    Fayth: Let's try to pull a guy out of our dreams and have him Fight Sin!

    Few month later...

    Fayth: Well trout, he just became Sin anyway.

    Auron: Let's try that plan again with Jechts less able son!

    ....Okay?

    Vaan is a non-entity and has a weird design but his personality is far from unpleasant and his voice actor is excellent.

    I think I wanted to know more about Tidus' mom. Not to the level of Jevht but if we saw how her relationship with her husband and son was like we could potentially be more invested in their relationship. Also, the time in Zanarkand could have been a couple of hours longer so we can feel with Tidys as it falls and understand the cultural differences a bit more.

    Let's not forget the most cringe-worthy scene imaginable.

    But I'll end the similarities here, lest I derail the thread with more examples.

    I also think this fight was a big pile of trout, but I love the fact that Sin was finally destroyed.
    Although you have a great idea for a sequel, because the storyline of FFX-2 had a great potential (thanks to Tidus, surprisingly), but it was unfortunately wasted.

    Agree.
    There's the short haired NPC who wears nothing but a bra, long sleeves, and a loin cloth.

    I hated most of the points that have been raised, but the absolute weakest point IMHO is.......the Sin is Jecht thing.

    I'm pretty sure Jecht ending up in Spira is a mistake.

    Basically ! I wonder if Tidus had failed, they would've just kept on dropping a random stranger/s from Zanarkand till Sin is gone lol.

    I don't mind fighting Yu Yevon so much, but I hate that you're given auto-life. It takes any kind of urgency away from the fight.
    Yeah, auto-life was a bit of a strange edition to that fight.
    It's not supposed to be urgent. It's not really a boss, just storytelling through battle mechanics.
    everything is wrapped in gray
    i'm focusing on your image
    can you hear me in the void?
