FF8 GFs vs FF10 Aeons

Started by BackFire2 pages

I liked the gameplay element with Aeons in FFX. It was more then just an elaborate magic attack, as they've always been in prior FF games, it actually required strategy and tact to use them well in X.

Eden does over 30,000 points of damage with one hit. He was the first thing to exceed the 9,999 limit with one attack. Eden would nuke them all.

If they cast Protect then the damage would be decreased significantly. Also, they have the option of slowing down the GFs while greatly hastening themselves, so chances are, the Aeons will be making the first move. Anima's Oblivion would be an instant kill to all the GFs.

Bull. Eden's shown to be blowing up planets in it's attack. and 2nd, you're assuming they'd fight the same way they do in the games. And half of 30k is still 15k, which could be enough to one shot most of them. Not to mention Gilgy and Odin's one shotters. Seems like a curbstomp in favor of FF8 by virtue of superior firepower and numbers.

So how else would they fight?

[sarcasm]15,000 is greater than 99,999, and the Gaurdian Forces will make the first move seeing as how they're slowed down and the Aeons are significantly sped up.[/sarcasm]

Means nothing most of the FFX Aeons' specials are instant kills in battle. Also if an Aeon dies, another can resurrect it, but we don't have to worry about that happening.

You obviously know little about what FFX Aeons can do, and don't think of telling me I don't know about the Gaurdian Forces since I've played and finished VIII long before I began playing X.
