Fantastic graphics, good story, good music and combat system with great potential so why did you ruin it Squaresoft?
Is it to sit back and look on good graphics?... no
Is it to listen to good music?... not really
Is it to listen to a good story?... Well thats important but its not everything
The most important thing about a game is the gameplay! And even though FF10 has an excellent combat system you never get to try it out because of a non-existing level of challenge! I played through the game to the last boss but I can't remember that I ever had to think about what command to use, because the battles was so easy u could play through most of the game just buy holding down the X button, when each character had attacked the fight was over... And if any character ever got damaged you just switched it to someone else with full HP without wasting a turn, it almost dosnt even fells like you are playing!
You almost didn't even had to use healing spells or potions since you got healed full HP and MP at each save point, and the save points come close! And I mean really close, every 5 minutes or so. Squaresoft has truly ruined this game by making it far too easy!
This game could only be recommended to complete beginners, its definitely not for people looking for a challenge. And how hard could it possibly be for the professional programmers at squaresoft to make another difficulty level, lots of other games have "Easy", "Normal" and "Hard" difficulty levels, why can't this one have it?!
