You don't even play...you just spectate. Who thought this was a good idea?

Probably should have deleted all together, but honestly with how much of the game is already minigames, I'm kind of glad it doesn't have a giant involved Blitzball game like the original had.

You don't really play in X either. Just kinda click some menu buttons and do some basic maths.

As someone who absolutely loved Blitzball in FFX, this was the most infuriating thing about X-2 to me. Most of the fun was being in control of the players. No idea why they thought this was a good change.

As someone who never touched Blitzball in X, it being removed does not seem like a downside.

You do play it though. You can control your players in Blitzball in FFX.

That's turn based gameplay in general tho. It's a formula people like.

Because when FFX first came out, there were a lot of people complaining about how Blitzball played.

You just reminded me that Jedi Knight 3 had a fully-functioning blitzball map on the mod sites.

Me before learning Jecht Shot: this minigame is straight-up trash!

Fuck blitzball and all the mini games in FFX. The remasters didn't make them easier either.

I honestly really liked the Blitzball manager style game. It probably helps that I really like sports team Building/coaching games.

If you get deep in the game a few players eventually catch up to his speed but yeah. Early/mid game he's the GOAT

But you control them, pass them to other players, attempt scores... the only difference between this and sport games is the stopped moment when you make your decision.

Rightfully so. The fact that storyline progress was tied to such a turd was such a bad decision

You didn't have to win, though. You could play the game, let the Luca Goers wreck you, and then progress.

Yeah, but that +4 strength sphere was the real prize.
