Okay since I need some distraction with the FFIX challenge (I can't mentally take seeing 1000 resets a day) I thought about finally getting a go at the HD remaster, I actually started yesterday but got just half hour in so far.
In the end I am just going to end up doing NSGNO (No Sphere Grid No Overdrives) without any walkthroughs and after Seymour Omnis and capturing I'll do NGS monster arena (hello Shinryu, already looking forward to 2500 tries before killing you)
Sorry for the now wasted thread I previously made and for all your thus wasted ideas but heart now says NSGNO clearly >_<
So yeah just got thrown out of Dream Zanarkand, I will give it some more playing later today.
