The joy of the person who never changed his accessories lol I'm teasing and crashes happens when you use mods instead of the original game without mods 😂you can't challenge god

lmfao

Carbuncle is the cutest little GF ever! Sorry but this video had me 🤣

Long time no see Rex, hope everything is okay after the Hurricane and so. Finally I'm able to watch your playthorugh as I just finished the game and I didn't want to get any spoilers, it's late but... at least i'll be able to watch your reactions now :) I'm looking forward to catch up on your streams before you end the game! Cheers!

cant you just pause the game when you need to think of your next move?

😂😂😂

Im thoroughly convinced it was more your copy and the tech issues that took the fun out of it for you. I completed this game at the age of 12. And while I'm never gonna sit here and tell you it was so easy, i will say i was 11 when i started and it took me about 8 months cause of school and stuff but i got it done. The gameplay is not that difficult once you get the hang of it. But honestly, maybe the gameplay just wasnt your thing and thats totally fine. I do hope you give it a second chance somewhere down the line. Preferably with the Switch remaster or something else. I really convinced you would have enjoyed it more had you hadnt had so many issues as you went along. But oh well. On to the next thing I suppose 🙃

JRPGs used to be NOTORIOUS for their balance issues (wild difficulty spikes, etc)... Don't blame ya!

Man you nailed this reaction. I saw your FFX-2 I finally can't stand this game reaction, and man does it not just sploog all over this game. Not you, the FFX-2 game. It just jerks off on everything great about FF10 and tries to grab at its namesake for the money. You made it through the great part just to try to endure the worst part. 10 was meant to be 1 not 2. They took Yuna and tried to make money off her. It's sad really. Love your stuff man!

If your not having fun then stop playing it. I have not played it on Steam. I played the original PS2 version. And I don't know what people are talking about the game is not that easy even back then and while the battle system is cool and the best part of the game it can also be frustrating at times. I never 100% cleared the game because of how obnoxious it is to do and the game robbed me of it and I the official guide to the game too. Sounds like the new version got tweaked somehow to be even more obnoxious. So yeah if its stressing you out this much just stop playing. Charlies Angel's shouldn't be that stressful lol

hahaha first time huh :D

FFX to FFX2 its like Best Final fantasy to worst Final fantasy.

It’s not hard it’s super easy but it’s really bad

Not to be that guy, but I have a few tips if you want to give FFX2 another chance. 1, rotate quickly to all dresses so the blue outline connects the dots to get the massive stat bonuses. 2, in doing so, you can also use the ultimate dresses for each character by pressing R1 after opening the dress swap menu again. 3, you really only need to grind dark Knight and white mages. Darkness deals massive damage to most enemies and bosses 4, run if enemies feel over powered. The balance can get weird sometimes.

Pay FF 9 a way better game than this one

Honestly, I don't understand the miniature's face.

Agree with all you said here, while VII is better overall, X ending is just goated, it feels like the entire game was built around the ending.

I have a bit of sympathy with the chat's position about spoilers but I think in this instance telling you the next step in the process is NOT a spoiler; telling you what the outcomes are would be. Irvine's entrance is STILL the coolest intro to any video game character ever.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

And if you worried about items and how long it takes to use. Get 2 alchemists and and a dark knight alchemists will reduce the use of the items by 80%

I’ll he said that as a joke but girls actually make money from fart asmr this days 😂😂😂😂

The og only fans

I wonder if 10-2 on steam is using a more difficult international version like 10 remaster. I feel like ff5 has the best job system in final fantasy.

I was thinking that it looked pretty bad. Would love to see you play FF tactics or Saga Frontier!

Respect 100% I always say this: FF 10 was my first in the series and i loved it. Felt like the game for me. Then i tried FF 12 and i didn't like it at first so i went back to 10. Then i came across its sequel and i hated so f'ing much that i went back to FF 12, which is now my favorite Final Fantasy to date and i haven't touched FF 10 since. That's how much damage FF X-2 did to me. So yeah! Respect!!!

Bad game is bad

I don't blame you in the slightest. It's this version of the game. ​​​VII all the way to X-2 are easy games in their original states, more akin to Pokemon. You needed to simply attack cure and know some basic status effects. Repeat. And buy the latest weapons in shop, fill out their abilities, consistently. Done. Starting with XII, you needed to really dive into systems just to beat the games. The hard stuff was only ever in side activities, it was simple but great game design, it gave the series broad appeal. I'd argue the modern FF's are far harder in terms of gameplay, VII remake for example needs you to be on the ball far more the OG and not just because it's partially action. Every game nowadays has been influenced by the Souls games even subtly. It's kind of disrespectful to the original devs how they rebalance stuff like this to appeal to more modern mentality. FF should feel like a not taxing vacation. Its a big part of the appeal to me. It's never been a snobby "get gud" series, part of the appeal was getting overpowered due to finding secrets in the world and levelling masses of enemies. And there was multiple playstyles to achieve all that, all as good as each other.

Black Knight trio spamming darkness can get you to the credits at lvl 49.

I’m fully convinced the steam remaster is broken. I am not the best at games and I have been in awe at your ability to breeze through fights that I struggled with in other games. I remember blazing through the game and thought it was easy on the PS2. I’m blown away at your play through - I don’t remember enemies spamming attacks or struggling to heal like you did. I watch your streams bc I enjoy watching you play the games I also loved playing. It’s even cathartic watching you get annoyed and frustrated at the same points I did. This wasn’t that. This was watching you play a broken game. It’s miserable for everyone. I don’t do horror so I will be back after Silent Hill. I hope you come back to the rest of the FF series.

I do have advice for beating ifrit equip a garment grid that gives everyone fire eater problems solved since ifrit is fire

Even cheat mode hp, I died from a faceless void silver enemy. Means you are going to a wrong path or thinking that you are overpowered.

Maybe the accessories you were using were rubbish

I still say that you are underleveled I went on KZbin and looked at a t a friend's walkthrough exactly where you quit and they were 53% through the game 43 hours into the game and level 45 dress speres trainer berserker and dark knight just comparing

Oh thank god I wasn't the only one struggling. I've felt like it was just me the entire time! I was hoping to get back to it soon though!

you made it passed the intro?

So sorry you couldn't get through the game. I've always found it a lot of fun, and I don't stick to a particular set up - as you say, the fun is in the variety of dresspheres and switching between them for different situations. Dark Knight is AMAZING, though! And the Mascots. I was interested in watching this series after FFVIII - joining your streams is both a timing issue and the fact that I don't use Twitch. But if a game isn't working for you, for whatever reason, you shouldn't feel you HAVE to play it.

Come on man I beat this game at 13 years old lol

This is one of the prime reasons FFX was far far superior to FFX-2. I still enjoyed FFX-2 but yea I much prefer traditional turn based battles and FFX is a masterpiece where FFX-2 is more of a side game. At least you got to experience the original FFX and finished it. It was the one that mattered.

its almost as bad as crisis core

I cheesed the heck out of 10-2 I spammed their special forms till the end of the game It was absurd considering I was like 90-something percent complete with the game. I had a hard time believing people easily played through it. This was back on the PS2, never touched the game since.

Rex i feel you on this game, i cant tell you how many times i played this game, stopped, went back, stopped, went back and finally beat the game to never play this again. The mechanics and design feel like the player is constantly at a disadvantage (and even while grinding and ap farming for hours) it sometimes hardly makes a difference. Its a hard pill to swallow; it's an aquired taste for gamers. It's hit or miss. I played it once, beat it once, and havent touched this game since. Its one of those man. Every time i see people mention 100%ing the game, i pray for them and their sanity. No idea what the developers thought about this one.

The whole 2 attackers and a healer is just a base line for people to get accustomed to the battle system. Gradually, the player could start branching out, using skills, etc and mix things up. Honestly, I didn't use healer that often when I played. 3 attackers can usually bum rush enemies.

That game is one big pile of 💩

My man can't handle the battle system, downloads a broken mod to try and get around it and it breaks his game. 😂😂
