No Sphere Grid No Summon No Customize No Overdrives No Escape No [No Encounters] No Blitzball

Can't level up, can't use summons, can't customize equipment, can't use limit breaks, can't escape from battles, can't turn off encounters, can't play blitzball

I have always wondered about which game I would speedrun.
I think the answer has been chosen for me...

ff7 and ff10 have several 30+ character acronyms attached to them these days but it might be interesting for anyone who isnt a lost soul to just look into the history of nsg monster arena and dark aeons

Some of these look intriguing but I would not want to look them up in case I get spoiled on the game. So far the big thing I knew about it (the awkward laugh) has happened and I have full context of it. The rest is a lovely story slowly unfolding :)

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


Can anyone confirm that game actually existed, or is this all an elaborate ARG?

I remember looking at the various acronym soup challenge FAQs out of curiosity and discovering a lot of them get to the final boss then end with "We don't actually know how to beat the final boss in this challenge. Maybe you can be the first!"

I remember reading the no aphere grid FFX guide expecting loads of really clever ability and status manipulations to make it through and then the Seymour Flux guide was like 'keep trying until you get good RNG and he doesn't wipe your party' and I realised these people are just masochists

i like that all the recommended FF6/7/8/9 guides have stuff in there for "perfect playthrough" players who like getting 99x of each item, including ones which are like, a low percentage steal chance from a single enemy in a single area in the game so it's like "btw if you're doing a perfect playthrough simply steal 99 of these items"
