FFX-2 poll!

I've been thinking about doing something like this for awhile, and finishing the replay gives me the perfect excuse. One of the downsides of FFX-2 is that so much of the best content is buried, easy to skip in your rush to hit all the hotspots (and I would just like to reiterate my best advice on this: if you're playing FFX-2 to get as much story as possible, save the hotspots for last whenever you can), and I've often wondered what the implications of that are, in terms of what people know. So, to that end: a poll!


[Poll #1084965]


Very interested to see how this comes out! I do, however, request that you not flame the game in comments -- flawed or no, I happen to be very fond of it, so if anyone comes out with the burning hatred we aren't going to get very far in discussion. Thanks.

For some reason I could never trigger the events to get Gippal's Sphere, even with a guide. And I accidentally hit that I've gotten the "Bad" ending because I went all clickey-happy and checked all the boxes XD

I swear that the people who think the game really sucked only did Hotspots. The game definitely has it's redeeming qualities in the character development, even if the plot itself is a little shaky and can get a little cutesy with all the "girl power!" moments.

That and it did provide me with my OTP *waves Yunalai flag!*

You can change your answers. Just click on the link at the top and then choose "Fill out Poll".

Yeah, I don't love the game for the plot, I love it for the world and the characters. But like I said in the last post, so much of that develoment happens through the Crimson Sphere sidequest and other sidequests, so I can understand that someone who missed chunks of that might not "get" it. That said, I know of at least one person who got a near complete game and still hated it. Tastes differ, and that's cool.

Oh, and it probably goes without saying, but: I'm so with you on thanking the game for bringing me an OTP ;)

Oh yeah, you wrote the Kissing Meme thing! It was a very nice little piece, sorry I never commented on it.

You haven't written anything else Yunalai? Because you should ;) The world needs more!

Well see I have like 9057350753753315 pairings. And I don't write much sometimes cause I get busy at work (or doing NaNo like now). But I think I did write a Yunalai once.... maybe it's sitting on my harddrive. ODDS ARE GOOD OF THAT. Right now I'm trying to fill the world with more Leon/Cloud for yummy holiday presents. Of sexiness. Mwahaha!!

But I shall, and if I ever actually get one written, I'll let you know!
