You are desperately grinding to master your Knights of the Round materia. You can no longer listen to THAT battle theme without being diagnosed clinically insane.
What tunes do you whack on to break the monotony?
Maybe you are partial to a bit of Dolly Parton whilst mowing down Head Hunters
Maybe the Northern Crater called for a blast of The Carpenters?
I generally opt for the Red Hot Chilli Peppers...
Gonna show my age here, but whenever I did something like that I usually threw on Nine Inch Nails or Marilyn Manson.
I listened to the game music.

I have a long list of music on my playlist from playlist.com, and I would listen to that. There are about 140 songs on there, I believe, ranging from Michael Jackson, to Buddy Holly, to ACDC, to Quiet Riot, and much more. Lately, however, I've been getting back into 90s alternative rock like Smashing Pumpkins, Soundgarden, and Alice in Chains.
I used to do that too, the only problem was I sometimes for got to pause when I switched to the TV, and when I got back to the game it was game over. Stupidly I think (this was actually FFVIII) I actually screamed when I saw the Game Over screen once, because I simply didn't expect to see it.:roll2Quote:

I'm levelling up at the minute to the awesome album that is 'Californication'.
When you play Final Fantasy VII, you listen to Final Fantasy VII. Those are the rules.
Yeah, I listen to the game music. I don't typically grind for that long anyway, so there is no chance the battle music gets annoying. It's a masterful soundtrack anyway so on that one occasion I listened to my iTunes I was just playing other tracks from VII.
dude how did you get the little limit bar on the right side? thats pretty sweetQuote:

As far as the music goes, ya gotta keep this trout in perspective. The FF's are Japanese games. Japanese gamers are masochistic. The whole point is to make yourself as miserable as possible for as long as possible until you just can't take it anymore and find a cutscene for a brief moment of relaxation.
If you listen to anything but FFVII battle music you're a sacrilegious traitor and don't deserve to play SE games.
nothing like some dragonforce to set the scene but after you play through the fire and flames the battles seem to get even more boring
Good call, DJ!Quote:
