Yevon's lie was obvious to Tidus from the start, because he was on the outside looking in. He wasn't indoctrinated by the religion from childhood like everyone else was. Even from the first time he learned of Sin and the Crusaders. "You've been fighting Sin for over 1,000 years and you still haven't beat it?!" He knew right then that whatever the church of Yevon was doing and whatever the crusaders were doing wasn't working out. 1,000 years of the same thing and no change. Even the crusaders he spoke to had never thought of it that way.
Too bad Sin/Yu Yevon comes back in the novels and the upcoming FF X-3 😂 Seems like the plot of 10 is more complicated than the black and white you make it out to be 😉
@@Maniac742 X-2 and the novels don't exist for me. Maybe the intro with Yuna singing (I pretend it's the real one singing), but that's it. And the other girls are protecting Yuna from zealot fans.
Jecht has a pretty interesting storyline about his alcoholism and his transition to becoming a better person while in Spira. He became a hero for sure.
Yep, thats the very definition of denial. Not hope. Real Hope is when no matter how dark bleak things are, you KNOW that theres a light at the end of the tunnel just waiting for you.
Auron knew all along the truth of the pilgrimage. However, he opted to stay mum. He wanted the group to see the harsh reality for themselves and make their own judgements. He didn't want to indoctrinate them and tell them what to do like what Yevon, the religion did. I always liked this about Auron. Strong, silent, but wise.
I know, same with Wakka. They both were strict believers in the teaching of Yevon and when they learn the cold truth, it’s like “what do we do now? Our whole lives have been a lie” so it’s makes you feel for them.
It was so sad. At the end of the memory where he was slashing at his old self was the only time Auron showed any type of emotion in the whole game 6:14
Auron's biggest failure, his regret, helping Tidus was his way of atoning for not stopping his father from sacrificing himself to become a faith and becoming the next sin
I don't get it, he was a young man when he was killed right? why is he older now if he's been dead the whole time? did he continue to age even though he was dead?
Not to mention Wakka’s brother, Lulu’s fiancé, gave his life for this very cause, which is what led to them having their squabbles at the beginning of the game.
@@geico15minutesI'm sure there was some heresy somewhere. Look at all the churches ordaining gay weddings despite it being anti-Biblical. Rather than abandoning the faith due to principle, they try to alter it.
I never actually just thought about it: an entire religion and world based on an alien visitor with megalomaniac tendencies. There’s so many layers to the villains and the story, like it’s not all about Seymour, or Sin, even Jecht is just a toy in the evil game. But it says a lot about society, we’re all just someone else’s pawn whether we like or know it or not. I think the story of Spira is so unique in FF. The Japanese have always been fascinated by Christian mythos the same way we find Shinto interesting and different, and it’s always been a subtle theme especially in the more medieval worlds of FF. But X takes it to a whole new level. Still playing this game 20 years later 🥰
It's really great at conveying topics and themes found within Buddhist and Shinto practices and concepts such as reincarnation, the reality of suffering in the world and the cyclical nature of how events and patterns of behavior repeat. Having Tidus be an outsider goes a bit further when you realize Zanarkand and its inhabitants were "dreamed up" again from the prior remnants of Zanarkand. The sequel goes a lot further with this concept with how Tidus and Yuna essentially had past lives in the form of Shuyin and Lenne.
Yu Yevon actually was the leader of Zanarkand and a great summoner During the war against Bevelle, in order to allow the citizens of the city to survive, he turned themselves into fayths and summoned dream zanarkand, becoming then sin
Lulu: If you want everything, you'll end up with nothing. Tidus: But I want everything! This exchange makes so much more sense when you know the ending.
He did get everything. All it cost was himself. You can't have it all, but you can sure give it all. You just have to be willing to be offer yourself up in return.
The worst thing in the remaster to me is how off the audio is with the lips syncing. It totally takes you out of it. How can the game from 2001 have better lip syncing than the remaster a decade later?!
They all without a thought said “killing an unsent significantly important person who is the conducted the whole “finale “every time a successful summoner and her guardians reach…the end of the earth apparently “ Yuna was prepared and the other 6 said we finna back you up till the end” I was like wtf is happening” this fight with this theme was bigger than Seymour at Gagazet and just a bit more above the Crusader and Al bhed joint operation that ended in blood gore and death
And Jecht did think of something. while fighting Yu Yevon's control, he awoke his son from the dream. holding back as they ventured deep inside Sin and freed him and destroyed Yu Yevon.
As a kid I always thought Auron was the one who broke the cycle. After playing through the game as an adult, I understand it was Jecht. If you need me to explain I will, I just don’t feel like typing that much right now.
It's just like The Sith rule of 2 Anakin joined the Sith and eventually killed his master and then he died thus destroyed The Order of the Sith. With no more Aeons Yu Yevon can't make another Sin
I do not understand how anyone can deny this being the best Final Fantasy. It's story, it's acting, it's character interactions... Powerful stuff, even if it's not your favourite combat system... It's just so intense. I don't even like Tidus on a personal level. He's whiny. He's an adult-child. But he's necessary and he's right in questioning this dogma.
I know I need to mess around abit to get the chance to gain the aeon that Seymour has when I do each cloyister trail while I get yojimbo and the 3 magus sisters
Assuming he compiled all the Al bhed primers and got the 99 underdog secrets from rin on the air ship. I was surprised too how over leveled the party is lol
I have been wondering.. is it the entire time most summoners only bring one guardian with them. Except for Auron and Jecht which causes one of them to come back, how come no other guardians who weren’t chosen as the faith didn’t come back and tell Yevon’s lie? Don’t tell me Auron is the first (even he was technically killed).
Technically she only reveals the lie when the group refuses the final aeon and ask if there's another way. Most of the previous High Summoners and Guardians were 100% immersed in the teachings- Braska's Group was the first that probably considered doing something different/noticed the bullshit and hypocrisy because both Braska and Auron were outcasts from Yevon and Ject was a total outsider, and even they still went along with the Summoning. It only took the combined forces of Auron realizing the truth, Tidus being too obnoxious for his own good, the current generation of Yevon Clergy being ESPECIALLY corrupt and rotten, and Yuna being just a very stubborn and trusting to take down 1000 years of tradition and dogma.
@@davidmiles1741nah you forgot the most important fact. Summoner only had 1 guardian. Braska broke that rule when Jing and Auron met Jecht. Braska saw it as a sign since Jecht was ranting about being from Zanarkand. Yuna followed her father's footsteps and asked all her close friends to join and then she met Tidus doing the same shit Jecht did while also claiming to be his son.
It's because the summoner were only allowed to have 1 guardian. Braska was a renegade to Yevon with auron as og guardian. They met Jecht during their travels, a man rambling about being Zanarkand. Braska broke code and took him on as another guardian the first that's ever happened in Spira. Yuna mearly followed her father's legacy and example.
@GeorgiaAndrea It's been a long darned time since I played it, so I don't know the lore very well if I ever did, but I recall another summoner having two Guardians, Yassu or something like that, the guy who becomes a tour guide in X2. Also, iirc, the other summoner on Yuna's journey, only had one Guardian (Bartello?), but she gloated about it, which reads to me, that 1 Guardian isn't the expected norm. Both of them were after Braska, so I guess it's possible Braska changed the cycle in a small way. Let's also consider the Magus Sisters, a trio of fayth, may likely be seperate people fused in one rite, though that may have occured at Yevon's rise, before the current summoner pilgrimage doctrine was established.
Its possible this is the first time anyone ever asked if Sin would always come back. Young Auron said it but Braska it seems never actually confirmed it like Yuna did. Or if anyone else did Yunalesca probably killed them to keep them quiet.
The only thing I can’t understand is how almost no one knows this truth. Haven’t any of the other guardians ever come back from Zanarkand with this news? Was Braska the first summoner ever to travel with more than one guardian? If Auron didn’t return to confront her, she would have let him go and he could have told anyone. Has everyone up until this very point just been too scared/brainwashed by Yevon to share the truth of the final Aeon with anyone? I just find it odd that Yunalesca is so willing to share some of this crucial info, especially the fact that Sin can NEVER be fully defeated and thus the entire foundation of the religion is a lie. It doesn’t seem to make sense.
This port isn’t a very good one. Yuna’s big speech animation are void of emotion. In the original PS2 version was fully animated with more convincing facial expressions
Yu Yevon was Yunalesca's father, I'm willing to bet she was in on the whole plan. The fact she is still there after making the first final aeon and all just to keep the rest of Spira in a permanent loop. This was her idea of punishing the world for what happened to her home.
@animathehallowed1380 Easy. I had break weapon limit and replaced the sphere grid with proper stat additions. All +4s instead of the stupid 1s and 2s base game gives you as you level.
Their whole religion was false all along, they're not destroying Sin, they were just giving it a new body, Yu yeven was the true main villain, the one behind Sin
replace the idea of sin needing to be fixed by a final aeon which causes the person to die (hense die for the sins) with blood sacrifice and the sacrifice of Jesus and the critiques of the game makes about Christianity becomes very clear.
Not sure what you mean. In the old testament it was practice to attach "sin" to an animal or something else to carry your sin. Jesus did not believe in such. So his death was the final death for our sins, and he subsequently rose from the dead. I wouldn't see this as a critique so much as a parallel. This is further evidenced by Tidus going against the teachings and stopping sin once and for all, knowing that if Sin is eliminated, so well he. But he knew it would be the last time. And he is them, ahem, brought back in X-2. I'm not saying Tidus is Jesus. But the parallel is clear.
yes but what did the final death accomplish with Jesus? he claimed he conquered sin and died for it but yet sin is still a issue on earth. Let look at why the summoners had to keep going and dying in the first place. it was to conquer sin, slay it and make a human sacrifice for the final aeon (which is exactly what essentially happened with Jesus, a human sacrifice as the last sacrifice yet it never truly brought a eternal calm). In a sense everyone died for the sins but until they literally killed the creator who made this the cycle was just constantly repeating itself. In the lore a summoner had to die, if they were to just up and come back that would mean they never quelled sin. Jesus did which I would say proved the idea he never truly conquered sin to begin with (further proven by the fact its still happening) Granted sins man aspect only appears in the idea of death and what comes after which is what yunalesca wanted to keep doing. give people hope, thats really all jesus death accomplished. I see this all as a critique of the Christian ideology. I also do not see the parale your talking about because they stopped sin by literally killing the person who created it, knowing by doing so he would die himself. Thats not the same as jesus story cause last I checked Jesus didnt kill his father who started this cycle in the first place @@Kaboomboo
@@kemeticmonk6416hm, I guess you could call it a critique of the religion but I more see it as showing parallels to real life, and the impact that a religious society can have on people vs being in a completely indulgent society. In the first place Jesus was never supposed to end sin at all, just provide eternal forgiveness for humanity. Either way, if it was a critique, there was still great suffering for the main character in a world without “Sin” and I’m sure for many others of Zanarkand. It was an indulgent world which you could say even mimics today’s world now, to an extreme of course. And in that sense it was that in Spira but in an extreme form of a sacrificial religion. It really just shows two extremes of humanity and that there is suffering on both sides, at least that’s my opinion.
X-2 and the novels don't exist for me. Maybe the intro with Yuna singing (I pretend it's the real one singing), but that's it. And the other girls are protecting Yuna from zealot fans. Edit: "1000 words" is also canon, but she got the memories for that song without going through the adventure, and uses it as her finishing act.
@@killeing the good ending and the kid's return completely ruin this game's message. Plus, comments against Yuna's outfit are hypocritical, given Yunalesca's outfit (or lack of it). That's kinda annoying too. That lack of attention to detail. Fine, the song and its flashback sequence are canon too. The rest of the game doesn't have to be. Yuna could have gotten those memories from her previous incarnation back during her time turning herself into a star.
@@JabamiLain how does the good ending and tidus's return ruin it for you? For me it was a rather welcome surprise as it explained the post-credit bit at the end of FFX of Tidus rising out of the water- i never knew that meant he was alive after the end of FFX until X-2 came out. Also, the comments issue you have sounds more like an issue you have with the fanbase rather than the game itself :/
@@killeing oh ! The comments I was talking about were in-game. But that's not the main reason. Also, the post-credit scene was clearly supposed to be open to interpretation. The proof is that the novels show "X-2" was a last minute project, because how else was Sin supposed to return, if the ideas supposedly don't come out of the blue for him, with no organization in sight ? There was no specific plan for that scene ! Wasn't the whole point of the first game to learn to let go ? When did it suddenly turn into "Live your power fantasy and ressurect the dead" ? And before you use that argument, no, I hate stories in which heroes get ressurected, especially when the ressurection holds no consequence for the universe's structure. Therefore, I'm consistent with my beliefs.
It killed me that their solution to this was just to murder her. I feel like in this game that was their solution to a lot of their problems. "Just murder 'em"
She was already dead though and has been for a thousand years. Remember, a summoner dies when using the Final Aeon and she was the first to use that power. Like Auron, she was an Unsent.
@@dadevi Yeah, not sure what people are complaining about, these scenes always had poorly matched audio and video. The rose tinted glasses of nostalgia seem to be back in fashion.
Honestly, I’m surprised that Lulu didn’t get a boob reduction, like Tifa did. That’s the main reason why I’m against an FF10 Remake. If they do that shit, ever again, there will be a rain of ten thousand torches and pitchforks (at the very least) on their main office.
Some people are rather demoralised these days. They're "perfectly fine" with pronouned character creators and lack of booba outside of predatory camgirls.

This port isn’t a very good one. Yuna’s big speech animation are void of emotion. In the original PS2 version was fully animated with more convincing facial expressions
Yu Yevon was Yunalesca's father, I'm willing to bet she was in on the whole plan. The fact she is still there after making the first final aeon and all just to keep the rest of Spira in a permanent loop. This was her idea of punishing the world for what happened to her home.
Lol well someone is severely overleveled. You hung out a LONG time on the Bevelle bridge?
Play time for the file was under 16 hours at this point
@@OfTheVeil how were you popping 19k hits without post game stats and limit break weapon abilities?
@animathehallowed1380 Easy. I had break weapon limit and replaced the sphere grid with proper stat additions. All +4s instead of the stupid 1s and 2s base game gives you as you level.
Also mega death don’t work if everyone dead

@@azazel166if everyone's dead that's called game over 😂
9:35 HA
HA
Lady Yunalesca is the reason for my anger issues. I will not be told differently no matter how many PHDs you have 😂
How come yunalwsca never required a sending
Same way that maesta Mika didn’t I’m guessing
So after all this time Yunalesca said is lie about Yevon wkwk
Lol Auron sounds like Morpheus here
Their whole religion was false all along, they're not destroying Sin, they were just giving it a new body, Yu yeven was the true main villain, the one behind Sin
replace the idea of sin needing to be fixed by a final aeon which causes the person to die (hense die for the sins) with blood sacrifice and the sacrifice of Jesus and the critiques of the game makes about Christianity becomes very clear.
Not sure what you mean. In the old testament it was practice to attach "sin" to an animal or something else to carry your sin. Jesus did not believe in such. So his death was the final death for our sins, and he subsequently rose from the dead. I wouldn't see this as a critique so much as a parallel.
This is further evidenced by Tidus going against the teachings and stopping sin once and for all, knowing that if Sin is eliminated, so well he. But he knew it would be the last time. And he is them, ahem, brought back in X-2. I'm not saying Tidus is Jesus. But the parallel is clear.
yes but what did the final death accomplish with Jesus? he claimed he conquered sin and died for it but yet sin is still a issue on earth. Let look at why the summoners had to keep going and dying in the first place. it was to conquer sin, slay it and make a human sacrifice for the final aeon (which is exactly what essentially happened with Jesus, a human sacrifice as the last sacrifice yet it never truly brought a eternal calm). In a sense everyone died for the sins but until they literally killed the creator who made this the cycle was just constantly repeating itself.
In the lore a summoner had to die, if they were to just up and come back that would mean they never quelled sin. Jesus did which I would say proved the idea he never truly conquered sin to begin with (further proven by the fact its still happening)
Granted sins man aspect only appears in the idea of death and what comes after which is what yunalesca wanted to keep doing. give people hope, thats really all jesus death accomplished. I see this all as a critique of the Christian ideology.
I also do not see the parale your talking about because they stopped sin by literally killing the person who created it, knowing by doing so he would die himself. Thats not the same as jesus story cause last I checked Jesus didnt kill his father who started this cycle in the first place
@@Kaboomboo
@@kemeticmonk6416hm, I guess you could call it a critique of the religion but I more see it as showing parallels to real life, and the impact that a religious society can have on people vs being in a completely indulgent society.
In the first place Jesus was never supposed to end sin at all, just provide eternal forgiveness for humanity.
Either way, if it was a critique, there was still great suffering for the main character in a world without “Sin” and I’m sure for many others of Zanarkand. It was an indulgent world which you could say even mimics today’s world now, to an extreme of course. And in that sense it was that in Spira but in an extreme form of a sacrificial religion.
It really just shows two extremes of humanity and that there is suffering on both sides, at least that’s my opinion.

unironically thats exactly what yunalesca has in the plot, daddy issues with a make everyone feel guilt complex @@cnkclark
Your team is too overpowered to make the video extra interesting, but it is informative.
X-2 and the novels don't exist for me. Maybe the intro with Yuna singing (I pretend it's the real one singing), but that's it. And the other girls are protecting Yuna from zealot fans.
Edit: "1000 words" is also canon, but she got the memories for that song without going through the adventure, and uses it as her finishing act.
Hey! Dont go bad mouthing X-2; it was a very fun game and I always tear up listening to "1000 Words"!!!!
@@killeing the good ending and the kid's return completely ruin this game's message.
Plus, comments against Yuna's outfit are hypocritical, given Yunalesca's outfit (or lack of it). That's kinda annoying too. That lack of attention to detail.
Fine, the song and its flashback sequence are canon too. The rest of the game doesn't have to be. Yuna could have gotten those memories from her previous incarnation back during her time turning herself into a star.
@@JabamiLain how does the good ending and tidus's return ruin it for you? For me it was a rather welcome surprise as it explained the post-credit bit at the end of FFX of Tidus rising out of the water- i never knew that meant he was alive after the end of FFX until X-2 came out.
Also, the comments issue you have sounds more like an issue you have with the fanbase rather than the game itself :/
@@killeing oh ! The comments I was talking about were in-game. But that's not the main reason.
Also, the post-credit scene was clearly supposed to be open to interpretation. The proof is that the novels show "X-2" was a last minute project, because how else was Sin supposed to return, if the ideas supposedly don't come out of the blue for him, with no organization in sight ? There was no specific plan for that scene !
Wasn't the whole point of the first game to learn to let go ? When did it suddenly turn into "Live your power fantasy and ressurect the dead" ? And before you use that argument, no, I hate stories in which heroes get ressurected, especially when the ressurection holds no consequence for the universe's structure. Therefore, I'm consistent with my beliefs.
FF10 did a great job calling out organized religion on it's sh;t.
It killed me that their solution to this was just to murder her. I feel like in this game that was their solution to a lot of their problems. "Just murder 'em"
She attacks you
She was already dead though and has been for a thousand years.
Remember, a summoner dies when using the Final Aeon and she was the first to use that power. Like Auron, she was an Unsent.
Hello Carmilla from Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust.
Yunalesca is the ultimate boomer in FFX
I prefer the old voices
The remake really destroyed the facial movements its really bad
Its not remake , but remaster. One day ff x will get remake and it will blow everybody once again just like ff x did long ago
They always looked bad. The facial movements matched the original Japanese voice acting, not the English dub.
@@malyman316And the cutscenes will be different.
@@dadevi Yeah, not sure what people are complaining about, these scenes always had poorly matched audio and video. The rose tinted glasses of nostalgia seem to be back in fashion.
@@dadeviThe Japanese dub*
How to say the same thing in fewer words.
Honestly, I’m surprised that Lulu didn’t get a boob reduction, like Tifa did. That’s the main reason why I’m against an FF10 Remake. If they do that shit, ever again, there will be a rain of ten thousand torches and pitchforks (at the very least) on their main office.
I'm sure they'll be truly horrified by a mob of foreigners ready to to stick it to them for the reduced breasts.
Some people are rather demoralised these days. They're "perfectly fine" with pronouned character creators and lack of booba outside of predatory camgirls.
Imagine caring about something so utterly superficial.
Lulu is always lovely.
