| From what I've seen people either hate it because of how Yuna's personality changed, or because of the all-girl party. I think it's one of the better FF games, with the best battle system in the series. |

| Because its cool to hate things? Hate is a strong word that I feel people are misusing. Ramblings aside, x-2 was the first one I played. Although, personally, I enjoyed X more. I think that people tend to hold something in higher regard if its the first time they've experianced a particular feeling, AKA nostalgia. I can say though, imo (i actually replayed both x and x2 last month), the reason I liked x more could because the change in the mood from the traditional ways and morals of the story, and x2 with its, well I wouldnt say unorthadox, change. I think people did not like the change. I can't be very specific because there many possible reasons. Some of them, unjustifiable. |

Personally, I actually find it to be one of the best FF out there for many of the reasons previously mentioned. Though I find the story to be more lackluster than the one in X. |

NoSurrender1690 said: why all the hate for this game Because the game was so "tongue-in-cheek" humor, that it made sane straight men gag and vomit their internal organs. "We're being purposefully flirty and girly and making references to Charlie's Angels." The game didn't take itself, at-all, seriously, and it shows. God... awful. If you're going to make fun of yourself, at least do it briefly and intelligently like Metal Gear Solid 3, where Snake pulls off the Raiden mask, and has the James Bond-like theme of "Snake Eater". |

| How do people get to 2000 hours when I'm already this bored? |
| I actually preferred X-2 over X. |

| Probably a lot of people feel the characters were butchered from the characters they came to love in FFX. I was personally turned off from the designs, but I should give it a shot. |
| Personally, I thought X-2 was great, out of all the games in the series with the job system it's probably tied with V for the best. I can't decide which one I like more, I like that fact that you can mix and match job commands on V, but I like the fact that you can change jobs mid-battle in X-2. |
| FFX-2 is the video game equivalent of a bad ecchi anime, you're better off playing more superior titles like Senran Kagura, Criminal Girls, the Japanese version of Monster Monpiece, and Seisou no Amazones also older titles like Pia Carrot and every version of Steam Hearts except for the Saturn version are superior to this. |

| It's a good game but.... Fcked up Final Fantasy 10s ending. |
 |
| Gameplay was good. Story was shit. Made FFX's ending seem pretty pointless. |
 |
| I personally loved the game. Very fun. |
| As much as I enjoyed FFX-2... the hate is justified. While I enjoyed it I can't defend it. It gives you no real motivating plot, and you don't feel like you're impacting anything for a very long time. It almost feels like a giant side quest. And some guys feel emasculated playing dress up with a cast of all females. I already feel emasculated, so I'm immune to that. I imagine women might feel objectified as well, idk. |
| the idea that the entire world of Spira would recover from FFX and develop a party culture in just 2 years didn't make sense to me. I don't like that they sexualized Yuna and Rikku (especially Rikku). It feels like they were just trying to sell rather than make a good story. That said, I think FFX-2 is better than most people claim it is. But the vibe doesn't really match FFX. If you removed Yuna and Rikku it never would have occurred to me that FFX-2 was a sequel to FFX. It's not a bad game, it's just not a good sequel. |

I would also add recycled environments, monsters and despite that FF X didn't actually have any amazing dungeons, the ones in FF X-2 are terrible copy-paste hallways. All of them. Then we have minigames, most of which are clunky and unplayable as per JRPG tradition. They somehow managed to even ruin Blitzball (though I'm not sure if it was actually ever that good). The job system is nice, but sort of useless at the same time. I never had a reason to switch jobs mid battle, since everything outside some special bosses and maybe the last boss falls way too fast. The system is good, but the actual battles are not. If I had to compare it to weapons system, sphere grid and the best summon system in the franchise in FF X, I'm afraid that the dress sphere system simply loses out. It even loses out to the one in FF V in usefulness. |
| I didn't hate it, but I can see why people would. It didn't really feel like an FF game at times... |
