This game ACUALLY changed my life! I was a coldhearted and close minded little asshole of a teenager when my best friend talked to me in a playing this game. I know it sounds silly but this game tore me up and broke me down. Especially the ending, I never cried so hard in my entire life and was able to release a lot of built-up anger and hate that I had in my heart. It literally changed my worldview, I don’t know who I would be today without it!
You and me both
That's beautiful man.
And People say that games are making Kids agressive. Looks like it depends on what games are you playnig. I love all FFs and I can surely Tell those games made me who I am right now
Thats amazing to hear! I appreciate you sharing that.
That’s so beautiful to hear
The way Yuna talks to the crowd at the end, but she whispers to herself “or the dreams that have faded”. It’s just so good.
I know omg I burst into tears when she whispers... I can't I really can't....
Pfffffft
Tidus starts to disappear
Im crying
She runs to him
Im crying more
She said i love u
I cry even more
Then she talks at the end
I cry
Yuna was fully ready to die until the truth was revealed, then Tidus learned he was the one that had to sacrifice himself, and did so in secret.
Just reading this comment gave me the urge to cry
I really hate that they prominently show the Seymour kiss in Yuna's "dreams that have faded" montage. Makes no sense and messes up the emotion. Here's all my friends, my lover I just lost, and some freaky dead fcker I made out with!
Wow anyone still playing this game after 20 more years. That's called quality.
just finished fx2 doing fx now so i can take my time :D
Think im playing through it for the 200th time hahaha
This game is timeless
Man… I can’t physically get through this game knowing how it’s going to fuck me up at the end… I kinda refuse to play X2 because this ending is perfect, I don’t want X2 to just fix it yanno?
im pretty sure im going to beat this game on my deathbed
No surprise, it's a Hironobu Sakaguchi era Final Fantasy game not to mention it is the last Hironobu Sakaguchi Era Final Fantasy game and it was FANTASTIC! I still play FF games but none of them have really hit like his FF games.
Didn’t realize I was walking into a love story when I first played this back in the day, and it hit me like a ton of bricks.
The best love stories are like that tbh.
The ending it's impossible not to cry through.
It's not my favorite FF game, but the ending is really strong.
A perfect ending ruined by an unnecessary sequel.
@@millgiass PREACH! I personally like to pretend the sequel doesn't exist. Such an embarrassing, cynical product that just spits on the artistic merit of the original.
The sequel was fine. Good gameplay, too. Gotta love fandom complainers.
@@Finangleydoo meh. Terrible story can't be recovered by game play alone when it comes to an RPG or a sequel.
FFX is top tier in basically every way a game can be.
The fish out of water style story is really well executed. It allows for you to learn about Spira with Tidus and it makes for some very strong world building.
The characters are so well defined. Everyone in the main cast has an arc and undergoes some satisfying character development.
The game looks incredible for such an old title. The cutscenes still hold up today imo. The music is universally beloved.
Customizing your character's sphere grids and equipment adds a personal touch to each individual playthrough and makes for a deep endgame experience.
Some may find the turn-based gameplay to be dated but I don't. The slower pace allowed the devs to put unique strategic challenges into FFX that you just don't see in their ATB style games.
FFX delivers high quality storytelling, world building, characters, aesthetics, character customization, and strategic gameplay. What more can you ask for!?
Thank you for sharing this compilation of your experience.
Also, the way these characters were integrated into the combat system.
It's not just that each character has a set role to play in battle. Several other Final Fantasy games make specific characters stronger than others, or faster, or able to do ranged attacks. Unlike in the games where characters are interchangeable (especially with the job system), the player has to keep every character in mind and think about who they are in order to choose the best one for the situation.
But in FFX the characters also TALK during battle. They REACT to what's happening during a fight, INTERACT with each other and even provide COMMENTARY on what's going on. We're not just learning who they are in cutscenes, but also while we're grinding to build up to the next boss. It deepens the characters and makes them more meaningful for the player, which makes the ending even more devastating.
I just noticed Kimahri and Tidus mirror each other during the Seymour fights. Tidus rushes in to back up Kimahri, shouting "Hey, save some for us!" and once Seymour reappears we get "Save some for Kimahri!" from Kimahri. Cute!
My favourite part of this game is 20 years later... watching new people play it and it cracking their hearts in half like it did mine 🤣
💯
What affects me the most is when Yuna tries to hug Titus and just falls down. Her expression is so sad when lying on the floor.
One of the few video game journeys I will never forget.
exactly what she asked you to
All the tears... one of the most beautiful games ever made
I think it’s overrated lol
@@gamerd8709 cringe
An interesting thing some people may not puck up on when Yuna defeats each of her possessed Aeons is that the link between them is broken and it’s physically hurting her.
When that happens with a Final Aeon it kills the summoner because the link is also emotional.
No matter how often I play this game or watch it, I always cry in the end.
The ending has never not made me cry. Oh this story is so beautiful - my heart can't take it~
I first played this game in 2005, that ending is still rememberable and can still make me cry. FFX has been my most favorite out of the series
The little details, like she whistling at the sea, trying to call him back, cause he came from the sea at the beginning. This game is beautiful.
The realization at HOME is one of my favorite moments in the entire game. Rikku says summoners shouldn't have to sacrifice themselves, but Isaaru responds, "But....that is our choice." Because he's right. No one was ever forced to fight Sin, they did so willingly (granted, under false pretenses, but still, they were choosing it themselves.)
The part that always gets me is right before her big speech at the end. When she's out on the dock, whistling desperately. And she's gotten so good at whistling from all of her practice.
My mother cried in the end and she always hated games but this one made her want me to play the story and other FF games
try "to the moon" .. I never cried so much in a game
Best FF game of my childhood. Could watch people experience this masterpiece everyday and never get bored of it. Wish I could experience it for the first time again.
That ending. I've never NOT cried when I see it.
I remember playing this game like 20ish years ago. The ending always gets me. The part that gets me the most is when she is whistling for you knowing you are not returning but yet she continues to whistle as hard as she can.
This game had the talent to make us laugh AND cry. So many emotions, so much fun, great gameplay, huge amount of sidequests and bosses, great music... This game had everything.
If they remake this game they should keep the ending scene where he starts to fade, had my eyes watery
I'm so happy I still see people discovering and playing this game. Will always be one of my favorite FF games, I still replay it every so often.
I legit did not think I would cry at the end on my playthrough but I was dead wrong. I was in tears at the end.
One of the most memorable endings ever, it's amazing seeing everyone's experiences 😁
55:58 I always know that this is gonna happen. It never fails to tear my heart back in two.
I was fortunate enough to experience the entire Final Fantasy series when they were first released, starting with the first one when I was ten years old. If I had a top five in the main series, this one would definitely be up there.
So beautiful to see your reaction!. This game has been a wonderful memory for the people who played it back in the 2000's. it's wonderful to see that a great written story never gets old and it will still be in the memories of the people who experienced it.
48:50 After arriving here, I fell from shock and couldn't get up. This is a truly genius storyline that transcends genre.
I see the high five with Jecht like the devs saying… yeah we fucking got em kid…
even though you knew it was coming, around the time you first go to zanarkand you find out he is a dream of the faith... hours before the end of the game you know he will die, that doesn't change anything... still 100% water works over here, very heart-wrenching seeing yuna crash to the ground when she tries to hug him.
Still the most memorable and most heart breaking "I love you" I have ever heard since this was released :'( such an amazing story
I recommend playing FFX-2 next
It's not too serious and a great job system, can't wait for it
Arguably my favourite FF, mostly because of the entire approach to combat, I think that's perfected ff, but the music (naturally), story, colouring, I could go on are also brilliant, not to mention that the Sphere Grid is strangely engaging.
The heartbreaking thing about the ending is that Tidus could only save Yuna at the cost of his own existence. He was so mad at her for choosing to sacrifice herself to save the world, but in the end he made the same decision. Yuna spent years preparing herself for her end, and accepted her fate long before the journey started. Titus literally had one day to reconcile with the fact that he wasn't even a real person. He was the dream of a faith who died long ago, and after they defeated sin, he would cease to be. He went through with it anyways.
My favourite FF game after FF7. The ending is heartbreaking yet legendary.
It's amazing to me that I've been playing and replaying this game for 20 years. I first played it in 2002 when I was 12, and so many moments like the wedding sequence and Yuna falling off the cliff still make me emotional
The child actually becomes a blitzball ... bevor it grows up. Getting killed, coming back as a monster, turning into a blitzball afterwards to fulfill his wish.
FFX is amongst my top 3 FF games, everything about the game made a huge impact to me when I was young and the OST made it cut deeper. Almost all my mates who played it didn't deny crying at the ending, and you know how tough it is for teenage boys to admit emotions.
I'm always glad to find someone else who can enjoy FFX as much if not more than I do. Keep the vids up! ^^
Just finished my 5th playthrough, one of my top games of all time and i cry every time Yuna says I love you.
Recently 100%ed the game for he first time. Still love it. The music is phenominal and inspired me to learn piano. I can listen to zanarkand on repeat for hours.
The fact that I played this game 10+ times truly shows how great the game is or just how addicted I am to the storyline & music
I think it just shows that you have way too much free time...but I agree. It's a good game.
There were many Games i played over the past 30 years, but until today no ending hit ne with such an impact like FFX. Back in these days it was always talk like „the previous Games were much better“ or „tidus is almost a Girl“ and stuff, but i really liked spira and its characterd. It was my First rpg and the gameplay was challenging for me, but then i finally won the last battle just to see everything getting lost that was built. These final moments are still hard to watch, feeling all the despair and sadness. The music breaks me everytime, can‘t keep my eyes dry watching and listening this. And yunas speech in Luca… well, after i lost my best friend, my sister and my father during the last 15 years it is pretty close to me. Never forget the people we lost and the dreams that faded. So strong
But to be honest, the Game made me cry before, at 32:00 when tidus is told that yuna has to die to defeat sin… that feeling, that you accompany the person you like to her own death… thats a sting
Man this game. Hard to believe it's really been 20 years. It's so special and completely unheard of in my experience for a game to elicit such a strong emotional response from LITERALLY EVERYBODY that plays it all the way through.
i played this game for the first time on ps2 at 2004, even when time goes by and finish this game over and over my opinion still the same, even more! this is masterpiece, a PERFECT GAME! aw man, it brings all those memories... the story, gameplay, the music, just so amazing! even i enjoy playing this game for long just to play blitzball, so addicting when i know how it works haha, well.. so good to see someone else or other gamer experience this masterpiece! thank you for the love and memories you gave to all of us fans through this video! love your channel :)
This made me sob so much, so lovely seeing someone affected by this beauty of a game so much
I totally was crying with you watching this! FFX is the best!
its too bad yuna's final farewell message from the video sphere wasn't in this, that part kills me every time.
I have seen this game ravage the hearts of many and draw tears in the steadiest of players since it's release. Its up there with the best love stories of all time and it ends in a way that just tears at the soul then gives you that little glimpse at the end that gives you hope and helps fight back the tears.
Final fantasy literally changed my life!
It gave me a heart and the understanding of friendship and love.
It may sound silly but it really did change my perspective on the world and the people in it.
Only we knew Tidus was the most powerful Aeon.
Still makes me tear up like I was 10 all over again
The moment she falls through him, bam, right in the soul. Gets me every time.
I feel your emotions! The videos and the music are real killers! The story too! I love all the characters but Yuna is the best! The best game in my life! I've played it many times and I think I'll start it again through your video! Thank you and greetings from Germany! Yuna is great but so are you!
That hug at the end has to be the most beautiful one ever. Its so dang sweet
This is one of my favorites! I love the Art Style and Story, enjoyed the Episode. Hope your having a great day! 🤗
Great game brings back memories. I got this and my brother got silent hill 2 but with no memory card hahaha
This is my all time favorite final fantasy game
Everybody gangsta till ‘To Zanarkand’ starts hitting them high notes 😭
Yuna: To the people and friends that we have lost, or the dreams that have faded... Never forget them.
Background NPCs: *cheers*
The players: *ugly cry* or *silent tears*
Omg the ending. The feels. Ladies and gentlemen fuck this amazing game.
My favpurite Final Fantasy, for me it's a masterpiece.

I have been waiting for this for so long 😭💚 so glad you got to experience it, and enjoyed it! This was my first ever final fantasy, and it has forever held a special place in my heart. 💕
45:45 Auron: "Many summoners stray from their path and lose their way here"
Arena!
Everyone whos ever played FFX: 'sees Seymour for the first time' "This guy sucks."
this is my first time seeing one of your videos and I enjoyed it so much! FFX is one of my all time favorites and so is X-2 and the tears just never stop even through the corny dialogue (or maybe because of it? idk, it's touching!)
yeah i think the dialogue and voice acting have a lot of charm and the fact that these characters actually have depth, their emotional struggles and the themes of the game hit hard that it all just comes together
The best game in final fantasy in my opinion. Final fantasy 7 is great too, but this one had the best story ever. Usually I never cry about anything, but this game really hit home. We are cry babies, and Sir Jecht was right. I’ve beaten this game 3 times already, and I could honestly say it was great that I got to see your reaction.
This has to be the most similar reaction of the game which I had! Great video, top notch editing!
This Game was the Most emotional experiance in My gamer life.
Looking great, skipped around a little but you made it mostly watchable. Thanks for the return of some memories
It´s the soundtrack... especially the sad pieces are really getting to you. Add the real sad story and you have a recipe for tears. Great game! 😞
The love between Tidus and Yuna was so profound that they felt the need to make a second game just to finish telling their story. When has that ever happened before?
Hi! I found you by searching FFX playthroughs and reactions and I'm looking forward to watching.
I play this game every year. Since 4th grade lol. Its peak nostalgia.
Just came here to watch you cry. It hits so hard. We can all relate to Tidus in someway unfortunately.
We all feel bad for Yuna but remember Titus gave his life and love and everything for her so he is the tragic character not Yuna
In the ending when Yuna is laying on top of the airship and the orb floats up out of her...its because a peice of her just died at that moment...at least that's always been my theory 🤷♂️
Just re-visited since 2004 I remember how much I could not stand Seymour lmao, also story and gameplay still holds great today
00:49 can't wait for the tears.
I always revisit this from time to time
“Listen to my story” still triggers 🌊😭🌊
I have play this end to end 6 times and i still cant watch the ending without getting choked up and teary eyed whether its seeing others reactions or the scene itself.
Still cry again rewatch this ending.
I loved this game and still do. I hope you get around to play Final Fantasy X-2... Trust me you are gonna love it.
first game it made me sit through the credits.... cause i didnt wanted to believe that final cutscene.... pain
6:41 "You with a woman? You can't even catch a ball!" My teenage years all over again.
48:33 I've died so many times fighting this stupid fucking thing and to watch it just fucking off itself like that is both sickeningly hilarious and infuriating at the same time
“Maybe his veins runs through his hair” me: DIES LAUGHING
Never played a game where I felt such emotion by the end
Tidus isn't the weirdo. It was everyone as Square who brought him to life.
"Do you know what the secret of flying is? Throwing yourself at the ground, and missing..." -- Arthur Dent, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
I can only play this game once. The ending broke me and I just don't have the heart to play it again.
It’s Tide-us. Tide! Like water which he swims in all the time, and is in his signature sword!
I hope you FF X2 next. There are some silly moments but overall the story is pretty good. and the finale is worth the journey. Plus you get to see best girl Yuna again which is never a bad thing
FFX-2 is the complete character assassination of Yuna. In my mind, X-2 does not exist.
@@guruthosamarthruin4459 Respectfully, I disagree.
The way I see it, FFX Yuna is shaped by the expectations and responsibility of being a summoner destined to fight Sin. She was not able to live the free life she wanted because she had the fate of the world in her hands and oaths to fulfill. She was so tied down by her duties as a summoner that her whole purpose and infact much of her true self was lost in the mission and she was never fully free. Only Tidus was able to make her feel free and open her timid heart, daring her to dream of what could be.
In FFX2, Yuna is no longer weighed down by the oath of a Summoner and is able to create a life/story for herself. She's a young woman looking for liberation from the life that had kept her held back from who she really wanted to be. She is searching for her own place in a world without Sin, daring to dream of a better tomorrow thanks to Tidus. Then trying to protect the world from a weapon that threatens to destroy the peace and "Calm" that she fought so hard to achieve. On top of this, she longs for the love she never got to have. Her heart belongs to Tidus and after everything they went through she wishes to share the new world with the only man that ever truly made her feel free. So her journey is one of Reinvention, Self-Healing, and the search for the man who made her feel like anything was possible, and opened her heart.
Yes, there's fan service, yes there's cringe moments, yes we could say Yuna is a strong independent woman that "don't need no man".. but Yuna loves Tidus and after all she went through in FFX I think X2 is a beautiful story that leads her to the happy ending she always deserved. In the end FFX2 was all about what Yuna chooses rather than FFX where most of her story was wrapped around what was expected of her.
Anyways I'm not saying I'm right. I just wanted to express my view on it. This is just my observation and opinion :)
@@granddaddyotaku636 well said my friend, while certain things in X-2 does make me raise a question or two. Overall I think it's a great continuation. Her summoner outfit will always be my favorite though 😍
Love this game. Wish we could have gotten a complete playthrough.
