I love this mini game. Not only do you learn the Jecht Shot which makes winning at Blitzball fall easier, it serves a narrative purpose in showing Tidus working to overcome his years of torment from Jecht.
love how it takes is nice and easy on ya when showing ya how to do it...then instantly 4 or 5 commands at same time...first time I did it I was like "this is not as easy as ya made it seem damn it"
Same, the first time i've played it like 14 years ago, i couldnt do it. It was impossible for my fingers. Now, years later, i was like bro this is so easy
@@thegatorhator6822 Na, I just think people play games in different ways. If you don’t want to skip the cutscenes, you don’t have to, but I tend to get bored easily so I’ll just drop a game if the cutscenes are long and not skippable. I only beat Witcher 3 cause I could just spam A in any cutscene and the dialogue would flash quickly, giving me a spark notes of what happened.
This scene is amazing. In Tidus' flashback, Jecht is being a cocky asshole. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > While later on Jecht said that he was being abusive to toughen up his son, his "you can't do it" was one of those terrible teaching methods of breaking people down to build others up.

The fact this was never changed in re-releases just proves that my suspicions were probably correct - the directions are intentionally misleading so you'd fail.
The in-game instructions are damn near flat out wrong. It tells you a button prompt will show up in whatever location, not a taunt. So you're just sitting there while Jecht yells at you with no button prompts like the game said there'd be.
I got it on the 3erd try! 😁😁😁 thanks! this is the first time I've actually done that I played the game back when it first came out for PlayStation 2, and I could never, ever get it thanks to this video I finally did it
The reason lots of people didn't get this challenge was because the prompts really screw you over by misleading you on what the challenge would look like. The game warms you up TWICE with the big purple box indicators then flips the script on you during the QTE itself. The terrible game design for this side challenge still annoys me to this day.
He kind of is, but that's the point. When he was the biggest blitzball star, he had an ego, he let fame go to his head, and allowed his superstar persona take over, not even caring to try and be a good dad. It was only because of coming to spira, losing that fame, becoming a guardian to braska, being humbled by him and Auron, that he learned what a bad father he was, and lived with regret. And when Tidas came to him inside sin and faced him, he was a changed man, proud of his son.
This has to be the hardest Playstation 4 Trophy i have ever unlocked...it took me a while to understand the button prompts for the jetch shot.it was not as easy as pressing x □ ○ or triangle.
The floor bosses of the New Vegas casinos need to have a few words with you. You are entitled to an opinion but it is a stretch to call a collection of QTEs the "Best minigame in all of gaming."
@@davejones2377 I was referring to blitzball honestly. But this was pretty dope and like the jecht shot was op. I think blitzball was better than early pokemon games.
Yes you just have to get the ball and pass to back and forth to Tidus tell he's level 3 then in the second half you can equip it and destroy the Goer's
@@lordbasilisk I wanna be more present honestly because this is truly something I enjoy I just have a hard time figuring out what the hell everyone else would want to see from me lol but I plan to talk about video games more like right now I’m working on something in regards to how I feel about RE1 getting another remake and how I fell back in love with Monster Hunter so I hope those are videos you’ll enjoy if you see them! 🙏🏽
That’s pretty much where I was at for a long ass time lmao and now I’m at a age where I just fully understand I love this shit fr like being able to make videos and stream on twitch is really cool and an amazing opportunity to be able to do it while interacting with people and I wanna do more of that while having even more fun with it
@@ALone-wc2oh yeah I finally figured it out Years ago I literally accomplished every single thing I could accomplish in this game other than winning a single blitz game. This playthrough that was my only goal and I finally did it
What a bunch of lousy instructions, suddenly some phrases started to appear, I tried to do what the tutorial said while I'm totally confused, only when one of the phrases dissappeared upon pressing o it clicked to me what should I do, still needed to see someone else's playthrough to see how it's done
This is not much help, IMO. Just a video of the in-game "tutorial" which is misleading at best. At the very least you could maybe point out that if he laughs at you more than once or twice then you probably missed too many QTEs. In that case you need to reload your save game to try again. You must hit about 11 QTEs to learn the technique. Try to take your time and don't mistake him laughing at you for a QTE prompt. I know the idea of taking your time is counter-intuitive, but I seem to make more mistakes when I try to hurry. Another tip is that you do not seem to need to hit them all or in order.
Not the least bit helpful though.....not to talk trash or anything but you could do this on your own with enough times. Just save before you start it. lol
@macerick2.0 I was just making a silly joke. At the beginning of Kingdom hearts 1 there are a few characters that look exactly like this. Same outfits, same ball. etc. Probably just square re-using a few assets.

I love this game. No matter how many times I play it, I always enjoy it like it was the first time.
TMWK me too so much ❤️
me too
I dont i thought that kind of frindship happen on ral life😢 i was totally wrong
Same ❤
This minigame is literally “Solve your daddy issues by doing this trickshot”
I love it
The worst part of failing to get the Jecht Shot is that you don't get another chance until after you beat Yunalesca.
howw ??
@@andrasudra6756 Go to kilika and ride the ferry, then interact with the ball.
I dont even know you can do that
You get another chance???
@@jii-el Yes. You have to come back to the boat.
love how it takes is nice and easy on ya when showing ya how to do it...then instantly 4 or 5 commands at same time...first time I did it I was like "this is not as easy as ya made it seem damn it"
I haven't gotten jet shot in all my years of playing and I finally got it thank you
But this didn't actually show anything. He just does it without instructions lol
Same, the first time i've played it like 14 years ago, i couldnt do it. It was impossible for my fingers. Now, years later, i was like bro this is so easy
Love this game, but good god am I glad the days of unskippable cutscenes are behind us.
Jason Rooster yup lol
nope, you are wrong, cant skip on the nintendo switch
Edgarv68 your dumb none of the versions have iy
Cutscenes absolutely should be unskippable the first playthrough. Subsequent playthroughs however...

I still love this game!
'You can't do it kid, I'm the best!' (Player 1 does the jecht shot)
I messed up the first time because the prompts misled me so I just sat there confused doing nothing lol. So I just reloaded and got it then 😂

2002 was the first time I tried. I failed miserably.

Yeah, it’s not hard but the instructions aren’t clear as they could be.
I can see why people didn’t get this.

After so many re-releases, it's probably intentional. Tidus failing is probably the canon route of the story.
Yeah I just sat there feeling stupid like I must have missed something.
Why couldn’t they have done like the prompts in god of war? This is so stupid.
I just get it. It took me whole walkthrough five times to got this shit.
All I got was 1:52 "YOU CAN'T DO IT, YOU CAN'T DO IT, YOU CAN'T DO IT!!"
Edit: added a timestamp.
YOU CAN'T DO IT KID
Took me 3 tries, but I got it!
Owyn Hammersley the annoying part is having to go through the whole cutscene again after retrying.
I didn't understand the directions until a few seconds later, but it was too late.
Same
Same
Same
Yeah the instructions are really bad. To the point I think it's intentionally misleading you to fail.
i swear to god i never swall the sparkles indicating to press the side x etc.... and i never got instructions... what is this???!
I still play this game and I like it a lot
It’s a sick game for sure
@@SquallNoctisGUX time goes by fast when I get into this game 🎮
when i was younger this was alot harder than it actually was XD
I have no idea why people are having so much trouble with this mini-game i beat it first try and i loved it
Mmmm. Doing that on ground Sure was different compare to doing it in the water.
But Tidus is more dynamic in water. For example, see how he runs so slow.
Yann Dardanne mmhmm
First time I played this game, I thought Jecht was an asshole
He is
He kind of is, but that's the point. When he was the biggest blitzball star, he had an ego, he let fame go to his head, and allowed his superstar persona take over, not even caring to try and be a good dad.

JEEEEEECCCCCCCHHHHHHHHTTTTT SHOOOOOT~~~~~
0:28-0:37 looks the Charlie Brown football gag 😂
I completed the shot right but still dont have the jecht shot..
You have to get to level 3 in blitzball to equip it
@@callmeshaggy5166 But in the PS2 version you could use it right away...
This has to be the hardest Playstation 4 Trophy i have ever unlocked...it took me a while to understand the button prompts for the jetch shot.it was not as easy as pressing x □ ○ or triangle.
I failed this the first time I tried it and didn't realize what I missed out on.
The best part about missing out is……. You got another chance to come back and get it out the way 💪🏽
Best minigame in all of gaming.

@davejones2377 don't compare fnv to ffx. I love both but this minigame was just special.
jecht is the best
+natoer lawyne still waiting a game with him as the MC
The best at emotionally abusing his son I guess.
They give time in-game to download into background or choose to enjoy them
Welp i missed it,no choice but to retry when i get the airship.
In his flashback he is in Luca
I always haded hard time doing the jecht shot. But I keep trying
Ok so if I complete it will it be available in the first tournament after the battle to get Yuna back?
Charles Kraiza Yes
Yes you just have to get the ball and pass to back and forth to Tidus tell he's level 3 then in the second half you can equip it and destroy the Goer's
Dan Backslide that’s for sure. But you get one shot so
Make it count
I wish it says to destroy the quote causr i just waited
Tidus is 1000% based for dunking on his abusive father by saying "Anyone can do it."
He was real af for that one
@@SquallNoctisGUX You really replied to an ancient upload for this? You're the real one.

I'm confused
The words pop up at different places on the screen at the same time?
I don't know which input comes first
You gotta be quick. Input them as they pop up. Try & be methodical. The most important thing is don't panic.
Focus.
@@ALone-wc2oh yeah
I finally figured it out
Years ago I literally accomplished every single thing I could accomplish in this game other than winning a single blitz game.
This playthrough that was my only goal and I finally did it
What a bunch of lousy instructions, suddenly some phrases started to appear, I tried to do what the tutorial said while I'm totally confused, only when one of the phrases dissappeared upon pressing o it clicked to me what should I do, still needed to see someone else's playthrough to see how it's done
*I AM THE BEST*
Im the best.
I resonate because Jecht is just like my dad.
FINALLY I GOT IT!!!!
LETS GOOOOOO
I hate this mini game i never able to it 😡
Finally able to do it idk if i got lucky
What a terrible QTE that doesn’t make any sense.
This is not much help, IMO. Just a video of the in-game "tutorial" which is misleading at best.
At the very least you could maybe point out that if he laughs at you more than once or twice then you probably missed too many QTEs. In that case you need to reload your save game to try again.
You must hit about 11 QTEs to learn the technique.
Try to take your time and don't mistake him laughing at you for a QTE prompt.
I know the idea of taking your time is counter-intuitive, but I seem to make more mistakes when I try to hurry.
Another tip is that you do not seem to need to hit them all or in order.
You can't do it, you're out of your league, I'm the best, no one else can do it!!!
Most janky mini game I ever played with how misleading it is
Not the least bit helpful though.....not to talk trash or anything but you could do this on your own with enough times. Just save before you start it. lol
This is a copy of Kingdom Hearts CutScenes!!!!!!!!!!
What cutscene send me a link
@macerick2.0 I was just making a silly joke. At the beginning of Kingdom hearts 1 there are a few characters that look exactly like this. Same outfits, same ball. etc. Probably just square re-using a few assets.
@@ZeranZeran If you mean characters like Tidus and Wakka appearing as kids in Kingdom Hearts, that's intentional. KH originated as a Disney x Final Fantasy crossover, so if you're familiar with FF you'll be seeing quite many familiar faces.
