Final Fantasy 7 Remake (PC/PS4) - March 3rd, 2020

I don't think you remember what zones looked like in FFX

No, I do.

My point was that, in my experience, X's hallways didn't feel that egregious because of the storyline supporting that urgency of "must keep moving" and you got lore/story presented to you by interacting with the NPC's and the environment.

XIII shoved all of the extra stuff that made X not feel so strict into a book that you could or could not read. The removal of that narrative support was XIII's issue, not the hallways themselves.

XIII should have rolled the dice in being an 80 hour long game. All of the additional arks, dummied out areas, narrative and story elements may have not panned out critically, but at least it would have felt like an epic before reflecting and digesting it.

And like I said. Blitzball.

[Lucavi]

Praise Blitzball.

[Tyrath]

The worst thing FFX-2 did was changing Blitzball.

[Mrbeansman]

Blitzball got old real fast I always hated it once I got the item for Wakka's ultimate weapon.

[Tyrath]

Shun the non believer. SHUUUUUN

I feel like the love for X on this forum really splits the age range for posters.

I fucking hated that game. Played it once and never looked back. It was linear and I found the story to be garbage. I liked XIII way better despite it being garbage because at least I got australian lesbians out of it at the end. All X gave me was fucking Tidus.

[Krandor]

X sucks, I'm with you there.

[Mrbeansman]

X's pure turn based combat shits on every ATB system in the series.

[Mrbeansman]

Still its a shame the lightning mini game is impossible on non crts.

[Lucavi]

Splits the age range in what way? I'm 35. Are you 15 (lol) or 50, Sath?

[Kaslo]

No, I do.

But that's not what you said.

[Kirin]

But that's not what you said.

It's exactly what I said.

Git gut.
Or play the PC version and use a mod to cheat, ha.

[Kaslo]

It's exactly what I said.

You literally said it was linear in story, whereas you said 13 was "just linear." Your new post is admitting FFX was just as linear, but stuff made up for that linearity.

Ill take the 2nd option already did that shit back in the day when input lag wasn't fucking it up.

15 but don't tell my dad I'm posting here

[archibaldcrane]

XIII was frustrating because the one open world part near the end where you are doing hunts, searching for Chocobo items, etc is arguably the best purest expression of fun in any FF game.

And the rest of the game before and after is shit.

Okay BRP.

There’s a name I haven’t heard in a while. I miss that guy.

Y'all are nuts. People are nostalgic for turn- based RPGs. I realize that now. As long as the gameplay mechanics adapt to this new system it'll be more fun to play.

Nobody has 400 hours to sit and watch characters stand in a line anymore.

Tell that to Persona fans. I absolutely loved about all 100 hours I sunk into my first play through of P5
