One of these days FFXII will come to PC and we can all talk about how it has the best dub.

Baal posted:It's very possible the voice direction was to once again imitate the JP Voice Actors and Japanese Yuna sounds about as bad as FFX Hedy Buress. Also, it's FFX Yuna and it's very possible she either decided to be true to what the character sounded like at that point or the ADR Director was given specific instruction to make her sound like she did back then. From what Kuja's VA said (of the vocal direction in Dissidia), it's likely. Although the returning cast for Dissidia 012 ended up sounding less stilted than the first, so go figure that one out. Unrelated, I curse you Baal, you baka gaijin, for making me bite the bullet and looking into this Jojo thing...And now I'm completely loving hooked. You bastard.

Hey it's their world, don't judge man. I tell ya what, if Japanese shrine maidens all went around with thongs riding so far up their rear end they may as well not exist and skin tight leather shirts, Shinto would still be the main religion in Japan I tell ya what.

Even better, what the hell is the thing the kid on the left is wearing? A full body skirt with cords that comes up to just below the nipples and is kept up with some weird wrap, that's what. That screenshot is screaming that Spira needs a break from Sin to get their fashion in order.

Yuna must be treated like a freak of nature considering she's one of the only people in Spira who dresses in a way that makes sense in the real world.

Hey now, Dona was awesome. She was clearly made to be a foil to Yuna. Vain where Yuna is humble, combative where Yuna is meek, common where Yuna is more privileged and, yes, dressing in a thong while Yuna dresses modestly. I think Yuna used Dona as her inspiration for X-2.

I'm reaching a point where I can actually pay attention enough to pick out a bad Japanese performance and so I'd usually rather just listen to it in the language I can actually understand.

I liked pretty much all the costume design in FFX and it was cool that at least some thought was put into how the different populations of Spira might dress. The only questionable choice to me is Lulu, who on a tropical island of colorful inhabitants looks like a dominatrix complete with leather straps and chains. I know she's a black mage and everything but I always thought they could have chosen a more tasteful way of representing that.

Welp, only the Yunalesca fight to go and then it's off to the FFX endgame grind of doom.  Some of the worst is behind me already, because I did the chocobo training on my first visit to Calm Lands and completed the lightning dodging totally legitimately and not at all by cheating with an autohotkey script (the guy who made that deserves a medal), but there's still plenty of butterflies and blitzball and cactuars and other bullshit to look forward to. I mean I could just ignore all of this like a sensible person, but where's the fun in that?

If you already cheated to skip the Lightning why not just skip everything else too Edit: my phone autocorrected Lightning to the capital because it must know where I'm posting

Something I noticed replaying FFX is that even without the final summoning, Spira was already getting pretty good at kicking Sin's rear end. The first summoner to defeat Sin was Yunalesca some 1,000 years ago, then there's a gap of 500+ years before anybody kills Sin again, but Sin has been killed three times within the last 50 years by the time you reach the end of the game. Maybe even without Jecht/Tidus' intervention Sin would have eventually become something that flares up every now and again, like the flu.

In Training posted:If you already cheated to skip the Lightning why not just skip everything else too The lightning dodging is the only FFX minigame where I've straight-up tapped out because I find it impossible to complete. Yes, I'm sure it's not actually hard and you just need a little patience, but in a game filled with mind-numbing busywork that minigame takes the cake. At least retrying the chocobo race doesn't take much time (it actually took me only three or four attempts to get the sigil on this playthrough, I had far more trouble with the wobbly chocobo game), and you're not just sitting in a dark room and reacting to flashes for half an hour.

I used autohotkey and left it alone for 45 mins. The minigame is so notoriously unfun that I don't feel any guilt in skipping it entirely. Frankly, the cheatiest thing about it is getting a stack of Strength and HP spheres so early in the game.

Plus even if they are, they're still sacrificing summoners to do it and perpetuating the cycle.

Knowing what we know now about high fantasy terrorism and Jecht being Sin, maybe the Crusaders should have built a giant Blitzball mine that even Sin couldn't resist kicking.

Expert grid just gives you more options. Original one just kinda slots everyone into a specific role at the start, while expert is more open. It would be hard to gently caress it up unless you make like 6 thief's or something.

Not a Children posted:Did I screw myself by picking the expert grid, or is it more forgiving than it appears? It has a smaller total number of nodes, which only matters if both: - You plan on stat-maxing (save yourself now) - You plan on using Break HP Limit (which you never need to do, and since most healing is capped at 9999, there are reasons not to) and thus your HP stat-maxing needs to be 10 times higher If you don't plan on stat-maxing, or if you only plan on stat-maxing up to 9999 HP instead of 99999 HP, then it doesn't matter in the long run. Just make sure you have characters going down different paths for versatility and ability coverage.

(and I regret nothing)I'm aware of the crater trick and might try it at some point if I'm extremely bored and have nothing but my PSVita with me, but I'm playing on PC now and noticed someone had made an autohotkey script, so I went "gently caress this" and just cheated. There's still plenty of punishment in store for this playthrough.
