I remember starting a similar thread a month or so ago and came to the conclusion that Final Fantasy XIII and X aren't as similar as people were trying to make me believe, they are two different games and just because you liked or disliked one doesn't mean you have to feel the same the way about the other.

They have some similarities but for the reasons many people gave I never quite noticed the linearity of Final Fantasy X as much as I did XIII, I suppose another part of that is the areas were linked together in order to link one world instead of being separate random areas. I know a lot of people think the complete opposite of this but I also enjoyed X's story more and got into it a lot more than I did XIII, the characters were more likable, the gameplay/battle system was better and even though it wasn't the strongest in the series the music was better than XIII too.


Each to their own I suppose.
