Disc 4... Unecessary?

[leejihoon]

I can understand the point of view of the opening post. I feel that quite a few of the Final Fantasy titles tend to lose a lot of their storyline and gameplay focus at the end, as the only thing that remains for the player to do are several or few sidequests and take on the last boss in a final dungeon sequence; additionally, many of the bosses from Final Fantasy games have little or no connection to the main storyline over the course of a majority of the game. Examples of this type of final boss include: Ultimecia, Necron, and Yu Yevon.

Did you pay much attention to the storyline of FFX? Yu Yevon does have quite a connection, although I agree the battle itself was useless (he hardly ever uses anything but Gravija and, only as a counterattack, Curaga (although if you fight long enough, I've seen him use Ultima as well - but still, auto-life means it can't kill you)). Ultimecia, that's already been justified by someone else. I do agree Necron was really out-of-nowhere though... >_>

ulti was there throughout the whole story
in disguise!!!!

and i think i read on the final fantasy wiki that necron was their earlier too
he originated as the soulcage or somethin
which would be a ff5 reference to as exdeath started out as a tree
or somethin like that
