You mean, apart from FFV and FFVII right?
Despite what people say, there is nothing within FFX-2 that devalues the original integrity of FFX. I don't see any reason why it shouldn't have been made.
Time for Good news and Bad news, courtesy of Animaniacs.
Good News: SquareEnix made a lot of money, continued the plotline, added closure, created a new, faster system of battle.
Bad News: Refer to the thread called "What's so Wrong About FFX-2?"
In summary...
Square sold themselves to prostitution
Square didn't really make that great of a game
Square alienated long time fans
FFX-2 destroyed any emotion or goodness that FFX established
The list goes on and on...
Now if you will excuse me, I must take my leave, before DeathKnight tries to defend FFX-2 by directly insulting me, and not defending FFX-2 at all with whatever he THINKS is good about it enough to undo the absolute damage that FFX-2 created to destroy FFX.
It's like Katie Holmes to Tom Cruise. He's cool, then he starts jumping on the couch because his sister told him to.
It's not about wanting to make it. It's about HOW they made it. Square sold themselves out.Originally Posted by The Devourer Of Worlds
And for a small reference... I would ask that you read the entire thread, not just one post, and jump to conclusions, simply because you haven't played the game. Only you can make up YOUR opinion. I can't force mine on you, nor can DeathKnight do the same for his. Just don't become a fanboy who doesn't know what he's talking about.

yeh i understand where you are going but i was just wondering what other peoples thoughts were. it is obvious that they only made x-2 because of the money. should they of done?
I wouldn’t necessarily call it 'selling out'. Square made it obvious that they were going to take this one less serious than previous installments. It was a stylistic change that not everyone liked, but I wouldn't go as far to say that it was flawed.It's not about wanting to make it. It's about HOW they made it. Square sold themselves out.
As for the fan service, it really wasn't as bad as it could have been. Anyone who has seen Bubblegum Crisis Tokyo 2040 will know how far the Japanese like to take things when they are provided with female protagonists.
People seem to be under the impression that ever game apart from FFX-2 was made for fun. I have little doubt however that Square did intend people to enjoy the game, and I have even less doubt that they enjoyed making it.
Yeah, They should of released FFX-2, that would be a mess up ending of FFX. And Yuna,Rikku and Paine are really cool and funny characters to me, even the american actress really enjoyed doing there voices along with the japanese

Did I like it? Loved it. Do I think it should of been made? No. I was far happier with FFX's ending then a sequel.
I would agree with that had the game ended with the "Normal" ending. The "Good"/"Perfect" endings are what really ruined the emotional impact of FFX's ending for me.Despite what people say, there is nothing within FFX-2 that devalues the original integrity of FFX. I don't see any reason why it shouldn't have been made.
I like Kung-Fu.
I'm so glad they made X-2. I always wanted to see Yuna with a gun.
The Normal/Perfect ending is just a slight extension of the final scene in FFX. You can’t really say that it ruined anything if it was part of the original ending anyway.
They should have released X-2 if they had put some great time and effort into it.
Owen made this sig. R.I.P.
I actually think it was great that they released this game. To me, it was better than 10, I dunno, to me it just set aside all the other Final Fantasy's, maybe it just depends on the personality of the person that plays it.
I am very angry though. I bought the stratagy guide... and it garanteed 100% on the first try... it says I should be on 86% and I'm only on 83%... grr.
it wasnt that plotless all of you....
2 very differant tastes of games.
I like em both (x-2 being the better one)... I actually almost brought the strategy guide even though I already had 100% o_0
They should have left X alone. Then ruined it trying to go with the happy ending thing with X-2.
I have nothing against happy endings but it has o be done good.
Should HAVE, for God's sake
