Summary

Final Fantasy X-2 is a very silly game created 100 percent for straight male fan service, but for all that, one that manages to be a much better game than it has any right to be. The game designers went out of their way to create many new models and redesigns, giving Spira a fresh face, as long as you are only looking at the three main characters, their many new outfits, and their three gay male counterparts, and not anyone or anything else in the game.

Relationships

  • Yuna/the Universe: This is the most important relationship in the game, because the plot basically doesn't function without the idea of everyone in Spira being in love with Yuna (except, notably, Beclem), either because she literally saved all of their lives, or because they are really into Mary Sues with exposed buttcheeks.
  • Yuna/Rikku/Paine: Obviously, this one is pretty important. Rikku has ostensibly always had a thing for her first cousin, but it took the addition to their team of butch lesbian Paine to really make her start acting on it. This game was created, by men, to put existing, beloved female characters in slutty outfits and situations in which they could make out, and in those respects it is a phenomenal success.
  • Gippal/Baralai: It would be more fitting to call this a gay male three-way to complement the lesbian three-way of YRP, but recapper consensus is that Nooj is gross and ruins the fun of hot Baralai and Gippal humping each other, so screw him.

Tropes

  • All Talk: Heroes' actions being completely at odds with their stated goals (sphere hunting, doing anything but actual sphere hunting)
  • Two ambiguously gay trios
  • Lazy character modeling (Wakka, Lulu, actually everyone in Spira except for YRP and the new characters)
  • Horrible, horrible mini-games
  • Yuna is maybe the worst Mary Sue ever
  • Fuck the stupid 100 percent and its reliance on doing things badly or doing things in a specific, random way.
  • Fat guy and skinny guy comic relief duo (Logos and Ormi)
  • Overhyped MacGuffin items (the AWESOM-O sphere)
