What did u think of Final Fantasy X?

[Yuffie514]

+ Sphere Grid
i like almost everything about it except for key spheres, which at one point, left me temporarily stuck.

+ Party Swapping
a great advent that really makes each of the characters useful in their own way.

+ Music/Movie Spheres
i hope a similar option gets integrated into future games.

+ Weapon Customization
i don't need "this one" or "that one" because i made the one that is just suitable for me.

- Voice Acting
i find Tidus and Wakka's voice to be a little grating.

This has become one of my favourite final fantasy games out of the series. Memorable characters and a great storyline, as always a storyline that you can really get in to and appreciate. I thought the sphere grid was a touch of genius as opposed to previous leveling systems, and the addition of the expert grid allowed such a high level of freedom to develop the characters how you wanted.

The backgrounds, town, village and city architecture was great and added to my immersion in to Spira. Fantastic graphics, fantastic musical score, fantastic gameplay. It certainly was not the hardest FF game but there are always ways to make it more challenging.

There are some minor issues, such as the lip sync but I really did not let that get at me.

FF7 used to be my favourite but I have grown to really appreciate FFX. Besides I actually remember I time when FF7 was appreciated as a great game but now it seems to have turned more into a cult scene.

It was alright. It really could have been better in my opinion.

Well, maybe it's cuz there ain't no Eiko in it?? XD Or...Vivi, how sad.

Anyways, I didn't feel for it a whole bunch.

well liked it to a certain point I think it was when they went to Bevelle is that how u spell it? it was all great till then I just think the ending let the game down.

Nobou didnt write most of FFX soundtrack which is obvious, Its unsuited boring perpetual screaching, with three songs remixed 6 times. The storyline was simple, boring, with little progression that revealed to much to early (although it was all obvious anyway). After the first hour you had little story until the end.

The characters had no background, motivation (apart from one thrown in last minute that really didnt hold water) with awful voice acting. The game was so linar it removed all the fun, it was more action genre then rpg, and the games the shortest in along time.

Agreed.

You're making the game worse for yourself by focusing on all of these bad points "oh hey look her character's bad", ermmm, I'm sure you wouldn't notice if you didn't TRY to notice... You know what I mean? It's a game, it's created to entertain NOT to be critisized, if a game has bits you dont like in them, well thats it... Just dont play it, there is no need to critisize the game! It's really, pointless. And just adds a negative vibe to the whole, situation, ya know?
I hope someone actually takes this into account :/

that’s a good point its easy to point out the bad bits of a game than the good parts much like any paper you read theirs a lot more written about what’s bad than what’s good.

I liked FFX alot.

The story is great because it runs parallel to the player's experience. In the beginning of the game Tidus is taken to a completely new world that he doesn't understand at all. He is slowly introduced into the world just as the player is, and that helps the gamer identify with it more.

More importantly, it was also taking the player into the next level of gaming, it came out just after the shortage of PS2s was over and alot of people were playing the system for the first time. At the time, Squaresoft was once again taking not only gamers, but developers into what would be the next chapter of games, as it was one of the first games to really use the PS2s capability like that. The environments, like on the Mihen road or in that forest where the butterflies are, it was something that was never seen before in Final Fantasy.

That's why I really enjoyed the game when it first came out. I really liked IX and had high expectations for it, and I was glad to see that they were keeping the characters more class defined like in IX and VI. But at the same time, there was alot of customization and they were hardly linear. It was all up to the player.

I think it's a real good game but I don't know where I'd rank it yet among the other games in the series.

FFX is the best in my opinion. Until then (excluding FF7)the stories had been very predictable and bland.

(heehee, all the people with stuff against the game have stopped posting since my post, I think I win.)

[chrisfffan]

or maybe people have lost interest

I loved it at first, but then I wasnt getting sweeped along like I did with the other Final Fantasys. I didnt enjoy the characters as much and it did drag on for me.
