Why did they make his outfit so gross looking
>>
>>3902768
He's a teen professional sports player in a sport thats entirely underwater in a tropical sci fi city in the 2000s
You're a nerd, you're supposed to dislike how he looks.
Whats next? You're gonna make fun of the laughing scene?
>>
It's a team uniform, doofus.
>>
STOP THE FUCKING PRESSES! Never before in the decades since its release has it been pointed out that FF10 characters look ridiculous, now that OP has informed us of this it changes everything!!!
>>
>>3902776
lol, simping for tidus
>>
>>3902789
But nobody else on the team looked like this.

It's not, lol
>>3902768
Bit overdesigned. Has plenty of elements found in ff8. All in all ff has very hit or miss designs. Rather miss.
>>
>>3902865
It is. Every Zanarkand Abes team member has a varation of the outfit in yellow with the Abes logo. Jecht also has it.

You know the trope in time-travel movies, where the protagonist goes to the future and finds out that the fashion trends and outfits are all absolutely stupid and obnoxious? That's the reasoning I have always applied to Tidus' outfit, and in fact all of the fashion in FFX. It's another time, another world. Their clothes and styles are alien to us, and in a FANTASY world, that's okay. It's even good...

I also saw a video on youtube once where a HEMA instructor went over this specific outfit and found that if you replaced the modern-style fabrics and materials with fur and natural materials, you would actually have armor similar to what Aztec warriors wore...
>>
>>3902894
yeah everyone in the US army has the exact same uniform, right? No variations?
>>
>>3902905
BIPOC folx need they waivers because oppressive bigots don’t season they uniforms

Tidus is a chad; you're not. seethe more.

>>3902898
Aztec soldiers weren't actually wearing fur, generally

The most basic form of Aztec armor was a cotton padded vest or tunic, and then over that elite, higher status soldiers wore full body warsuits or skirted tunics/jackets made from thick cotton cloth as well

The outside surface of those suits and tunics was covered in a layer of feather mosaic, with the patterns and designs and colors that indicated rank, unit division etc being made by the different colors of feathers used to form the mosaic. That's how the Jaguar spot pattern worn by "Jaguar knights" would generally be made, with the wooden helmet (also covered in feather mosaic, precious stone and metal inlays, etc) just being carved to look like a Jaguar head

There is one source which asserts that commoners who earned the right to wear Jaguar style warsuits via battlefield merit had to make do with lesser quality warsuits made from actual Jaguar furs, but even if true, it certainly wouldn't just be a raw unprocessed hide/skin of a Jaguar, the fur would be fitted onto a full body suit still probably, the same way a fur coat is a proper garment just covered in furs.

Also "Jaguar knights" might not have even been a specific rank or military order, it may just be that a variety or ranks and offices could wear Jaguar patterned warsuits and helmets depending on the circumstance

He's swimming in boots. Fashion also has function.

Blitzball does get a bit rough. Also Spira is so oceanic that everyone's clothes are adapted to aquatic use, except for the ruling class cultists. Apparently jungle rot is just not a thing, but given the pyrefly ecology and general lack of pollution it's believable.
>>
he was suppose to be a plumber

>>3902941
They could turn into a jaguar thrive a day, couldn't they?

It's not only him. Plenty of FFX characters have trash designs.
>>
>>3903231

Fookin' auto correct
>>
>>3902768
From ffX the characters design went to shit, the only good character of X are auron(probably one of the best character of FF) and Lulu because of big booobs
>>
>>3903295
>From ffX the characters design went to shit
The italian dude who replaced Nomura is pretty good though.

I'm not aware of any belief like that off the top of my head. There were shapeshifters with/of spirit animals called Nahuals/Naguals though

I was just INTELLIGENT posting, but I'm pleasantly surprised I hit bully's eye.
>>
>>3902768
When FFX was still new, I had pants where the bottom halves could zip off so it became shorts. I and several other kids would sometimes just wear one pant leg to look like Tidus and we all thought it was super cool.
>>
>>3903574
Sounds like a bunch of nerds to me. Nerds did start multiply around the year 2000.

I liked what they did with Shuyin in X-2, being like a template for Tidus.
But they definitely take away the sportiness of the OG and lean more into him being a fighter.
>>
>>3902768
He's a dream. He's not entirely coherently put together.
Real reason is that forcing a 16h workday culture ends up with faggots running corporations.
>>
>>3908271
Say what you will, at least Tidus' design has curious details to look at. Then again Shuyin doesn't get much screentime so distracting clothes would be too much.
>>
It was honestly pretty common 2000 fashion. Every guy had capris, big sneakers, vague ocean inspired accessories
Its just weirdos holding some autistic grudge for 20 years
>>
>>3908468
Yeah, and the single gauntlet. Remember when wearing a single gauntlet was huge?
>>
>>3908472
Actually I do. Michael Jackson. Asymmetry was really big in general. It was a continuation of sprezzaturra.
>>
>>3908472
its like a sports guard. that's like the least objectionable thing about it. have you ever played a sport in your life

I wish this game was playable in 60fps. I'll never play it as long as it's locked to uggo-30
>>
>>3909852
Give lossless scaling on github a try. Worked pretty well with the PC version.

You're loss, I guess.

chinese people are fucked in they head

>>3902768
It's how we dressed in the early 2000s. Show some respect.
>>
>>3909852
I don't know if I pity or am jealous of people that can actually tell the difference between 30 and 60 FPS. It's the same shit.
>>
>>3910027
If you can’t tell, you should be glad, because then you’re happier with less and not dissatisfied. IMO, 30 looks like shit and feels bad, 60 is okay, 100 is great. I could maybe tell a slight difference between 100 and 144 but after that it’s all a meme. Definite diminishing returns.
>>
>>3910027
You're probably retard or a "le human eye can't see past le x amount of frames" semantics shitposter. Go compare the movement in, say, Law and Order or a movie to a Soap Opera.
>>
>>3910029
>>3910044
Nta, all it takes is being accustomed to 30 fps. I played on a laptop for a while and take a guess if 30 fps bothered me even with newish (10 year old) games.
>>
>>3910044
Old movies got away with a lower frame rate (24?) because they ran at a steady rate with no stuttering, and motion blurring between frames. Video games are a lot worse because the framerate can be unsteady, each frame is rendered discretely on the fly and not in advance, and a low framerate makes the input feel sluggish, stuttery, and unresponsive.
>>
>>3910044
Legitimately if they're not right next to each other I can't tell the difference between 30 and 60. Once you get below 30 it becomes more noticeable but that's really it.
>>
>>3902793
>changes everything!!!
... Everything!!!
>>3902768
Thx!!!
>>
>>3909852
If something that minor keeps you from playing it you didn't really want to.
>>
>>3910076
So you're retarded then.

the beginning of the end for cloud
poor cunt didn't stand a chance, they completely ruined his character rip
>>
You gotta understand, 2001 was a different time many of you may be too young to remember. It was the time of JNCO jeans, Ed Hardy t-shirts and frosted tips hairstyles. Within the context of that time period, Tidus actually looked pretty cool.
>>
>>3910397
>the beginning of the end for cloud
>poor cunt didn't stand a chance, they completely ruined his character rip
One weird trick: I simply never played any FF7-adjacent games beyond the original game.
>>
>>3902768
It's a pride thing. Square realized their games were not that popular with the gay community, so they designed Tidus to appeal to that demographic. They did a remarkable job, as he has become something of a gay icon these days. Stickers of him kicking a blitzball are often found in the restrooms of gay nightclubs.

You nay have noticed that gays compromise the vast majority of people who play final fantasy games these days. Or if you haven't, you probably don't know anyone straight playing them We have Tidus to thank for that.
>>
>>3902768
Not only him, most FFX characters have shitty design
>>
>>3902768
>>
>>
>>3902768
That’s how we used to dress in the early two thousands.
>>
>>3902776
This. Growing up is realizing that people dislike Tidus simply because he is the jock and they were the nerd and no other valid reason
>>
>>3914879
Insecure nerds. Nerds and jocks could have powerful alliances, but they're psyopped into not uniting. Sadly many fall for the divide & conquer.
