Most Annoying FFX moment

[RedMageKero]

Personally, I thought the Cloister of Trials was an eye twitching, hand clenching, annoying thing to do. Especially the Zanarkand one, I stepped accidently on a wrong one and all of it got screwed up! Stupid tiles....

Auron kind of got on my nerves sometimes, thinking himself so wise and idiotic. I wanted to hurl my shoe at him sometimes. He thinks himself so big.

Some of the side quests were long and hard, but the thing I hated most was the Luca tournament when you had to play, you HAD to play blitzball. Its fun to watch, but stupid to play. ggrrrrr................

Actually, blitzball is kinda fun. I've won 3 tournaments with perfect record. In one of them, Tidus had 54 goals by the end (You play 10 games). Also, I've beaten several tournaments. One of the funnier ones was when the Psyches got kicked out in the first round, or when consolation match was between Fangs and Psyches.

Ok i was fighting Ochu the first time i played ffx, and i was down to just Lulu. i was doing well using fire, but Ochu poisoned me. then, I got lucky and ochu died. Lulu was instantly killed right after ochu died and i got a game over. KILL THE TELEVISION. i also hate blitzball because no matter which move i make i get sacked! DIE TIDUS AND LULU DIE A HORRIBLE DYING DEATH!

let me see the celestial weapons were kinda crappy to earn but I got them otherwise the laughing at luca made me like "oookkaaay I'll just walk out of the room and pretend its not me playing it" but it had to be after going through a vicious training routine to beat pennace and nemesis I killed "the allmighty, all powerful, all seeing god come anew, blah blah blah" whatever else Mika and the other maesters said in two @*^<~#@ hits with my celestial weapons maybe its just me but they shouldn't have included break damage limit for the final battle make it so the ability wouldnt work that or give them a defence of around 500 and a couple of billion hp

I don't understand why people complain about the final boss being easy. "I trained for ages, way above the level your meant to be, and he was easy!!!" Well yes he would be...

Many things annoyed me about X. Yuna being a very large part of this, and amazingly it wasn't her voice that bothered me! Seymour of course was another annoying thing. Then there's the layout of the game, the lack of a world map, the overly llong unskippable cut scenes...

But none of this compares to the true evil of FFX. A thing so truly awful that I think it's possible it was designed as some hideous social experiment. That thing... is the mini games.

Let's look at the evidence, were they really intended to be fun?

Blitzball, argueably the most fun of the bunch, however was this fluke? It was set underwater intentionally, but for some reason it was 2D. You could recruit new players, but due to the setup it was near impossible to improve them because their levels were too low to Techcopy. The games last well over ten minutes, yet you need to complete around fifty to get any decent rewards.

Undecided, let's move on. Chocobos. Now I actually had some fun playing this. Even after being given the ridiculous time required I still thought it would be okay. So what did they do? Throw in birds completely hidden that won't appear until the very last few metres of the race. On that close a timer, they surely didn't expect a random element to be entertaining?

Macalania woods. Even after being told what to do, and doing it, I still haven't got the sigil. How the hell was anyone supposed to get some of this stuff without a guide?

The Cloisters. Hmmm, dull wandering about moving spheres with very little thinking involved. This could almost be just slightly annoying. But no. If you want to get good stuff, you have to do the SAME cloisters several times. Why, why, why?????

Now the lightning bolts. Now it's getting stupid. Do I have to even go into this? Endurance is rarely going to be fun, but endurance that you have to restart for the slightest mistake? That's assuming you knew every detail you had to watch out for to begin with.

The final mini game. This is the biggy. I know you might be thinking, it wasn't that bad. But think about it. They put it right before a long cut scene and the final boss. They knew you'd have to do it several times. So what did they choose to base it on? Bad camera angles. BAD FRICKIN CAMERA ANGLES! Who in their right mind would even consider leaving them in a game, let alone actually basing a game on them.

Do we really think these were designed to entertain? Am I some crazy conspiracy theorist? Are Square secretly running the world and we are just pawns in their evil scheme?
Yuna is to become a lead character. What do you think?

[Yrkoon]

the most annoying bit for me was when i realised i would have to make up a whole set of new armours just to kill penance (just finished making em thank god)

oh and... chocobo racing (took me nearly 8 hours constant)

[Hayato]

Seymour is a fken stalker.

He just can't take a hint, When a girl usually kills you 3 times in a row she means NOOOOOOO you frickin blue headed moron


Jesus, she's 17! And you are what? A 1 million year old freak?


One guy that really can't take a hint

Also that laugh scene in Luca, I destroyed my T.V and sent all the bits around the world.

[Ethéré]

Everytime Tidus would say "Listen to my story...." Whine whine. Rrrhaa. And they made Yuna seem mindless. Or maybe personality-less. Or maybe brain damaged. But Auron, ah, well, he makes up for it. *Sniff* Oh yeah, Bliztball, well throw me a friggin card game here

[Shlup]

I used a walkthrough for every single cloister of trials. Didn't even want to deal with it.

[Rinna Lee]

Okay...here's my list:

1. Yuna's voice

2. Yu Yevon boss

3. Tidus saying, "This is my story."

4. The Thunder Plains

5. Lulu's ultimate weapon

I have a lot more...want me to go on???

what was the japanese ending?

[Phoenix729]

I'm gonna have to say, in all honesty that i enjoyed very little of the game. the only good thing i look forward to in ffx is blitzball. and that gets kinda dull after too many games. Heres some examples of the troute:

laughing scene
any part where tidus is speaking
"yuuuuunnnniiiiiii"
every linear, walk from A to B point of the game (macalania woods, moon flow, besaid, calm lands thunder plains, just about everywhere else, etc., etc.)
yunas attitude (or lack of)
kimaris overall uselessness (smacks of freya)

FFxi was far superior to this

I'm assuming you mean FFIX, not the game that isn't out yet. In which case...

I'm sorry, i'll give you every point that you made EXCEPT this one. While this game had a tendency to piss me off, i at least had some motivation to finish it. I'm at the cleanup part of the game in FFIX, and i really don't care what happens. I've had it at that point for about a year.

Doesn't look like i'm gonna beat it.

So hey, yeah, it's no FFVII. But neither is it IX. Somewhere in between.

I agree- some of the most beautiful graphics in the game, but horribly, HORRIBLY cheesy, with them drifting about in the water... ugh.

[KiDD]

oh GOD i hated that kissing in the water....god damn.... I change channels whenever I'm at that part. I think it's the crappiest love story so far in the FF series.Wait, nvm Lulu and Wakka is.
