Post Prompts
- Do you think the game still stands the test of time?
- Where do you rate this game among others in the franchise?
- Is there a piece of music that stands out for you?
- If there is one thing you would change, what is it?
- Do you think they should have left it as a single game? Or should they even make a third?
I loved FFX, I think it still holds up, and it is still in my top three of favorite games of all time.
The Zanarkand piece of music stands out to me as really beautiful. But I love the whole soundtrack and have listened to it many times.
I do wish it had a New Game+ :-)
I actually loved the sequel, FFX-2. So when I first got it and started playing it, it got to the part where it introduced Dresspheres. And I was like “WTF?” And put the game back on the shelf for over a year.
My sister got into the games and I decided to give the game a second chance and play it together. I loved it. So weird, and the dressphere system is actually pretty cool.
