Onion Knight Wrote:1st, IX. I remember liking pretty much everything about this one, the settings, the characters, the story seemed to flow quite nicely and didn't seem too contrived, even the games version of Triple Triad was an absolute joy to play, you could challenge random NPCs if they had cards to play with and could unearth some epic cards off Random Citizen 6. Really felt like an actual part of the world rather than a simple tack on for the collecktorz. Spent so many hours collecting the cards, seems a shame I never actually fully completed it. Want to replay again just incase my rose-coloured starry-eyed nostalgia goggles are lying to me.
2nd, III. Simple story, fairly 1-dimensional playable characters since anyone could be literally anything and could do everything, but very playable and just a lot of fun in general. Played the iPhone version which meant unlocking the Iron Giant didn't require the sending of messages through Mognet, in all other respects it is identical to the DS version. 80 or so hours to get all my guys to level 99/9999 HP and beat this one in its entirity.
3rd, X. Must have liked something about this one since I sunk 22x hours into it. Unsure what to make of the story in this one and despite it being similarly engrained into the environment I never particularly liked Blitzball. Settings were also quite nice in this one. I bet most of those hours were spent farming cash/items in the Monster Arena so I could beat all the extra enemies or trying to find the ultimate weapon for every character. I wanted to do it all without paying that mexican summon (forget his name) tens of millions of Gil just so he's use Zanmato.
Thread seems to be in general leaning towards IV-VI and XII, coincidentally ones I haven't played. brbplayingwhenican
Yea that last part about 10 i remember paying him somewhere around 5 million and he used his fucking dog then dismissed himself when i paid one gil the next turn.
