Didn&#8217;t really do much of the side quests as I later found out. Didn&#8217;t even get any of my characters ultimate weapons nor level 4 limit breaks. Just a bunch of Ultima and Comet 2 and Bahamut Zero and Neo Bahamut. I was actually expecting Sephiroth to be a lot harder since my characters weren&#8217;t exactly optimal and I was frantic they didn&#8217;t give me a save point anywhere near the end of the game which meant if I lost I&#8217;d have to defeat Jenova and both Sephiroths again.<\/p>\n<p>The game was entertaining and I finally saw how the movie <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/exec\/obidos\/redirect?link_code=ur2&#038;tag=krunk4everblog-20&#038;camp=1789&#038;creative=9325&#038;path=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fgp%2Fproduct%2FB000AMJG4Y%2F\">Advent Children<\/a><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" style=\"border: medium none  ! important; margin: 0px ! important\" src=\"http:\/\/www.assoc-amazon.com\/e\/ir?t=krunk4everblog-20&#038;l=ur2&#038;o=1\" \/> and the game connected. One of my 1st questions regarding Advent Children was what the heck were those colorful crystal balls? If I had played FF7 at all, I would&#8217;ve known they were material.<\/p>\n<p>It turns out the move that Cloud uses to defeat Kadaj was the Omnislash, a limit break which I did not get because it costed too many BP (battle points), but I did get to see it in action when I defeated Sephiroth with it.<\/p>\n<p>Also, the intro scene with Red XIII and 2 cubs running is the epilogue after the ending credits in the game. I&#8217;ve compared the 2 scenes and they&#8217;re almost identical, but I think the cubs were cuter in the original game.
