I also have to agree. The disturbing thing about FFX, was that the parts of the game that had been recycled from prior FFs, worked far better than the innovations did.

Example: the voice acting. I found out after watching the infamous laughing scene in Luca, that, sometimes, it was far better to imagine what a character sounds like, instead of actually having to listen.

It also was far too linear, quickly degenerating into a - travel down path fighting enemies as you go/fend off Seymour/enter Cloister of Trials/obtain aeon/continue to Zanarkand - cycle.

For me, the game went downhill from the moment they first killed off Seymour. And yes, I'm one of those rare people that did like Seymour. He was twisted, disturbed and wanted to kill Yuna - thus my clear favourite.
