The FF series storyline borrows so much from Japanese cliche's including ones created by previous FF titles that it really places a damper on the overall enjoyment of its delivery. The writing (though perhaps due to translation) is subpar to a degree that I would guarantee that it would not even be considered as a mediocre book or movie if it were released in that format. The series needs much better translation and scripting and more original plot devices.

Final Fantasy X is the better game but LO is still great. Especially in Disk 3 where the pace really picks up

It does? I haven't played it for months because the second disk is soooo slow. The battles take ages lol.

Yes, though the cutscenes take much of the time on Disk 3 but the cutscenes have lots of action and lot of fighting in them

I second that, I actually stopped playing for a while in disc 2, but disc 3 is miles better

It's not like American cliches are any better. How is the writing subpar? I am not an expert on writing. FYI, FFXII had a great localization but it was just a disguise for a weaker than usual story. How do you distinquish bad writing and good writing?
