You know, I think I've figured out what makes the novella/audio
drama so off-putting to me, apart from the obvious material.
You see, no matter how serious the situation was, everything in
FFX(-2) was romanticised: You had these beautifully-coloured,
varying environments and characters; music was constantly
playing in the background and you had these cinematic, sometimes
exaggerated camera angles. It takes the word 'fantasy' quite
seriously. Because of all these factors, even devastating scenes
like Kilika and Home's destruction or the failure of Operation
Mi'ihen seemed almost poetic or mournful, rather than instilling
terror into the player. There was also the pacing of the
dialogue, and even in the Japanese version most of the dialogue
was written in a poetic format.
But with the audio drama and the novel in particular, everything
seems a lot more raw. They seem to get straight to the point
with everything with no priority over subtlety when it comes to
topics like death. Because we have no visual or audible stimuli,
nothing's there to really 'distract' us. We have everything
straight-up told to us through dialogue and narration, so
graphic descriptions like Chuami's mother's death and Tidus'
decapitation become a lot more shocking. If, say, we were told
about Home's destruction in written format only, the revelation
would be a lot more surprising.
Whether or not this is a good thing is entirely up to opinion,
and in my opinion it doesn't really click with me. The FFX saga
is an inspiration to me because of its world and its 'show,
don't tell' mentality for most things. I think that this is
simply just a case of using simpler mediums, since obviously SE
didn't want to make a half-hour long cutscene exclusively for a
remaster. :P

You're welcome ChercheurObscur. I can't wait to read the next
chapters. I must say it's been a journey reading this novel even
if it wasn't what I expected it would be.

All done fixing the, not that there's much to fix! Look forward
to the conclusion soon!
Though, I can't say I like it too much >.>
Makes me really look at that scene in a different light...
But I'll refrain from saying more until it's posted! :P

"He had faith in Yuna's smile."
...And then she ditched him to go face Sin with some strangers.
THE END. :P
But thanks for all your work, everyone!
