I Consider Myself A Final Fantasy Fan Boy.
Yet, I've Only Played FFVII ( About A Million Times), FFVIII, FFIX, And FF Tactics.
I've Played The Others But Never In Depth Like The Ones Previously Mentioned.
Its A Great Series, It Really Is. I Can Never Get Enough.
But FFVIII, Whats Up With It? Its Something I Can't Overcome. I Can Never Beat It. Well, I'm Capable Of Beating It, But Always Put Down The Controller. Always In The Same Place Too, After The Lunar Cry Happens And You Have To Go Inside Lunatic Pandora.
I Always Choose To Get All The Items, GF's, Weapons, Cards, Secrets. Because This Point In The Game Its Like Theres No Going Back. If You Proceed And Go Into Lunatic Pandora, Then Before You Know It Time Compresses And You Can't Go Into Any Towns Or Do Anything Besides Playing Cards In The Ragnarok Or Beating The Game. So If You Missed Any Item, Weapon, Card, Then You're Screwed.
So, I Always Decide To Get Everything, And I Own The Official Strategy Guide, So I Know Exactly Where Everything Is, And How To Acquire All Secrets.
But Its Soooooo Tedious.
You Have To Build Your Weapons, And The Items Required To Build These Weapons Are Dropped By Monsters. And Wouldn't You Know? The Items Needed For Ultimate Weapons Are Rare, So You Have To Run Around And Get In Fights. But You Don't Always End Up In Combat With The Monster That Drops the Item You Want. So You Gotta Run Around And Get Into Another Random Encounter. If You End Up Fighting The Enemy You Want the Chances Of Receiving That Item Are Still Slim, Because He Doesn't Always Drop It, And Stealing Isn't Always Successful.
Sometimes You Need An Item So Rare You Can't Get It Anywheres Else. So You Have To Refine It.
Q: Refine It From What?
A: You Must Refine It From Another Rare Item In Your Inventory.
So If You Don't Refine It, You Won't Get The Item You Need.
And If You Do Refine It, You Lose A Rare Item You Had.
Either Way I'm Screwed. Both Choices Presents Me With A Loss.
Getting Doom Train Is A Task Unto Itself, Because You Need These Malboro Tentacles, And Malboros Are Few And Far Between. Then When You Encounter One, They Use Their Bad Breath Attack Which Casts Every Status Effect Possible On You.
Then Theres The Deep Sea Research Center Quest.
Chocobo Forests Quest.
The Queen Of Cards Quest.
All The Other Side Quests.
Getting All The GF's.
Getting All The Cards.
Getting All The Magazines.
Its Too Much.
