Which is a long winded way of saying THIS WORLD SUX SO I WILL SPLODE IT.

Seriously, the game is just full of this kind of pretentious nonsense. Potential for storyline is a graet advantage to RPGs as a genre, but here it's just a burden.

And just what does Seymour do all that much dat someone like Sephiroth doesn't. He wants to destroy the world for heck what. Every villian wants to destroy the world for jack ****.

this kind of pretentious nonsense

What? Where? Explain yourself. Don't start shouting stuff without backing your **** up.

[Red Giant]

I'd thought it fairly clear that I was talking about your description of Seymour's motives.

So you're claiming the entire game is bad because you don't like Seymour's motives? (which you apparently still misunderstand because it's not the same as what you're saying).

That's pretty damn lame. That's like me hating the UK because I don't like your motives for not liking FFX.

"Boo! UK! Boo!"
"Why?"
"That one guy, I don't like him."

That's ridiculous Red, seriously.

I just saw on the DS rom-downloading very legal website "Mario&Luigi RPG 3".

I'm going to suggest it to myself, as soon as it's out in english.


Also, there's this game called Jojo's Fashion Show, which I'm getting with the hopes it's in any way related to Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.

 In other semi-related news, this year I'll start a japanese course so I don't have to wait for these games to be translated no more. And also to see Pyuu to Fuku! Jaguar.

Dude, since when has a Joestar actually done anything fashion-related...?

Also: No, there are no Stands or WRYYYYYY in JJFS.

Seiken Densetsu 3 aka Secret of Mana 2. Awesome game, bring a friend over for twice the awesome.

Oh, that game...too many memories...

I remember this one time...I was playing Secret of Mana with my friend Senate over ZSNES. We just got to The Empire (more than halfway through the game), and he's still wearing his a power wrist. It has 4 defense, as opposed to the ~20 defense from the armor available to us right now, but he keeps it anyways because it has +5 STR which he is convinced is more important than any amount of defense (it's not). So while we were in the shop at The Empire, he gave up control of his character for a moment to go AFK, so I popped into his inventory and unequipped his power wrist so I could sell it and buy a Golem Ring instead. He noticed soon after he returned that his power wrist was missing, and became irate. We had to go all the way back to Potatoes to buy back his power wrist. What he didn't know is that he could buy it at the shop we just left in The Empire.

Its a con. The game isnt even out in japan yet.

Stuff

Well no, as I said in my comment, the game was "full" of this kind of pretentious nonsense (implicit) e.g. (but not limited to) Seymours motives.

[spoiler]The characters UNIVERSALLY lacked any kind of depth, there was next to nothing behind Tidus and Yuna's "love" sideplot, the dialogue was vomit-inducing. Five minutes into the game the city is attacked by a demon whale thing. Only it's not because it's really made to protect a fake dream land of which you are a part of... and this explanation is WITHOUT the useless terminology. Every boss battle was a shameless appeal to the senses. I have no problem with elaborate characters, but when it holds no significance to what's happening it's somewhat irritating. We had giant robots and s+m fish things. The plot ranged from unintelligable to downright dumb. You wanna talk about ridiculous...[/spoiler]

And let's not forget the joys of exploring Spira. This is a map of it;

Plus, your comparison of a game to a nationality is a bit of a can of worms. You're suggesting that finding a fictional character in a fictional world dislikable is the same as disliking a real person? Is disliking a game's graphics the same as disliking what a race of people look like? Is thinking a games' story is ridiculous the same as thinking the behaviour of a nationality is ridiculous? Since when am I not allowed to dislike a game based on the faults of characters in it? I didn't realise that made me a racist.

*spoilers*
1) The characters are lacking depth? Sure, Tidus is lacking some depth but that's because he doesn't know what the **** is going on. Wakka and Lulu have depth in their characters because of Chappu. Yuna has depth because of Lord Braska. Auron has the most of them all because he's been through all this already. Kimarhi, well not a lot too say here. Silent characters tend to lack depth. But even though he's a silent character, he still has his background with the Ronso and his broken horn. Rikku has enough depth too. These characters are not lacking depth in personality nor history.

2) Tidus and Yuna's sideplot wasn't that expanded, but there were hints. Small lil' hints here and there (and of course the big scene in the water). Sure, it wasn't explored to the fullest and especially after entering the Calm Lands, but it's there.

3) The dialougue is vomit-inducing? Well, the dialogue is the same as EVERY Final Fantasy I have played. (V, VI, VII, VIII, IX, X, X-2, XII) The only difference between this and the old ones are that there are voice actors. If voice actors make you vomit, then Red, please stay the hell away from every game that's going to be released.

4) Five minutes in, Zanerkand gets attacked. Why? That's explained later. It's because Jecht was able to return to this dream-land to bring his son into the real world in the hope that his son could perhaps save him from being Sin. Sounds good to me.

5) Boss battles weren't the thoughest in part X, sure. I'll give you that. But you live in the UK, you got the European version. You have Dark Aeons, a fucken hard Ultima and Omega Weapon and of course, the strongest boss in the game for beating all Dark Aeons. Go try beating those extra bosses. Now that needs a lot of strategy.

6)"I have no problem with elaborate characters, but when it holds no significance to what's happening it's somewhat irritating." How can elaborating characters not hold any significance to what's happening? It's elaborating the CHARACTERS of this game you are playing. It's elaborating the CHARACTERS of the STORY. That holds significance.

7) "s+m fish things." Wait, what now?

The plot wasn't stupid. Like I said, the plot was the same as any Final Fantasy game. Someone wants to destroy the world, heros want to prevent it. I mean, almost EVERY RPG does this. There's always someone that wants to destory and always someone that wants to prevent that. The plot in Final Fantasy X had some nice twists, but it wasn't unintelligble nor dumb. Sure, you don't need a lot of brain power to understand it, but saying it's dumb is just going too far.

You forgot Penance, the super final boss. Arena abusing makes him easy too though. If you know how to arena abuse well, there is no challenge beyond getting the airship. Yunalesca is a hard boss though. MEGADEFF, DERP!

[arcaine91]

If you don't play it, you're a communist, a jihadist, and an anarchist.
