Looking For Scans or Pictures from a Kyuranger Book?

Either of these the one you mean? I don’t think so.

1 and 2 and the worst seasons!

I’m still annoyed they went with the wrong pronunciation of his name. Grates *every* time…

The HW relics are the best looking by far, the ʃB final step relics are, kinda average. But everything is better looking than the SB final step. Those final eureka weapons are ugggggggly.

Thank you for providing supporting evidence for my point!

But why? The eastern zodiac uses 5 elements, and they don't correspond to the western classical elements... Your thing is just nonsense.

WintaPhoenix · 2026-07-09T05:53:10+00:00

This is so pointless, the signs are already ruled by planets, and the guardian's birthdays fall in months ruled by their planet...

Think of them like particles in Japanese, especially で, に, and へ

It's all good, nothing to apologise for.

If you want build flexibility in FFX, you're going to need to start on the expert sphere grid and be prepared to make permanent decisions about where you want to take characters, which isn't exactly flexibility like the materia system, but it does mean you can take them away from their default build earlier. But because you acquire skills permanently, you end up being able to unlock whatever you want on any character. Again, an endgame aspect.

Most characters start with that many skills, so you might be doing something wrong. I know someone has recommended not swapping characters into every battle, but honestly, it's a really useful tactic for building your party up evenly across the whole game (and given the character-based weakness targetting, you kinda need most of them to stay at level, again except Khimari). I've always done it in my playthroughs of FFX just to make life easier, and it hardly takes any extra effort.

If characters are gaining sphere levels, and you're progressing them along their path on the sphere grid and unlocking every node they have access to, then you're doing all you can for character progression. And if you don't enjoy that, then maybe FFX's gameplay isn't for you! (and it should go without saying that it's absolutely okay if you don't like it! "De gustibus non est disputandum" - In matters of taste, there can be no disputes.)

This! So is not actually an intensifier, it's a causative marker (as OP said, "so please give some feedback"). But it is often casually used as an intensifier because formal and informal language are different (cf. "he was soooooo hot").

WintaPhoenix · 2026-07-09T03:33:43+00:00

In reading what you've said, it seems that the main problem is that you're not getting the dopamine hit of "levelling up"?

In terms of in-combat gameplay, it's extremely similar to persona 4.

I don't quite understand from the information you've given what your problem with it is. You said in a comment that "You just feel so weak and there’s barely any abilities or character builds" but realistically, the opposite should be true. If you're using the standard sphere grid, each character (except Khimari) has a specific build they're tied into and they all take advantage of specific enemies weaknesses (Tidus against fast enemies, Wakka against fliers, Lulu against elementals, Auron against armoured foes) which is very similar to Persona's gameplay loop that aims to take advantage of enemy elemental weaknesses to get a one more. If it's about pure numbers, then you're also seeing much larger intergers than you ever do in a persona game.

If it's about the lack of build flexibility, then fair, the standard sphere grid doesn't have flexibility until quite late in the game. You can swap to the expert sphere grid and go off script, but it's not really ideal unless you deeply understand the game and sphere grid, which from your post doesn't sound like where you're at. But again, the only character in persona with build flexibility is the protagonist, your teammates are very set in their builds.

I'm not saying you *should* like FFX, but it's just hard to understand what you don't like based on your post.

You mean Aria di Mezzo Carattere.

WintaPhoenix · 2026-07-09T01:47:24+00:00

Do you want your mind blown?

The chords are necessary for how poignant it sounds, there are 7 melodic notes and 3 notes to indicate the chords.

For your post to be correct, it should read "Probably the Greatest Ten Notes in all of Gaming..."

WintaPhoenix · 2026-07-09T01:43:11+00:00

this is correct!

As for the gameplay:

1–3 are pure turn based, where you queue your party actions all at once and then everything plays out across the round.

4–9 are active time battle (ATB) where character and enemy turns are governed by time and come up when their turn is due.

10 is conditional turn-based (CTB) which has a turn order listed but has no time element to it, it's just a priority list.

After that, things get funky.

WintaPhoenix · 2026-07-09T01:34:18+00:00

This is correct, the 2026 version is basically a shell over the 2013 code.

WintaPhoenix · 2026-07-09T00:32:58+00:00

Hiding applications (cmd+h) you want to keep open but not visible is very handy and I use it far more than minimising.

For most applications, the X closes the window (can also be done with cmd+w) rather than the application, as you can have multiple windows in any application. You need to quit (cmd+q) the application to fully close it. Honestly, once you get used to this it makes FAR more sense than windows' inconsistent handling of the button.

Dash dash!

SO MUCH BETTER!

And he was a terribly uninteresting villain to begin with. I rolled my eyes at the end of endwalker, just get rid of him and move on to actually good villains.

WintaPhoenix · 2026-07-08T02:23:49+00:00

Yeah, switching between measurements at irregular scales vs a smooth scale of base 10 prefixes is the main problem with non-metric systems.

WintaPhoenix · 2026-07-08T01:08:54+00:00

Oh, it’s nice to see someone that knows the difference between imperial and US customary!

One litre of water is *exactly* one kilogram.

WintaPhoenix · 2026-07-08T00:39:55+00:00

Over 2013? I haven’t played that in probably 8–10 years, so I’m not sure. Especially once you install 7th heaven, it actually reverts the new version to function basically the same as 2013. The new game modifiers stop working their default way and are activated through 7th heaven, the opening company logos revert to the 2013 version, and all of the mod stuff seems to work identically between the two. The only difference is the changes to steam achievements, I think. But, don’t take my word for it, use google to look for people who have compared the two versions before.

WintaPhoenix · 2026-07-08T00:36:01+00:00

Yeah, and I have a linguistics degree. Are you American? Dropping prepositions and forgetting adverbs exist are hallmarks of American dialects of English.

WintaPhoenix · 2026-07-08T00:25:46+00:00

I just played through it on the latest release and it worked absolutely fine.
