  • Re: What games are you currently playing?

    Side quests I remember were getting the three optional summons, ultimate weapons (all of which I got save for Wakka's, because Blitzball was the shittest minigame SE ever cooked up aside from Gummi Ships), Omega dungeon (requisite if you wanted to get break damage limit items, I think) and Monster Arena.

    Considering how lackluster FFIX was for sidequests (and Tetra Master being horrible), FFX didn't have it that bad on extra content. But in retrospect, perhaps it was not quite the side quest behemoths that FFVIII and FFXII are known to be.

    Mini-games were actually better in FFX-2, except Blitzball was still shit. Slightly improved shit, but still shit. It had a better spread of sidequests, too. I still need to go back and kick Trema's ass.

      right, Ultima and Omega I haven't done. I got a couple Ultimate Weapons, the others look like too much of a PITA due to aforementioned crappy minigames.

      I don't even care that much about having extra content; it's not bad as it is, but it could just be so much better without having really put in any more effort. I mean, what do those chocobo training things add to the game? And if you have to add minigames, why must I master them in order to get equip?

      I mean, holy shit, imagine if SE put relic weapons in FFXI in chocobo racing or gardening or something.

        FFX was a joke in terms of difficulty. Even Nemesis Weapon is a complete pussy in the face of Yojimbo and/or fully upgraded characters (Max Speed Stat is EXTREMELY important)

        In fact, Tidus can practically attack an infinite number of times if his speed is maxed and you use Quick Attack (or w/e it was called). I liked the game over all and thought it was pretty bitching at the time, but looking back on it... meh. Blitzball should get it's own freaking game already with online play. It was only fun if you didn't get the Jecht shots as they are really, really cheap.

        My biggest gripe with the side quests? The thunder plains. That was some epic bullshit on SE's part, second only to FFXII's Zodiac Spear. Gotta dodge 100 lightning bolts consecutively without any random encounters and without pausing the game or zoning. Oh and did I mention how ridiculously broken Yojimbo is? (Magus Sisters too)

            I loved Blitzball too Mal. One of the best side games in a game ever.

                FFX was fun, Blitzball sucked.

                Playing (in addition to FFXI) Disgaea: Hour of Darkness.

                    Blitzball was the reason I never finished FFX, I got so wrapped up in Blitzball that I forgot about the storyline lmao.

                    Anyways I'm playing Fallout 3 for PC and I'm gonna try to get back into Disgaea 3 for PS3.

                      ok, I can understand enjoying blitzball... but loving it? Did someone go around giving people free lobotomies?

                      Also, am I really the only one that saw the Zodiac Spear as a joke, not something they seriously expected players to figure out? Although I'm pretty sure there's a secondary way to get one, anyway.

                        I forgot about X's story too, after getting into blitzball.

                        Maybe a few control/engine tweaks and more teams/players and it would've been a nice game on it's own. And 100 times better than Tetra Master.



                        Hmm, now that I think about it that probably would explain why I spent so much time playing Z-ball on Dead Space.

                          There is a secondary way, but you have extremely low chances of getting it from the known method.

                          Not touching Treasure Chests until a certain point in the game? Much easier. Its not like enemies weren't dropping gil and items anyway. Even in your 60s and 70s, Necrohol of Nabudis is no joke.

                          I have the Zodiac Spear, its a beast with certain pieces of gear, like Genji Gloves.

                            I'm currently swaping between Fallout 3 on PC, FFXI, and I really want to get back into The Witcher. What a great game, I'm going to regret not beating it soon if I have to start all over.

                              I'm playing Dragon Quest 5. Unfortunately I feel asleep during my treatment and the nurse turned my DS off and I lost a lot of progress. LOL
