  • someone tell the fat lady she on in 5 lol

  • Haha don't you just love glitches.

  • I have never been able to climb those stalactites. I always get stuck once I reach said "rendevous point"

  • yuffie collects elixir bottles?

  • thats funny bite her ass thats the way to hit on wemon

  • There is a really easy trick to memorize the stalag/stalac situation that I was taught in Earth Science... Stalagmite has a "G" in it hence "Ground"....Stalactite has a "C" in it hence "Ceiling"...CHEERS...

  • i finally got magic counter!

  • You know, i've always thought that people didnt play any of the Final Fantasy's for the actual game play. I always thought that the main reason these games were so successful was because of the enticing story and the brilliant soundtrack. And i do have to say, this type of battle system is good too, better than the new ones.

  • When I watched this, I start thinking which one is beter:

    Shadow Flare or Pandora`s Box. (SF and PB)

    With calculator and Final Fantasy wiki information I did little calculations and here are the results:

    Their damage are equal if the target blocks 52% of magic attacks, so as long as the target`s magic defense is weaker than, use SF. (It takes 10MP less than PB anyway.) BUT if the defense is greater, like 60%, then you should use PB for a greater damage.

    In final battle just use Despell and SF

  • Stalactites - C for ceiling

    Stalagmites - G for ground

  • The game wasn't hard enough to utilize all the spells. It was over before 'it' got cool.

  • "Someone tell the fat lady she's on in five." Holy crap, that was actually pretty badass. You are AWESOME, HCBailly! Now I really want to use that line somewhere xD

  • For some reason I remember this mnemonic device from Breakman's World: "Stalactites hold 'tight' to the ceiling and stalagmites just 'might' get up there someday." Pretty useless information unless you're a geologist or an RPG gamer who goes through a lot of cave levels and wants to remember what they're called. lol

  • i did everything you did but i left the cave and leveled up some then came back and went threw the second path backwards again just like you did but i didnt get the mystile, i dnt remember anyone giving me a mythril even though i have the mythril armlet. i dnt think its a typo cuz it has crappy stats

  • There's a monster in Final Fantasy 9 called Hecteyes that uses Roulette. I hate it >_> He always seems to hit my favorite character (Vivi). I hate moves that depend on chance like that.

    Anyway, I'm not even playing and I'm getting that stomach lurching, emotional feeling I always get at the end of an RPG XD *goes to watch final battle*

    Tell the Fat lady she's on in 5. hahaha.

  • Damn Yu manipulated her alright!. =D

  • Yo O'Donnel, you're on in 5!

  • 5:47 that was the funniest death I've ever seen a character do

  • btw stalagtites are those which hang from the top. Think Tite = top.

  • Cloud give it it back before you end up like JENOVA-DEATH

  • Lol.

    "Tell the fat lady she's on in 5!"

    That's like, the funniest thing I've heard in forever! I love these your vids HC!

  • HC, you forgot to tell us that Dragon Zombie can be found RIGHT away when you hit the spiral screen. Also, remove Cids (CONTAIN) Materia or he stones the dam dragon and I do not know if you can get the Pandora's Box Enemy Skill... I had to reset the game twice and walk all the way back.

  • Stalactites hold tightly to the ceiling. Stalagmites stand mighty.

  • I told the fat lady and she never heard of FF VII... What the heck, HC, what the heck.

  • I told the fat lady and she never heard of FF VII... What the heck, HC, what the heck.

  • I'm not sure how i did it...maybe i sent everyone down the left path and my party went down the right path because i wanted to learn the enemy skills...im not sure...but when i got to the point where u collect the treasure from the others...vincent gave me a mega all and yuffie game me an elemental

  • lol your using my party set up

  • "Someone tell the Fat Lady she's on in five."

    AWESOME. PRE-MORTEM.  ONE-LINER.

  • stala(ceiling)tite

    c=ceiling

    stala(ground)mite

    g=ground

  • what if they touch??????

  • not sure actually :P

  • @ObeseLuchadore Then we all die. Let's hope it never happens.

    ...I think it's really a column, technically.

  • XD the way to hit on women, use a car!

  • i got my pandoras box e skill just before fighting jonova

  • I guess it makes sense that the Pandora's Box enemy skill can only be cast once by enemies in the game because of the pandora's box mythology; the mythological box did all its damage from being opened the first time.

  • Stalagtight holds on tight to the ceiling...... Stalagmites might make it to the ceiling.... come on HC you know you are a spelunker

  • I TOTALLY AGREE FF6 was a good setup for the final battle also you have no idea who will take on the final boss...

  • lol stalagtights stay TIGHT to the cieling, stalagmights MIGHT grow taller

    (just sayin =) )

  • send only tifa to the right and you can copy alot more.

  • "Someone tell the Fat Lady that's she's on in five!"

    Lol love it

  • If there's one thing Final Fantasy VIII actually DID do right, it was the final dungeon. FF7's is kind of a joke, compared to Kefka's Tower, Ultimecia's Castle, and Memoria...

  • Yeah, I love dungeons that cripple your abilities, like Ultimecia's Castle.

  • Was that sarcasm, or honesty? It's hard to tell over the Internet.

  • Honesty. They force you to be creative and strategic instead of simply using brute force to kill everything.

  • Oh, okay.

    Yeah. Even some people who hated FF8 have expressed a similar opinion of the final dungeon. I dunno, maybe the final dungeon was so awesome that it leached all the awesome from the rest of the game. =P

    (I'm actually a fan of FF8, but it's certainly not the best in the series.)

  • @HCBailly by that, you must have liked the battle with Adel in FF8. I know I was spamming GF's up until that point. I still haven't beaten her.

  • @SolarisParadox

    In case you haven't noticed, he loves challenges.

  • There's a couple places and bosses that do that in FFXII.

  • By that, I meant block abilities from the party. And I thought I made that comment on another video... what's the deal Youtube?

    Russian Roulette enemy skill, nice.

    Nice simple equip/materia setup at the end.

  • Ugh, now I see I did comment in the right place. It just doesn't show right on the video page.

  • crystal tower. *shudder

  • i dont know if u know already but the mega all gives the user slash all for a start

  • Perhaps I should rephrase my question HC ... Are you able to collect all Enemy Skills AND Treasures and still able to exit the Cave?

  • Yes. You can backtrack and exit whenever you want.

    You only get one Save Crystal, though, so you need to be careful where you use it.

  • Hey HC? Does the save crystal you get from the box allow you to exit the north cave as well? Or can you please tell me where the point of no return is so I can come back out and master my materias.

    Greatly appreciated .. thanks

  • lol! some tell the fat lady she's on in 5! LOL!

  • "Someone tell the fat lady she's on in 5"

    Man, I'm gonna remember that one.

  • Its taking me ages to get Dragon Zombie to use Pandoras Box...

  • Has it EVER used Pandora's Box, possibly before you tried learning it? The game will only allow it to be cast once in the entire game by a Dragon Zombie. If you missed it at that time, you can never get it.

  • I have re-loaded, and I have it now. Thanks. Thought I'd missed it then for a minute. :)

  • @HCBailly

    Really? I could have sworn that it used it multiple time on me when I went through it.

  • @TheBalambGarden I have had Pandora's Box on most of my playthroughs, except the ones where I'm trying to get everything. They just will not use it when I want them to.

  • Best.Ending.Evar.

  • Yeah, I like the games that have you use all of your party member for certain areas. That's one of the things I like about Sonic Chronicles (Don't judge me) and Pokemon.

  • red xii made a usless imitation?? wtf does that mean? i never saw that in my game o.o

  • I think he used Mime before anyone did anything.

  • "Someone tell the fat lady she's on in 5"

    priceless XD

    Also, just wanna let you know HCBailly that all the weeks working with you here have been real fun. Your walkthroughs of this game are incredibly helpful and funny to watch. Thanks alot.

  • hey where can i use my save crystal so that i can use phs inside northern crater?

  • you can use it anywhere you want

  • The ending was so stupid and hilarious! XD

    "Someone tell the fat lady she's on in 5!"

  • That's what I was going for.

  • Actually, hit or miss you'll get the Enemy Skill if you're a target. (doesn't work entirely like FFV's)

  • I finally got my computer to stop crashing with sound/video!! I'm gonna celibrate by finishing up this excellent Let's Play!! Yahoo!!!!

  • It's a helix.

  • It's like ants in your pants. When the 'mites go up, the 'tites go down.

  • Stalactites stick out from the roof.

    Stalagmites stick out of the ground.

    =)

  • Comment removed

  • Yep, well, the final battle is long enough XD.

  • "Someone tell the fat lady she's on in five..."

    Epic quote full of win.

  • final fantasy 7 the best game eva made...

    trust me!!! this game is sooo perfect!!!

  • It does have sme down-sides though. It would be awesome if it was fixed of the bugs and put on the PS2 or PS3. :3

  • That's so true.

    But personally i'd rather see FF VI made like that, upgraded music and all.

    That would be epic.

  • Yeah, that too :3

  • forget what all u guys said is stupid....

    upgrade them all duhh lol

  • Lol

    Agreed

  • yer... and bring em out for both 360 and ps3 :P or psp...

  • ... Wii sounds good... Only cause I only have a Wii working atm...

  • lol, i'm not too keen on the wii... and they would tinker with the games

  • Oops, sorry about that last comment, I posted it before watching the whole video, just seconds before you mentioned that it's possible to get the skill later. Oh well, no harm done, eh?

  • Nice video HC, however, it is possible to learn Pandora's Box from Jenova Absolute as well. I did. Just thought I'd let you know!

  • I have my final fantasy VII right beside me... boy, ever since I unhooked my PS1 I haven't been able to play it... but this should help me out :D

  • 3 Ribbons and Mystiles. Nice. I love that little trick to get the 3rd Mystile.

  • I always remember the difference like this.

    Stala C tite

    Stala G mite

    C for ceiling

    G for ground

  • Stalactites cling tightly to the ceiling. Stalagmites are mighty on the floor.

    That's a silly device my sister told me decades ago to remember which is which. But when they connect, I don't know what it's called.

  • May I make the friendly suggestion not to rush the final battles so that we get to witness their full grandeur? That is, if you haven't recorded them yet...

  • Oh Good Great Scott, Sehpiroth won't stand a chance... Oh, and the Fat Lady is warmed up!

  • The final area lack, indeed, of teamwork as you stated and in my opinion it also lacks of bosses. You know like...in FFVI before the big battle against kefka you had 3 status (one for each team) that's what FFVII lacked the most for the final area.

  • I really liked what Square did in FF8, where you split into two parties and you have to solve puzzles that way to progress through the final castle. That was really fun, and they had a LOT of puzzles. It's too bad they didn't do that in this game.

  • I love the BG music in this area, my favorite final fantasy final dungeon´s music was from Castle Pandaemonium until now...

  • Stalagmites are the ground ones. The only reason I remeber that is because of the "G" in stalagmite(g for ground, c for ceiling in stalactite).

  • .. I hate your abillitie to do cliffhangers xD

  • Stalagmites = Ceiling (as it holds on "tight", that's how I remembered).

    Stalagmites = From the Floor

  • its Stalagtites

  • LOL, i see my typo now

  • God, THAT'S the girl you get angel Whisper from?!

    Man, I searched for her for so long my first time through....

  • Lookin' good in the ribbon Cloud!!!

  • You're right about the end of FF7 missing the interesting stuff that was in FF6. I mean, the best you get is to cycle through your different teams during the final battle. I know FF6 did the same, but at least getting to the final battle was a lot more engaging.

  • I actually do notice a minor quality improvement. The advice you took seems to have helped!

  • stalagtites are on the top just remember t is on top

  • HC: Tell the fat lady she's on in FIVE!

    rofllmao! That was a good one.

  • Why don't you put the materia equiped on everybodies ultimate weapon onto the Mystiles? Mind as well.

  • Wow.. you'realmost done... :O

  • Man, hard to believe you've been on this game for about four months and it's coming to an end by Monday the latest (not sure if you're doing both final battles and the ending tomorrow). Well I look forward to FFV that's for sure. I really enjoy all these vids, probably more than I should but same probably goes for most of us.

  • ooooooh is there gonna be a trailer?

  • I hope and expect so

  • We kinda sew the trailer comming/.

  • WOOT to zelda

  • i dont know if someone has mentioned this exactly but the way i remember them...

    stalagmites are on the ground because they might reach the roof

    stalactites hold on tight to the roof

    hope this helps :)

  • It's already ending...?

  • wow final fantasy 7 is finally come to an end

  • Stalagmite has a "g" because the come from the ground, Stalctites have a "c" because they come from the celiling

  • Wow, I didn't even know those two enemy skills existed..Angel Whisper seems really overpowered (yes, even compared to all of the other overpowered abilities), though I don't think HC will have to use it. I don't think I ever went into the path HC explores in this video (thus, why I never found these particular enemy skills, I suppose..)

    Looking forward to the finale!

  • Isn't Pandora's Box like the most powerful Enemy Skill in the entire game? Even though it may not have seemed that way when the Dragon Zombie uses it on you, I remember it being exceptionally powerful once it comes into your arsenal. Of course, it still caps at 9999, unlike most of the stuff you can dish out now. =P

  • Remember, Stalagmites MIGHT hang from the top, but they don't. Actually, I remember it because M points up and T points down.

  • i agree with gabriel -.- it's kinda sad

  • I always remember stalactites and mites like this HC (from a crazy ol' cave guide referring to the direction the formations point):

    "If the ants MIGHT go UP your pants,

    your TIGHTS may come DOWN."

    He was a crazy one, that cave guide.

  • its a shame this LP is pretty much over iam gonna miss all the shitz and giggles we all had watching

  • man, i'm kinda dissapointed i missed a lotta of ur earlier LP's while you were doing them.

    just like any other FF blue mages/enemy skill has some of the best magic in the game.... if you have the patience for it.

  • Apparently once Pandora's Box is opened, it cannot be closed again...

    Unless you take the box with you, of course.

  • HCbailly I am NOT sure But I think you can Manip the Zombie dragons into using Pandoras box BUT its a bitch to Manip them. You can Also learn Shadow Flare off them as well.

  • Wow, never seen someone get every enemyskill, really puts into perspective how useless the old materias are. Does the next vid come out tomorrow? Or will you take a break till monday?

  • I managed to get them all on every E Skill materia... you have t leave Godo until disc 2 to do it though

  • Stalactite has a C for ceiling.

    Stalagmite has a G for ground.

  • since final fantasy games came off the snes it seems that they cut short off secret dungeons

  • Final Fantasy VII, was a pretty great game. Not the end all be all RPG the fanboys make it out to be. But it is still a great game.

    Although the Final area doesn't seem as epic as I remembred. Although other newer games had come out. Such as Mass Effect which as a pretty epic finale.

  • Nice fat lady comment XD

  • I dont think it will be the finely because u still have to climb down do u not. That could take some time i'd say at least 3 more vids. I have a question. im recording my ps2 using ulead and a screen capture program camtasia u might know of it um.

    When i record i get a bit of chopyness any idea on how to fix it any help would be great. i never got it before so thats why im asking.thanks in advance:D

  • On my last file where I can beat Sephiroth whenever I want I lost my opportunity to learn Pandora's Box. I forgot to have enemy skills on my characters! Doh! Pandora's Box is by far one of the coolest looking. A huge question mark in space and then the glass breaks. Isn't that awesome?

  • done already?~! :[

    damn... cant wait for your next one

  • Tell the fish to start getting ready to jump. :)

  • Someone tell the fat lady shes on in 5

    awesome

  • Hey, HCBaily, are you aware that you have an impostor posing as you? He goes by HDBaily. I don't think it's serious; he sounds 13 years old. I just thought it was funny and that you should know, if you don't already.

  • You should try and do final fantasy 12 but that would take at least 200 videos

  • Actually, including sidequests, your look at a good 300.

    it's a LONG game.

  • i'll miss this to, Poor red cures you fat lady

  • I've never done a party other than Cloud, Red and Cid...Mostly because of Omni slash, Earth Rage, and Highwind....doing a crap ton of damage...

  • I'd forgotten that "Chasing the Black-Caped Man" plays one last time in that one path in the final area. Really cool to hear it one more time, it's one of the best background tracks in the game.

  • OOO enemy skills and epic final battle! 5/5! FF6 did have team work but that complicates things a lot. I can't wait to see you play it because I want to know how you would set up your party. Your set ups are always Interesting! glad you enjoyed this LP i know I enjoyed watching it! OOO I can't wait for the final battle!

  • You oughtta do Final Fantasy IX, HC. That's my favorite anyways.

    IX's last dungeon is pretty epic IMO, but NOTHING compared to VI like you said.

  • Finally, someone else out there that likes FFIX. It is also my favorite game, though people say it sucks compared to FFVII or FFVIII But I think it is way better. IT actually forces you to use certain characters for certain jobs, not just any character for any job. Also the story line is so great in FFIX. Kuja is probably the lamest villan though.

  • FFIX is personally my 3rd fav.

    It's just so classical

  • That's like one of the only reasons I didn't like playing it. I like the little real time events or whatever they were called. The events that happened to your other party members while you were off some place else. I also liked the Chocobo Treasure hunting game. That was fun.

  • IX is my favorite as well.

    I'm sure if HC did FFIX, he wouldn't bother to get the Excalibur II. After all, it's not like he got every materia and item in this game. For example, he missed at least one Fort Condor battle because it would have taken too long to go back and do it. And he didn't bother with less-useful materia. The Excalibur II, similarly, is not worth it.

  • I too love FInal Fantasy IX. The only problem though is if HC wants to collect every item, like he's been doing with all his LP's, he'll have to rush through the game to collect the Excalibur II. And that will make his LP much less fun.

  • Or he can, since he is using an emulator, either do thee game once offscreen really fast to show how to get the excalibur 2 , or change back the acmount of time played.

  • The emulator would speed up the game clock as well.

  • Unless you've got some incredible skill or know FFIX better than the back of your hand, it's practically impossible to obtain EVERY item and still get Excalibur II.

  • Hopefully he takes his time on the LP. I'd hate for him to rush through it.

    IX's m'favorite.

  • Yeah! Can't wait for the next episode! I've really enjoyed this series and I'm going to miss it when it's over ;(

  • Has anyone noticed the URL says "XD"

    Haha...

  • ahahah...=XD

  • you should do a enemyskill-less runthrough. It really breaks the game.

  • Huh, I thought you could only run into Dragon Zombies in that last area before the final boss.
