Yikes, dude. That's a hell of a ramble. You jump around your points chaotically sometimes but it's an interesting review of the last FF game that managed to hold my interest enough for me to beat. Put hours into XII and XII, but they always felt like a chore.

EmP, funnily enough, I didn't beat this one (I reviewed it for a contest, was in Yunalesca's late-game dungeon when I had to get it written for contest deadline, picked it up once after that, went the wrong direction at the save point I was at, left the dungeon, went back to the save point, quit and never played it again), but did endure XII and XIII.

@EmP: I'm coming off of the worst bronchitis+possibly everything else I've had in maybe decades, and I might well have given myself more time to write this more clearly. On the other hand I could have written four times as much, so I'm not sure it would have helped. About FFXII/XII, it takes more than an attractive lead to keep my attention, and Square's penchant for RPG experimentation went off the rails for an on-rails title - at least, in the first one.
Look, the only time I'm not wrong is when I'm right, so... |

I'd agree it would be easy to just keep talking about FFX if the mood did take you. I actually tried to review it back when, and gave up for a few reasons. I suppose the most relevant one to this discussion is that, because I live the UK, we got our version about half a year or so after the US, so what was new and shiny for me had already started being old news on the interwebs. The big upshot of this was I got the International version, which the remaster is built upon. So got to play with the all Dark Aeons and such well before the rest of you.
