Final Fantasy IX Impressions

[Bubba]

I'm getting a tad peeved with the constant stealing. Every boss has a tonne of stuff and I've just got to wait around watching Zidane fail to steal about twenty times before I can start dealing any serious damage.

It took me a ridiculous number of attempts to steal just two things from the water boss thing in Gizamaluke's Grotto. I couldn't be arsed waiting around any longer as I was burning through potions and ethers. Once I'd killed him, I looked up the boss and apparently he had an Ice Staff that I could've swiped as well. No doubt I'll need that at a later point for some insanely difficult challenge. Am I gonna have to take half an hour on every boss to get every item? Because smurf that...

EDIT: Also, what the hell was this all about?
