fwiw I think each iteration was an improvement on the last.

Idk, from what I've played of XIII-2, it seemed as if what little artistic direction XIII had was completely thrown out the window for a completely chaotic smorgasbord of stuff that just doesn't go well together and seems to have really nothing to do with the stuff established in the previous game
But enough about that! Got Matra Magic and did the Nibelheim flashback. Off to the Mythril Mines.
Ha, Mythril Mines and Fort Condor is where I spend hours getting Level 3 Limit breaks for everyone! I assume you're not gonna bother if you're speeding it?
Are you gonna get Yuffie?
Yeah, I do intend to get Yuffie and Vincent. Characters are something that I pretty much need.
And yeah, after trying to and later giving up on maxing all jobs with everyone in FFV, I've decided I really need to spend my energy wisely if I want to go through with this whole thing in a reasonable amount of time. Especially since I've basically done all the extra stuff in all FF games at least once in the past. Who knows, if I push myself, I might just finish it before Christmas (which is when I might potentially get FFXV but that's still a big if). So yeah, I need to hurry and get this done. Don't even know if I'll bother with the final weapons and limits.
(not to mention FFVII is stupidly easy so far)
Yeah, you can easily skip all the time-consuming stuff like Choco-breeding. I don't think I've ever done a speed run of FFVII. I don't like missing things!
Again, if you want some sort of challenge at least, there's trying to get Beta without grinding *right now*. Requires a decent-ish amount of strategizing at least. But I think a Sadness + Fire-halving Barret should be able to survive it by this point so it's certainly not impossible ^^
But I don't have the means of halving fire right now >.>
ah well, extra challenge is lame press x to win instead
Yeah, FFVII is pretty easy, even if you avoid grinding or getting optional extras that make the game go faster (like Matra Magic, Beta; though that in itself is a challenge).
Having said that, I've never done a low level run, or a no-materia run, or any other sort of handicap, so I can imagine it can be difficult if you make it, but a standard play is pretty easy.
What's your favourite Midgar scene? I love that entire sequence of the game, it's like a game within a game.
I like the whole package as well, but Intgink the Shinra Building takes the cake, as it's the climax of that chapter. First there's the climb, then some cool puzzles, then some actually creepy stuff, and then three boss battles in a row, one of which takes place after a whole bike chase. This is where the game really comes together which is quite fitting because this is where the actual game begins. After what felt like a game of its own.
Wall Market is a really close second, though!
Btw, Sense is like the most useless materia so far and yet I already have two. UGH
