Does anyone kinda miss games being really hard?

FFVIII is a bad example. That game was too easy to level up in. I think there was this one tiny island where each battles gets your 2-3 level ups. Even if you take the time to go down to Ultima weapon you should have 5+ characters maxed out by the time you get there.

Now FFIX, leveling up to fight Ozma (I think that is the name)... that's a bitch.

Even after training there, I died during Ultimecia's final form! I tried the boss fight like 3 times before, and I decided that I would never complete the game from that day on. It's pretty sad if you ask me! I have to admit, I missed a few GFs... Oh well! :(

 

I literally kicked the snot out of that game. After beating FFVII for probably the 3rd or 4th time I decided to spend a good 10+ hours at the start of the game playing cards, changing them into items, killing the T-Rex, getting the card, changing into item, rinse and repeat and had Lionheart at the start of the game. After that I would breeze right through it. Even made short work of Omega.

lol, I also tried that super-powered magic drawing trick with Seifer at the beginning of the game, but it was worthless because I stopped playing a week after doing that. That Triple Triad game ruined my save file (lost Ifrit and a few rare cards, and I saved over the file damnit)! I felt ashamed. ;_;
