What is Final Fantasy X?
This is a pretty dumb question if you’ve ever played video games, but Final Fantasy X is the tenth (numbered) installment of the Final Fantasy series. It’s for the Playstation 2 and it's a turn-based Japanese RPG, also known as a Storyfight Game.

Who the hell are you guys?
The three of us are all gamers, though none of us have played Final Fantasy X within the last five years. In fact, bandunk has NEVER played Final Fantasy X. For this reason, we will be stumbling through the game and possibly dying repeatedly. Take note: this is not an informational walkthrough and will not be treated as such. That said, we will be really playing the game and we will get through the whole thing. (Note: if it really comes down to it, we may do some grinding off camera, but from what I remember it isn't really a problem in this game.)

Who should watch this? Can I watch it, can I please, mistas?!
You should watch our FFX Let’s Play if you:
- Like/Hate FFX but have a sense of humor
- Know what a Shoopuff is
- Have a physical deformity
- Enjoy high-fiving your Dad
- Think Seymour Guado is a good porn name
- Have been a victim of identity theft

You should not watch this Let’s Play if you:
- Have written Final Fantasy slash fiction
- Want to know SWEET GAME HINTS
- Don’t like belts and fishnet clothing
- Are a cat

How often will you update?
We are likely going to update twice a week, though this may change or vary depending on both our schedules and the state of our respective inebriations.

How long will your updates be?
We’re shooting for roughly 30 minutes per installment, though some may be up to an hour if we get stuck in the middle of an area with no save point. Don’t be surprised if this happens somewhat often.

In what format is this LP?
We're big fans of MST3K, so you’ll be seeing and hearing the game with accompanying audio commentary by the three of us. We do not currently plan on adding any text/subtitles or editing the video or audio in any way. None of the commentary is done in post, so if the house burns down in the middle of recording, you’ll get to find out what it sounds like to be on fire.

Why does your compression/audio/commentary/whatever suck?
Do to my drinking a technical oversight, the first 7 episodes were recorded at 320x240 instead of the planned 640x480. Since we recorded the commentary on the same audio track as the game, we would have to re-record each of them to get the better video. We feel that much of the humor in our commentary stems from the fact that we haven't played this game in a long time, and is thus a surprise to us. To be honest the videos don't really look that bad, and we corrected the darkness problem so if you're having trouble watching it get glasses or something.

Ep 8 and onward have been recorded in glorious 640x480, so you can look forward to that as we release them.


Note: New stuff will be added in as they enter the game. All information will correspond with our progress, minus what we forgot or didn’t care about.

Playable Characters


Tidus (LP Name: Rűsty)
The star player of the Zanarkand Abes! Tidus is simple-minded and doesn’t seem to understand what’s going on most of the time. His favorite things are Blitzball and food, but he could probably be entertained by a ball-and-paddle for weeks, so take that as you will. He was transported to Spira during an attack on Zanarkand by Sin, which occurred during (you guessed it) a Blitzball match. He has unerringly found himself an unofficial member of Yuna's "summoner party," which isn't as much a party as it is a group of idiots wandering aimlessly


Rikku
We don’t know a whole lot about Rikku yet, other than that she works on a boat and likes to treasure hunt. She helped Tidus out a bit by not killing him, until he was sucked into a wormhole for the second time in like ten minutes. She and her boat friends speak a weird language that isn’t English. However, unlike her cohorts, she is also fluent in English, making her bilingual and one of the least stupid people so far in the game.


Auron
It seems that Auron has known Tidus for a long time, but the connection between them is pretty unclear right now. As far as we can tell, he seems to enjoy standing around and speaking cryptically. One thing we know he hates is putting on his clothes correctly, because he leaves one of his arms hanging instead of using both sleeves on his coat. Auron (along with Jehct) were Braska's (Yuna's father) guardians 10 years ago.


Yuna
The game’s female lead and only playable summoner. She is caring and generally puts others before herself, most likely to gain acceptance despite her insecurities caused by having different colored eyes. She is the daughter of the last High Summoner to defeat Sin (Lord Braska, her father). In battle, she is primarily useful as a healer and to summon dudes.


Wakka
This guy loves Blitzball. He loves it so much that he doesn’t even use a weapon in battle, opting to instead throw a ball at his opponents. Wakka has a chip on his shoulder due to the death of his brother, Chappu, awhile before the game begins. He’s noticeable due to his wacky hair, tan skin, and extremely ambiguous accent, brudda.


Lulu
Man, talk about a bitch. This chick seems to hate everything. Probably the smartest of the group, Lulu is the resident black mage, and one of the most useful playable characters (currently, anyway). She can’t stand Tidus, though that probably shouldn’t be held against her. She was engaged to Chappu before he was killed, which might be explain why she has sand in her vag.


Kimari
A 7 foot tall lion man called a Ronso, he apparently babysat Yuna when she was younger. He has the personality of a rock and is pretty useless for battles, but makes up for this by generating hilarious fan-fiction.

Non-Playable Characters


Jecht
Funniest character, hands down. He’s Tidus’ dad, a really good Blitzball player, and a total prick. Jecht disappeared from Zanarkand ten years ago, but apparently he showed up in Spira and became a guardian for Yuna’s dad. Ain’t that some shit? Word is he died the last time Sin got killed, but Auron and Rűsty know what really happened. HE’S THE BEST!


Seymour Guado
He’s a Maester of Yevon. Apparently 'Maester' means 'VIP who can summon hellspawn'. It seems like he’s pretty important to the story, but not as important as his hair and voice though. He has the hots for Yuna.


Sin
Who knows what the hell this thing is. This is a giant monster and everyone is afraid of it, and it seems to show up at inopportune times to fuck shit up for no reason. It seems to be a major plot component, since the whole world pretty much seems based around fighting it. Also, Sin can travel by both air and water, so it can show up just about anywhere.  Auron revealed to Rűsty that every time Sin is defeated by the Final Summoning, the guardian sacrificed for said summoning becomes the new version of Sin. The last guardian happened to be Jecht. 


Our hero, Rűsty, was playing an action-packed Blitzball match in his home-town of Zanarkand when Sin (a giant monster that likes smashing things) attacked the town and sucked him up along with Auron. After waking up in Spira and a short stint on a boat with Rikku and her henchman, Rűsty was sucked into yet another vortex, finally landing on a beach in Besaid. Instantly befriending Wakka due to their common love for Blitzing, Rűsty quickly found himself traveling with bitchingly hot summoner Yuna and her entourage. Following another run-in with Sin and a quick stop to grab another Aeon, the group finally landed in Luca where Yuna was promptly kidnapped. After a dareing rescue involving a crane, Yuna was freed allowing Rűsty to play in the championship game of the blitzball tournament. Due to some sketchy scorekeeper and blatant favoritism by the refs, Rűsty and Wakka lost the tournament. With nothing else in his life worth living for, he decides to be Yuna's guardian. Around this time Auron shows up and reveals to Rűsty that  Sin is Jecht . Rűsty takes the news by flipping out, Auron calls him a pussy, and they both join Yuna as guardians.

To continue her pilgrimage, Yuna and Co. finds themselves traveling again. After pushing a monster off a cliff, the group find themselves at the battle of Normandy, where Sin shows up and kills a bunch of guys. The group gets emo over the whole ordeal, and pushes on to the lightning temple in a somber mood. After more dumb switch puzzles Yuna gets a new pony aeon and sleeps in, raising spirits somewhat. After more walking they reach the Moonflow, a big river with a dumb name, and pass over it on a shoopuff(also big and dumb). On the way over, some Al Bhed try to kidnap Yuna (again) and fail (again). The group later meets up with Rikku (who failed to kidnap Yuna) and is punished by being invited to the party (by Yuna). I'm honestly getting tired of updating this really dumb story so just watch the videos or go to gamefaqs.
