Let's Play Final Fantasy X #2 - We called it Sin

[xMalakym]

Hearing Auron say "these ones" makes me grind my teeth after years of being reprimanded for using that particular variety of bad grammar...

[TheTheDanceMusic]

"my old man?" priceless

[dragondisaster]

So Auron's hand was fine and he just had it in a sling as a fashion statement

[swiggey2]

@dragondisaster He doesn't even have it in a sling. He just has his elbow resting in the arm slot of his top. It's a Japanese thing. When the males would walk wrong, instead of having their arms through the sleeves, they'd just rest their elbows through the kimono sleeves and rest their wrists against their chest/abdomen.

[happymoose225]

final fantasy 8 for the win

[xoxEdgeLoverxox]

Okay, Serenia, please answer me this; when does Tidus (TIE-DUS!) get the blue sword in the game?

[YoshiKing25]

did Auron give him a capture weapon? O_o

[electrimx]

Woa woa woa? How come people are saying BAD things about videos posted on youtube. like "you suck asshole" when they have NO videos posted.. and what does the guy get for posting it anyway? views...what benefit is that?

[electrimx]

@0:39 i didnt know Yunaa was already in that part?

[ShadowOfAFailur999]

i would listen to the rest of your lets plys but you barely talk...

[RaioShii2021]

I like FF X and FF X-2, basically my favorites next to FFVIII, personally I think there should be a FF X-3 and FF X-4 to give Rikku and Paine their own story's and like call it Rikku or Paine Adventures, I'm sure there's alot mroe they could do with all the FF X character's imo.

[Adriannu255]

@RaioShii2021 While I whole heartedly agree, I have to say that it would be a waste of time... Sadly, not many fans care about Paine and Rikku... It wouldn't sell much, if at all...

[Vinifera7]

If I had to rate my favorites, it would be:

1) FFVI

3) FFX

2) FFVII

FFX is such a great game. It has a good story, really smooth gameplay, and enough sidequests to keep you playing for a hundred hours or more. The only thing that I wish they added was a way to skip cutscenes since it can sometimes be tedious to wait through them on replays or when you get a game over.

[Destorious1]

my likes of final fantasy is:

1-final fantasy 10

2-final fantasy 7

3-final fantasy 6

4-final fantasy X2

5-final fantasy 12

[pimpsbeep]

[Whwwrestling2]

[justianfox64]

well I like this game too but my fav part about this game is the music may be the best video game music I've ever listened to

[DivineSlayer1]

when you see a giant bubble floating in the sky, its time to run

[digifire1322]

@pokemonfan324 Thanks for the spoiler. WE ALL APPRECIATE IT.

[RikkudoSennin]

Lmao yeah - 8 was a huge teen angst game. The main character is emo fail, has a huge cut on his nose. ;P Not on his wrist. YOU'RE DOING IT WRONG SQUALL!

[Zackpwnsall]

my favorite final fantasy game so far is 5 because of the job system but it could change because I haven't played all of them... yet

[Takoyakiee]

I got to the wedding part and i try using silence on it but i can't kill so i was gonna restart my game see if i missed anything and i cant find it :'(

[spybloom]

They should've had more battles like at 3:08..it's like going from point A to point B but automatically giving you the random battles and different choices to make in them

[xFinalxHeavenx]

There you go, Tidus! Bitch-slap the evil out of the Sin Spawn!

[rikko338]

@pokemonfan324 You forget that Auron was dead all along. And that Tidus doesn't really exist.

[iCheesey]

Yea and WE called it cloverfield.

[WigglesThePirate]

teedus?

[syphoid101]

demi cant kill you in ths game

also i noticed that when tidus talked you could kinda hear an echo

[ninjawork111]

Very nice.

I noticed you are playing this on PS3 and I have one. Honestly, I have seen some BEAUTIFUL PS3 playing a PS2 game, but this one just doesnt cut it. I also used to play it on PS2, and I really cant tell a difference, even on the CGI scenes. Do you notice a difference, whitemage?

[MyNameIsBucket]

Nah, it's been pretty well established that PS3's upscaling blows goats.

[Gauntes]

man.. my brother spent over 300 hours on this game... and I'm not exaggerating..

[nayder09]

that guy looks like roxas from kingdom hearts

[tnoe68]

my best file was 1 day and over 40 hours totaled

[tofuwithgun]

maybe its beacuse kingdom hearts and final fantasy where made from the same peapole

[SStrikerR3]

Just so you know, during the fight against the sin spawn, you don't need to heal. His attack, demi, just cuts your hp by 1/4th, so you can't ever die.

[WhitemageSerenia]

@SStrikerR3 Yeah, I know. Just during the time of recording I hadn't played FFX in a long time, so I couldn't remember if he had any other attack other then Demi, and I also couldn't remember if FFX was the one where Demi actually could kill you. (I remember in one of um Demi would always do at least 1 hp of DMG and I couldn't remember which one. But thanks for the reminder

[chazxr]

2:57 he is doing sora's stance from kingdom hearts

[UltimentZeldaFan1]

Tidus is hahaha copy right

[1230matt9]

i like this game itt is my fav rpg but i had to give up my ps2 for a wii

[CelingKat]

Someone actually said that Cloud is from KH. So I had to insult them and let them know how amazingly wrong they were. Oh and hey...Do you use a video capture card or an emulator?

[komododragoshbestfan]

cloud is in KH but hes not the main characters name.... sora

[WhitemageSerenia]

@CelingKat I use a dazzle capture card =)

[UltimentZeldaFan1]

WhiteMageSerenia Are gonna do an LP on FInal Fantasy 13 when it comes out in march cuz i think it would be really epic to se you play that

[gameboycolor47]

@UltimentZeldaFan1 man getin FFXIII in 1-4 weeks

[LilacKitty]

@WhitemageSerenia

Dazzling!

[TheEpicGnome]

dude, that is exactly what i call then, and the spawner looks like a sea anemone.

Back foul sin spawn, i have a sword!

dude, the boss is so cheap, all it does is cast a spell that destroys 1/4 of your hp over and over and over again. Cheap!

what about five?

[TheEpicGnome]

That little boy is a time mage, and he cast stop on the environment, but Lidus resited.

[Xman42635]

Auron! Yayfers!!

[Xyrgra]

Amen on the 12 thing; for me, it's not that it's a bad FF but rather there's almost no plot development; if you add up the amount of script in previous FFs and compare it to 12 you'll see what I mean - I estimate FF12's script is probably 1/3 to 1/2 in length and content compared to 6 or 7.

It's basically a dungeon crawl and feels more like an MMO than a JRPG/Console RPG - if I wanted that I'd play WoW or D3, heh.

[antney66]

Just wondering, um... are you going to let's play the Kingdom Hearts games?

[MetalKeybladeMaster]

I've only played 3, 12, Echoes of Time, and a little bit of 10......

[suicune1324]

my favourites are 12 then 9 then 10 and then 8.

I don't get what people like in 7. In my opinion its one of the worst but thats just me. Lwet the people like what they like

[XGoombafiedX]

Nice timing on the cutscebe.

Nostalgia Kicking In.

[sc02y]

love the music.but man tidus and his constant winging drove me up the fucking wall!!

[VergilownsDante]

FFX is the best in my opinion I love the sphere grid the characters are awesome except for Wakka and Seymour and the music is flatout awesome

[superbad42]

Dont be dissin the Wakka! >8(

[VergilownsDante]

Why not he is always complaining about al bhed or yevons teachings or whenever your about to fight someone from yevon it just really annoys me

[VincentValentine52]

I have to agree with the Seymour comment, god I hate that guy! He is so wierd! And I could swear that a woman voices him! The best character is a toss between Auron and Rikku! The music is totally awesome!

[WhiteLycanXII]

He kinda sounds like Bender of Futurama. Give the voice a close listen. Me and an old buddy always made jokes about him being cheap, cuz when he first joins you, and you fight those fish fiends, he'd almost always get the finishing strike, and then he'd point to himself and laugh like he did all the work. So, he got the nickname "Wakka the Cheapskate." ...

...I dunno...

[Rikku7890]

You sound alot like Davetheusher

[superbad42]

no way man dave is way more spazzy

[crapheadandidiot]

Shit. You already said that. Ignore my other comment then.

[crapheadandidiot]

You know you don't need to heal in that fight, right? Demi only halves your HP, so if you get to 1 HP, it can't be halved.

[BURRAH86]

man your fast when doing auron's overdrive.

[bodygard11]

som1 plz tell me who or what that kid with the hood that said u cant while he was talkin to the little boys.... hes creepy and ive never known what he is

[Cuda0000]

He's the aeon Bahumut. You have a few meetings with him throughout the game if you play all the way through.

[darkfirefaerie]

He's called the Fate Child if I remember right.

I'm not sure exactly WHAT he is, but I'm asssuming he's a spirit or some sort (Like the Fates in greek Mythology maybe?)

[VincentValentine52]

If you have played the game, you would know EXACTLY who he is! But I am not going to post it here - Spoilers!

[zyclan1]

WOOOOOO YEEAAA 10 ROCKS, i got the Yu Yevon symbol tattooed on my right shoulder

[donnaangelicamusic]

what is your #1 game in your top 5 ????

[WhitemageSerenia]

Final Fantasy VI Easily

[MnE4life]

Why? i Have never played it?

[WhitemageSerenia]

Its just an amazing game, and to me, none of the newer FFs have even came close to how I feel about VI. The only one that has came close, most others don't even consider it as part of the main series. Ala FFXI: Online

[MnE4life]

so whats so good about the MMO version fFF

[WhitemageSerenia]

Alot of stuff. Its fun, and you can meet people all over the world it also has an awesome story line and of course an epic musical score by Nobuo. You can check out some of my FFXI Related videos to see for yourself.

[gameboycolor47]

@WhitemageSerenia what story i'v played the game there's no story and it can get boring and it's hard to get any money oh and the leveling up is way to hard and i play baldurs gate

[WhitemageSerenia]

@gameboycolor47 Then you haven't played FFXI. Or not enough to get into it. The story unfolds via quests and nation missions.

[gameboycolor47]

@WhitemageSerenia Well that's still no excuse for the money making problem

[WhitemageSerenia]

@gameboycolor47 There is no money making problem, You just have to find your way to make it. There are SOOO many opportunities to make money in FFXI, it just takes patience and hard work, kinda like IRL

[gameboycolor47]

@WhitemageSerenia well my sis has played for 2 years and she still dose not like the money erning prosses but i guss it stil is fun to play

[Phalanxification]

@WhitemageSerenia or Mabinogi. I make money making and selling Rolling Pins. :D

[azuraknightkite89]

dont know if anyone told you this but you can hear echoes of the voices during the video

[timkegley]

this is my favorite final fantasy of all time. i have no idea why so many people gate it

[WhiteLycanXII]

Let's see... I figure, the more Final Fantasies you hate, the more true the fan you must be.

That's what I've gathered from people and their bickering and whining. Me, I like 'em all. Played every damn one, 10 being the first I ever played.

[XGoombafiedX]

Good for you. I can't stand people who bicker over the diferences between games in the same series. I've learned to appreciate each one for its unique offerings.

[WhiteLycanXII]

Got a favorite?

[supermonkeyninja]

me 2 bro 10 than i played 8 now i cant wait for 13

[WhiteLycanXII]

I'm gonna say 5 was my favorite, (addictive job system) followed by 10, and 6, 7, 8, and 9. Those four are neck 'n neck.

[LordEdge19]

You like 12? LIE! Nobody can truly enjoy this game, Vaan ruins everything :(

[WhiteLycanXII]

Who the hell is this Vaan character. Sounds like a bad name for a bad protagonist. Square would never put some douche named Vaan in a Final Fantasy.

[pimpsbeep]

@LordEdge19 i liked 12 you were probably bad at it humting was awesome

[skaterbrat1234]

i played this game when i was 4 and a final fantasy fan was board

no matter how hard it was i loved it and the charecters

[ZorkoftheDark]

note u can get warrior and slayer overdrives from the endless sin spawn fight.

[WeShallBurnInHeck]

Its a bubble in the sky... oh my goodness! lol

[Alchemydude666]

you should LP Shin Megami Tensei Persona 3: FES

[axsprime]

do you how long that would take...

and plus you have the answer...

[totaltotaltotalsmeg]

just let you know you dont need to use a potion on the tentacle boss as his only attack is demi (takes of 1/4 of your health) therefore you cant die eben if you get to 1hp

[WhitemageSerenia]

ya, i know i was't thinking fully lol I realized that though butr thanks for the reminder

[Linkforlife199]

I prefer IV, VI and X. IV being my all time favourite by a margin with VI.

[kcinkid]

all this has done is made me want the game again :)

[NintendoCapriSun]

I love the sound of Auron's blade clashing against an enemy. It's the greatest sound effect in the entire game.

[LancerD1984]

I think your schedule rocks! Randomness FTW!

[Ytiruces]

=D At least you aren't LPing the Xenosaga series... Imagine the amount of videos that would purely be cutscene...

[ChronaMewX]

You heard the man, Serenia, play Xenosaga

[judaijaden]

i stick with tidus Yuna And auron cause

Tidus i let him learn hastega (the Spelling is right)

Yuna for support, aeons, and immunity spells

and Auron hmm.....he had armor breaks skills

and he had big damage than others.....

[WhitemageSerenia]

Not sure why everyone keeps telling me their party set ups, but I'll be using all the characters as I need them, I'll be trying to play to their strengths and weaknesses. Though your team is the same as mine when I go for the final area

[ProtoOmegaXenosaga]

Hope you make thse much more often than 1 time per week O.o

[WhitemageSerenia]

Under the current schedule, it'd be 1 week per month while I work on my other projects. Though given the nature of how I record this (Can't use save states) I generally have to record more then 1 episode in a sitting generally to the next save point basically. so I might turn this into an every day thing I'm not sure yet

[HoodyMage]

Ya, I don't get why everyone dislikes X so much. It's honestly my favorite in the series, and I actually liked X-2 almost as much. I thought the garment system was great.

[MrRpgDude]

Same.

[shinox2]

I always stick with the Tidus, Wakka, and Auron Combination. I like the battles to be quick and painful, but sometimes I switch with the other characters.

[baschfire]

hmm.. I liked the love story better than the one in ff7, it lasts longer. Although, it was rather heart wrenching at the end.

I think the battle system for X is... nice, but it doesn't make you think as quickly, so that lost some quality in my eyes. The storyline is great.

that whole "I can't stand with a sword" to the awesome at swords transition could be smoother.

[baschfire]

now, to see if I missed anything. I love this game so much

[Oblivionatrix]

we called it ....."Spoiler"

-cackle.-

I'm not that mean I won't ruin the ending.

[Memyria]

There's an echo, like was mentioned in a few other comments. It's nothing very major that affects the quality really, it just surprised me the first time I noticed it.

I agree it's hard ranking the FF series though FFX for me would have to at the top with FFVII. FFVI focused too much on the main characters with not enough explanation about Kefka's motivation.

[Slobad88]

This one is up there on my list to truth be told the only final fantasy I don't like is 4.

[Gusdavidson]

The voice was about half a second behind the game recording. Just so you'd know.

[WhitemageSerenia]

I'm aware, I'm still getting used to this recording method. As I can't record my comentary with the video simaltaneously I need to use audacity to get a separate voice track to then mix in with the video recording since dazzle gets both teh video and audio from the game together and doesn't accept my mic imput. I've also gotta adjust it so that my mic isn't pickign up my TV giving that echo effect lol

[Gusdavidson]

Good luck getting that to work, I look forward to the next part.

[kiradragontamer]

You did a wonderfull job with the dazzle. To be honest I think it would be better that you do it as an end of the month thing, but if you want to do it at a random time then go for it. I just hope that it doesn't bog you donw any more that you already are.

[kapper619]

i like it but i want more lol cos i enjoyed this game so much but still dont beat ff8 i dont think

[Cevian]

You'll get no sympathy from me!

...Wait.

[MindstormXL]

SOME CAN'T WAIT TO DIE!

[Treble120]

that is a great line

[garrahasfunk]

What characters are you going to use most often? Personally, I like to use Tidus, Auron and Lulu/Yuna (depending on battle). Wakka is a close fourth

[baschfire]

I'm personally a Kimari, Yuna and Tidus kinda guy. Kimari is great with the overdrives, Yuna for healing and summoning, and Tidus for speed and cheer.

...I've played this game to much..

[CeresFantasy]

While the Characters were talking, you could quietly hear an echo, but no worries, it's not too loud or anything.

Great job with this LP so far, I'm really going to enjoy this!

[Tiaramaki]

I can hear echoing. =O It's nothing that bothers me too much, though.

3:01 What can we say? Tidus is a quick learner. XD

[gargisamara]

I think he's able to wield it with one hand better because of that random stance and a bit of getting used to the weight.

[mackenzy123]

whoot this makes 3 lp's on youtube so far from what ive seen including mine xd

[TheTigersAreHere]

it's quite alright about not posting Wild Arms...this surprise LP well makes up for it lol...i still plan on messaging you when your recording this for the hell of it lol so be prepared...(I was wondering why you kept gettin on PSN earlier today (if this is the reason) but it not saying you were playing a game)

i also recently just finished playin this for the fun of it so im really interested in who youre going to be naming the aeons after lol and how you play though
