How are you always able to say what I want to say.... just better than I ever could?![]()
And thanks for the bit about the ATB, I was pretty sure that they all had it!

I think the game was well made and was, as a whole, a well-done sequel. However, I do not personally like it as much as the first.
I liked the CTB of FFX, simply because I like having my time to plan out my moves. Not realistic, true, but games don't have to imitate life. As well, I didn't feel the grand sweeping lord of the rings grandness that I felt with the first one. It felt a lot lighter in the story department. But that same lightness and open endness was a breath of fresh air from other FFs. But I personally like more linear games.
As well, I thought there were a lot of weird, awkward moments (more so than FFX). Like when they started doing gull wing poses near the end of the game. I felt the jumping ability also didn't add much to the game, and thought the music (while still very good) wasn't quite as good as the first.
All in all, a good game, a good sequel, not one of my favs, but still worth the money I paid for it.
Let me think of something witty...
I realy have never liked the costume changing ffs like 5.
You spend time leveling acharicter type, then a dungeon later you get to start a new one from scratch, waste of time much?

haha... i liked FFVIII, ya big meany.
From what I read from many FF fansite, FFTA seem to be the worst game in the series. This is just my observation about what I read. I may be wrong on this one since I have not played FFTA yet.
I happened to like Final Fantasy VIII very much, and still like 7 and 9. FF X was for me one of the best FF games ( I did not like the way only Yuna could use Aeons though, or the fact that we have yet another different thunder aeon after Ramuh in most of the earlier ones and Quetzecoatl in 8).
I think FFX-2 is ok, but not as good as FF X. Paine is a brilliant addition to the team with her humour and her dark past, but it misses out on something with only having the 3 characters to choose from instead of a party.
The special dressspheres are totally OTT. Talk about one woman army!!
And what did they do to the blitzball? Talk about ruining the best mini-game in the final fantasy series. It is too much like hard work levelling up all the players on your team to still get beaten comprehensively by the Al Bhed Psyches.
I liked the bikanel desert digging game though! That was a good idea!

(Well that blows your credulity. FF's have always had ATBs, just weak ones (and when I say always I mean at least the 6 before FFX, my memory is fuzzy on the ones earlier than that). FFX is the only one to have the CTB. It was good for a game, but I'm glad they undid that.)b) if i want a real time game or pseudo rpg game i,ll go 2 grandia, devil may cry, metal gear solid, legacy of kain etc when u destroy the turn based combat systerm u cease 2 be an ff in my eyes. imho i think zelda is where the realtime rpg should stay.
IT DOESNT REDUCE MY CREDIBILITY ONE BIT! sorry lol. this is a VERY DIFFERENT ATB systerm. everyone attacks at once which is what causes the chaos. this makes it pseudo real time. its very fast.
i love the other atb systerm. everyone takes there turn, there is time 2 think properly instead of button bash 2 victory. i love t5hose systerms. sometimes in ffx-2 i think i,m playing zone of ender or devil may cry.
but anyway, i said it, u said it, i,ll say it again. its opinion. here is my ff ranking list, maybe it reveal why i dont like ffx-2 that much ( note only ff i have played properly r listed, i played them all, but some not enough 2 judge)
8. ff tactics advanced
7.- ff mystic quest
6.- ff x-2
5.- ff viii
4. ff ix
3. ff x
2. ff vi
1. ffvii
Well, you know there is the pause button.. And there is the option to have the battle stop when you are looking through magic/item menus.
Mr Thou! Mr Thou!
Oh, I see what you're saying now. Yeah, that's how previous ATBs have been. I misinterpreted what you said, thinking that you were saying that all FF have had the CTB, nevermind. *refutes previous negative statement, hides under bed*Originally posted by aeris2001x2
everyone takes there turn
On a side note, if you don't like the ATB in FFX-2, you can set it to Wait and Slow, that will slow it down dramatically and give you time to think. In previous FFs I have always set the ATB to Active and Fast to make it go as fast as possible, but I can think on my feet like that. I like the exciting and intense feeling of that, which is why I like FFX-2's ATB, I haven't even set it on fast yet.
yep. my thoughts exactly. ^^I think FFX-2 is ok, but not as good as FF X. Paine is a brilliant addition to the team with her humour and her dark past, but it misses out on something with only having the 3 characters to choose from instead of a party.
