    Been off of JRPGs for a tick, too much if a time commitment recently. But I started up Final Fantasy X. First time playing it, and since over the last couple of years I’ve gone through 7-9, it’s about time I work on 10.

        I hope so as well! So far of the original 3D FFs, the only one that was disappointing was FF7, so I’m hopeful. So far I enjoy the quickness and easiness of switching between backlog characters in combat!

          Yeah it’s pretty smooth that way you can adjust on the fly.

          What happened with 7?

            I just didn’t enjoy it. I understand and appreciate all the things it did for JRPGs and pushing them into 3D as well, but playing it for the first time it just… was not good, in my opinion. I suppose the story beats that were meant to have impact didn’t since those have long since been spoiled, and controlling it was really difficult. All in all, I wouldn’t play the original FF7 again. I’ll probably give the new ones a try at some point.
