No, it was a bad game. Probably the worst in the entire mothership franchise.
Definitely the worst.
*AHEM* I'm just going remind you of FF13.
And I will remind you, good sir, of X-2.
Unless you're not counting the direct sequels. Then I'd just have to point you in X's direction. At least XIII let me see Snow get punched in the face by Lightning; in X, Tidus doesn't even fucking stay dead.
BRO! BRO! You wanna play the sequel game bro?
Okay! I'll take you X-2 and I fucking raise your ass a 13-3 Lightning Returns! Check and MATE BRO!
Dude, Lightning Returns was waves better than XIII or XIII-2 for that matter. Also X-2 has the best combat in series history. Took everything good about ATB and made it better.
Can you send me some of whatever it is you're drinking?
Well, the drink is called 'good gameplay', so I'm sure he'd be happy to share! I mean c'mon, X-2 brought back the job system via Dresspheres, and the international (and now the western rerelease as well) had the fiend training tournaments! I find it hilarious when people say X-2 was one of the worst games in the series just because it looked 'too girly' on the surface or because it involved looking for the 'whiny asshole' Tidus. It's like they forget what character development is.
Lightning Returns was weird, though. It tried to pull an even more complex Job-esque system with one party member and lots of bits and baubles, but that just got... weird. Especially with some of the DLC. XIII-2 is where it's at, because that one had an almost interesting story alongside some rather fun time travel shenanigans!
Too bad Motomu 'Lightning is mai waifu' Toriyama insisted on Lightning have a final go at things. I thought Serah and Noel made a great duo. Caius had some real potential too, especially given the fact that he was a villain that actually had things go his way for once. I mean, his plan actually succeeded! Made for a cliffhanger ending, but I was hoping they'd go all FFVI on you and make the next game be a grand globetrotting journey through further broken bits of time with Serah, Noel, and whoever else they drag along.
Nope. Always Right-ning Returns.
