Thread: Why Is This Game So Hard?

    Default Why Is This Game So Hard?

    ok, so I'm using NEStron, and the turbo button is a great help. Thing is, without the turbo button, it must be so so so hard, why?

    Turbo button? This is Final Fantasy, not Double Dragon. How does a turbo button help?

    Turbo button on the emulator, it makes everything go at about x10 speed, meaning that battles seem to be about 1 second long

    Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. I gets yet now.

    Yeah the turbo button does help, but it tends to cut down the actual playing time of a game severely. Of course this allows you to get through games much more quickly than you would playing them traditionally. For me it can be a double-edged sword, since the faster I play them on emu, when I come to play them on a console they seem extremely sluggish by comparison.

    What part are you on? We can help more if you told us that.

    And yeah, 'turbo-attacking' can't help you in every battle.

    I thought FF3j's battles were fast enough even without the turbo button, so I didn't use it. I did use it in FF2 NES's battles since they were very slow, especially if you use a spell to target all 4 characters or 8 enemies (hits them one by one, then shows a damage box and disintegrates the target if it was killed). I don't see how the turbo button would make FF3j any easier, though, since the battles are turn-based, not ATB. It only makes them go faster.

    Faster battles means faster leveling. Why bother turning everyone into Dragon Knights in order to beat Garuda when you can just zap yourself to Level 30 and pulverize him with brute force?

    yeh, just faster leveling, I find that if you don't use it then you need to level your characters for ages

    even with turbo-speed the game is difficult. I don't like how they make you change to a certain class and sometimes make you get a certain sword just to go through a verrrry long dungeon with no save points. thank you to gamefaqs.com.

    That's lame...just play the game....the remakes have turbo run - It's almost cheating. It's not THAT hard - you just need to spend time on it.

    I didn't find FF III hard at all. You just need to spend time leveling up

    Vaan - "Hey, you!"
    Penelo - "Yeah, you! The one reading this sig at this very moment!"
    Vaan - "Interested in playing FFXII International Zodiac Job system?"
    Ashe - "But you have no knowledge of the Japanese language?"
    Fran - "....We could help...."
    Balthier - "That's right, Fran! Just click on Crossblades' thread on the very bottom of this signature and it will show you all license grid translations, magicks and tecks locations, and other changes that were made!"
    Basch - "Don't forget though. Swap Magic is needed to play this game if you don't own a japanese PS2."
    Vaan - "Also remember that if you played the original, you'll have an easier time playing the international version. We hope you enjoy the International Zodiac Job System experience. See ya then!"

    I actually did take on Garuda with Dragoon Knights. While I do use turbo to speed things up, I rarely use it to power level unless it's somewhat necessary (Dragon Quest I is just painful unless it's sped up...severely).

    Hah, try DQII. I still cringe thinking of the hours I spend finding that damn Thunder Sword.

    Anyway, I think FFIII really isn't too difficult if you know what to do, and what jobs to use. With that, and proper equipment, you shouldn't have too much of a problem.

    I will say that it will be one of the hardest FFs to someone if you don't know what to do. (Giant Rat, Splitting Cave, Garuda, etc.)

    I don't even know what a turbo button is, but I never thought this game was slow/hard- slowhard.
