Actually you can easily play it through Remote Play on the PlayStation Vita (means life, look it up)

i'm enjoying 5 a lot mroe than 4 so far but the second half of 4 was what i didn't really like so maybe it does it again

I was gonna ask if you need to play X before X-2 but the remaster has both. But also XII comes out next week so I’ll probably go with that :thanks:

yeah, they added a Expert option in the European version that is part of the new rereleases that gives you basically complete control over party build. idk why it's called expert, but it makes the game a lot more fun

lol

You're pretty much locked in during the first half of the game in the original version, and after that, it becomes trivially easy to just walk around the grid using the Master Tonberry trick. I once got all the stats except luck on the grid to 255 and filled in the rest of the empty slots with HP, so the entire gang just had maxed stats. a version that's more customizable sounds fun

x isnt my fav. but the actual battle system was nice .. just the postgame was so grindy, all the characters look retarded, and all the areas are linear despite it being random encounters .. x-2 is much better. i would skip x if i hadnt already played them both

I like how X's battle system is based heavily on exploiting enemy weaknesses... it tickles the same part of my brain that Persona does in that way

the random encounters in X get really tedious at times and the English voice acting is awful for modern standards but it’s still great.

it's funny because most of them are actually pretty good voice actors so it virtually has to be the direction

wasnt that game the one where there was some insane technical limitation where the English voice lines had to be the exact same length as the Japanese ones

"like i care!" is the best lol line IMO. you can also kind of tell that they didn't know what to do with "nani" so everyone keeps saying "y'know?" constantly after like every sentence

everyone plays the terrible laugh, but it's supposed to be terrible, stuff like where tidus yells "how could you!! HOW COULD YOU!! she was like a sister to you!!" is funnier to me
