Thread: Trigger Happy?

    Trigger Happy?

    Ever since I first played FF8 I've always pushed R1 right as my character was about to strike even in every other FF game I played. I guess I developed some crazy superstition that if I do that my character will do more damage regardless of which FF I'm playing....anyone else do this too?

    I re-played VII straight after playing VIII and yes...I fell for that too.... I also got *snip by the change in buttons too...led to some early-game confusions till I tweeked the Config to the X=Action O=Cancel I have come to love...all was well till I started chocobo breeding and wanted to put some in a stable...just try it....i was stumped for a full 30 minutes until i realised i would have to reset the config...my idle mind struggles sometimes...tis a cruel world.

    Don't try to go around the swear filter, please. ~Krang

    It must have been added for button pushers like me. I always nervously tap on action buttons even when it isn't my turn to input commands. So the R1 and the GF Boost keeps me plenty occupied.

    I found myself doing this with every character in Final Fantasy VIII, regardless of whether they had a gunblade or not. I hardly find myself doing it in other RPGs, however.

    cuchulainn, I did that too when breeding those stupid chocobos.

    stupid buttons that don't work like they're supposed to-_-

    I really don't think about pulling the trigger unless squall is running towards something. Unless I really do and just dont' remember.

    If it gives you that reflex, play more Mario RPG games. It'll come in quite handy.

    Oh, yes! I can trigger ANY attack in SMRPG perfectly! (I actually got 100 superjumps once...)

    Anyway... yes, I'm pressing the trigger all the time in both FFVIII, FFVII and FFIX.
