The Blitzball Dream is dead

[Austratus]

This might be hopium but I like to think when Yoshi-P said "no Blitzball" at the NA Fan Fest keynote, it was right after he said "oh, weren't we supposed to have a Gold Saucer update in 6.x that hasn't happened yet?"

So, 7.x is still fair game

(PS. "Blitzer" as 8.0's physical ranged job please)

One day...I WILL be a Blitzball!

I have to fulfill my obligation of reminding everybody about the canon story where Tidus kicks a bomb thinking it was a Blitzball and dies.

Do that but with {character I don't like}

Wait what? I think I played a different game cause he didn't die as much as stopped existing.

Ok so not really canon.

Unless they actually go ahead and make X-3 to overwrite it, this is canon. At least in my heart.

I think they'd do an HD M rated remake of X-2 first... just cause fanservice prints money... >.>

So spoiler alert if anyone hasn't played 10 so don't read if you don't want to be spoiled.



Ok...I looked over it and maybe cause I only skimmed it but did I read it right and they have summoner and guardians again? Cause 10 made it so that should NOT be a thing and frankly not even possible now.

Here, have some copium from 2017

All he meant this time was that the Fall Guys thing isn't Blitzball, not that they aren't ever adding it!

Oh so that was the problem? Then why not do it like this -

Blitzball Setup -
Recruit NPCs throughout Hydaelyn to play with you that each have strengths and weaknesses.
You can either manage it or play it yourself and optionally with Friends to replace NPCs.
Rewards change every season with items and mounts from Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy X-2.
Tournaments happen every few months, and the option to form teams is open, and you can play against optional random NPC teams as well (like idk the Azim Steppers or something lol).

Stats can be determined whether you're a offensive, defensive or a kind of tactical player (like you're wanting to play as the goalie).

Their new malmstone PVP system as it is now is their answer, it can work and be converted into this mini-game.

Also as another incentive:

Introduce Blitzballer as a new job as well, and you can learn special Blitzball skills like Jecht Shot that you can use in the mini-game, can learn some skills in the mini-game or through various bosses in Duty Finder Dungeons.

Blitzball Job is my personal wish, but I thought I throw it out there.
