    Yeah but at least FFX was a little more open up and it had a little more space and you could backtrack. FF XIII just gives you Grand Pulse and that's it. Tough Moogles if you don't like it.

    Also the battle system is zillion times better and is more fun and you have the ability to control all characters.

    Also, this.
    Not exactly a good thing.

    The sphere grid remains one of the most customizable ways to level up your characters. While saying "it's my favorite" isn't an objective statement, saying "it rivals the license board in terms of customization" is.
    The license board sucked, and I found the Sphere grid far more interesting.

    But I only find the sphere grid interesting for customizing and increasing stats, for abilities, I far prefer either VII's Materia system or the Job system in any of its incarnations.

    Blitzball, once you were comfortable with it, was a hell of a fun minigame. Okay, sorry, fun isn't objective. Um... user-friendly? Addictive? I think I had one file with 60 hours of blitzball in it...
    This is more a question of scope than quality, I think. I'm not denying that Blitzball is a fun game, I really like it (and, yeah, got tons of rewards with it). But it's more the depth of rewards and customization that keep me playing it than simply the gameplay. If any of the minigames in FFVII (say, snowboarding or sub attack) had that level of depth and customization, I'd probably have played them to death too. Heck, I did play the Fort Condor game at every availible opportunity, and would love to see that one fleshed out a bit more (and made repeatable indefinitely).

    Also, I think the Techcopy system is extremely flawed and needs to be revamped.

    Unique ultimate weapon "quests" for each character. (even if some were stupidly more rage-inducing than others)
    Excellent idea, generally poor execution. While some were rage inducing, they were all missed potential. Yuna's was really the only one with any connection to her character. I'd have broken things down so that in addition to each random chest or minigame reward, they'd have a character-related sidequest. Flesh out the characters and world a bit more. It'd also let you flesh out the backstories some. Kind of like the Jecht Spheres.

    My friend Delzethin is currently running a GoFundMe account to pay for some extended medical troubles he's had. He's had chronic issues and lifetime troubles that have really crippled his career opportunities, and he's trying to get enough funding to get back to a stable medical situation. If you like his content, please support his GoFundMe, or even just contribute to his Patreon.

    He can really use a hand with this, and any support you can offer is appreciated.

    Yeah, I've never understood all of the voice acting hate. (Although there are definitely some iffy times, I'd never call it BAD. It just has off moments).

    Also, I read someone say it here before, and I think it's pretty too: the Sphere Grid gives the illusion of customization, when really you're just following one path. I suppose that's true. I guess the customization factor comes in on choosing to send people down different paths than their default path.

    The "Standard" Sphere Grid is basically the Crystarium system in that's it's one path, with the odd branch here and there. However, the "Expert" Sphere Grid is a lot more loose and you can choose which characters learn what, to an extent.

    IIRC, the NA version of FFX did not have the Expert Sphere Grid.

    Well, you guys'll get it this year

    I like the Sphere Grid regardless because I love activating a node and then actually noticing the difference in battle. I always get that Strength Sphere by winning the Luca Blitzball Tournament because of that - you can just SEE that it increases your damage by a lot.

    I wish they had a lot of the gameplay elements from X-2 with the story of X (with a bit more Kimahri). That would be an excellent game.

    On the one hand, Final Fantasy X has decent graphics, a beautiful world and a good battle system.

    On the other hand, it has Tidus, Yuna and Seymour. It also had the voice acting of Tidus, Yuna and Seymour. That's not to mention Tidus, Yuna and Seymour. The only good thing about Tidus is that he thankfully isn't real. The only good thing about Yuna is that she isn't as bad as Tidus. The only good thing about Seymour is how his name reminds me of the way Seymour Skinners' mum says his name.

    I mean... someone could create this beautiful matchstick house, the most beautiful matchstick house that was ever created, and then take a giant violent diarrhoea dump all over it. No matter how beautiful it was, it'll break down and smell like trout. This is how I view Final Fantasy X. I really, really, really wish there was an option to turn off those three characters so I could actually enjoy the game.

    My objective viewpoint is superior to MILF's objective viewpoint because I've actually played all the Final Fantasy games. I know, I know, some people might say I'm biased and subjective and not objective in this post, but I objectively checked it over and decided objectively using my objective opinion that my objective viewpoint is spot on, objectively.
    Bow before the mighty Javoo!
