Dont you ever put X-2 in the equation ever again! Tht game NEVER HAPPENED!!!!! KAPEESH!

But FFX-2 is one of the better games in the series. Not even kidding. That battle system was perfect.

[KoujiGeki]

ok the battle system might have been ok. but the game itself was terrible it was a Charlies angels FF style.

Aside from the opening scene, which was almost a humorous nod, I never really felt the Charlie's Angels vibe. 9/10 people who refuse to acknowledge the game's existence seem to have never actually played it, or played past the first hour.

It's worth playing if only because it's a modern FF with a decent job system.

i tried to play it i just couldnt get into it im sorry. i didnt like that you could only play 3 characters i like variety. Yuna i only like cause she was a summoner but now that she was i didnt like her. Rikku i never used all that much in 10. Pain is a lame female version of auron. But back on Hand Dark Knight needs its own line of weapons im for 2 handed weapons like greatssword or ball and chain

There are two good reasons to play ffx-2: fantasising about smashing rikku and the awesome battle system. Play it!

Ahem yeh anyway, drk! Yeh sweet, awesome whatever.... Greatswords please!

[KoujiGeki]

because thats Drg? not Drk

[Durian]

that is a good cosplay!! 0_0
i agree that getting DRK in the game will be hard
because much of their features are spread out among other classes/jobs,
but i want it so bad!!

One good reason. And it's not the battle system.

A morning star is kind of a clumsy weapon, but I suppose it's more practical than a scythe.

Though it's not entirely true that scythe and scythe-like weapons with curved blades (where the inside is the cutting portion) were never used in combat.

Most of these weapons were improvised farm tools, or meant for a particular use, but it's not totally unbelievable a scythe could develop in a culture as a weapon for combat. It's obviously a reference to imagery of a reaper though, and the associations with darkness and death that it shares with dark knight, as you stated.

I think his point is that a scythe was never made nor meant for combat, thus makes a poor weapon for any combat class. To this day I have never heard of scythes as we think of them (drk, grim reaper) used as anything but a farmer's tool. Yeah farmers used them for lack of any other options, but they are not designed for combat. Of course this is fiction so anything goes, but I would much prefer DRK use a classic weapon. A scythe just doesn't seem to fit in with the lore imo.
