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.
Yeah, I also liked Seymour but SquareSoft totally ruined his character by killing him off after your first battle with him, after that Seymor just wasn't the same character demented, evil, sinister, misunderstood character that he used to be.
I'd also have to agree on Lulu not having a big part after half of the game, which really sucked for me, because Lulu was one of the best characters in the game (my opinion).
I thought Blitzball was the most idiotic game the FF series has ever thought of. And was it just me or was the Cloister of Trials too easy, espically at Zanarkand. Where they just running out of ideas???
The thing that was most annoying for me however, where those voiceovers! I can't stand Yuna talking with her broken up sentences...*sigh*. Anyway...I downloaded the ending in japanese and I HAVE to say that they had better choices for their voiceovers. It just made more sense to me...so...there's my two cents...sorry didn't mean to ramble...
