in the series.
Exactly! That's what's really, really annoying me about all the XIII talk at the moment. I like the game, doesn't mean I can't recognise it's flaws (Although I don't think it has many) there are all these haters wont even recognise there are good parts! Say you bring up the graphics, something I didn't think you could ignore, they just spout on how you can't base a game off graphics alone, no you can't, but you can still recognise they're awesome!Quote:

I see the game as an experiment. An experiment to see if gamers would welcome the "One long corridor, no exploration" movement with a naff love song by a pop singer, following on from FF8 which only really did the latter. The gamers did take to it, and now we have FFXIII and RIONA RUISU HIGHRY UNDERSPATED ALBAM.
At least the unskippable, horribly-acted cutscenes didn't catch on though. Anyone who remembers a thread I did about three years ago will know how I felt about those.
