I have finished Final Fantasy VII on Switch.

It was my third time playing through Final Fantasy VII (Played it on PS1 back in the early 2000s and the Steam version back in 2016).



Compared to the PC version, it didnt take me as long due to the fact that I didnt try to get a Golden Chocobo like I did with the PC version but I did all the other side quests and gotten Omnislash for Cloud which required me to get a decent chocobo for racing.

Thanks to the QoL boosts such as 3x speed and no encounters, I got my clocked time for this run down to 30 hours - technically 29 but I'm counting 30 because I did the final boss again.
