the ending fooled me first time around. Really I was expecting credits showing the classic moments between Zidane and Garnet, then she would get off from her seat after the play and clap with smiles and such and such.

In my mind I had an ending completely different. I guess it kinda adds to the drama. Well done ending, FF9. Congrats on beating the game. I didn't manage to collect a lot of stuff either (and I spend about 110 hours on my first time), but the other 6 times I played it it got better and better. Congrats again.
