Board 8 > Punny plays Final Fantasy X (and possibly X-2) Instead of gettin guud at MVC4

(+) Yeah! (+)

I bought a game day 1 and I haven't touched it, and yet I'm in a mood for a totally different game

This is probably depression workin it's charms


So yea, there must be some of yall out there that are masters of this game, come help me out!

I've told this story before but I'll tell it again here

One time I went to my older brother's house, 3 hours away, for the summer, and because he worked out alot, me and my lil bro would join him and his friend. His friend was an above casual gamer and he asked me if I played FFX. I said no, and he let me borrow it for a month and just one month to beat it.

I ended up getting hopelessly addicted to Blitzball and I rushed the rest of the game when i noticed I only had one week left.
So I don't remember this game's story. Some of it, but definitely not most. So spoiling me isn't a problem here as I know most of the major plot points! Yet this playthrough is gonna be a true 100% run, playing and experiencing things I missed the first time, so its almost like I'm STILL playin through it for the first time anyways!

Ishn't dhat wheird!

as for X2, I rented it from blockbuster. so I only had 5 days to beat it. Don't remember much of it because I had to rush it. So almost the same thing!



So yea, if theres something missable coming up, let me know!
---

part of the reason why I wanted to play this game all of a sudden is because I noticed theres no playthrough topics for it.

For like, most of the year, there was always at least one

and I don't like running one at the same time as another because yall always get unenthusiastic with me and totally hyped in the other one >_>
---

Get all of the treasures in the temples the first time around. If you miss a Destruction Sphere, I highly recommend that you go back.

And you want to backtrack and get all of the Jecht Spheres right when you unlock them.
---

Also, most importantly, stay away from the summoner!
---

Good choice.
---

I will be playing the PS4 version


whats Eternal Calm and Last Mission?
---

watching the intro

The remastered portion of it is good in some parts and not too great in others

like, their bodies still have like a blocky look to it, but when it gets to their hair and faces, its not too shabby!
---

oh you want original music
---

Dodge the Chocobo, race the butterflies, and catch the lightning!

Eternal Calm is a short video between X and X-2 that sets up Yuna heading out on her trip with Rikku.

Last Mission is a, well, last mission for the Gullwings after X-2.
---

Sweet, I'll check those out


I guess I'll pick standard sphere grid

dunno whats up with expert
---

There are missable Al-Bhed translation things too. But I believe only 3 and they're all in the same place farish into the game.

And yeah I second making sure you full solve the puzzles in the trials as you get to them, because if you don't you'll be locked out until you beat superbosses.

If it's you're first time definitely go with standard
---

Also in my little story in the first post, that was 15 years ago
---

picked original soundtrack

gotta listen to Besaid's theme in its original glory
---

What was that ertyu quote about FFX
---

/oh my god that weird hooded ghost kid


since I skipped most of the stuff, I never remembered getting an answer on what the fuck he was
---

*names him Tyedus*

>_>

If you do miss those, just reload to an earlier save, grab them, and use the primer save file thing that's right around the corner IIRC.
---

I forgot about that metal song

I think its called otherworld?



Tyedus barely survives and encounters some monsters

after flailing around like the moron he is, MOTHER FUCKIN AURON gives him a sword

we're slicing up Sin's lice
---

I thought he just woke up at Besaid

I don't remember any of this stuff
---

GO
NOW
lF YOU WANT IT
ANOTHER WORLD AWAITS YOU

i have the soundfont for this song. its hilarious; theres an instrument for his voice and everything
---

I always found it odd that his Narration voice is much deeper than his actual voice

Sure hes probably talking about on these events so hes probably matured but still, IIRC he still sounds the same at the end of the game
---

aaaaand heres Rikku
---

So they said I can stay if I work

I talk to Rikku and we're already on our next mission


wtf, it didn't replenish our HP!
---

I see a save sphere on the ship

can't I go back?
---

I think I accidentally hit square and THAT did it

wtf


luckily I found this because the first Al Bhed thing was on the deck >_>
---

*talks to an Al Bhed guy

he asks me something

I say yes

tutorial for the sphere grid starts again*

Fuck
---

so Sin attacks again and Tidus wakes up at Besaid Island!


*Earlier*

Don't mention Zanarkand, You'll upset people


*To Wakka*

I"M FROM THE ZANARKAND ABES
---

IIRC

Doesn't Smartmuffin really hate Wakka
---

I dunno what it is but Wakka looks weird in HD Remastered Graphics
---

*besaid's theme kicks in*


awwwwwww yea

Sin's toxin get to you, ya?
---

Seeing the Temple's Summoner will apparently clear it right up!
---

"You have been fighting Sin for 800 years and haven't defeated it?"


Tidus with the shots
---

tyemom:Do you really hate him?

Tyedus:Yes

Tyemom:If he dies then you'll never be able to tell him how much you hate him!


What a dysfunctional family!

Everyone you've met on this island is super religious, to the point where they think a gesture from Blitzball is something sacred

ITS NOT A GOOD IDEA TO PISS OFF EVERYONE ON THE ISLAND BY FORSAKING THEIR RULES, TYEDUS
---

i got the rod of wisdom


I hope that was the only item!
---

So I finally met Yuna and we're fogonna head out the next day

Lulu scolds Wakka for taking Tidus in because of his similarity to Chappu

oh mah sweet Lulu

you got me through many Teenage nights
---

I'm on my way to the pier

guess theres nothing I can do about that treasure and save point down there below the bridge
---

Did you already miss an Al Bhed primer?
I only skim read but you said the first one is on the ship but isn't there one one that weird island area before you meet Rikku? Like right after Tidus wake up the first time.
---

Did i?
God dammit guys!

Nope. #2 is back in Besaid though, on the floor of one of the huts (can be hard to see with the camera angles).

Talk to the lady in the shop if you go back too.
