Replaying FFX, and I've gotten all the celestial weapons but Wakka's. Well, I got his weapon, but now I have to play Blitzball for the next century to use it. The last thing I need to get is his sigil, and that's it. Well, other than Status Reels and Auroch Reels... I'm about 5 games into the league for Status Reels, and I'm on I think my 18th game overall. I am so tired of playing Blitzball. Haha, I think it can be really fun, I just wish it didn't take SO long to get all of the stuff from it. Anyone else think Blitzball just wears on you after a while?

Definitely. Finished it all up last night. So glad to be finished with it. Honestly, even though the Chocobo Race gets a lot of hate, I personally think it's MUCH better than both Blitzball and lightning dodging.
At least the Chocobo Race is like... 40 seconds and then you're done and can try again later. The lightning just gets more and more nerve-wracking as time goes on. And Blitzball just takes forever...

During my blitzball grind I just muted the TV and watched movies/TV shows on my computer. Helps pass the time a bit.

I think it can be really fun, I just can't play it for crazy long stretches. There are three things that I think would be improvements: 1) If leagues were shorter, I would play it more. 2) If the Wakka prizes didn't take hours to obtain, I would play it more. 3) Most importantly, if the non-Wakka prizes were better, I would play it more. Although some of the techs you can gain are super nice.

I can understand that the sub prizes could use some work. Such as adding spoof weapons and bangles. Or limited edition items or hell even a magic spell sphere slot upgrade along with a single spell not commonly found in the story. Sort of like were you spend almost eternity in the gold saucer and the top 10 prizes feel worth the struggle to get. Other than that. I feel I need more music when vs a different team. Also a minor and major league tournament to get a chance to explore and play blitzball outside of Luca. Luca is nice bit I want to try a field in other places too. You work real hard on the visual quality of the game and you can't implement a different stage to play in. Come on... All and all that's all I want.

Except I want a couple other additions too haha. 3D play field would be nice. I really want non-fixed level ups for all the characters. I don't care so much if they finish with the same maxed stats (although maybe a modifier could be built in so it wouldn't be exactly the same), but almost every character doesn't get into their great level ups until after level 50. And that takes so long to get to that it isn't fun anymore. They could have made it easier to level up at that point, or introduced leveling up through wins or something. X-2 fixed it a little but I got real tired of seeing Botta go to like level 5 without a single defensive gain while I pick up Wedge and his attack goes up 5 points in 3 levels.

I feel I need more music when vs a different team. Oh man, I definitely agree with music. The first time you here the BGM for Blitzball, it's okay, but after several games, I just wanted to mute my TV and put on something else.
