Cause FFX is amazing?
They're updating two PS2 games to HD graphics in one of the most extensive updates I've ever seen, for the cost of less than one game. They're releasing the international versions with content never before seen in NA. And they're including a new half-hour audio drama. This is a quality product. Stop whining about your unrealistic wish not being granted.
I don't even have an issue with the voice acting esp. considering it was the first FF game with it in there.

Ooh, HD flesh.
"Teedus" is certainly better than "him" and "you know who"
We all hope to god this drama thing doesn't suck.
I'm just thankful his name isn't spelt or pronounced as Titus. We wouldn't want that, now would we..?

Awesome picture courtesy of Lockharted. Thank you!
I think the reason why people get up in arms about it is because those of us that pronounced it 'Tydus' (me included) are a bit shocked and in disbelief when we find out we have been pronouncing it wrong for over ten years. But, if they just used his name from the beginning in the game, it wouldn't be an issue: we would have thought "oh ok, it's pronounced 'Tee-dus.' Anyway, moving on...." I'd say it's more startling than anything else.
That said, I do like the reasoning of 'person #1' in your post.

I always assumed it was "ee" simply because that's how one pronounces "i" in Japan.
Are you smurfing kidding me? Tee-doos? That's smurfing stupid. It's Tidus, TYDUS, not tee-doos. That doesn't even make sense.
You don't pronounce Tiny as Tee-ny. Or Tide as te-ed. Or Tiger as Te-ger.

Actually, had they pronounced it from the start, it would have upset me far more than the current pronunciation debate.
His name isn't "Tidus", it's whatever the heck I make it. What should I care how the default name is pronounced when I never leave names default?
As for Tidus, most people simply pronounced it in the way that is correct, phonetically, for the spelling in their region. And, for a lot of people, that isn't Tee-dus. If the designers want things pronounced a certain way, they either need a pronunciation guide somewhere (in the instruction manual, maybe), or they need to spell things the way they sound.
