I'm giving X-2 another go now, but ive already found and noticed things I dislike about it. I've reached Chapter 2 so far and I'll list bad points as I play along.

- Abundance of items. Theres just too many Potions etc. You go back to areas after each Chapter and open up a chest to expect a new and usefull item only to 'Scored Potion x5'!!! I've now got 99 Potions and well over 50 Hi-Potions and Ethers. Not once have I actually used a single one yet....

- Save Sphere healing. This goes for X aswell actually. Why did they do it so that everytime you use a Save Sphere, you automaticly get healed. Its stupid because now its made the traditional 'Tents' absolete and the 'Inns' in the games absolutly useless. It is actually rather tackky.

- The Characters behaviour, especially Rikkus. Annoying to hell. It makes the first Chapter utterly cringeworthy.

- The soundtrack. Yeah so the game is supposed to have a lightheated feel, but some of the music is really tackky and doesnt go with the settings either.

- Setting and Enviroments don't go together. This is for areas mainly added as extentions to older places from X, eg the cave in Zanerkand and the added area to the Manor in Guadosalam. The new places don't seem visualy right compared to the rest of it, like in Guadosalam your in a dingy natural enviroment that spans not only the town outside but inside buildings as well. The new part is all new, totally diffent setting and just doesnt look right. They should have made it more Guadosalam looking. There is many areas in the game that this applys to.

Thays it for now. Will post more as I progress. I'm not going for a 100% completion mind, just doing it because I've never gotten through the entire game before yet im determined to stick it out.

Yeah but when I go hunting high and low for treasure, it get highly annoying that its 'just' a Potion. Great I already have 99 of them, couldn't I have had a nice Accssesory? (sp? early morning). You would've thought they would have spreaded out the items more to make it more worth while and not so pointless. I've had trips all around Mt.Gagazet that were completly pointless because of such a thing.

Previous FF games it wasn't as easy to find Potions at the start without buying them, and if it was it then you'll probabably be needing them regulary. But there is plenty of healing Magic and Save Spheres around in FF X-2 for you not to need the Potions, so why is there so many pointlessly avalible?

Blah, the game just kinda sucked in general, can't compare with other Final Fantasy titles

I don't mind the whole Chapters idea. The game is pretty much a cross of FF V, X and Tactics Advance IMO, so structuring it in Chapter was probably the ways to go.

Just finished Chapter 2. Don't like how they are using the Dark Aeons instead of regular or new versions. I always saw that Dark Aeons were possessed by Yu-Yevon (being that red core-like thing they all have in Dark form) but now its just the image of corruption. Which is fine I guess but would have prepherd to fight a new style of Aeon instead of a cheap re-hash.

Some of the missions are quite cringy. And wtf is up with company Promotions and Bride Hunting? why oh why SE, why?

i didn't like the chapter thing, god how i hated it though i did like the emotions song as well as 1000 words, don't diss those two songs
