Nor do I, but as I mentioned earlier, they're running out of excuses not to do it. They just need to say "We don't want to do it. Stop asking."

I suppose it counts for something that II, V, VI, VIII and IX haven't been included in this yet. You can't really say the first FF hasn't since Dissidia was its prequel.

I'm actually really surprised they haven't tried to pull something out for VIII. I mean, I'm not a fan, but VIII still has a really nostalgic base, Squall is called out as one of the most popular protagonists (in Japan), and I remember reading one poll that it beat VII in people who wanted remakes (at least, it's a Japanese poll). I suppose the release in VIII is something.

I'd rather have a VI sequel, but it doesn't lend itself to another game, with all the magic gone. VIII actually has an opening with Rinoa being a witch and all.

Of course, this is barring the fact that I'd rather have an original IP than a sequel. But I'd rather have both over a remake of any game. With maybe the exception of the Chrono series.

I'm not so much annoyed with the Tidus/Yuna de-pairing (though it does annoy me) as I am with the idea that they're going to bring Sin back and make the endeavours of the first game effectively meaningless

Like, the point of the first game was to make Sin fucking go away for good, you can't just renege on that shit for the purposes of a sequel

Though the more I think about it it would be hilarious if during the timeskip, Yuna and Tidus had gotten together, had a child, and Tidus being the chucklefuck he was kinda skipped out on priorities and they had a divorce

And so the entirety of X-3 is "they got together again! but they didn't really. Or did they? But mostly they yelled at each other a lot. And there was a son/daughter in there somewhere"

Whoops there goes my headcanon running off again GET BACK HERE YOU

Another summary from a neoGAF user:

Originally Posted by dramatis

So my Japanese is pretty shabby but here's some of the stuff that fills in a few blanks here and there, hopefully I'm not listening wrong somebody please check.

Kurugum is a '送儀士' as Yuna calls him, I'm not sure if this term was used in 10/10-2 but think it means he's a Sender (since summoners are 'summon'-ers, nowadays there's nothing to summon but people still die and require sendings, so presently there are Senders).

Chuami harbors resentment towards Yuna, most likely because of the Auron father thing and also because Chuami actually dislikes Yevon, and Yuna has been doing nothing but praying at the Besaid Temple to a fayth that no longer even exists. Chuami thinks it's bullshit.

A second shoopuf has appeared at Moonflow. In FF10/10-2, the shoopuf at Moonflow is supposed to be the last of its species, so the mystery appearance of a shoopuf who happens to be quite close to the last shoopuf (a sphere of them is described in the audio) is a bit alarming. Thirty years ago the last shoopufs were a couple, but one of them died. My understanding is that Chuami and Kurugum ask Yuna (at Baralai's request) to investigate, and then go Bevelle to meet with Baralai about it. When Yuna refuses, Chuami uses Tidus against her, saying that Tidus is in Bevelle and he seems to be injured, which immediately sparks Yuna's worry.

Yuna agrees to go after consulting Wakka and Lulu, who also come along.

The fayth are acting weird. What fayth normally show are memories or just images of dead people. However, at the Moonflow the traveling crew witness a fayth image respond to a child's question like a sentient being. The child begs her mother to come back, and the mother answers in affirmative.

This later relates to the reappearance of Sin at Bevelle, implying that someone wished for Sin to come back.

In any case, when Sin reappeared, they realize the problem of trying to defeat Sin when summons no longer exist. Wakka and Kurugum defer to Yuna, waiting for her decision on how to handle the new Sin, but like an airhead she says amidst all of this that she must meet Tidus.



So Chuami's pissed and she decides to eavesdrop on Yuna and Tidus. Who happen to be having a lovers' quarrel while Sin runs off like Godzilla I suppose.

At this point Kurugum tells Chuami they will have to part because he has to go with Yuna, that Chuami won't understand because she's not a summoner. Chuami is confused, throws her hands up and tells him to do what he wants.

Chuami heads back to Besaid. Tidus also goes, to ask Lulu about the new guy that Yuna likes. Lulu tells him to go find the guy himself.

At the beach, Chuami wonders aloud where the summoners are; Tidus answers that they must go 'there' (I think he's implying Zanarkand?). Chuami asks him if he's okay with being dumped for that, to which Tidus replies, "We made a promise to be together forever."

Chuami thinks he's full of shit, but doesn't say anything because Tidus is clearly doing a really poor job of hiding his pained face.

At the end, in a stadium setting most likely (from the sounds of crowds and cheering), Yuna promises the people she will defeat Sin.

Creating a Sin is very easy, you just need stupidly strong gravity magic but I can't see how it would be able to sustain itself without a core.

All I can say is to all the things Tetsu said and with regards to my feelings in conflicts in Spira:


Here we go again....again.

I haven't really played X-2 so I don't know the specifics but

If Tidus can become reality through force of will.... then it stands that Sin could too.

The only slightly disturbing part is that Tidus came because twuwuv or something like that. Why would anyone want Sin back, and want him back with that intensity.

And why would the creators want Sin back. Sin was great because he was this omnipresent unstoppable, unknowable force. He was so intrenched in the mindset that he set the pace for the entire culture, people had religions and practices centered around him. I've had nightmares like him, a strange force that comes and just destroys.

Reintroducing Sin would not have that same effect. The people have already comes to terms with what Sin is. They've moved on technologically. Even if Sin really does send the world back into a panic, society evolved. Sin would have a weight to him but they wouldn't be the same. It would make more sense if they introduced another villain instead. It probably is that whoever wished for Sin back is the villain, for whatever reason.

It looks like Yuna and Tidus aren't really apart, not really together kind of thing. It's confused because Yuna is too passive and Tidus is a moron, which is pretty consistent with their characters and I guess if you are going to go with "they aren't together anymore" that's one way to do it.

It still doesn't sit right because of how their relationship has been consistently portrayed but whatever.

It could just be setup for a new book. Nojima seems interested in those these days.

I agree to a new book or new medium via films or a series is fine, I would love to see Spira in a mini series format but come on man...Breaking the couple up after we grinded so hard to get them together. Square treats our efforts in vain mannnnn.

The fayth brought Tidus back at the end of X-2. Their wills are what hold his pyreflies together.

Okay I'm going to be a bit of an idiot now but...

As much as I do not want a third game, now that there IS new content, I want it to be a game instead of books, etc. I just think their games are quite better than their books and if I am to know the story, I would enjoy it better through a game.


Ugh, my head hurts.

Well I love FFX and I'm fine with the idea of a new game... and I love the part about Tidus and Yuna breaking up but it looks like that's not QUITE what happens... I'm sure they'll get back together...


So
...

Is Nooj gonna be in this? Cause Nooj is kinda awesome and no one's talking about him... and shame on you all for that. I wonder if he and Leblanc will be together... kinda weird that that's the first thing I think of but.

Anyway curious to see where this goes, especially how they'll defeat sin without summons but I'm also wondering if Auron will return.

Hmm, apparently the new FFX novella has sexual contents :monster:

Also
Tidus might be an Unsent :monster: So Yuna is like eww no now. Or something

This seems kind of familiar :monster: Or like Squeenix is channelling something :monster:

While I've never thought about that type of stuff when concerning Tida/Yuna

I always wondered what happens if a dream guy knocks up a non dream chick or what happens when an unsent makes a kid.

Really.....WTF

am really annoyed with this news... Tidus and Yuna no longer together (wtf was the point of x-2 then god damn it!) Sin is back? HUH didnt we kill that thing in the first game (first game now pointless lol)....why have they done this lol.


I think it is save to say by the end of this x-3 (when it happens) Tidus/Yuna will be together again for sure (repeat of the first game am guessing, they will slowly fall back into full lovers again..if not then maybe they will finally kill of tidus for good LOL) but yeah the whole point of of the first two games just became a little less inportant lol.


Oh and about the FF7 remake /-2.....that will only happen when sqaure have no other choice or are in such bad debts that they need to make some quick cash lol.

There's a lot of comments about how much feel bad for Tidus, and that Yuna acts really cold towards him. There's a few saying they hate Yuna in the novel. There's apparently a lot of sexual stuff in it. There's a scan of one page in which Tidus tells Yuna he might lose if they get into battle because he's distracted by how sexy she is. And apparently Tidus gets his blown off by a bomb and dies (and only 2 days after getting resurrected), but he comes back to life again because he's made of Pyreflies, and Yuna has control over him.

This has to be troll ... right? Somebody here get this book! :smashedmonster:

It has to be troll I mean ... Tidus
gets his ... blown off by a bomb? Does that mean what I think it does? He gets his ... blown off by a bomb! Really!? Don't know if I'm just being dirty minded and taking this too literally or something ... but I can't help it, everyone is talking about sex and stuff :monster:

(please tell me I'm not the only person who read it like that :puppy:)

Hito!? :sadpanda:
