This is a unique experience from SquareEnix, I personally enjoyed Max as a protagonist alot, the time rewind and time travel theme was really cool. The story is amazing I was shocked at the villain twist. There are a lot of mature themes that some people might find disturbing but it is what it is. This game is not meant for those who played the walking dead and are accustomed to the action. This game is more story based, it is like watching a movie where your choices shape the story. Overall the script was spectacular and this game really had me emotionally invested, an amazing unique experience.

I loved the story and characters in X so much that I couldn't wait to play X-2 and see what Journey Yuna, Riku, and Paine would have. I was surprised to see how different this game is than the original, both the gameplay and narrative are different and maybe that's why most people don't like this game.

Is the Story good : It was enjoyable, had great humor, and a nice conclusion to some of the characters. I just have this MAJOR criticism, and it's about the RIDICULOUS Perfect ending requirement as it needs 100% Story Completion, and to attain that on the first playthrough it's pretty much impossible without a guide. Even then it's still difficult, lots of things that can be missed. But the Good and Perfect endings wrap up the story very well for Yuna.

Is the Music good : It was alright, not as GOOD as the 10's music, but its nice.

Is the Gameplay good : The gameplay mechanic for X-2 is based on dresspheres, which are equipable and changeable outfits with different abilities, I liked it myself. But another criticism I have is the ANNOYING Trophies like defeating the boss under Bevelle, "Via Infinito" is an ATROCIOUS dungeon, 100 Copy Pasted Floors with some good bosses in it.

Overall, it was a great game and people who couldn't handle the depression after X's ending, then you should go for the GOOD ending, which has a few missable steps. X and X-2 are games I will never forget, absolutely amazing Final Fantasy games!

X-2 LAST MISSION is a complete joke of a game, the gameplay is horrible, and only reason you'd climb 80 floors of generated nonesense is for the achievements. You can just watch the cutscenes on youtube if you're not a trophy hunter... The story is nice but not worth that gameplay

I went into this game with so many great expectations, this game is praised so much, some even say it's the "Best RPG of all time" while I simply think it isn't entirely true. But I can understand where they are coming from, it's a heartfelt journey with a really well done love story.

Is the Story good : Yes I think it was amazing, the connection the characters had, the journey they endured together, it was awesome. Especially the Underwater Date Scene

Is the Music good : Of course it is, the music reflects well on areas, characters, and story moments.

Is the Gameplay good : HONESTLY it was not that great, they even added Boosters and Cheat Unlocks in the Menu, it just shows how grindy this game is, it has the outdated RPG gameplay with random encounters and inflated enemy HP bars. So don't go into this game expecting exciting gameplay.

Overall, if you are an avid Final Fantasy Fan, or want to get into the series & experience a great story, then you should play this game for sure! Probably will cut down your playtime if you disable random encounters.
