The reminiscing of the mediocre nostalgia

With the start of the school quarter, moving and other various things in the way i haven't been able to post, but now with everything settled i have the time and even better, a treasure trove of nostalgic PS2 titles now at my disposal! Oddly enough out of the titles i had but with no working PS2 or the games i have access now to the one that kept jumping out at me to play and actually finish was Final Fantasy 12. The list of people who actually liked 12 that i know is hilariously small, which is unfortunate as i actually enjoyed it. When compared to 10 or 7 it's pretty terrible, but as with 13. if you look at it by itself and don't compare it to previous titles I find it to be a fairly fun game. Yes the majority of the game as far as a final fantasy title goes is very mediocre, just remember they made 11 and 14, then it'll look like a masterpiece. 12 at least had a semi interesting plot line, some pretty bad ass characters and a unique, slightly annoying and different but overall...neat...combat system. It makes it worth chugging through and actually beating. In the end there are probably better games to invest in at the time, but hell i want to beat it so off to play it some more i go.
