Meh, I didn't mean to bite off anyone's head. I was just in a typing mood, and I love FFX.

And about the spoiler tags, I just assumed that everyone played it. They're fun tags though, so I'll probably use them, even if they do make posts irrelevant. >>

Anyway back to the topic, yeah, character development wasn't nearly as large in characters like Kimahri and Auron. It's probably because they weren't hip youngsters but as I alluded to and some else said (too lazy to scroll up), most of his development was explained through spheres that the party find. They were still nicely placed characters to fill in parts of the plot and all that.

See, I dunno if I should've put those tags there, but I did anyway.

Not everyone has played it yet so you definitely need to continue with using the spoiler tags. They don't make posts irrelevant. If somebody has played the game and is curious what you hid when you used the spoiler tag, all they have to do is place the mouse of your post and it shows up.

It's definitely worth getting. It has an amazing story and characters, a decent enough levelling system, and amazing music. I dislike the lack of summons occasionally (although 'quality over quantity' springs to mind; Bahamut is <3) and the world feels a little linear, but it's an amazing game and definitely one of the best games ever made.

The leveling system isn't nearly as horrid as it was in X-2 and XII (by that I mean it doesn't take assloads of EXP to reach the next level). As for summons, I didn't feel there were too little. The optional summons add more (and they are definitely worth getting, too) and plus, the Aeons are usually cheap wins in fights (unless you're in the monster arena or something), so it would kinda take the fun out of things I think if you had a ton of Aeons at your disposal.

If there's one game i'd recommend to anyone, it's FFX. I got my Brother-in-law's 17 year old Bro hooked on it last summer and he flew through the game in less than a week almost. It's a game that captures you right from the start and leaves you hanging for more at the end.

Emotion, suspense, rock'n out to Otherworld, this game has it all. Go. Buy. Now.

Yea, it's one of the greatest game that SE made.
The world map is a bit different but I don't care and the romance crap in it have a unique way..

Absolutely. FFX is one of the most worthwhile games there is. The storyline alone is a good enough reason to get it.
