Only feggits can enjoy FFX-2, because only a taco could push that package down their throat in the name of gameplay.

If FFX-2 was simply named something else and featured all new characters and was called a new IP everyone would squee over it instead of hating it.
Best battle system in any FF.

So if we took out the bad parts of the game, it would be good? 

[Himu]

I CAN HEAR YOU

[StealthFan]

I was 16 years old when I rented that shit. I was like fuck yeah and then.....and then... 

[Himu]

That intro gives me life every time i watch/listen to it. i'm overcome with a sense of joy and laughter no one can tame

that intro is fucking hilarious

[Mr. Nobody]

I remember that massage minigame

[I'm a Puppy!]

I'll be honest. As much as I love FFX-2's battle system it is sorta hard to stomach.

My wife likes to watch me play and watched me play through FFX HD and afterwards we popped in FFX-2 and saw the intro and were like "Yeah.....maybe not." And turned it off. Still a better game than FFXII tho.

FFX original is also 6/10 game.

Thankfully, there's FFX International to make it an 8.5/10 game.

Final Fantasy XII was great and gave me hope that finally Square Enix had got their shit together.

Then Final Fantasy XIII and Lightning happened.

For real. FF12 haters can suck my dick. Best Final Fantasy out there and has been for nearly two decades now (of course, what else besides 13 has there been from Square? ).

Best of the PS2 FF's. 10-2 coming close, but not as many highs.

12 was blandness that was covered up by pretentious complexity. FFXII fans glomb onto this complexity and think "It is overly complicated therefore it must be good!" When really all it makes it is overly complicated. The graphics were good, but the dungeon design was god awful (who the hell thought that crystal dungeon would be good?), the story wasn't passable, only Balthier stood out as a character, but really it's mostly his potential that stands out more than the character, the vast majority of the music was utterly forgettable.  The summons were worthless. It sounded like it was recorded in a phonebooth and anyone with even a modicum of planning knowledge could have the game playing itself for 95% of the battles in the first couple of hours. If you have a game where 95% of the fights don't require any user interaction, why even have them. I must admit the world was full of potential and the monster hunt stuff was incredible for the first few hours. But really after the first 8 or so hours everything wears off and it's just a slog from their until the end. The Zodiac system makes a little more bearable, but its not enough to save it. You want my opinion? FFX-2 was the last good final fantasy.

This is the T right here. Truth tea served up with realness.

being the only person in existence who likes every main line final fantasy to some degree sucks ass

[WanderingWind]

How was FFXII complex? The game played itself for the most part - though it was at least more interactive than the shiny storybook of FFXII. It's was about as complex as setting a keybinding.

Oh, right, right. Consoles. 

[StealthFan]

Bringing mustard race bullshit in. If thats the case why is FFXIII so hot on STEAM?

[WanderingWind]

So hot.

The only person bringing up the word "complex" in regards to FF12 was Ronito. Neither I nor anybody else who liked the game here ever say that about the game in this thread. At least, not from what I've read.

I like the combat system due to full control of whichever character I choose, and found it to be the natural progression of FF's admittadly simple system. FFXIII was a regression in every way. It's too far up it's own ass in regards to shitty ass cinematics and story that Squeenix somehow convinced themselves that they are competent in handling.

The FFXII hate still baffles me, and makes me understand why FF games are as shit as they are now. Due to dumbass focus from the developers on other areas besides gameplay of which the fans herald as fantastic regardless due to dubious reasons. Now, FF stories were never great. Just fun in the sense of game progression and stupid japanese stuff that is entertaining. Now that the developers and the fans have convinced themselves that the series is somehow known for "excellent" storytelling and narrative, it's obvious that they focus on that. Which bred horrible results in my humble opinion.

tl;dr

I've reached max  on this dumbshit. So please murder me and end my suffering.

Anyone that says different is wrong just like FF12 haters.

The only thing I didn't like in FF10-2 is the mini-game-a-thon. Oh, and Rikku. 10's only claim to fame is Auron. Otherwise that "boringness" that 12-haters claim 12 has is in 10 in spades. Plus, HA HA HA...

As for 13: 13-2 is the only one worth playing. The other two are straight up . If you can ignore 13-2's story and Serah at least it kinda feels like a Final Fantasy.

I'm going for Plat on X-2 and it's pretty bad overall. Definitely prefer X. Havent played Last Mission yet, but I doubt it's gonna change my mind.

The Last FF I played I think was 6 and maybe a bit of 7.

I hate that game so very, very much. One of these days I need to give the DS FFT another go, as I heard it's quite good. But I don't know. Final Fantasy Tactics Advance really blew.
