I admit it it, I do not like this game.

May 7, 2007, 7:29 PM

A ton of people love this game, but...I do not.

Why, you may ask? For a couple of different reasons.

1. All the male characters look like females. I'm not sexist, but if you look down the line, the guys actually look like guys. I'm sorry if I offended anyone with the sentence, I'm just stating my opinions.
2. The battle system was absolutely horrid. I wouldn't mind DoC's battle system in this game. No stupid lines. (and yes, I know you can turn them off in Config)
3. Lack of story.

Sorry for all the XII lovers out there, I just do not like it.

I lost interest around the part where you had to fight a giant bird in front of a temple. Maybe I will consider playing through the whole game, but I doubt it.

The one thing I did not mind was the licenses and gambits.

Post your comments here.

*readies to avoid projectiles*

PS: This is not a haters thread, I'm just pointing out why I do not like the game, so don't flame me about it being a haters thread because its not.

People in Japan don't have facial hair, Cloud's Nobody, so what do you expect?

As is with most FF's. Tidus, Cloud, Squall. o_0

No, it wasn't a pleasant battle system.

Even Square Enix have their off days.
FFX-2 is living proof of that.

If you look at Tidus then back at Vaan, what would you think? I thought it was a female the first time I saw Vaan.

May 7, 2007, 7:36 PM

Maybe they got it mixed up with Val.

Rofl. I'd laugh if Square announced tomorrow Vaan's name is actually Valerie.

lol, that's so going in my sig.

And I respect everyone's opinions if they have truly played the game and given it a chance, but I don't really understand why you think all the men like like women in this game...? Vaan, I can understand, I'm not talking about him xD But, Basch? Vossler? They looked like women? Reddas? The Judges? I mean, none of them looked remotely feminine to me O_o

Balthier was a little on the.......fancy side, but he never struck me as a 'woman'.

And there have been plenty of past FF's were the guys looked a little to pretty for their own masculinity. I mostly point to Squall & Irvine (VIII), Kuja (IX), and Tidus (X) to a lesser extent.

I'm not a fan either. I played for a while, and my feelings on it changed. At first I didn't like it, then I had a total change of heart and for a while I loved it. But now I can't stand it. It got really boring and repetetive to me, and the (small amount of) character interaction is poor to say the least. I thought SE pissed on their chips with XII.

Yes but Balthier is British.

Exactly, he's British. Not a British lady xD

xD.

I love how typical animé/FF men look like women.
And the women look like two huge ballons with a face hiding somewhere behind it all. o_0
