At least on the android version of epsxe, click the back button to open the menu, then click Toggle Frameskip or whatever it's called. I assume it's also called "frameskip" rather than turbo or fast forward on the PC version.

And yeah, it helps.

On the PC version you can enable/disable the framerate limit but it doesn't actually do anything.

Because I'm mentally ill I'm going to play all the Final Fantasy games from 8 up to 13 (not counting 11) but the lack of fast-forward in the Playstation 1 games is troubling.

8, 9 and 10 are all good but the rest get a gamer thumbs down.

It helps to realize there aren't that many random encounters in FF9, there's really only a few per area. The game is slow at first but later on you'll just wreck everything, especially bosses.

there's an ff8 romhack but it's not actually fun

it still uses weird scaling but it's ~kaizo~ so all enemies use their max level movesets and bosses are at set levels so president deling ate zell in one attack before even transforming

FF8's only redeeming factor was that it led to that Leovinus LP, which is tragically lost to the sands of time now.

Him naming Angelo Vaginal was the only thing that sticks out in my mind for it because I have an advanced mature sense of humor and "Vaginal Cannon" was hilarious to me

it is a truly ugly game and would benefit the most out of any ff with a remaster. i don't even like ff7 that much but i think it could seriously benefit from a remaster because it's considered such a landmark game in terms of making something big and ridiculous with psx hardware that blew folk's minds.

personally the snes ff2/ff3 games were my favorite but i don't want a remake because i feel like snes sprites have an enduring quality to them that allows them to stand up to scrutiny even to this day as not necessarily cutting edge graphics, but graphics that do a good job of conveying what is happening. ff7's blocky characters do not do that. when cloud is being anally penetrated in a hot tub, i want that to be communicated clearly.
