Yuna_Firerose 0 Report post Posted February 5, 2003 The only other FF I've ever had a chance to play is VIII (yes I know what most people think, but I thought it was pretty good, especially the cutscenes [Fatalis Liberati and The Dance]) FF8, in my opinion, was the best FF on PS1. I tried playing FF7, tried to see what everyone saw in it...but I just couldn't do it. Of course, Squall and Seifer being *sooo* hot had nothing to do with it FF9 was a fun, silly lil game, but it wasn't as in-depth as FF8. FE2 was awesome! I loved the anime characters, the violence, and...the adult themes. Do you remember that, um, gadget that Rayne was attached to on the first disk, CV? It was........interesting. And I think FFX-2 is coming out in Sept. '03. *lets out a string of curses* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest KoR Fungus Report post Posted February 5, 2003 I saw the trailer. I dunno about this whole electronic kick square has gone on recently. Simple and Clean was actually pretty good, but I dunno... Eh electronic music and J-Pop fits the atmosphere of the game just fine. If they tried putting music like that in FF6, it would be horribly out of place, but this game has a modern pop feel to it anyway, so the music fits. Plus, it will give people good source material for DWI songs. Heh I'm so pathetic. The game looks very interesting, and it's nice to see a true sequel to an FF game (and a really good one at that), but it definitely does have a little too much of that Tomb Raider/Dead or Alive vibe to it. Yuna looks way too much like Lara Croft for my tastes. I don't like to see Square catering to the horny fanboys. I'm willing to give them pretty much benefit of the doubt this time around though, because FFX was really good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yuna_Firerose 0 Report post Posted February 5, 2003 Hmmm...well, actually, she's quite different from Lara. The flowy blue sash or whatever it is that's tied to her belt, is like Tidus's pants in the first FFX...he always had one leg longer than the other. So, Yuna wears the opposite side longer. Also, if anyone hadn't noticed, the black symbol on her shirt is Tidus's blitzball symbol. But I know what you mean about the Lara comparison. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yuna_Firerose 0 Report post Posted February 5, 2003 More on the battle system.... Credit: http://www.ffinsider.net/ Need I mention that these might be **possible** Spoilers? Oh, wait, I just did. Final Fantasy X-2 uses an enhanced version of the classic Active Time Battle system, in which each action will require variable length of time to complete. For example, using an item takes very little time comparing to casting a spell, some special skills also take more time to execute than regular attacks. In addition, the battle order panel from Final Fantasy X (located in the top right hand corner) will return as well, which lists the order of action between your party and the enemies. A new Attack Chain System is also included in Final Fantasy X-2, which allows multiple characters to chain attacks. The chain attack usually initiates by Yuna's Quick Trigger command. During the battles, each character can use the Dress Up system to change into different outfits and job classes by pressing L1. Confirmed job classes include Gunner (Yuna), Thief (Rikku), and Knight (Pine). Also, you can find some more info 'bout the Mission System here: http://www.ffinsider.net/ffx2/mission.php Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Conspiracy_Victim 0 Report post Posted February 6, 2003 OK so they're not abandoning the X battle system just adjusting it a bit. And really not all that much since some actions in X (like Auron's breaks, for instance) made for more time between character actions. Sweet. September?? Ugh. Oh well with C&C Generals, DMC2, etc. I'm going to be busy for a while anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yuna_Firerose 0 Report post Posted February 6, 2003 September's not confirmed, but that's the rumored date. Soo...hopefully it won't take that long. Whoah...I just noticed the difference in Yunie's hair. It's way more spiky than FFX....kinda like Tidus's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest JMA Report post Posted February 11, 2003 I hope Seymour returns in FFX-2. He was always one of my favorite characters. I'd like to see him in a role OTHER than villain, though. Maybe a reincarnation or an intangible spirit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yuna_Firerose 0 Report post Posted February 11, 2003 Of all the voice acting, I'd say Seymour's was the best. Hell if I was Yuna, I knew I wouldn't be able to resist the blue-haired, gel-loving Guado. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
