>Yuna – Final Fantasy X
Someone explain this to a brainlet.
Yunas character was literally the worst part about X, Im fine with her motivation and struggles but the character herself was awful

Attached: 26adc4d23bc3fcf233eb83a652e5f497-FFVI.png (1460x672, 655.14K)

Not really.

IX is much better than X. All of it.

see Exdeath (エクスデス) is ranked 130

She's still shit.

IX doesn't really hold a candle X. It's a very good jRPG, 8 or 9 out of 10. X is 10 out of 10 and one of the best video games ever made.

but 11 and 14 are not even real games
they're just mmorpg crap feeding off human weakness with addiction and subscription fees

>Tactics below XV
Not based.

Zack is popular as fuck in Japan

>argentina and chile FINALLY agree on something
pretty based

X is easily worse than VI, VII, VIII and IX. It's the most linear and boring part. Even the music mostly sucks.

You're thinking of X-2. Linearity of FFX is not unlike other installments in the series.

>worse than 8
not even close

X is good but it's weaker than VI, VII and IX and it's debatable on VIII. Being worse than the 4 games that came before it isn't a 10/10 game

I wish they called it something else. It's just not Final Fantasy.

Dude, X is the biggest trite in the universe. The entire fucking game is just about a bunch of beachbums walking around and playing volleyball.

IX is also shit but for different reasons.

VI - How the industrial revolution brings about WW1 and 2
VII - How the industrial revolution destroys nature
VIII - The horrors of child soldiers
IX - goblins and talking animals screwing around for 60 hours

Is this finally the end of the "Japan doesn't consider the MMOs real FFs" meme?

I don't think you played X

8 has better music, world and creature design.

>IX is also shit
>Praises VIII
The most brainlet of all opinions

That's laughable user, if there's any FF that is as good as X then it has to be 7 and they're pretty on par and are a matter of personal preference. So even to see titles such as 8 on your shortlist of comparisons really discredits your whole argument.

I bought a PS2 for it before you were born and beat it twice. After that I said "OK, Square, if the next one is bad then I'm done with FF"

Needless to say I was done with FF.

You obviously haven't played FFX, so why would you issue opinions on matters you are not familiar with? Are you not afraid of embarrassment?

lol. You also ignored how its story and gameplay are inferior to X

It is, by any metric. It is really a monumental game and I'm sorry you couldn't fully appreciate it.

I guess you're just a retard then if that's what you gleamed from X's story

People trying to sell you literal shit vs People in despair that they bought literal shit

Why did you beat it twice? I've beaten bad ff's like IX once, but why subject yourself through an entire game a second time?

Brave Exvius us missing from the list.

That game is awful. Easily one of the most boring of the thirty different mobile games.

How is X? Never played it and I'm currently quite bored.

I hate how FFX doesn't have world map and replaced it with straight roads with random battles. It's tedious and annoying.

What story? Half of it is playing gayball, the other half walking around. You don't even get an ariship until the last hour of the game. All set to THE most forgettable worst cast of FF characters ever.

Literally the only reason anyone likes X is because it had great graphics and because they were deaf and couldn't hear the voice acting.

combat is very streamlined and the pacing is good. Story is enjoyable if you turn off your brain otherwise it has a lot of fucked shit (although this is true for almost every FF game between 1-10). Music is good and there's a slew of end game content.

Very on rails so if that's an issue stick to classic FF

>remastered
What's wrong with it?

Because I was a dumb kid and enjoyed it greatly on release. The rest of you need to grow up and embrace the fact that X was a colossal fucking failure while VI and VIII have aged like Cabernet Sauvignon.

Missing effects, wrong colours, but the main offender is nearly absent facial animations and modeling of faces itself. It was made by an outsourced chink studio.

>12 and 13 cancerkids absolutely BTFO
This is nice.

Lies. It's the overarching theme of the game. Here's the (real) final boss throwing a volleyball at you.

youtube.com/watch?v=c6-8qMDg1i8

Damn. Thanks.

Japan loves X the most because it's Japanese as fuck and the first PS2 FF, so I'm not surprised. I've already mined a decent amount of salt from XIV's deserved high placement too, can't even blame it on recency since nips have put XIII in the fucking trash and XV continues to sink into the spin-off pit.

I don't know. The sprites are pretty fucking quality in FFBE compared to Record Keeper just using the same FF character base for every character.

nevermind I got it wrong, you're just autistic

Attached: FFX_Development.jpg (1440x900, 440.74K)

Fucking garbage taste. X was probably your first JRPG.

You have played neither IX nor X

Your use of the term "mining salt" implies that your love comes not from the quality of 14 but instead of people's hate of it. Basically you're human trash and your opinion means nothing because you base your enjoyment on bad instead of good.

I was beating dark aeons and ozma while you were a sperm.

The sprites are quality and I give the game a lot of props for actually making really obscure characters playable. But the game so boring.

They're reaching into the obscure because Square is creatively bankrupt. All they can do is rehash shit, or we get a game about four dudes driving a car in a desert. That's not a video game; that's a trip to see your family in Nebraska.

Only way I can think of making not boring is if you got the autism to get into making units broken. Friend that plays the game got a 7* Sora with 3000+ ATK and I've been doing BE JP recently, trying to make Phoenix Jake into a broken powerhouse

Is there any other game that lets you be THIS overpowered by the end of the game that the final bosses' strongest attack does 120/99999 damage?

I wish I could agree with you but Bravely Default (and absolutely nothing else) is 10/10 and even beats most of their classic games by reshaping the concept of turn based combat, having great music and a very unique story.

Infected by the eternal mediocrity of Enix.

Corporate greed, it's creatively bankrupt.

The fact that Emet and Shantoto are that high means majority of the votes are from MMO-fags.

They're literally the only people who have given a shit about Final Fantasy since like 2001.

I mean, I bet Konami is popular among the pachinko crowd.

Music didn't rank in top 20 so no

But VI is better than VII.

Who'd they poll? I don't believe for a second that the majority of Japanese players like FFVIII over FFIV. Japan loves the shit out of FFIV and that's why it's gotten 2 remakes and half a dozen releases, meanwhile it took VIII 22 years just to get a remaster because nobody cared. Is this another obscure or niche website/magazine poll?

but not X?

I get what they were going for, but she really isn't. She's just less annoying.

And Tidus is even less of one. Auron is the only legitimately good character in that godawful game.

Never been able to get into mmo’s so what is so great about Emet? All I know is that he has a pretty damn good boss theme.

IV has the best story. Japs just don't like it because they want the hero to be a sexually repressed virgin with a harem of girls instead of a happily married chad

He's a villain you assume is a lying, sleazy scumbag. He's an immortal ancient boy who's been steering history for eons and was the previous ruler of the evil empire. He "aids" you in your quest to help a realm cure itself of an overflowing of light.
Turns out he never lies to you once. He was basically the high judge of the ancient civilization and was a just, valorous man. He's become a bit curt and smug over the eons, but at heart he's still honest. He wants to join the fractured worlds back together and rejoin the souls of the current human race to bring back his race of people, who were their predecessors (modern people are just fragments of ancients). He was mentally enthralled by a dark god the ancient ones created to keep the world in balance and, as such, can not actually stop himself from rejecting your alternative solutions to his problem. The story ends with him showing you the way his people died in a horrifying vision of the ancient apocalypse and a duel to the death. When you kill him, he asks you to remember his people for him, so their legacy won't die.

but they like X the most where the MC has one dedicated love interest and not a harem

yeah but they were both sexually repressed and died virgins so they didn't mind

XI and XIV are more FF than 2, 10, 13 and 15. And fuck, XII's just Tactics 3.
