Final Fantasy X is a good game. It redesigns a LOT about the Final Fantasy system--no over-world, and the battle system now takes place based on turn progression instead of whoever gets their little meter charged up first. There's a lot of strategery to it, and the game isn't as ridiculously unbalanced as the older games.
But see, the main thing I hate about RPGs, and the thing that in turn causes me to dislike most RPGs entirely, is turn-based combat. To me, that's just not fun; it's boring.
