Playing this after FF15 is like night-and-day in terms of characters, world building, dialogue, and story.
Tidus and Wakka's friendship, as one example, felt real. It wasn't a forced boy band anime road trip. It felt like a real friendship that actually happens in the real world.
Where the fuck did it all go wrong? When will SE learn to write believable characters, a good story, and a good world again?
Dylan Reed
SE can not make a good FF because all the good devs left after the merger. They can't even properly remaster the ones that Square made.
Jonathan Carter
>Praising X's writing Have we really fallen this far?
Jace Peterson
It's more of an testament to how bad FF15's writing is.
Noah Morris
I'll take half baked plots and mediocre bromance over a well written but annoying MC, his racist friend, and five blocks of wood.
Nathan Phillips
How's that shit taste treating you?
Xavier Bennett
Then you have shit taste? Not sure what to say.
Samuel Thomas
I would say 15 had better writing than 10.
Carson Reed
>believable characters, a good story, and a good world again? >FFX
Mason Cruz
>Tidus and Wakka's friendship, as one example, felt real.
The fuck are you smoking? The guy took an interest in him only because of his blitzball potential and after that there were never any great interactions.
Luke Barnes
do you actually think the remasters have been made in house by square enix japan ? They threw that trash at a random russian or chinese company and they rushed it for a quick buck user
Adam Foster
15 had more believable characters than 10 ever had, 10 was just anime tier characters.
Camden Harris
>after that there were never any great interactions.
???
I don't think you've played the game all the way to be saying that
Asher Myers
Either way it has their stamp on it, they made it. Paying developers to do your work is a simple concept.
James King
well this thread is killed already
Hudson Young
holy fuck i was going to buy the remasters finally because X is my favorite FF, is this fucking for real?
Luke Walker
Reminder that Tabata fired the writer of Versus and replaced him with a fujoshi with zero credentials.
Reminder that all Tabata games have been failures.
Henry Harris
yes
Cooper Thomas
well yeah, when you say belivable characters you don't say ff X
Blake Sullivan
Is there a mod or option where I can play remaster but with the ps2 graphics?
Easton Wright
OP, now play FFIX. You'll realize just how much FF has crashed from its greatness.
Luke Gray
Why not?
Joshua Myers
>Placing that fucking trainwreck of a story higher than competent but lacking writing. >Telling other people they have shit taste.
You may as well tell me Sword Art Online is better than Caddyshack while you're at it.
Brody Gutierrez
>holy fuck i was going to buy the remasters finally because X is my favorite FF, is this fucking for real? The "HD Remaster" was made for the PSVITA and then ported to the PS3, the PS4 Remaster looks somewhat better (it's still based on the Vita port though).
Charles Williams
The game was remade by shitters and the Vita version actually looks better than the PS4 version you dumbass.
Justin Wright
Because everyone except Tidys, Jecht and Wakka barely qualifies as a character, and even Wakka's pushing it.
Like said, Wakka drops off hard after the tournament ends. He's a bit relevant through Operation Mi'Hen because he's carrying the Al Bhed and Machina subplot, but he really only serves as comic relief after that point.
By the time you flee Home he interacts with Rikku more than Tidus and it stays that way.
Aiden Russell
>fired He was already working freelance for years by then. Besides, would you really trust the guy who wrote X-2.5 to not retroactively shit on Versus' story too?
Jack Rogers
Can't see him doing worse than a fujoshi with no credentials whatsoever.
SE is a fucking mess. It's fucking criminal how much they've mismanaged FF.
Ayden Phillips
You obviously are shit at reading characters. Wakka and Tidus didn't feel like real friends at all.
