I like Eo2 a hell of a lot. But some of the gimmicks are wearing on me. Example: 3rd floor, you need to use the Lure Bell to pull the FoE away from the exit. I used the Lure Bell incorrectly the first time. The only way to get another one is to Chop some shit and sell it. This means you need to sink at least one point into Chop, which is more or less a waste. Then you have to pray that you "Chop" the right item. The first 3 times I got ambushed, the following 4 I didn't get the right item. I finally had to add a Dark Hunter to my team and use his version of Lure. That's not a challenge, that's just a fucking pain.
FFTA2, on the other hand, always has like 15 quests on deck at varying degrees of difficulty. It enourages you to swap jobs early and often and I love the skill system- Loot can be used to make weapons. Weapons give you skills. Skills open new classes. There's an enormous amount of freedom, where as in EO2 I'm stuck trolling the 3rd floor for wood.
From a gameplay standpoint comparing the two is unfair, but I'm having a hell of a better time with FFTA:2.

You are completely fucking off my christmas card list, you sick fucker.
Tabernac.
I like EO2! I do! But as much as a lot of the changes are good, they also backfire in little ways that make the experience agonizing. Whereas FFTA:2 just kind of streamlines the whole experience. Except equipment, which is a fucking puzzle until you finally figure it out

lol squarewhore. keep suckin that square dick.

Sounds like EO2 was too hardcore for you... FFTA2 really isnt better. You're just a softie.

Look, guys, I like EO2 a lot! FFTA:2 is just more fun. EO2 has a lot of annoyances that don't really do much for the gameplay

FFTA was shit so FFTA2 is also shit by association.

You're so wrong it's beyond discussion
Who cares if you finished EO1. That is not the game in question. EO2 destroyed you, so you scurried back to wimpy Ivalice.

I am ahead of my time! In a few months people will go, "EO 2 was fun, but had some weird shit going on". It's GTA4 all over again! And I didn't get destroyed, I was doing really well. I just got stuck trying to make another fuckin' Lure Bell

yeah, there are some really shitty things in EO2. "stay on this floor for 3 days straight". Aside from the difficulty, that takes something like 2400 steps (seriously). I don't even do the quests anymore unless they are done through the normal course of the game. The rewards just aren't worth it, they take you away from the main goal of the game, and they're just not plain fun at all.
I always did the boring shit while grinding or hunting other stuff. :-\

Exactly, IT'S ALL ABOUT THE GRINDING. Gillo is too much of a vajayjay to grind anymore I guess.
