Doesn't FFX have difficulty settings or something? If it does, when you do like a hard game, don't you have to go back to the beginning after only getting hit once or something?

I think I'm getting confused.

But what I did, is I just stayed a few seconds under the cover of the rod towers, then quickly ran through it. Took me only one try. I just...well...just got hit by them and kept going while going for cover and going different directions.
