No spoilers without tags please. Preferably none at all.

Went in completely blind. I had a Gamecube during that generation, and I'm trying to slowly go back through all the PS2/Xbox/Dreamcast classics. Final Fantasy X-X2 HD remaster... it looks amazing on PC. Like a PS3 or even a PS4 game in some places

Has a really cinematic opening... can see where it influenced the next 20 years of RPGs. Still have no idea what's going on. Blitzball star, huge water bubble, sucked into world, now I'm looking for wood for my fire.

Not sure. There was a prompt when I started my file, hoping it's within the settings

If you didn't call the MC Tiddies then you've already messed up and should restart

Yeah, lol. The game will eventually explain all that. In the meantime, this allows Tidus to be a bit of a "Luke Skywalker" who gets to get this new world explained to him (and by proxy, to you the player)

Tagging this. It's a beautiful game and I hope you enjoy the laughing scene.

How much did the pc version cost, by the way?

I replayed both X and X2 remastered on the PS3 last year.

They hold up quite well and look amazing for a PS2 game.

X is still probably my favourite battle system of any FF game. I love that you can switch out characters whenever you want.

No, anything but Meg Ryan is criminal and warrants a restart.

Looking forward to this topic, FFX has become one of my favorite Final Fantasy games.

Speaking as a big FFX fanboy, how was its opening any different to 90s RPGs?

Well, the technology had shifted. I meant to say it also paid homage to the 2D/early 3D games before it. Like this was in the middle of both trends

I love it

Just wish there were more ways to customize the characters.

The sphere grid was so cool but each character always turned out the same. Lu was always black magic, yuna always white, tidus always haste/slow, mari always useless

Each playthrough always feels the same
Expert Sphere Grid really helps fix that, At the very least you can make Khimari useful in the beginning as an early thief. If you want to get really crazy there's a randomizer for that game that will definitely change things up.

I don't know why they made all of the optional stuff so awful

Chocobo racing, butterflies, blitzball (unless you recruit a god team), optional bosses with 50 million health.

Why the fuck would I grind the sphere grid to 100% completion just to be able to beat a reskin of another monster/boss/aeon? How lazy is that

I bought FFX with my PS2 and it was the first big purchase I ever made with money that I earned from my first job.

Big time nostalgia for me too.

Were you there at the time when it was a new game? The last game was FFIX, which doesn't look bad, but imagine going from that to FFX. Staggering.

Me too. I wouldn't even rank it as a top ten game for me but it was definitely very enjoyable and hard to get the magic again. Honestly might install the HD version I have now and try it again lol

I know it's probably too late but I strongly suggest using the Expert/international sphere grid. It's completely open allowing you to send any character down any path. Give Lulu some healing spells and Yuna some black magic and duel Gray Mage that shit.

Nah, it's most fun to just not use the grid at all.

I think this is a bad idea for a first time player. A lot of the characterization is in the set path they are. Even down to their appearance/colour palette vs what class they are.
If someone is experiencing the game for the first time they should prioritize a good balance of story and gameplay and the original grid does a good job of that.
