Since the items exist and all, but a proper event crossover would be neat.

Yeah, I'd love to go and play with some big blitzballs on the beach!
I would love a Blitzball mini-game implemented, but the opinions are so mixed here. : (
I think they should go for it since it'd probably be decently popular. A blitzball would work well as a fashion accessory/persistent emote. Wakka's attire and hairstyle could be a reward locked behind a reasonably attainable achievement.
So long as they don't neglect it and add new rewards over time like with Triple Triad I think it'd do pretty well for itself.
Didn't they say a blitzball game mode will be added in EW back in the first or second announcement? And here we're in patch 6.15 with no Blitzball news....
+1 For this! And we could have Jecht and Tidus butting heads, competing with eachother to see whose the best Blitzballer between thw two and you get to pick between the two of them who your going to join for the event. :3
Personally, I'd pick Jecht because he's my in game daddy. No homo, btw. Just love the guy! x3
I hope blitzball is as terribly confusing and clunky as it was in FFX, otherwise it wont be an accurate representation.
Lulu glam please
Just reviving this for a little bit, but anyone remember when was the last time he talked about this? Will we expect this year or is it still up in the air?
It would be the perfect way to introduce the long requested blitzball so take my upvote.
... i don't know why i just imagine Tidus forced laugh when your party get deleted in A.S.S.
Only if I can score once with Jecht shot, and then hide in my own goal and bug the AI into swimming in circles. I kid lol I'd love to see this. When I grow up I wanna be a blitzball! FFX is held in such high regard by most people I speak to, especially in comparison with many of the modern FF titles. I was always baffled as to why they'd lean on the early numbered titles for everything (themes, gear, plot) and then completely ignore titles like 9 and 10 which are incredibly iconic.
+1 for blitzball expansion for Gold Saucer, give it it's own section with the floating water sphere. You could have npcs in the rafters wandering around and such. You could have an offline and online component for a weekly tournament activity for MGP and gil, possibly rotating rewards like the Tournament mode in FFX, and swap out the OG names for new ones. So like, Gridianian Glories instead of Guado Glories for one example. There's soooooo much they could do with it.
I'd I had to pick, I'd much prefer FFX style blitzball to FFX-2 "manager" style though.
This discussion is all well and good but we need to ask the bigger questions like will the event have an Otherworld orchestrion roll?
I saw a few people floating face down for hours in the ocean during the Beach Party event. I was like "Oh cool...they got people dropping hints on Blitzball coming by having people practice holding their breath".
Nah...just corpses. I was disappointed.
When I grow up I want to be a Blitzball!
The best part is it evidently isn't a mistranslation. The original Japanese also says he wants to be a blitzball! https://legendsoflocalization.com/qa...lly-this-dumb/
*Tidus Laughs*. Maybe one day but right now nope.
I would flip over a tonberry for rikku's berserk outfit from x-2.
I just like the fact the song is about the game's story and world itself. Anyone can license a song and slap it on an FMV, it takes a special kind of person to crank out sweet buttrock that is crafted for the story. Though thinking about it, my dream crossover is seeing the devs try to tell the entire story of X-3. It's all well and good to read about terrorists using a blitzball to blow up a stadium but I want to see that in a game!
I believe the last time it was talked about was in the live letter in Feb 2021.
Yoshi P was teasing that there's going to be a major update to the gold saucer that will be as big as mahjong during EW. He then asked twitch chat what they think it is, everyone mostly spammed blitzball. So not confirmed, but he didn't deny it?
