Where has Raziel been?

It's an entertaining machine. I'm just bummed that I've already finished both Zelda and Rayman, and I've got a month or two before anything else of note is released for the system. I haven't picked FFXII up yet, actually. I've been on this several year "Final Fantasy Renaissance" in which I've been trying to play all ten games either for the first or second times. I just finished FFX for the first time about two months ago, and I loved it. I just need to finish replaying FFIX, and pick up FFIII on DS, and then I'll have the entire first ten games under my belt. I was planning to pick XII up after that. How is it so far?

It's very unlike the past FF games when it comes to gameplay, though when it comes to the actual game and story it's pretty resemblant of the older games in my opinion.

FFX was indeed awesome. Nikki says FFX-2 was good too, but I can't force myself to play through more than an hour of it.

I sat and watched my friend bomb through it in a day.

It's not a bad game, but it's nowhere as good as FFX.

I've completed the first chapter of it completely... and can't bear to put myself through the rest. Unlike FFX, with it's replay factor, once you've seen FFX-2 all the way through once you just lose all heart to go through it all again.

Well, at least I do.

I just hated the whole feel of FFX-2. I hated how they never actually called Tidus "Tidus", simply because not everyone went through the first game with him named that way. I hated how all 3 of the main characters were girls, not that I'm against girls or anything, but it just felt weird playing 3 girls as the main characters who change what they can do by getting dress spheres. I wouldn't say FF is a manly type franchise, but they got a bit too girly with FFX-2.

I also hated how the game was in chapters, and how it didn't really expand on FFX all that much, it was pretty much like a new game with somewhat similar characters(Yuna is completely 100% different in FFX-2.)

raziel what do you think of me being admin


i hope to hear your apathetic answer towards my "mediocrity"

Yuna is still Yuna, she's just had a lot of Rikku rubbed off on her. FFX marks the end of an era in its world, so of course there isn't much to expand on, however, FFX-2 delves into some of the world's history. The chapters thing was pretty dumb. I was fine playing with three girls as characters, and found the dresssphere system logical and consistant with the lore, as well as making much more sense as a way to swap out different capabilities during a fight than having seven characters who all fail if three of them get knocked out.

I prefer the 7 different characters.

They give the story more depth, and it's a lot more fun to customise 7 completely different characters than 3 characters 7 times.
