    When I first played, it had been a long time since I had played an RPG (my first was FFII, now called FFIV, back when I was about 8. It was my cousin's game. I came from a poor home, so I couldn't play it when it first came out), so I just roamed around and hunted down treasures and fought monsters to discover what cool things my characters could do.

    Later on, when I wanted to see how fast I was, I had been dismissing the sidequests and just zipping through the main plot in games like FFX. When I realized that I had forgotten how to play FFVII, I determined to test myself there. It took about half a day. If you fight through every random battle you're put in and heal before entering any new area, you can pretty much handle every boss monster you encounter just by smartly equipping.
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    If Demolition Man were remade today

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.

    Long enough to know it exists after playing it.

    Funny that some people claim it does not exist.

    I have a save at the entrance to Meteor Crater, and that's the farthest I've got. So I guess it's taken me 15 years and counting...

    That was as far as I had gotten for a long time.

    But it is kinda like reading a book and then saying "nah" when you get to the last chapter.

    When the game came out on PS4 in 2015 with all the extra features like fast forward and instant health restore, I finally did a playthrough from start to finish.

    I've finished FF7 several times, but I genuinely hate most final dungeons so I totally understand ditching it there.
