FFX-2 Endings FAQ
1) How many endings are there?
There are 5 different versions of endings altogether. Apart from the perfect ending, the endings are based on tasks you complete and not your percentage score.
Bad Ending
- Requirements: Don't defeat Vegnagun's head in time/lose in battle against Vegnagun/don't defeat Shuyin before he says seven sentences.
- What happens:
(SPOILER): Vegnagun's big cannon fires and Spira is destroyed. You'll then get a Game Over music.
Normal Ending
- Requirements: This is the ending you'll always see just for completing the game, however if you didn't complete other necessary requirements, you'll only see this ending. The other endings are just extra scenes on top of this one.
- What happens:
(SPOILER)Gippal, Baralai and Nooj make a speech in Luca. Yuna, Rikku and Paine ride on top of the airship, Yuna accepts she won't see Tidus again.
Normal Ending with extra scene
- Requirements: After you see the "Chapter 5 Complete" message, and Yuna is in the field of flowers (Farplane Abyss) press "X".
- What happens:
(SPOILER)In the Farplane Abyss you see Tidus appear and hug Yuna. She tells him she loves him, and he disappears again. (This is just a cut-scene, not an FMV). Then you see the Normal ending as above.
Good ending
- Requirements:
1) Speak to Maechen in Guadosalam in Chapter 3
2) Keep whistling (by pressing X) in the Farplane at the end of Chapter 3, until Tidus' ghost escorts you out of there.
3) Whistle (press X) in the flower field in the Farplane Abyss after completing Chapter 5.
When the Fayth gives you the option choose "Yes".
- What happens:
(SPOILER)You see the Normal ending, then a scene with Tidus and Yuna in Besaid.
Note: If you fulfil the criteria for the good ending but when the Fayth appears, you choose the option "It's better this way", you'll only see the Normal ending.
*** Perfect ending ***
- Requirements - Fulfil the requirements for the Good ending and get 100% completion.
- What happens:
(SPOILER)You see the Normal ending, Good ending, and then an extra scene with Tidus and Yuna together at the Zanarkand Ruins where Tidus explains why he's back.
