Now to be fair, one shot hentai manga is the most powerful form of literature available to us

Just watched the whole thing. You did some incredible work man. I LOVE FFX, always have, but I couldn't find myself disagreeing with most of what you said. I think the combat/sphere grid came down to personal opinion for me, as I liked both of them but yeah the story is pretty garbo, with everything you pointed out here.

I got FFX when it came out, and HATED it.

41:00 beside the kiss these 2 had I legit couldn’t find any romantic moments these 2 had and the laugh and whistle isn’t romantic more like a friendship

I enjoyed X's combat, but I will admit I never felt challenged. It had the basis for something more exciting, but it never went far enough for it. As far as story and characters go, it's a shame it wasn't just focused on Jecht/Auron/Braska. Would've been sick. A sick sausage soiree.

I actually like ffx, mostly because it is my first ff game, but i do prefer 5 and 6 to x

Agreed FF10 sucked hard. It was the beginning of the downfall of final fantasy games.

there's one major gripe i've always had with ATB, in both, turn order is determined by typically an Agility stat. if you have 11 and your enemy has 10, you go first. if both have 10, then who goes first is usually determined by RNG...except in ATB, the enemy doesn't have a menu to navigate, leading to an unfair disadvantage.
