54 hours to skip a 10 second tutorial with additional downsides. Task failed successfully.
-
This reminds me of the guy who grinded to level 99 in the first reactor in FF7. It took over 500 hours iirc.
-
Wow, I was legit researching this same thing. You'll have to make a video on how many Sinspawns need to be defeated, during the Sin Finn encounter on the boat, just so Kimahri can one-shot the plant in Kilika with Lancet.
-
Can confirm, I cheated for the stats. The description of the video says cheats were used, but I figured I could give a bit more context here: I spent maybe 30 minutes going through boards because I was bored, then I got bored of that, so you can see Wakka's stats aren't maxed out. When I discovered what happens if you kill the flan, I laughed so hard at it, and I just had to share. 😆 What a crazy, in-depth video! Loved it! 100% subbing 😇

6:43 after tidu cuts in in half "i told you only magic can kill that thing" lmmfao

Tbf Keepa is pretty interesting in how he skyrockets in stats towards the end.
-
cough cough the damage variance is more around +- 6%, you mistakenly got the 16% by looking at the variance being 256 +- 16 / 256 behind the scenes lol Bonus: It's not actually +- 16, it's [240, 272), which doesn't actually include the 272, making the variance extremes -6.25% and +5.86%

Me as a kid: I hate stupid subjects like math, I'll just make video games when I grow up. Me now: Well, shit...

Expert Sphere Grid stays winning

Still one of my favorite Games of All Time.🎉

FFX players are crazy

Whoa HayanNinja is an OG on the GFaqs board! Nice

I just clicked for a "HA HA HA" joke, but instead I got educated on how a seemingly impossible task turned into a speedrun. Amazing content as always, Doc 😅👍🏼
-
I used a gameshark to max my stats and give everyone their ultimate weapon (just for kicks and giggles) but I remember it causing issues in the tutorial. Probably because i had party members I shouldn't have had at that point.
-
This is awesome! I’m really glad other people were wondering about these forced tutorial sections too! I wanted to know what would happen here too but had no desire to actually do this legit. I messed around with a save editor to win or lose tutorials I wasn’t supposed to and uploaded the results to my channel. Sometimes some unexpected things would happen like camera angles being broken or battles just ending prematurely.
-
Great video. As I was watching it, I was thinking the whole time, "I wonder if he'll mention my video" 😂
-
I did a pretty similar thing to one shot the armored enemy tutorial fight outside Luca. Wound up killing more sinspawn on the ship than I care to remember.
-
Very well put together and fun vid, man. Thank you!!

I see FFX, I click
