Video games basically peaked here, it's all been downhill since

Gen 6 was the last great gen. All 3 (4 if you include dreamcast) were the peak in game variety and quality for each manufacturer

Shit zoomers say when pretending they're older than they actually are
10 started the downfall of the entire genre by killing overworld

>suddenly boomers like overworld games
You faggots never actually had any criteria for judging games other than old good new bad

he never said he likes overworld games he said ff games used to have an overworld map you retard. Zelda games used to have an overworld too, that doesn't mean they were open world slop botw style

X is my favorite Final Fantasy. I’m playing through it right now.

how do you guys tolerate the gay character designs, shitty minigames, spine chilling voice acting and the game being a long hallway?

>gay character designs
the chara design is fine, I'll take it over everything that came after it
>shitty minigames
depends which one
>spine chilling voice acting
wasn't worse or better than other games
>and the game being a long hallway
it's one of its biggest issue but still tolerable, I was more disappointed in the extremely repetitive bestiary

Post the imagine where some special ED kid asked his mom to take a photograph if him in sea water

How the hell can you look at the hallway dungeons, crappy Cloister of Trials puzzles, and god-awful side quests in FFX and go "Yeah, this is peak gaming"?

Then again, most people casually played through this shit and more than half didn't even beat the game.

Absolutely. Studios actually had soul back then-fewer live service scams, no mandatory 300-hour Ubisoft checklists, and devs made games because they loved games, not just quarterly reports. The creativity in that gen was unmatched. Every game felt like it was trying to do something *new*. Now they just try to survive launch patches and cash shop backlash.

this game is better
