Blitzball is the greatest FF mini game ever
>>329772710
I actually liked it. The grinding was difficult but it added to the experience to me at least.
>>329772710
The main thing I have against it is that you can't re-set the prizes, it would make getting the Jupiter sigil a lot less tedious
>>329772710
>first game is praying for the RNG to fuck you over as little as possible
>every game after that is "recruit a couple OP players and win"
Top that off with the whole gimmick of the game being 3D underwater football that doesn't utilize the 3D or part at all and it's not really a very good minigame
>>329773218
Not really you just have to get the one goal, then you can play defensive, passing between Letty and Jassu. You can have one Jecht shot in the second half, then get Wakka to do a poison shot if you manage to lure the qt defendes out
It's actually the worst one. Literally the only reason people like it is nostalgia. The game's mechanics are atrocious, disgusting and disastrous. I have played over 250 games of it to get all of Wakka's shit. I have never gotten a real response whenever I pointed out all its flaws on here.

>tfw resetting 80 times to try and win the first game
>>329774610
Apart from Keepers getting no exp, what are they?
>>329773203
You can?It resets your team too, though
>>329774674
Okay. It's a good thing I decided to save these on a notepad.
>shitty AI that swims in circles whenever opposing team players get out of their tiny range
>defense is automatic, leaving it to the terrible AI
>whenever stats are used, they're slightly randomized, rendering them mostly pointless
>incredibly easy if you get the jecht shot
>shallow in general, best strategy is bait all the opponent players to a spot, pass to tidus, and score
>incredibly grindy, slow, boring, whatever other word
>looks awful
>doesn't even use the concept of football in an underwater sphere well at all, they might as well be playing on a grass field
Should I keep going
>>329774667
>Make one goal
>Run away for the rest of the game
>>329772710
I loved it.
There needs to be more strategy but it was fun for the time it came out. I can't get into it anymore.
Nah, Chocobo Hot and Cold is where it's at.

I used, I think it was, brother as center, get the ball at the start and immediately shoot. Because his stats were top, he'd score 100% of the time. I think one game it was like 50+ to 0.
>>329774860
the stats aren't randomised they just have high uncertainty values (I remember seeing it ranges from +/-50%)
But slow and the bad AI I can agree with, though I've never had a problem with defenders not picking up on somebody
>not the RTS shit inside FF14
Verminion is GOAT.

>the stats aren't randomised they just have high uncertainty values
I guess I worded it poorly, but yeah that's what I meant. The point is that it makes most planning worthless.
>okay so i'm gonna pass to this guy and he should be able to break through this other guy
>oh he didn't because fuck me i guess

>Raudy blocks!

Well considering shit it and EVERY Final Fantasy mini-game is, that's not really saying much.
Nah it's shit
>>329774829
Yeah I'm not going to reset shit after I manage to steal Nimrook from the Al Bhed Psyches.
>lol 18 Catch at level 1
technically speaking I don't see how it's possible that Wakka managed to score a goal against them in the plot.
>>329777701
Which one is Raudy, if it's the RS, then Jassu has more then enough EN to take hits like a pro
It's kinda shit.
>First tournament
>Get blitzball, swim all the way inside your own net
>enemy AI just circles around, never tries to get the blitzball
>HALF-TIME
>Set Tidus' Jecht Shot

>Get Blitzball again
>Swim inside own goal again
>???
>bullshit
Were Tidus and Jecht people who lived actual lives and have real memories or were they created like 10 minutes before the start of the events of the game and all their memories are fake ones created by the Fayth's dream?
>>329777789
My winning strategy. It felt nice owning the shit out of other teams and devastating them.
>>329778026
Who gives a shit. The better question is how did Jecht end up in Spira
>>329777442
2 complex for me. I don't wanna spend forever learning the strengths and weaknesses of 200 different minions.
>>329778078
got lost on a fishing trip.
>>329778026
Do we have real memories or was the universe created 5 minutes ago with everything in its current state?
So, was Jecht just into tough love or was he actually trying to make Tidus hate him so he could kill him? That always sounded like bullshit to me.
>>329778138
Bullshit. The dream Zanarkand in Spira is all mystified and shit. Only Sin knows how to get in or out. That's why Jecht as Sin had to toss Teedus out of there.
>Put tidus mid
>He always gets the ball
>Jachet shot
>Put it in the tiny corner that never gets blocked
>Win every game 20-0
Easy.
>>329778228
Dream Zanarkand is a real, physical place conjured by the Fayth. It's located somewhere far out at sea, and is never found because Sin attacks anyone who gets close.
>>329778298
I fucking know. Except Sin isn't the only thing stopping people from finding it. It's also got some magic bullshit getting people lost or whatever. Sin is the only thing that knows how to get there.
>Not Triple Triad
>>329778395
Nah. You can just go there if you can get past sin. That's how Auron got there.
>>329778489
What are you on about? Auron literally said he rode on Sin to get there.
>>329778060
>>329777789
You mean THE winning strategy. They even sub Tidus out in the plot game because they realised you could faceroll everything with him.
>>329777901
goalie
>>329778298
no one bothered to make an expedition out to sea during the calm?
>>329777789
>get wedge
>20+ shooting, 20+ endurance
>break to whole team, shoot from own goal and score
>>329778824
good ol' wedge with his 3 pass and dogshit SH growth
>>329777969
Tidus needs to get exp so he can level up and use the jecht shot next time
How did Tidus and Auron know each other before the game's events?
>>329778960
He looked after him and was banging his mom on the side.
>>329778960
Wasn't Auron Jecht's friend
Wouldn't be a surprise if Tidus viewed him as a sort of an uncle
>>329779029
>>329779128
But he has to ride Sin to get to Zanarkand, wouldn't everyone have noticed in the past that there was a huge whale thing passing by
>>329779208
Well Yu Yevon resets Zanardkand every once in a while by destroying it.
