is this the worst final fantasy game?

FFX-2 crap?!?!?! Doubt that!

I have played FF6 up to FFX-2. All of them are good. I'm not joking.

[CactuarKing]

I believe you!

[Penance99999]

I'm not joking.

[CactuarKing]

I said I believe you! FF6-FFx-2 myself and they are all good!

[Penance99999]

Cool. I hate when people bitch about this and that FF being crap. It's all their opinions. In reality, none are actually crap.

Thats not my opinion btw, its a fact

[CactuarKing]

Yeah! What's with that?

[Penance99999]

I don't know. They might not like particular aspects of the game.

Like the music might irritate them. No world map. etc etc. They blow things out of proportion and start saying its a below average game.

If you look at the work Square puts into each FF, the time it takes. You have to appreciate it.

How do they calculate what damage your characters do? How do they plan the game so that you can beat the next boss without it being impossible? How do they work out that enemies in one area will give you this much exp and will level you up for forth coming battles? Mind you they cant level you up too much that it becomes too easy.

It's actually quite mind boggling. How do they plan that you should learn this ability by then etc etc. Then they have to make attractive graphics. Fit in a good storyline. Do the CG scenes.

Not easy work. I'm not saying we should appluad them for making the effort. I'm saying, they put this much effort in and they always seem to fit everything in perfectly.

My standards arent low. I know good quality from bad. FF6-X2 are high quality titles, no doubt.

btw, I have not played FF1-5. Can't find them anywhere.

Just so you know if you want to carry on a conversation there is a private messaging function in the boards as well.

But I want everyone to see it.

Mr. Mimic is right, I don't mind the discussing, but please try and keep very short "chatty" posts to a minimum, it just makes the thread too long too quick.

Anyway Penance99999, your last long post totally sums up what I keep thinking about the game, and which is why I say that if the other FF's didn't exist, people probably wouldn't think FFX-2 was bad, but ah well opinions will be opinions, and I just think it's a fun game, that's all. =)

I didn't like the concept of it since it was released. So I've decided to not even give it a chance.

Plus I didn't like FFX that much, so I didn't want to see what its sequel would be like.

But I wouldn't say it's the WORST ff, but I could never see myself liking it, even if I played it.

with the exception of ff mystic quest and ff tactics advanced, all ff's rule. but despite ff8's flaws, i loved it, and despite ffx-2's good points, it really doesnt stand up 4 me.

actually i love playing ff7 on active, but its slower then ffx-2 slow. however putting ffx-2 on slow makes me feel cheap, so i keep it on active. i,ll try and play it as it was meant 2 be, even if i dont like it much.

but ffx-2 scores extra points 4 the commesphere scenes, espicaly in the hot spring at gagazet. those scenes rocked.

i love all the numbered ff's and i appreciate credit when it is due. but despite all that went into FF spirits within, it sucked big time. i respect there efforts, but the film still sucked.

[moston kid]

yeah the film did suck but ffx-2 didn't suck even though it is to easy but in the tunder planes the lighting towers are hard

I only have one thing to say about FFX-2: fight the last two bosses in Via Infinito, and you will be pleasantly surprised.

Is it the worst FF ever? Nope. I've only played from FFVII on, and I've liked all of them. They're all very different games, and while I have favourites, they're all still good games.

I can see why some people wouldn't enjoy FFX-2, but I did. The songs and music weren't my kind of thing, but overall, it's been a pretty fun game. It's a lot more light hearted than most of the other FFs (and RPGs overall o_o) that I've played, and it's been a nice change of pace. If I want to play something dark and moody and epic, then I'll go and play a game like that. But it's still good to have some variety. The battle system has been really fun, and the quirky little sidequests and mini-games, too. I like the dresspheres, and the faster paced battles.

It's not bad, just different. Traditional styles are nice; but some innovation can be nice, too.
