ff10 stupidly short!?

Macceh^ · May 30th, 2002, 03:42 PM

well is it?

IcyMourdor · May 30th, 2002, 05:04 PM

Well, it took me a good 50 hours to get everything. It does seem shorter because the game just has a smooth flow.

Sword 4 Hire · May 30th, 2002, 06:50 PM

It's very long if you go for all the side missions

Sleazy P Martini · May 30th, 2002, 07:01 PM

By the time I was finished, I had over 100 hrs in it. Of course I spent a lot of time exploring and leveling up my characters.

Infernal Mass · May 30th, 2002, 10:54 PM

If you want it to be yes FF10 can be short, i take my time with most every game i play. if i feel i'm going to fast i start over..kinda odd, but i think of every game as a sort of experiance. I like to enjoy them, unlock everything etc.

Beretta55 · May 30th, 2002, 11:03 PM

hey i have had it since it came out and i have not beaten cause i dont play the game alot.

happy_doughnut · May 30th, 2002, 11:38 PM

Yeah, like Kabuki said, it can be if you want. However, if you do all the sidequests and stuff, it'll certainly take you much longer. It took me a good 100 hourse to get everything. Of course, because I spent so much time leveling up, the final boss died in 2 hits. That sucked

Macceh^ · Jun 1st, 2002, 11:20 AM

aye i take my time to but i just heard of alot of reviews and mates that its extremely short.

How could that be? Braska has two forms, you could kill his first form in one hit.... But the second one has 120,000 hp and i thought the strongest attack could only take 99,999... Right? That would be 3 hits... lol, i'm an idiot.

happy_doughnut · Jun 1st, 2002, 05:15 PM

No...well, I don't know

Maybe it was 3... my point was that it died was too fast! It was a big dissapointment. *thinks* All I remember was using Auron's Tornado attack, and Tidus' Blitz Ace and it was gone...tsk tsk.

RufusFF7 · Jun 1st, 2002, 05:22 PM

Haha... i'm too lazy to build up my characters, ad complete all the sidequests... So the battle with braska's final Aeon was a tough one for me... I had to use Anima and the Magus Sisters to beat him... If it wasn't for them i would lose. The hidden summons were the only sidequests i went on.

Lost_myth · Jun 1st, 2002, 07:00 PM

i'm lazy cause i don't feel like playing cause i'm stuck and all

jenova_jeb · Jun 2nd, 2002, 06:18 AM

It's not any shorter than the other FFs.

RufusFF7 · Jun 2nd, 2002, 10:46 AM

Well it takes a shorter time to go through the whole story than most FF's, but it makes up for it with lots of sidequests n stuff... and ya gotta get some secret stuff and build up your characters if you wanna beat the final aeon, so i would agree that FF10 is no shorter than the other FF's.

Lost_myth · Jun 2nd, 2002, 04:48 PM

I couldn't manage to beat that blue butterfly side thingy, when you are going to stop yuna from marring Seymour. What was the treasure for that anyway?

BlackThornn · Jun 3rd, 2002, 01:44 AM

It's not any shorter than any other FF if you do every side quest availiable.. I think the main factor in having people think it's short is the fact that there is only one disc. We've grown too used to having our epic Final Fantasies chopped up into easy-to-identify segments that FF10's smoothness caught us all off gaurd.. IMO this isn't exactly good, but hey. I'm just kind of a traditionalist when it comes to stuff like that.

MODERATE SPOLIER!

..It might not have been "stupidly short"... but IMO it was stupidly depressing. A sad movie is one thing but after you put all that work and time into the character you want to see stuff work out, damnit.. >_< That is what annoyed me and turned me off from replaying the game and stomping the hell out of it. The seeming futility.

Lost_myth · Jun 3rd, 2002, 05:03 PM

The graphics are amazing. I'm sure you'll love it. It's a little stupid at times because of the characters, but other then that it's just fine. Enjoy!

Are you talking about the voice acting.... Cus yeah it was a little weird at times... But of course that's gonna happen cus it was square's first try at voice acting and it's a long game to put voices to.

Ive had a four cd boxed set of music from FFX since last summer, its some of the finer game music ive ever heard.

That's cool... But, where did that come from... It's off topic.

Actually no, was referring to how they laughed strangly. But the voice acting was ok. Their facial expressions, I wish were better.
