    Too many dialogues, too many quests, uninteresting characters and dialogue. Game-play is thoroughly boring.
    If you think all of this mindless time wasting sounds fun, this game is for you. Everyone likes and praises it although it is crap...

    I liked it first, but it's gameplay is thoroughly boring. It has very nice, even memorable scenery, story is ok, characters can be fun at times, but mostly quite infantile.

    It's very obvious, this game is built around grinding. Grinding for items, grinding random battles again and again, against the same 3 or 4 enemy types.

    One of the mini games let's you dodge lighting 200x in a row, with lighting every few seconds, and dodging with a keypress. Or, you must swap in all characters each battle, even if they have nothing to contribute, otherwise they receive no experience, and stay underdeveloped for battles where they must fight. When exploring the streamlined story areas there is hardly anything to discover, only some chests are hidden from view, due to the locked camera.

    If you think all of this mindless time wasting sounds fun, this game is for you. But really, consider viewing it as a video.    … Expand

    I've previously played XII, XIV, and XV on PC. This is by far my least favorite.

    Besides the bland, overly youthful faces common to JRPGs, much of the dialog is banal. Combat varies from overwhelmingly boring to overwhelmingly difficult. It gets less fun as you go on... and it goes on a LONG time!

    Choose one of the later versions (XIV is multiplayer).

    FFX

    While instantly aesthetically displeasing and having bad writing and bad voice acting [really campy b-movie level], it really did seem like it was an 8/10 early on. As the game goes on it becomes more and more abrasive for many reasons. -The random encounters are all rock paper scissors fights where you hit really heavy and so do they, so you have to manually heal your party    FFX

    While instantly aesthetically displeasing and having bad writing and bad voice acting [really campy b-movie level], it really did seem like it was an 8/10 early on. As the game goes on it becomes more and more abrasive for many reasons.

    -The random encounters are all rock paper scissors fights where you hit really heavy and so do they, so you have to manually heal your party after every single battle

    -They hype up this big sports game in the story, then when you finally get to play it, it is a rigged match made for you loose badly in, and then instead of that mattering for the story like they hyped it to, the game disappears into the menu at save spots as an optional minigame

    -there are very annoying puzzles with unnecessary menus that pop up anytime you want to do something

    -There are very few enemy types, they get reused often and in the same exact combinations

    -There are very very cheap enemies that can wipe out your entire party before you even have a turn later on, making them harder than bosses

    -the protagonist is exceedingly dumb

    -a sex scene happens completely out of no where with no lead up romance

    -there is a race of people who speak a different language, and you find books that teach you one letter each, and you never piece it together. You are supposed to combine the letters your friends have found on the same game system by combining the save files. So you go through the game watching all this dialogue in a different language annoyed that you can't understand it and are missing parts of the story.

    -the airship in this game is unusable

    -they didn't bother to lip-sync the characters to the english audio

    -an entire level where you have to constantly be on edge for lighting to hit you

    -and you can't skip cutscenes

    This last point brings me to where I quit. After a 5 minute long cutscene, I was faced with a boss that killed one of my party members before I even had a turn, and then later killed them all in one hit. When you get a game over, it doesn't offer to reload from the start of the fight or the cutscene OR your last save file. It goes back to loading the main menu. You have to click through to prevent the opening movie to play, load your game, walk back to where you were, and sit through the same poorly written, poorly acted cutscene again, only to face the same poorly designed boss.

    I truly do not know why this game is highly regarded, I am more disappointed in the community than the game.

    FFX-2

    At first it seemed pretty cool. I could play through as a giant crab if i wanted to. The job system is cool. I love their goth friend. The way they tease each other is funny and lighthearted. But the more I played, the more sloppy the design became. I went to a place with a mission, it didn't tell me where that mission was, eventually I encountered a red "go there!" arrow on my mini-map, and when i went where it told me, there was nothing to do there. So I tried another mission and it involved going through an entire level you already went through in FFX just to have someone run away so you have to backtrack through that entire same level again, all with random encounters. This is a sloppy mess.    … Expand

    I am a big fan of the FF franchise, but the gameplay and the random fights are no good compared with FF XII, FF XV and FF XIII-1. Also the soundtrack and characters are shallow compared to the successor games.

    I didn't like any of these 2 games, the worst of the saga in my opinion.

    I particularly didn't continue playing, I searched spoilers in the internet and that saved me.

    The premade characters are not my taste, and the story seems like something for a girl.

    Simply put, Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster is the most complete package for one of the most celebrated entries in the series. Not everything included has stood up to the test of time, but the sentiment of the whole being better than the sum of its parts describes this HD collection perfectly.

    After the console versions (PS3, PS4, PS Vita), this new porting of Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD is definitely the best one available. Whether you love it or hate it, this is the version you need if you want to (re)play the adventures of Tidus and Yuna.

    Final Fantasy X - X/2 HD Remaster finally comes to Steam in a very complete edition with a reasonable price: a must have for every lovers of the saga that haven't played these masterpieces on Sony consoles.
