I know FF7 and FF9 in their modern re-masters have some ridiculous options. I heard in the 7 one there's a basically press X to win option, you can just basically make yourself super powered to cheese any particular fight, I'd imagine all the comparable remakes have the same options. I guess it's nice if you...just wanted achievements or something?

I just re-played FFIX about a year or two ago. Tapped out when he said he had to grind for a boss. Not sure which boss this would be in story order but you rarely if ever have to grind in the main story of Final Fantasy games, let alone in the first few hours. To be honest he's probably gonna neglect how AP and abilities work vis a vis gear in the game and end up having to grind a ton of AP later on which even with the speedy mode on will be a grind.

For people unfamiliar with FFIX in particular, the game has a very lengthy tutorial section, wherein it introduces mechanics and walks the player through them, almost one at a time, throughout the first few hours of the story. It doesn't hit its stride for quite a while (which is by no means a bad thing). Phil shouldn't have struggled at any point during his premiere stream. There can be a great deal of grinding involved later in the game, particularly if one doesn't know tricks as to where/when to do it to shorten the time needed for it, but I wouldn't hold my breath. Even if some autist drops ten bucks to cheer instructions at him Phil seems especially pig-headed when it comes to JRPGs, even more so with those that supposedly ought to be in his wheelhouse. If he's not sober enough to consult a guide during his downtime he'll be killing trash mobs for hours for single-digit AP while lean-in manualling every sperg screaming in chat about how much he's doing it wrong.
 
I don't watch more than a minute or two at a time, but he consistently does 1 of a few things: 1) sits in silence looking at the game and then chat/streamlabs, speaking only to respond to money; 2) gets baited into an extended rant about (insert topic); 3) sees chat talking about literally anything but him and gets pissy, demands that people "interact" with him, and then does absolutely nothing to start a conversation.

The only time he's more lively is when money is chucked at him. Then he's more likely to go full clown-nose and act exactly like Pewdiepie circa 2012-2013, complete with over-the-top reactions and "random" noises.

No wonder he's actually a completely miserable person deep down, as was shown during the New Year/christmas marathon when the inhibitions went flying and the real Phil came crawling out. As I have seen being said here before by others: it's like he got exactly what he wanted but it's not at all what he expected it to be like.

Thankfully tho, he never criticized Pewdiepie for such behavior and is thus certainly not a massive hypocrite, so at least he has that going for hi-.......... god dammit Philbert.....

Some people just want to play the story and don't care about battles. To be fair, every game from VI to IX is too easy and for the many that grew up with those games, I get why they'd rather skip battles.

Honestly those people could just watch a Let's Play or condensed "movie" version of the game on YouTube.
 
I don't see how anyone can tolerate the unbearable tedium of Philip playing a JRPG. He text to speeches the dialogue if it isn't voiced with his zero talent mush mouth slurring words. Whenever he encounters the slightest obstacle he just grinds levels so he can face tank with no thought. They are slow games even when played competantly so when he ruins one he just pauses and "interacts" with chat who hold his hand. Even restreams don't help this drizzling shit.

I'm tapping out after he game over'd on the Trance tutorial fight & the 1st boss while complaining it's "unfair" despite the fact you can kill it in one round with a level 1 party.

Wait...the Ochu looking thing with the cage? the one that traps Vivi? the only way you should die on that is if you go into teh fight with 1hp

EDIT: Prison Cage is the enemy i'm thinking of my bad

My god, what is the fucking point of doing this. All these games are so easy if all you care about is finishing the main story. Why would anyone that actually likes these games even buy these? I'd have instant buyer's remorse and go straight back to the ROMs. Trophies/achievements are fucking cancer too. I'll never buy any remakes of anything I remotely care about.

As for FFIX, I remember trying really hard to impress all the nobles near the start. I never could, though I was like 12 years old. Imagine buying a FF9 remake in your late 20s and then beating it easily and thinking, 'Oh cool I finally beat it, with age comes wisdom!' only to find out that they made it way easier. Fuck me, I bet you can get Steiner's Excalibur II just lying on the ground after beating disc 2. (Hint: Excalibur II is only achieved by reaching the end of one of the last areas in the game in less than 12 hours, making it both totally useless and one of the hardest items to get in all of the FF games.)

Anyways Phil, fugg yew for once again showing your passion as a gamer, playing a sped-up, lamer version of one of my favorite FF games ever, just like you did with Donkey Kong Country 1-3 with your save-scumming.

Fuck you give me money, eat this pig slop.
Seriously, DSP's subs, go join a Findom site. At least you might get to see some tits. Or better yet, just burn your money. At least that provides warmth.

It's actually this that pisses me off the most. They could use the money to help families that struggle, give it to organizations that help kids, shit give it for cancer research. Nah fam, let's give it to a 37 year old loser, who has 2 homes and around 100k$ of yearly income. Money well spent.

just wanted to throw this out: the rerelease for steam/ps4 includes 3 cheat buttons;
- 3x speed, included for the sake of grinding or catching back up to a spot if you game over'd
- no encounters, included so you can take a brisk walk to/from a save point if you needed to
- all gauges full, included so you could mop the floor with any fight. it essentially gives you max HP, MP, and LB every turn.
FF7 doesnt need these cheats, the devs just wanted to pander to casuals. from what i remember, FF9 has the exact same cheats included for the same reasons.

if dsp has to resort to the cheats to finish the game, its because hes absolute trash and/or wants to finish the game asap because he hates it

Or, you know, buy their children toys. Or make sure they have a nest egg in case the costs for their medications go up. That's what really kills me; his pignosis is so strong that he can apparently override even the survival instinct in his fans. I've always personally doubted the preponderance of physical and mental disabilities in his active supporters; I don't doubt that some of them have difficulties but for it to be as widespread as it is it smacks more of a meme or a deflection tactic. There's nowt so queer as etc., etc. but I've never known a disabled person to be so gullible as to so regularly sign over some of their income to so blatant a con-man. You'd think it'd be harder for someone who broadcasts so much of his life and his ire to scam so many, but here we are, I suppose.

The most annoying thing about those cheats is they don't disable trophies/achievements or anything like that. While these games are ancient by today's standards and you have all the information you need at your fingertips; it's bullshit knowing the game has a built-in "I WIN" button you can use against enemies like Ruby Weapon or Ozma. The 3x speed thing I don't mind, because Square put a FFx2 option in Chrono Cross, which I thought was nice, though it could only be used on NG+. But that being said, I do see Phil using the Full Gauge cheat.

With that being said, I'm gonna make a prediction. Phil will have at least 2 of his leading characters have a level that is a multiple of 5; at which he will sperg the fuck out against the Deathguise boss.
 
Rather curious on how trancing is an I Win button for Ozma... oh. Let me guess; they got rid of him reacting to you clicking or moving to moves in your menu too didn't they.

Because that was the big reason Ozma was a pain in the balls; he could react and basically give himself turns based on your actions and was damn fast already. Getting rid of that alone makes him stupidly easier since you then only have to worry about Doomsday or Holy and whatever else he does on his turn only.

Also Pig lost to Prison Cage? I could see it if he used Tidal Flame (which I recall is doable if you snag a Mage Masher early), but didn't expect him to kill Vivi.

Unless he's reading a guide / chat tells him, both of which are equally likely.

It's not just a full trance, it's a simple button press that fills up all your meters; HP, MP, Trance/Limit, and you can use it whenever you want and as many times as you want.
