Final Fantasy X - Auron's Story - A Tribute (Spoilers) 

You missed something in Auron’s story. Specifically, Auron’s relation to Rin. I believe that Rin makes a remark about the wound he received from Yunalesca and how it was hard to imagine anyone could survive it. He also mentions, Rin that is, Auron disappeared the next morning. So from that I believe Auron ran into Rin prior to reaching Kimahri. Rin helped Auron, he left before the next morning and ran into Kimahri just before he died.

Well, you also have to remember that Auron was basically a Ghost, he himself was an Abnormality in the Living world. But he only continued living on because he wants to be a Teacher to the Generation that have NO IDEA the true Story behind SIN. As most Summoners and Guardians basically die before they make it to the Yunalesca’s pad! If you Ask me, Auron knew what he wanted to do by the end of the game. Bring Balance back to the world. And by Deciding to fade away into the Farplane, he’s basically ending the control of the Spirits from holding The citizens of Spira down. The future belongs to them, it doesn’t belong to the Dead who are prisoners to the past!

And that bit of cynism and sarcasm that helps to face the difficulties of life without being crushed by them.

His mouth is hidden so the voice actor had a little more freedom with words/delivery :)

And theme

Exactly, and my favorite character as well

Who doesnt like a badass swordsman?

Favorite overall character in video games possibly for me.

ya no shit what happen they run outa budget

camrnjurena woah, never thought of that.. /:

fingers crossed that i go senile

Me too final fantasy x was one of my favorite game in PlayStation 2 era

it definitely had the best story and characters that i cared about, poured endless hours into this game back in the day

Yeah, agreed.

well we kind of already know their story. the only thing that would be added would be a couple extra bits.

also if they make an x-3 I hope they don't use that god awful audio drama as a template.

I really don't want a prequel. in the age of reboots I love original material more than ever. x3 gotta be a sequel. defeat sin.

lordblazer Hmm guess we have different preferences. I thought the original X ended the way it should have. Bittersweet. I don't think every story needs a super happy ending.

Awake Now X's ending was great if you understood why it has the impact that it does. but I still couldn't help but want to see yuna and tidus back together. I like to think of X2 as an official fangame.

Legendary guardian? I was just a boy.

@John Smith With the help of the children from his 2 best friends!

I am literally here to hear that

+Michael Schlossberg Whoa, awesome :)

+Michael Schlossberg if i have a kid one day i hope my partner will be awesome enough to name the kid after a game character as awesome as Auron :P if not i'll name my dog after him x)

(super late reply but) That is so cool! Are you guys gonna talk to him about his namesake?

Lol that's so awesome.

Loser

Sounds like heaven

FF8 was my first and when 9 dropped I did the exact same thing. It lasted 4 days and when I finally went home I slept for 20 hours lol.

Similar thing with me going to my grandmas house. (One of the first memories I have of gaming is watching my grandma beat ff9 when it was less than a year old). Played this game all weekend from fri- late Sunday. The game imprinted on me from that weekend and I've came back every 2 years ever since.

Also at the end jecht tells Auron "you're late".. i think they did communicate general time frames and plans. Could have been to do with pyreflies and being unsent

spencer the mini game was a nightmare but the storyline is amazing, really.

@@GeorgiaAndrea racing chocobo

@Philip Tucker Only if you don't count moogles nor the Re:Mind DLC (which, admittedly, doesn't have much) - and Seifer does get name-dropped in some of the background chatter in Twilight Town. Still nowhere near as much as it should have had, considering how important the FF characters were to the story in KH1 and KH2 (and CoM and coded as a result of being significant in KH1)

Stealing this and there isn't anything you can do about it. hahah

He isn't that stoic.

thanks for sharing your shitty, unpopular opinion. Hes 1--% stoic

Ynotillgiveyoumyname lol best comment ever

Stoic? I can see that. I always thought he was just heavily focused and no-nonsense about things.He spoke when he felt the need to. He wasn't too much for small talk. Everything he says, always has deep meaning and mystery to it. And, he doesn't try to be, either.

KH-mixerX When you get behind Seymour (especially go on optional quests) you do find out that he has a very good reason to be who he is. His story is nearly as layed as aurons.

@@Goron1988 loneliness and suffering were the only companions of his life, sure he became fanatic, but I understand too why.

Oh god that would be a dream come true.

That lightning dodger was infuriating, and the chocobo training was just inhuman. I nearly ended up summoning a demon from all the dark, incoherent tongues I was speaking in, riding those stupid birds...The fault is in the controls and the inability to change camera angles. >:/

@Philip Tucker Typical millenial response.

I hated those two challenges, especially those damn balloons

does that mean you can't get the ultimate weapons in that？

That was Auron's story and Hades is not part of it!

I would marry that man in a New York minute. Only fantasy could conceive of someone just so bloody imperfectly perfect... "sigh"

I agree. His lips look like he got stung by a bee or he had collagen injections in the HD version, hahaha... ♥

Don't forget that moment, back in Luca. After Seymour had released those fiends in the Blitzball stadium, and Auron was about to fight that dinosaur-esque fiend. The fiend roared at him, and he simply smiled back, like "okay."

and seymour

I agree! (ﾉ≧∀≦)ﾉ

Oh and I just got the remaster on ps4, man this age really aged well. Every moment is just so timeless.

Auron's humor is something I got a kick out of. The dry and sarcastic humor is very similar to myself.

+Jose Zaragosa Auron doesn't pay the ferryman, the ferryman pays Auron. :P

+kmowns My sister is the same way. lol

Can i marry your sister, pretty please? :D

wow thats amazing! nice man

+MORTALBALLGT Actually, how about including a story about Shuyin as well?

Yes, please Berk! Tidus (Shuyin) is my second favourite character behind Auron!

Shuyin was part of the real Zanarkand, that was destroyed by Sin 1000 years earlier. Dream Zanarkand was created and completed just prior to the real Zanarkands destruction, that would exist as long as Yu Yevon continued. So Shuyin would have existed in the dream Zanarkand as well as the real one. Dream Zanarkand was located near the Baaj temple out at sea in a hidden location. Just to be clear here, dream Zanarkand is a real place. It's a common misconception. One of the purposes of Sin to Yu Yevon was to halt civilization from advancing and ever discovering dream Zanarkand's location. The only way Auron got their was because Jecht wished it and took him, because he wanted Auron to look after his son. This allows the people of dream Zanarkand to live normal lives without fear of fiends, like the inhabitants of Spira have to deal with. As Yu Yevon was constantly fixing any damage dream Zanarkand would take. It's most likely that Tidus was born from Shuyins family tree, as a distant descendant of sorts. Shuyin wasn't around when the real Zanarkand was destroyed by Sin. He was under Bevelle activating Vegnagun for the sole purpose of destroying Bevelle's machina army, in an effort to save Len from being killed on the frontlines. Len learned about it and managed to stop Shuyin from going through with it, before they were both shot in front of Vegnagun.

Brantley - but the Real Zanarkand was destroyed by the Machina war between Zanarkand and Bevelle. Which isn't revealed until the storyline of FFX-2 when it is told by Maecha. Even then, Yuna, the gang And majority of Spira only knows that A Zanarkand was destroyed by Sin. Through sphere hunting, everyone finds out that Yevon was hiding secrets. It is only because of the final events of FFX, spheres, and other secrets that many people stop trusting in Yevon. There's a lot of missing pieces in FFX to FFX-2, to few to connect Shuyin and Tidus together. Summoners existed during Shuyin And Lynn's time but there is no mention of SIN. There's a lot of theories consisting of dream zanarkand and the real zanarkand. Dream Zanarkand was created by the survivors of the war who were turned into the fayth and dreamed their memories. The summoners purpose according to FFX was to fight sin and continue the cycle. In FFX-2 we find out that summoners had more than one purpose other than fighting SIN. One thing we do not know is what of the summoners that didn't complete their journey to get the final AEON? in Gagazet we find that some summoners don't even make it the the fayth of Gagazet. Are those summoners used for petty battles and wars? In FFx-2 it is mentioned that Bikanel was also destroyed by a machina war......Huh? Wakka mentions that SIN is a punishment for letting things get out of hand, before he was talking about the Machina war. What? I believe that the Bikanel desert wasn't always an island and was at one point connected to Zanarkand and the fall out of the war put a crevice in the land and eventually the land just drifted away. Thus years later the AL Bhed were banished there and that is where HOME was. If that's case, it would explain the immense amount of water that you find when visiting Zanarkand. There's a lot more.....and that lot more is just matching up the storylines....I'm done DX

MurkamiHaruka​​​​​​​ This is correct, the real Zanarkand was destroyed during the war between Zanarkand and Bevelle. I was only pointing out Yevon's side of things. Sin was Yu Yevons strategy in the war as the news of the war took it's toll on him and he broke. So he tried to save his city by creating another one at sea through the power of all the summoner's who became fayth to remove the reality of what happened in Spira, he then created Sin to serve as armor and it's programming meant that whatever city was nearby, would be destroyed. What was left of the real Zanarkand was its first target. Yu Yevon not only dreamed up the city, but its residents as well. Tidus is most likely connected with Shuyin because of this, as Shuyin was a prominent resident of the city.

Watching Auron's and Jecht' sphere scattered across gives you a good idea of how the pilgrimage went.

Thanks, check the description for the link to pmog's thread on Gamefaqs. The stories that have been translated should be in there, but you'll have to find them.

dansg08 you better than auron

Totally agreed, best game and great information ;D

+ismablanco96 Thanks :) Glad that this video made you pick the game up again, enjoy it :)

im again at mount gagazet nowdays :)

which one?

You're fast! The red carpet has teeth, ofc ;) Just need to figure out where.

butt cheek. always the butt cheek

Too many stretchmarks, gonna be hard to read.

There's Auron asking "Are you sure?" while looking towards Sin and holding Tidus high up. Surely he wasn't asking Tidus, but Sin/Jecht. So some sort of communication was there. He even admits to Tidus later, that he felt Jecht inside Sin in that moment they were sucked into Spira, which is exactly this moment. If he can feel Jecht, why wouldn't he be able to communicate with him? As an Unsent, he has many "advantages" (as he said himself), such communication could be one of those.

He is like, i was waiting for this moment for ten years. It's playback time bitch.

True but also he's only 35. I was actually surprised watching this as I'd forgotten that the dude was mid 30s and not in his 50s..edit: also agree the voice acting was perfect for him
