I feel like this game has gone through waves of being appreciated and hated. Seems like its spun back to hated at the moment in some places. Where does Board 8 stand? I still love the game. --- FC: SW-8288-8096-1115 ... Copied to Clipboard!

Leonhart4 posted... X-2 doesn't even have the best battle system in an FFX game also I want to go ahead and agree with this. I loved X-2's battle system the first time, but on my replay last year I thought it lacked something. Yes, being able to cycle through jobs mid-battle is interesting and visually stunning for a PS2 title, but also the game didn't do anything with it. The game is either extremely easy (if you're equally leveled or overleveled (which is easy to do)) or impossible if you're underleveled. Maybe I'm wrong about that last part but I don't think I am. There are also tons of jobs that feel relatively useless compared to others. If they could keep the switching but balance the jobs and add some strategy then it might really be something special. --- while you slept, the world changed ... Copied to Clipboard!

colliding posted... also I want to go ahead and agree with this. I loved X-2's battle system the first time, but on my replay last year I thought it lacked something.This for sure. It's really fun and flashy, especially for the time, but it seriously lacks the depth of FFX. There are a bunch of really easy cheese strats after getting a few spheres. You just pick one and steamroll the whole game with it. Using any other spheres or garment grids was just intentionally hurting yourself. Whereas each area in FFX felt like a real step up in challenge with new attack patterns from enemies, and most every boss is some sort of puzzle that is really well balanced. You can always grind to make the boss easier, but you have to figure out the "trick" either way. On replays it ends up being super fun to use your knowledge to go way faster and beat bosses underleveled. Really rewarding to learn and optimize that battle system. --- _foolmo_ he says listen to my story this maybe are last chance ... Copied to Clipboard!

The strong aspect of the game isn't the story, or even the gameplay, it's how the world feels. Been able to revist areas really adds good layers to the experience and I found that really cool. I liekd the interaction between characters as well. On the other hand, there isn't going much in certain areas in certain loops of the game. What I like the least isn't even the main plot (which sucks), or that you aren't done leveling jobs when the game ends (and again and again), it's the missables and BS hidden stuff that only get unlocked with several arbitrary answer combinations, or the order in which you do trivial things. Game is riddled with those and require several playthroughs to get everything, and if you missed what you wanted, you have to wait till the other loop, and by then you aren't replaying the game cause of the fun factor. I like the game more than I don't, but the things I don't like can get really agggravating. --- Last finished: Super Xevious: GAMP no Nazo (NES), Xevious (7800) (Intermediate), Threshold (2600), Sub Scan (2600), Stargunner (2600), River Raid (2600). ...

It's enjoyable enough to play but not fantastic and as a story entry I wish it doesn't exist because FFX ends perfectly and this game does it no favors. It's ironically probably the only game I have bought multiple times despite not enjoying it that much because it's bundled with FFX all the time lol. --- Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to azuarc, the winner of the Game of the Decade II guru contest. ...

I do think that part is good. People hate when beloved characters change and evolve but it makes a lot of sense, especially considering she was like 17 in X. But it wasn't a problem in X either. Also I don't think X-2 affected anything of X's story. It stayed fully at arms reach IIRC, maddeningly so. --- _foolmo_ he says listen to my story this maybe are last chance ... Copied to Clipboard!

Hmmm. Kinda on the fence for this one here. I really enjoy the battle system. Kinda like seeing a different side of Yuna. That being said it's far too silly for its own good.
