So a friend and I started playing through FFX today just to go back and relive the memories of a great game and try to come ever so closer to piecing together every piece of of the FFX plot-line puzzle.

What I noticed though as we made it to Kilika today right after Yuna performs the sending, is that it seems that Tidus finally understands how important Yuna's mission is and how deadly Sin can get if it isn't stopped. Tidus has already formed that crush on Yuna, and very quick and deep bond with Wakka and vise versa, so here's my question:

If you were Tidus, would you wish to go back home immediately and return to how things were before being sucked into Spira, OR would you have the passion to fulfill the new role you've been given, as assistant and guardian to the new sumoner, create a closer bond with 6 new friends, and rid the world of the evil that threatens all of Spira.

Basically: Go back now, back to normal, or fight on and continue with friends that were just made and see what develops with Yuna, as well as put an end to Sin.

Spoiler: Imagine that Tidus wasn't a dream.
 
I think every normal person would be more than enlightened by the idea of following through on an adventure in a new world.
But leaving your family and friends behind...would be a huge burden on your heart.
Tidus however...didn't have any real family back in Zanarkand. =x
 
Hmm, I'd venture on with my friends and help defeat Sin. It'd be cool to explore new worlds.

And ride chocobos. :)
 
On second thought...I might crap my pants if I had to fight a marlboro...lol.
 
At that point he still wants to go back home. yuna hadn't even asked to be him to be his guardian yet. she does that soon... in kilika forest but not when she performs the sending. i remember because i was replaying through that part of the game not too long ago. so no, i don't think tidus is ready (and/or if i was in tidus's shoes, I don't think i would be ready) to help right the world. i think he was sad about it... but i don't think he fully understood sin, what yuna had to do, or what that meant on a larger scale.

All he knew at that point was: sin kills, yuna dances. He hates when yuna dances.

It was just a taste of what would later become his resolve for staying.

By the way, his friend is me. HA!
 
I agree that he is not 100% into the journey yet, but the look in his eyes when he see's Yuna for the first time, the few moments they share one the boat when he realizes he could finally find out what really happened to his father 10 years AND 3 months ago, and then the trust that Wakka has put in him as somewhat of an older brother stand-point.

You've definitely got to be thinking that if Wakka, Yuna, and CO. were instantly ripped away from him to and he was thrusted back into Dream Zanarkand, that he'd have that desire to go back to Spira and be with them in their pilgrimage.

God, I love this game.
 
He might miss them but that's it. He's no a hardcore hero, Busta. He's an athlete. A very not-so-bright athlete. I think he'd go on wondering but... never get too upset about it. He'd probably just return to his life and think it was some weird dream. One of the great things about Tidus is he's very real. His mannerism resemble that of any normal person... so he'd probably just go home, think it was weird, think it wasn't real, dream of what could have been if Yuna existed, and maybe see a shrink about it. But you can't say it was more because at that point he'd been there about a day or two. I have dreams that cover that span of time all the time... and no matter how real it was, if he's not there anymore it's going to seem less real as time goes on. And like I said, he's not bright. I really don't see him piecing it all together if he had an infinite amount of time. Probably got this treatment one too many times:

Going with the majority: keep going. He was honestly a little prick before he met Yuna.
 
I would carry on.

He'd get back to Zanarkand and wished he'd stayed, cause, look at the life he had there and look at the life he could of have, big difference.
 
Right. Like I said, he didn't have any real family back in Zanarkand.
Maybe he had friends on the blitzball team, but the game never mentions any of them. =x
 
Yeah that's true. I wonder who he hung out with. Never once did he mention anyone from back home except his mother and father. Interesting...
 
If there was a way to go back home then i think I would want to although if I was falling in love with Yuna I would obviously prefer to stay with her .. I mean my mother is dead, my father is missing, all I have is Blitz .... I would like more, I stay and get it !
 
At that point in the game...wi ould probably still want to go home, because i would be freaked out by this new world :P

P.S - I hate the way Tidus says 'Spira and Zanarkand were connected somehow.' Thats like saying England is connected with the Earth.
 
What would I honestly think? ''Whoa that Lulu chicks pretty damn hot. I'll go along for the ride abit and see if I can impress her..."

I'd be my intial idea anyways, motives obviously change after time....
