I just had a major headdesk moment and am filled with rage, so I was wondering if anyone else has stories about smurfing up they can share to make me feel less like smashing my PS2. :mad2:
I'll start. I had never played FFVII before, but this time after replaying FF3/6 I decided to do it. Somehow, I managed to get to the Northern Crater without knowing about the arrange/exchange/remove all/trash materia options. I was wondering what to do with all the smurfing useless duplicated I had of old materia, and kinda frustrated that this whole organizing materia and keeping track of it thing was so badly designed. Then I started wondering why when I mastered a materia it would no longer say "x is born" at the top. I got to my last materia to pick up, the W-Magic, and the game told me I couldn't pick it up because I needed to throw out some materia. I felt silly that I wasted all that time moving my materia around (no wonder I was at 99:99:59 so soon). Then I went back to Cosmo Canyon to make the 3 Master Magic Materia I had prepared so meticulously. And nothing happened. I mean, no materia blend occurred. Turns out all my mastered Fire, Ice, Restore, and Lighting materia had been deleted when new materia was created. FML.
So now I may even get two Master Summons cause I'll be smurfed if I am going to let all that leveling (ok, I guess you use grinding here) go to waste.
Anyone else have a memory that still bugs you of a mistake in playthrough?
