However, I equally recommend the gameplay of both X and X-2, especially their superb turn-based combat. It’s a much less endearing experience, though luckily there are more than enough good moments sprinkled in to make it worthwhile. I wish I could lavish equal praise on X-2 (which follows Yuna’s adventures two years later), but just like the first time I played it I found myself rolling my eyes at the silly story and muddled direction. It’s a near-perfect blend of action, drama, humor, and romance that throws together memorable characters like the cheerful blitzball player Tidus and the kind but determined Summoner Yuna. Play Even having played Final Fantasy X several times before, I still found myself spellbound by everything that happens in the story.
