Make fun of it all you want, but I really liked X-2 and the dress sphere concept

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago

Still the best implementation of ATB they ever did.

I genuinely did, either. Not actually making fun of it. Everyone hated X-2, and there I was seemingly having a better time with it than with X!

I hate X-2 with the burning fury of a thousand suns, and I'll still praise the combat.

Oh? Whys that? (And what did you think of X?)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

I hated X because I found most of the characters sans Auron and Lulu to be incredibly obnoxious.

X-2 just made those problems worse by largely getting rid of the few characters I could tolerate, and somehow making Rikku even more annoying.

It says something about how good the combat was in those games that I managed to power my way thru X and a fair chunk of X-2 before it just got to be too much for me.
