What's wrong with the human body? Square and 'sluttiness'

[Kindo]

Does anyone know if FFX-2 will even have a world map, or will it be "go to the red dot" again

I'm not sure, but you'll have the airship right from the start, so I'm not sure if it'll have any sense of freedom. You're on a Sphere Hunter group, and you're competing against that other group with that slutty leader, and you're doing so by going around doing missions in various places. Yum yum...

Does the other group's leader have an outfit just about as revealing as Edea's? Or Beatrix's? Damn those sluts[/sarcasm]

But if you're saying that you hate them because the way they look like than you're being... uh... Stupid.

Can you get your point across without insulting people? Just because I don't think like you doesn't mean I'm being stupid. I've played FFX, and I don't like it. My secondary dislike with the game is the characters. Ok?

He wasn't calling you stupid for disliking the game he said that hating a game because of a character's look is stupid.
Now that's obviously flamey, but as far as they go it's a pretty sensible one.

The characters did suck in X, but it had nothing to do with their appearance.

You misunderstood me, man... I'm not saying YOU are stupid... Maybe the way I said it was wrong...

I wanted to say that not like the way a character looks like is a stupid reason reason to hate the character. It's far from saying that someone is stupid for thinking that way...

BTW, For everything I heard about FFX, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't like it too... I just think I would have stronger reasons than mere looks. But still, I have to play it before judging it.

Definately. If the game itself was good, I'd care less about how the characters look. But FFX is already a bad game (imo), and I don't see a point behind raising the sex appeal of the characters. If FFX-2 turns out to be a much better game than FFX (which I doubt because it seems to be going along of same lines) then it'll be fine. It just seems like everything is selling out to imagery these days.

Isnt that rather contradictory?

[i90east]

I thought FFX's characters were pretty lame. If those same characters with the same personalities exist in FFX-2, then yes that would tarnish the game in my opinion.

[PhoenixAsh]

X-2 looks nothing like X from what I've seen. There's only two from the original cast in your party that I know of. They picked two of the worst characters but that's not the issue.

The only thing weird about the clothes is the fact that it's Yuna. I know she needs a diguise, but it just doesn't fit her personality. Rikku: it fits how she was in the game. Of course, maybe she had something to do with Yuna's attire. I'd assume they'd hang out, like real cousins would, and Rikku' personality might have rubbed off on Yuna a bit. And Rikku might of helped pick out the outfit. Who freaking knows. The fact is, that's the way things are gonna be, it's too late to change it.
As for the qoute unquote sluttiness, right on. The fact of life is, sluttiness exists. It makes the game realistic. Some people are just slutty. It's a fact of life. That and it probably boosts sales a little. Muahahaha...

Well, it seems to me that Yuna has taken in her Al-bhed heritage and she dresses like her tribe. She's not a holy summoner anymore so we don't really know what her true personality is like. I am sure that just because she wears some more comfortable clothes to fight in doesn't mean she sleeps with whatever walks on two legs.

What I want to know is how that one strand of hair got so long in the spand of two years >.<

here is the lady luck job class !

I dont get whats the big deal. I have friends thats Gothic and some dress slutty looking and I dont look at them and say "yup a slut" and walk away like a snob. People looks at people the way they dress nots whats in their hearts. A slut can be a slut but what is underneath is whats mostly important. I like the outfits on FF series. I would wear them to. If you think that I am a slut cause of what I said.....then your not looking what inside my heart.

[i90east]

It's not a matter of being a slut, but looking like one.

[Angel_Reaper]

You mean if I go out in a skimpy black spand x. Going out on the town. Just having fun with my friends is concider me a slut, Cause I LOOK like one? o_O Even though I am not. Considering I am been with only one guy. What a sad world we live in.

I thought the point people were making throughout this whole thread is that the way characters look should be one of the least important factors in deciding whether or not a game is good. >_>

I agree with pretty much everything Rand and Abominatrix have been saying.
