Well I'm no expert but for platinum you have to complete the grid sphere and beat some real badasses which are far more powerful than that Dark Aeon. So if you go for plat you'll beat that Dark Aeon sooner or later, don't you? It's not like you can completely fuck up the platinum in Besaid. I'm pretty sure I took the Al Bhed book and got the Destruction Sphere chest in Besaid, but probably didn't get the Jekkt Sphere, which is really odd since they haven't been introduced at all back in Besaid.... I don't know how much of a pain the plat will be, but I'm enjoying the game so far. It's definitely worth it, and then there is FFX-2 which I haven't played at all. Overall I'm pretty happy with the purchase. |
Yeah, that's the *easiest* Dark Aeon. The Jecht sphere doesn't show up until you defeat Spherimorph, so unless you walk all the way back before Valefor shows up, you have to go through him.
So for perspective, I missed the destruction sphere chest because I pushed the pedestal first and it wouldn't let me go back, so I figured I'd wait until later. So with Dark Valefor blocking my path, I couldn't go back and get it, which means I couldn't get Anima, which means I couldn't get the Moon Sigil, which means I could't power up Yuna's celestial weapon. Sure, by no means preventing me from getting the platinum, but holding me back from getting a lot of stuff. Thank googly moogly for Zanmato.
