Make your own graphs guys!

Final Fantasies can't be rated on less than two axes.

I was wondering if anyone would catch the double joke!

There are precious few primary ax-wielders through the FF franchise let alone two in one game.

Also what part of FFX's story was good? The part where you realize your daddy is a giant black blob? The part where you fight Seymour for the 50th time?

FFX built a very interesting world. You had this old, predominant, and largely corrupted religion predicated around the existence of an immense monster who would show up every so often to wreck civilization.

So Chrono Trigger then?

Nobody worshipped Lavos, in fact hardly anybody knew about him except some of the monster descendants who knew that Magus tried to summon him in the Middle Ages. But all they knew is that he would supposedly help them win the war against Guardia, they had no idea that he was millions of years old and part of a race that destroys the planet they're on when they reach their full maturity, or that Magus was summoning him to try and kill him as an act of vengeance for losing Schala.

Don't forget the Reptites!

I don't really consider the two stories comparable, but if the only take away was that FFX was just like Chrono Trigger, that's pretty hearty praise for FFX

Wat? Azala knew that the Reptites were going to be wiped out when Lavos landed because they couldn't survive the coming ice age. Although you'd think a 65 million year long Ice Age would probably wipe out a prehistoric human civilization too. They certainly didn't worship Lavos.

Actually the game never really delves into Azala at all. She recognizes the gate key as some form of advanced technology, and presumably she sent her forces to attack the Laruba village, but she never really gets any exposition. The best thing I can guess is that she wanted to wipe out the Humans before Lavos fell so that they wouldn't inherit the planet after the Reptites died.

I don't know why you are arguing with me, I was making a joke while agreeing with you.

I think he meant the people from the Magic Ages who were basically siphoning from Lavos to power their wonderful civilization. The dynamic is clearly different from FFX though.
