FFX-2 just didn't cut it as a worth while FF series though it did serve as a good sequel

FFX-2 was not really a game I got into the battle system is the only thing that I liked the dresspheres were a bit boring. and only a choice of 3 characters that really was quite a let down

I voted for X-2 because it wasn't really a FF game to me. I stopped playing after a matter of minuites; that's saying somthing huge to me.

Haha, i actually got through a good bit of X-2 and tried to stick with it, but two huge things prevented me from doing so:

1. that damn sudoku tournament...WORST. MINIGAME. EVAR.
2. took forever to gain exp and the only things that gave decent EXP i couldnt handle

Actually, it is worse than hack 'n' slash since you are actually getting involved in the play of hack 'n' slash but I will admit that it isn't my favourite type of gameplay.
Anyway, back to FFXII. FFXII you can basically run around, levelling up without even pressing a button. I tried this and for about an hour or two all I had to do was move the analog while the AI would do the work and I would be reading forums. That sounds fun, doesn't it?

Dont get me wrong, I know FFXII isnt perfect, but it is far from hack and slash. And no that doesnt sound fun at all. I always turn gambits off on the character I'm using just so its a little more involving.

Final Fantasy XII is the biggest letdown of a game that I have ever seen.
1) Way too easy.
2) No story at all really... Vaan - "I'm just along for the ride." Some character...
3) I like to max my characters to 99... being level 60 at the end of this game... BLASPHEMY!

I would rather play Crystal Chronicles.

If anything, I found that some previous FF's had a bit of hack and slash action in it, most battles could be the same old routine, and that can't be denied - you would either summon, use a limit break, or attack/use magic in the same way. XII didn't rely heavily on just hack and slash. Don't use gambits, try different battle methods. Don't be lazy and leave them on Gambits all the time. I know characters will continue doing the same move, but, you can choose to cancel a move and do something else - how good is THAT? You can make an error, and then correct it!

Oh, you say FFXII is too easy? Go play X2. THAT was easy. You like to max your characters to level 99, even though you don't have to? You can complete X2 at level 45. Most FF games though can be completed at level 60 and below. I think I did the same with VII - I never do with VIII, I always overlevel. So, to complain about XII in that sense, is a little bit unfair.

Crystal Chronicles had far less of a story. Bah, humbug XD
