Getting curious!
Nice. I hope you enjoy it.



Btw, don't go in with too high expectations. I do think the game is brilliant, but it's a subtle sort of brilliance - the sort which can easily go unnoticed if you're not careful. Personally, after my first play through, I liked the game but I didn't think it was brilliant. Final Fantasy IX was like fine wine for me - it got better with age.
Once again thanks for the advice. I played a while yesterday and the beginning is very atmospheric. Really digging the konky character design and the music is lovely. Battles have been a little slow though, but I guess I've got to get used to that.

I sucked at jumprope :"(
Oh me too - I could never do jump rope. I could do sword fighting though!

I'm glad you're enjoying it. And yeah battles are slow even at max battle speed. I just like to sit back, relax and play and then the wait doesn't bother me.

And yeah, do give me updates on how it's going as you get further in.
