Also: I hate hate hate moving platforms with tight timed jumps. I just can't fathom how I managed to finish that game all those years ago.

Probably screamed at the screen until it worked.

Dragon boss? Piece of cake!

My screenshots don't do the game justice. It is just so beautiful for PS1 game, especially since it's all in-engine.

Final session of the week-end, I'm too tired to keep going.

This boss looks as tired as I am!

Sephiroth if he took steroids and wore a subligar.

This one went down easy peasy.

Finished with both. Appreciate that the light novel, while having an overarching story, still presents self-contained mysteries in each volume.

Makes the wait for the next issue easier, and spares me the urge to go binge the far more advanced english translation 😅

Hurt myself (nothing serious) while demoing with 2 partners that are way bigger than me (think Mulder vs Scully size discrepancy, and add a little more 🤣).

Our senior wanted to demonstrate that even a small person can do aikido against bigger opponents, and it sort of worked. But ooch my wrist!

I think I'm getting the hang of it as the last 3 bosses went down pretty quickly.

Also reached the point where directions are no longer given, player has free reign over the map (minus locked rooms to find keys for), up to them what they want to explore next 🧭
