Beat the game after 123 hours, doing every side quest I could find. Tons of fun. The last fight was rough, because I didn't give good materia to Aerith because I didn't expect to use her. lol. Still need to beat Gilgamesh, do some Battle Square stuff, and do those bullshit chocobo flying challenges in Cosmo Canyon before I'll be fully satisfied. Not sure about hard mode yet.

RatHat posted:Roche gives it you after fighting him in Junon oh ok, that was my initial thought but the way you said it implied to me that it was missable to the point you might not have it when doing a challenge that you can't even do until after beating the game so I figured I was just mistaken

I got the impression it was a reward for keeping the Midgar 7th well healed and not letting any of them die, since it came after Roche said something about Cloud being a great leader but that's just an assumption. It's possible you just automatically get it no matter what. Anyway even if that's true everyone should have it anyway because what monster would let any member of the Midgar 7th die

I never even once noticed red handcuffs in spite of reading the assess info. gently caress. I also looked up the purple chest I missed on the boat and it is literally right along a main route through the area. I just literally couldn’t distinguish it from the background. I am so mad about this poo poo.

The assess screen doesn't even mention that gimmick. This is kinda weird, since Alexander and Bahamut also have gimmicks involving unique statuses but those are outlined in the intel and have their own icons as well. So, big goof on this account IMO.

lmao how the gently caress do you do Flowers from the Hill on hard mode? I've already died to this more times than I did to Greg edit: never mind, beat them. had to use ATB boost so Aerith could cast Arcane Ward and then immediately nuke the group with Double-Magnified Firaga, then had my other party members run to the ward and cast Fira before they could die, then mopped up the stragglers with Cloud and Firebolt blade Augus fucked around with this message at 05:14 on Mar 28, 2024 |

Yeah I initially had a bad time with that because I wasn't expecting to be forced to use everybody, so I hadn't put materia back onto Cait. I never removed Aerith's though since the game didn't auto remove them and that seemed significant after it did that when Cait left. It helped a lot that Barret and Red already had Dispel equipped, the Jenova legs of the fight are much worse without it.

I just did this last night and I only ever equip my main party of 3 so everyone else literally had zero materia. Decided to just try and go through it like that because it was faster than having to go through every single fight again. Luckily Tifa had lightning/aero otherwise I would not be able to get past that section. Not a big fan of back to back fights like that when otherwise the game had been pretty good at letting you switch materia between sequences. No way am I redoing it just to equip Aerith, I will solo Sephiroth. I can finally read these threads and I guess people are saying the ending to this game is bad?? and I kind of feel that way right now too.

I would have liked them to get even sillier with it considering the whole point of the end of the first game was everything could be different now, but we got what we got.

kliras posted:it's designed in a way where you're supposed to spot it while going to the bench/vending machine when you go back inside iirc. the rebirth demo kind of demonstrated similar issues with materia lying around where some materia just didn't have a high enough contrast to the surroundings that you'd easily miss them Yeah, that volume increase happened after the last patch. I turned down the volume on my controller but it defaults back to max volume the next time you turn the PS5 on

There is a known issue: the sound mixing in this game is frequently garbage and the BGM likes to drown out the dialogue sometimes, although not all the time. Turning the BGM volume down to like 7 or 6 might help. Or maybe it won't. Who knows? I've heard it said it can be different depending on your speaker setup but as a home theatre user this worked okay for me.

It’s most likely the console/game doing a lovely job of mixing surround sound down to stereo, or if you actually are using a surround sound setup your centre channel needs to be turned up.
