I think it being the only decent RPG on the PS2 at the time really helped colour my opinion of it. Not that it's crap or anything, it's a superb game, just not deserving of the praise it gets. After a slow start I'm really rather enjoying it. The plot is a bit strange. Sin has an awful habit of appearing and then moving the characters conveniently along to the next plot point. The acting is way worse than I remember. It's not the actors fault though, it's very obvious the lines were recorded individually so there was no context to what they were saying and nobody to act against. It also takes a long time to get going, although not nearly as long as FFXIII thank god. I can actually see a lot of similarities between it and FFXIII and it's fairly obvious the developers used FFX to inform FFXIII development, although they did it extremely poorly. FFX has a rather long tutorial phase just like FFXIII (although not nearly as long). However once you get to Besaid in FFX you have pretty much all of the combat options open to you. In XIII it takes hours before the player is given any control. FFX is very linear, just as linear as XIII but the areas are rather short and very well paced. FFXIII on the other hand is really poorly paced and dungeon areas are far too big. It's interesting to see how a few little changes like the pace of the game can be the difference between a great game and a poor one.

Just like when I played this back in the day I totally forgot to do the destruction sphere in Besaid temple and I can't go back in until Dark Valefor is there. That means if I want it I either Zanmato him or level up such a dregree that the rest fo the post game content is a walk over. I can't get Anima or the Magus Sisters now which are a big help in the end game content. I only looked this up since I'm getting near the end game since I got to Bevelle. Thanks for reminding me why I hate the Dark Aeons. **** it I'll stick with it, I was meaning to finish up all the end game content in this playthrough.
