Final Fantasy X-II is trash

Between dresspheres, and the battle system inducing seizures.....I just don't know what to say.


Also, why would Paine stand with her back facing the enemy?

This is the worst square product I've ever encountered.
 
I agree. I am a huge FF fan and to me FF-X-2 was a huge letdown.

I don't understand why they did it that way to be honest.

To me, FF X was a huge success because of the way they did things.

They changed FF X-2 so much that it was barely recognizable as a continuation

I absolutely loved the bubble system for abilities i n FFX and how folks could jump in and out of battles. I cannot stand the dress spheres in FF X-2. Too easy to master a dress sphere. Can't buy any weapons in FF X-2 and the theme is definiately not serious enough...it's too silly. Yuna acts like a School girl. What happened to the serious Yuna in FFX?

I haven't finished it and having difficulty finding motivation to keep playing it.

I hear that FF XII (FF 12) is going to be dress spheres also, but like in FF tactics.

Before I get too excited, I'll wait to see how it looks like. Square disappointed me with the movie and now with FF X-2. Square, please keep to the amazing formula you were using before hand. It worked wonders!
 
ya.. after playing ffx2 after playing ffx years ago.. i had to play ffx again, and it felt so much smoother/better/more fun. ffx2 was childish, stupid puzzle games.. NO strategy whatsoever.. i was able to beat the whole end by just holding down the attack button heh
 
Question: If this is supposed to be the "Final" Fantasy, why isn't it final? They finally need to stop making the series crappy and spend some quality time on creating good story, game engines....

Square though Final Fantasy was going to be their last game. If it didn't sell well - they were bankrupt.
 
storyline wise, FFX-2 sucked pretty badly.

but I was a big fan of the dress sphere idea (though I wish they had renamed it), and I loved the battle system. I was really disappointed to find out that FFXII wouldn't be picking it up.

FF is shite period.
I have to disagree, I picked up a used PSOne a couple months ago to see if I'd like console games (since my last console before that was an Atari 2600), and the FF IX that came with it is actually pretty fun. A decent battle system, and an OK (if unspectacular) story with some cool CGI cutscenes.

It's nowhere near the level of PC RPG classics like Wasteland, Fallout 1-2 or Planescape: Torment, but FF IX is better than Icewind Dale or Dungeon Siege.
