This game was boring to play.
Worse graphics then ff 10.

Everyone's faces look literally the same. Just copy paste their face to one another and see no difference.

Vaan's perma dirty face.

20 hours boring intro gameplay.

Lmao wth is this mmorpg combat.

Boring music.

Yawnfest story.

Gg noobs.

I'll admit that when I played it back when it originally released I thought it was boring, I didn't at all like the character designs, and I didn't like the world (FFTA turned me off of it).

The Vaan character especially annoyed me because I thought he looked like a much younger version of Michael Jackson after all the plastic surgery. Everytime I saw the character on screen I couldn't unsee that likeness, and it made me unable to stand the character.

I quit playing relatively early on and never went back to it.

Our tastes can change greatly over time though, making it possible that the impressions of the game from back when it released 12 years ago will not be at all the impressions we have of it today. The game is on my wishlist, and I plan to pick it up and revisit it to see whether how it struck me in my early 20's will be different from how it seems now in my 30's.

It may very well go unplayed if I find I still don't like it, but my suspicion is that I'll finally be able to add FF12 to the "completed" pile.

Yeah that's true.

I'm gonna try it out for two hours for the refund period to see if I like it.

When I played years ago it was boring to me.
Which version did you play? Original release or IZJS? Original release sucked but IZJS made it awesome.

Bought it when it first came out.

Vaan's perma dirty face. => Yeah, okay, Vaan is the weak point of this game.

20 hours boring intro gameplay. => You must be really bad then, cuz the "intro gameplay" is less than an hour long.

Lmao wth is this mmorpg combat. => What?

Boring music. => Maybe not the best of FF OST, but it is not boring. Boss battle OST or even Dalmasca Fields was awesome. Actually, most tracks were at least good. So... Wrong again.

Yawnfest story. => Opinions, huh?

Gg noobs. => What?

My diagnosis: either a hater, or a troll. Maybe (probably) both.

Dude all of them have squinty eyes and their faces are dead.


And the combat is like ff14 online where you auto attack on a timer. = mmorpg combat.

Your other points (except for the droning music) I can agree on

FF12 doesn't just have auto attack, you can automate every thing in combat and never do anything on your own. It's a feature of the game. Can't complain about your opinions on the art and such though, you get to decide what you like for subjective things.

Yeah I know about the gambit system.

It just felt like watching the game play itself.

Maybe I didn't get in-depth with the combat system enough though.

I'm not saying gambits are good, just that they exist. :P

My personal opinion is they might be a negative since there are so many outright slogs in ff12 where if you're playing manual it can be more than a bit tiresome, however, with gambits they're not that bad at all. That's kind of the modern Final Fantasy way it seems. Introduce weird new system, don't make it optional, build the game around it instead, get confused why people strongly dislike the game. :shrug

People on the X/X-2 forum asked for XII, others answered that XII is ♥♥♥♥, worst FF, even worse than XIII and XIII is pos they say. It's like the games are ♥♥♥♥, but when those come to steam they become good again for whatever reason.

I´m curious. You say it´s boring for you to play. Why do you want to buy it? It´s basically the same Game like 12 Years ago, just with some bells and whistles added.

No one really cares about you being bored of it, just don't buy it lol

Somehow I am having trouble believing you were even old enough to purchase the game when it released given the way that you express yourself. And if somehow you actually are in your mid 20s you certainly don't make me think that your opinion is at all valuable to judge the worth of anything.

To be fair, I hated coffee as a child, now it's one of my favourite drinks.

Age changes our preferences.

Nah just stating hard facts kupo
In order for it to be a fact, it needs to be back up wiith proof and evidence which you lack of so therefore it's just simply your opinion and a dumb one at that.

Damn I really triggered you huh?

Don't worry you're nothing of value to me too.

Make sure to type another paragraph refuting me Mr. Mature adult who still plays vidya gaems.
