I'm used to my fancy jRPGs with my movable cameras. Is that really so wrong?

I'm guessing they know that. Doing it realistically would make the Al-Bhed primers impossible.

Probably!

Nope, but it shouldn't really be that surprising. :3 Maybe I just don't play enough fancy jRPGs with movable camera that it's not standard issue to me. XD

I wasn't so much surprised so much as frustrated. All these corners and turns that I can't get good views of and it makes me feel like there is a treasure chest hiding there. I honestly can't remember the last time I played a 3D jRPG without a movable camera.

Also didn't FFX have this dungeon where like every random encounter in it was all a boss fight? Yeah that's pretty much there for the obsessives.

Also also the superweapons for everyone are stupid tedious/hard. I didn't even bother.

This and also I think everything in FFX - literally everything - has been rendered. I remember a cutscene where the camera's fixed and then, for some reason, it changes angle to point at the exact other side of the room, and it's all rendered. There's absolutely no reason not to include a free-look or first-person look button. It honestly surprised me to when my then-roommate and I split the game up.

Having said thus, I dunno, it was alright. For some reason we had a huge problem on the second Seymore fight. Grinded a bit, unleashed a fuckton of summons, and he died.

I am sad. This LP never finished, and now the photobucket account hosting the pictures appears to be down and the author banned... I thought it was a good read for this game.
