He is. Tidus is the only one who knows, and he's not going to rat out the person who saved his life. Auron knows she's an Al Bhed, and Yuna requested her to be her guardian after having a private conversation.

For anything you can criticize the games story on, that's not it.

If you don't catch on to the fact that only Tidus sees she was in the robot (and it's easy to miss that if you're too busy going 'oh boobs') the whole thing comes off as weird. Even if you see that, it's still really awkwardly presented, but I mean what else in FFX isn't.

Was that underwater zombie dragon I just fought supposed to have a big ol' action setpiece where you escape from it? The huge amounts of empty tunnel suggests there was.

Cause uhh, don't make your boss undead if you want to do that. Maybe they were counting on people not bringing a sensor or scan with them?

I'm now done with Bevelle. Is this about the halfway point of the game? It sure feels that way, although I'm approaching the ultimate abilities on the grid a lot faster than I thought.

I'd say Bevelle is a little over halfway through the main plot but the rest of the game can take much longer depending on how much you'll use the airship following Zanarkand.

If someone says it one more time I'm having Florina show up as a corpse. I'm not even kidding, I was pissed off with people doing that shit back in 2010, and I'm not dealing with it now in 2016.

You can do that battle by using action commands to bring him into the final chamber, OR, OR you can do what literally everyone in the world did and just phoenix down the zombie dragon.

Yeah, I say "Shit" a shit-ton of times. What of it, shithead?
If I remember right theres a few chests and a save point around the area leading to the end too, plus Sensor and Scan outright tell you about the healing damage. It's supposed to be a thing where you either figure out "Oh wait this thing is dead let's toss a x-potion at it", or not figure that out and think you need to run away and miss out on it's drops and the chests, plus the opportunity to save.

I just picked FFX back up again because I finally got the PS4 version, is there a way to transfer my trophies over from PS3 or am I going to have to start over to get them again?

I'm currently working on getting ultimate weapons and master capturing every zone (finished Calm Lands, Cavern of the Stolen Fayth, and Bikanel Island last night :toot: ) and then I'll probably have to start working on the Dark Aeons? Is there anything specific I should try to shoot for while getting ready for that or should I just keep getting tons of levels on people?

Also do I need to fill in all the empty spots for the trophies that want you to complete sphere grids and if so what's the best way to do that?

I feel like I have a lot of work to do but I love this game so I think that's ok :shobon:

I think it uses the same trophies set so as long as you synced the ones you had on PS3 they should carry over.

quote:

-The game isn’t set in an open world where you can freely go wherever you like. Since there is a main quest, the more you progress, the more places you’ll be able to go.

-The action isn’t very difficult. It’s an RPG through and through that everyone can enjoy. The game will have difficulty settings, which will be discussed more at E3.

-Cars are faster than chocobos.

-On putting out an Ignis’ Cookbook: “If you’re in publishing, by all means make us an offer.”

-You can’t control the boat. You can control the camera, however.

-There aren’t just 10 songs from previous Final Fantasy games to listen to in the car—there’s an abundance of songs to enjoy. Since there are law restrictions and such per country, being able to play your own music in the game is a difficult thing to implement.

-In response to “Why did you develop this game for 10 years?” Tabata said it’s not like they decided from the beginning that they were going to develop the game for that long.

-You’ll get a “Game Over” if you fail to land the car from flight. It’s not that difficult, though.

-There are many parts based on the real experiences of the staff. Some of it is also influenced by a trip to Europe that Tabata went on in his 20s.

-Tabata attributes Noctis drinking Ebony in Brotherhood to the behavior of a young person drinking coffee to be cool, since Noctis says he hates it in Episode Duscae.

They are actively making this game worse. I'm throwing up in my mouth as we speak (for reasons unrelated to the article).

He says landing the car is not difficult, but I feel like we will still hear many stories of car crash related game overs.

Nomura: I wanted to spend at least 10 years on this thing. I really wanted to juice it, make people wonder what the gently caress we were doing. I wanted daily status meetings for 2500 days. My life is hate and I wanted the team to feel it through to their bones so that it informed every aspect of this game.

There's been a whole bunch of speculation around an HD re-release of FF XII International Astrology Edition, but I don't think SE has actually come out and said anything besides, "That'd be neat!" At this point the only main games not on Steam are the first 2, of which there are phone ports, so they could definitely do it. I'm kinda suprised they haven't talked about bringing over the iOS versions of the DQ games, considering how well they were received.

You know.... "you."

Concidering that a minute and a half of context tells you that Yuna's narration is here talking to TIdus (either in the general "talk at the grave of a loved one" sense or the literal "He's back after the (Bad) 100% Ending" sense) her using "you" is perfectly fine.
