Overhated Games
X-2 wasn't that bad.

Not only was it that bad and dumpstered everything good about X, it was the last game Squaresoft ever made and it's been a perpetual Squenix horror show ever since

X-2 isn't even that hated. it was controversial around launch, but opinion of it is generally pretty high

Pissed me off that Yuna and Rikku threw away their youth to keep adventuring instead of starting families, but other than that I found it funny that *of course* girls get power from changing to different clothes.

As far as the actual gameplay itself went it was pretty decent. And it was interesting seeing the setting again and how things had changed post Sin. But the story was pretty average and the characters got annoying. My only regret though was insisting on getting the 100% completion in a single run as the payoff wasn't worth it at all.

Fuck yeah. Ghoulies is such a fun game. It was the game that opened my eyes to the fact that journalists and reviewers were fucking retards. Incredibly underrated game. I'll take it a step further: Nearly everything Rare put out under Microsoft was great up until they got put on Kinect duty. The only exception being Perfect Dark Zero. That was just ass.

It's funny how the general consensus is that Rare went to shit once they went to Xbox. Rare was great on the N64. Rare was great when they made DKC on the SNES. They had some okay at best games like Battletoads and Snake Rattle & Roll prior to that. But prior to the N64 Rare was a horrible company. So many fucking turds. Most people don't even realize that so many of the LJN games the AVGN reviewed were actually Rare games. Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Taboo: The Sixth Sense, Nightmare on Elm Street, Super Glove Ball. The list goes on. It's hilarious that people claim Rare fell from grace when they have always had such a rancid, atrocious track record. There's an inspirational message buried in their inadequacy, though. You can make shitpile after shitpile, but as long as you persist and make something worthwhile eventually, your legacy is saved.

Look for yourself if you don't believe me:

For me rebirth and ff16. Although I think I overrate games that have good music and both of these have a legendary soundtrack

It was a good idea to show how Spira would change in a post-Sin world. 2 years wasn't enough of a time jump though. The problem with the story was making Yuna the protagonist. It would have worked a million times better with Rikku as the lead and another new character alongside Paine. X-2 Yuna just straight up isn't even the same character. It wasn't character development, it was just lazily slapping the same name on a completely new character. It should have been the story of Rikku going on a noble journey for the sake of her cousin and lost friend.

It might be overhated, but every FF videogame is bad. The only reason people like 7 is because Aerith died and it shocked them as a child.

Its biggest crime was being too easy. They put in a kino job system but nothing challenged you to actually use it.

is X-2 turn-based like X? I tried out all the final fantasy games a few years ago and really enjoyed them but I burnt out by the time I got to X and held off on X-2, was wondering if it's worth a go

its an ATB system
im biased to liking x2 but after replaying it recently i think its vastly, vastly inferior to X and not really worth it
the dress sphere system looks really cool but it is fundamentally not fun
i wish it were

No. It's ATB like the ones before X, much to the games detriment.

active time like final fantasy 7? where the enemy turn will happen even if you decide to do nothing? If it's like that I'm cool with it. I just didn't want to play some action heavy like FF13

Biggest problem is the unyielding giant bosses that that dev team is infamous for (the giant lobster you fight twice in the Pinocchio stage sticking out the most) in a game with finite playtime limits for each character. There's a good amount of "damn it, this is why I like this series" elements in Dream Drop.

Has there been a new FF game in like the past decade with hot girl main characters? I don't follow the series that closely but i think like at least the last 2 or 3 main entries have been groups of bros being dudes and nobody gives a shit about them, other than the FF7 remakes.

XIII had Vanille. Lightning was not hot and Fang was literally a dude that was changed to female in a last second decision with only minor design changes.
XII was the last non-MMO FF with a full complement of hot girls. So nothing since the PS2 era.

Yeah I looked it up, 13 feels like a billion years ago. 14 doesn't count, 15 dudes, 16 also dudes (dude). They need a new front runner with a hot female lead. Lighting was good though, game was forgettable though (I don't remember it at least)
