(Never finished X-2, this just applies to FFX)
One of the few FF I finished. Visually it's a treat, and while some of the cast can be annoying, they're generally pretty good, with Tidus and Auron being a highlight. FFX has one of my favorite battle systems in the entire series, being a traditional turn based system where turn order is dependent not only on agility, but also on the actions commited in the battle. Couple that with the unique Sphere Grid replacing traditional leveling and you have some very solid gameplay that doesnt get old.

I have completed X which is one of my fave FF games of all time a few times. This version let me get that lovely content I never got a chance to play on the ps2. Still stands to this day in my opinion and a wonderful FF game for people to play. I have yet to play X-2 which my girlfriend has told me to play many times. Soon enough I will.
Played X for the first time in 2020. Quickly became one of my favorite JRPG stories. Although the story is cheesy, there's something nostalgic about the writing that made me not mind. Some of the tracks in this game are so memorable and great. I really wish this game had better voice acting, it was hard for me to take seriously at times. As for gameplay, the battle system is great with a great progression system for characters, but the dungeons have dated designs and haven't aged well in my opinion.
X: Engaging story with satisfying reveals, inspiring narrative themes, and beautiful soundtrack. It's a shame the gameplay was so slow-paced. Although some characters felt a bit bland, their interactions felt truly genuine and I think that's the most important. / X-2: Less interest in this one. I'll still remember the 1000 words concert (moved me a lot) and the "sad" ending that felt more accurate to what FFX wanted to achieve imo.
Final Fantasy X is one of my favorite games of all time. I can't compare it to the FF series since i've only played 7, 7R, and X-2, but FFX is definitely the best out of the ones i have played. The music is fantastic, both the original and remastered soundtrack, the gameplay is lots of fun, the sphere grid especially was an interesting mechanic, and the story and characters are WONDERFUL, with Tidus, Yuna, and Rikku being my favorites. The end of the game has a bit of a difficulty spike, but once it's overcome, the game continues being fantastic. P.S. it's TEEDUS, not TIEDUS!
