Am I The Only One Who Actually Like It? - Page 2

I liked the upbeat and postive activity in the game. I love the dresspheres and the gameplay of FFX-2.

Only thing I really hated was how short and shallow the story line is. It needed more depth. =/.

Don't sell yourself short, you're only one out of a super giant billion-some number of people. There are plenty of people who like the game, I'm sure. But those who absolutely admire it and adore it more than any other Final Fantasy are probably in very low numbers. xD

I think the accusations of this game being too light hearted are a bit misplaced. There's nothing light hearted about the whole Lenne/Shuyin business from where I'm sitting, and information about Zanarkand and Spira's past certainly made things interesting too. The storyline (though it starts out pretty slow) is great, and I rate this game almost as high as FFX.

But what really breaks it is the whole chick-flick feeling of the game for veteran players, because they're expecting it to be epic, and by far the coolest fucking thing ever made.

Disagree. The battle system was fun, for a change. It was also nice to see the return of the job system, one of the really fun elements of Final Fantasy.

I didn't really mind the story, though. It wasn't too interesting, but it's actually one of the games I play every now and then. The only things that I really hate about the game is how long it takes for the game to finally get started, and Blitzball. They completely fuxed it.

It's okay. I didn't hate it, nor did I absolutely like it...it was just so-so. Granted, it was fun and upbeat, but the storyline didn't catch my attention as much - probably the main reason why it didn't exactly appeal to me. However, the part about Shuyin and Lenne actually interested me. I'm a sucker for tragic romance.

And I did love the music. xD 1,000 Words and Real Emotion are both awesome!

UGH! The Blitzball. Why in the hell did they change it? I loved Blitz in FFX. Psh. That was bullshitt.

I agree Suki. =). I loved the music in the game. Very catchy. I also loved their phrases in battle.

Not only does Blitzball in it suck, it's hard as hell to figure out. :(

You have to lose like, 80 times so you can train your team well enough to actually be able to beat another team. Utter crap.

I lost only a few times in FFX, actually. It was so simple to learn!! Why'd they change that shit, mayne? Urgh!

I don't know if I even tried after the first time that I HAD to play Blitzball in X-2.

See that's where I disagree. The whole Charlie's Angels wannabe thing was only really prevalent in the beginning of the game. After that, I actually thought that it did possess the epic quality of other Final Fantasies.

Oh yeah, and I agree with everyone else about Blitz Ball in FF X-2. Blitz Ball in FF X was a great and really funny mini game. If they had just taken that, and perhaps built a little upon it, it would have been great. But that was just not to be I guess

Eh, I sucked at Blitzball in FFX so I didn't even bother trying the Blitz in FFX-2 lol

Allright it wasn't epic, allright the storyline wasn't all that serious...but I really loved it! It was fun, cute, and I loved the battle system a lot! Maybe it wasn't like anothe final fantasy, but I liked it nevertheless.
