It was just a horrible system, in my opinion. The spheres were all over the place, and most of the really good abilities I wanted for my characters were on the opposite ends of the grid from where their paths were, and closed in by LV4 keyspheres which were a b*tch to find. And you had to fight a lot mor monsters to gain the spheres you needed, even when you had enough AP to move across the grid. I hated it.
X-2 just leveled up like VII, VIII, and IX, and I liked that. Ability learning was much easier as well, with just wearing a certain dressphere for enough battles to earn AP.
