welp, I've been playing with a fevered passion. but U got me some gripin to do, well, 2 things only, other then that its sex-ay

*drumroll*
GRIPE NUMBER ONE:
this love story crap again, didn't they get bit hard enough in the ass to know that love between two chars nust -never- be anything more than a small footnote in explination for some actions

GRIPE NUMBER TWO:
no world map. NO WORLD MAP. No. World. Map

*nods to self grimly*
*can't wait for the ffx hentai to surface*

Frankly it is the love story that sets these games far and above anything else out there.

But I agree about the world map bit.

I liked FF8 and its story. It was very touching. Though why the hell the main character kept thinking he was all alone when he was with all these people ALL THE FREAKING TIME, I'll never know.

You're confusing "sappy gushy love story" with "plot". The two are not interchangeable.

The former existed only in FF8 and (I hear from second hand accounts) FF10. The latter exists in all of them and is the claim to fame for the series.

There's a sappy gushy love story in FFX? Dear god, did I miss that part?

Must have been some subquest I missed

I had Tidus tell Lulu she is more his type.

Just for a change. But I'm sure he'll end somehow still falling for...for...um, damn, can't recall her name, that other chick.

What he said.

The "love story" here is hardly ever expanded on, and isnt the central part of the story. a decent sized part maybe.

And its not "a sappy love story"

I mean, seriously. There is more to game stories than just "OH MY GOD BIG BAD ALIENS HAVE LANDED ON THE PLANET WE MUST KILL THEM!"

Note that I haven't played FFX yet personally, so I'm not commenting on it.

Overall, I like it, but i'm stuck in the friggin Yevon-Djose temple orb thing, at te part with the eye and the stuff and the, um, nevermind.

Definately better than FFIV, by a damn long shot, ehheh, *cough cough*...

I got stuck there, too. Falaanla saved me
Put two Djose orbs in the pedestal and push the pedestal into the room with the lighting crossing the pit. Then push it INTO the pit.

Yeah, I Know. Obvious.

Heh. I think that I would enjoy a Lulu-Tidus love fest, because they've both got interesting personalities.

I'm right outside the Yeven-Djose temple, *gulp*...

And a question... Is there any Damage or Defense on Weapons and Armor? I can't seem to find ANYTHING that shows me a weapons stats besides those actual abilities (I don't have an instruction manual)...


Also, is it just me, or is Lulu about to fall out of her dress?

IT DOESN'T MATTER ABOUT THE WORLD MAP'S LACK OF EXISTING!....THEY CAN TALK!!!......Everything else about the game is up to Square's usual excellence. FFX is the best game out for the PS2... and yes, I've beaten Metal Gear Solid 2, Z.O.E., Jak and Daxter and any other PS2 game worth playing.

There IS a world map.

It isnt a great one(at all hehe) but it shows an overview at will of Spira.

And those werent Icons like I said(thought they were from a distance) but city names spelled out horizontally in Japanese.

there is a world map(as said several times before)

just you never move on the world map itself. you're in a plain instead of a world map. or a mountain of ice, etc. you do sorta move on it when you get your airship, but not really, its really, pick location, it "flies" to it, but you are really teleported to a that is near where you picked

now i must go figure out how to get a 0:0.0 timer in this chocobo race thing..
