FFV

Replaying the FF games since I got the pixel remasters as a gift (I still need to actually finish 3, even though I'm nearly there, and finished 1 and 2.) Kind of weird to see the Crystal Tower and surrounding areas in their natural habitat.

I'm on 5 for now - I wanted to play the job system I was used to there - and reached the Castle of Bal, which is basically where I pause the game for days to grind. I have discovered that if I set things up so that at least one character is below 100 ABP to the next level, I can pretty much grind indefinitely.

(It's seriously nice to see this game with a competent translation, though. I only played the PSX release of this on console - I never got the GBA release.)

Also - I think I said this elsewhere but I remember back in the day in the Ship Graveyard that it gave me a LOT of trouble.

You know, this place where you have to go underwater a lot?

When I first, first played this - a LONG time ago - I don't know why but the rendering made the water opaque. I thought it was supposed to be like that and you just had to pick your way through the underwater areas until you found the exit.

It... took a while.
