Pure Poetry

[Anno Domini]

i cannot express my love for ffx. i thought that the storyline was pure, evolving, living, breating, poetry. the tragedy of true love threatened by mortality. pressing onward to kill yourself in the name of people who hate and fear you. Uh! i love it!

did anyone else feel this way? why or why not?

[Fantasy_Dragon]

I did. It's because of just what you said. It's just an amazing story with awesome graphics, gameplay, and sound design. Everything just fits and it's amazing.

I agree. For a long LONG time I was a Final Fantasy 7 fanboy. But then, back near the end of 2002, I picked up X. I never looked back. Final Fantasy X is like playing the best video game, reading the best book, and watching the best movie all rolled into one. It's fun to play, and actually touches deep on your emotions. So far no other RPG has done this for me, on such a level as FFX.

Agreed, obviously. Im starting to wonder why there are people who dont like x

There are so many moments that I just love about this game.
One of the biggest problems with it IMO though is that the journey never seems to get bigger. In the beginning you are fighting sin
In the end you are fighting sin. So it never seemed to gradally ramp up in importantness.

I agree with all above: Pure poetry

Its a personal thing. It touches you personally. Its not capable of touching everyone in the same way. Different people have different preferences. Therefor different requirements to get the same feeling of being touched deep down. Just doesn't do it for them the same. Unfortunately I'm one of them. I've played through the game 3 times and never beat it. I wish I could feel that way about it. But I have my own games that do that to me (hearts to Xenogears)

I found the game fun to play, and it told its story well enough, but I never cared much for any of the characters and didn't think much of the plot. It was all right. A step down from FFIX from an artistic standpoint, and a step up technically.

Ha! Renmiri is on my side! Na na na na boo boo!

[Roto13]

It would be a great story if so many of the characters didn't suck so much.

[Tabris]

I agree. This is still the best videogame I've ever played. I felt like I was watching a wonderful movie that I was lucky enough to participate in.

[Simen]

Oh yes. Final Fantasy X is the best! Love everything about it. Great story, music and gameplay! My favorite game. No doubt! I'm gonna start to play it again soon I think :D

From a storyline standpoint, I think that the game performed adequately. From a gameplay standpoint, I think that the game might have left some things to be desired — mainly because I enjoyed the gameplay from its sequal more, and I feel that the sequel is a subpar game —

I don't know about poetry, but it was a very good game with a cool storyline with a nice twist and some interesting characters. It's certainly miles above the travesty of FF12 that's for damn sure.

I agree. Some of the dialogue is pure poetry. Then add music and graphics and you have something beautiful. The Macalania Woods scene comes to mind but there's plenty of others.
