    I'm finished here. I got my point across. And I'm done with arguing with you over this.

    Thanks for the posts, especially Tavrobel, as that was informative.

    Im like an hour into X-2 and boy are battles FAST.
    I guess im too used to taking my time and thinking in X.

    But so far its cool.
    I like Yuna and Rikku. Paine isnt Lulu but she seems cool enough.

    I hated Wakka and Kimahri so good riddance.

    And i loved Tidus and Auron but theyre both 'dead' so it makes sense story wise.

    Though i hate the fact that i have to relearn the entire Al Bhed language. Grr!

    It's surprisingly different except for Spira's geography. Kilika and some other areas have undergone drastic changes.

    About the Al Bhed language, what's the use of reiterating the whole thing in X-2? Hadn't they preserved the previous collection in X? Besides that, 5 of the 6 members of Gullwings (Brother, Buddy, Shinra, Rikku and Paine) can speak and understand Al Bhed even without the magazines.
    Talk is cheap because supply exceeds demand.

    It is way different. waaaay different.
    Well, the entire game is made up of sidequests, you do it all in missions (and you need 100% to get the full totally perfect ending. yes...so many endings...).

    The story was pretty lame, though it was fun to play. And though the story sucked it, WAS happy-ish.

    Not different at all, Most of the old characters are here, the story continues from where FFX ended. Yuna's quest is loud and clear and she follows what she feels in this game. She grows up and learns new things, and lastly she is there for Spira once more. Very emotional and fun story, many quests and things to do.

    This game works you up, sometimes overwhelming but in the end you can't help but feel emotional 'bout it. Yuna does SO much just to see "him" again and that's respectable whether you like Tidus or not. It is very cool and I liked it.

    DeathKnight, stop insulting people. Everyone else has just as much right to their own opinion as you do to yours.

    You could argue it was Tidus learning Al Bhed in FFX and it's Yuna learning it in FFX-2. But it does seem kind of silly. I'm surprised she didn't pick up at least a little from her mother, not to mention her uncle and cousin. But I guess it wouldn't have gone over well in Bevelle or Besaid.

    FFX seems like a sad game compared to X-2.

    X-2's much happier.

    I did miss having so many characters, and it was totally pointless to have her learn Al Bhed.

    pointless??? If you actually played the game you'd see that there are ALOT of Al Bhed people to talk to and who also give you special items, tasks, or clues

    FFX-2 is NOT a stand alone game. Like I said before, FFX/X-2 go together and if it turned out that all of Yuna's guardian found a life and something to do then it's ok, YRP worked out great and brought freshness into the series. I mean, what would be the point of having 6 characters trying to find Tidus

    This game worked out great because it had a clear path, and Yuna stuck with it.
