He only makes 1 attack a turn and it's way harder than Necron, the final boss, who makes 4 of these a turn. At least the moogle that lives there warns you before you try to fight it and get your ass kicked.
Because it's basically 1 attack per every YOUR turn. It's like how in Legend of Dragoon there were 2 (or 3?) bosses that got multiple turns in a row based on how much damage you were doing to them. That ALONE made them the toughest encounters in the game.

Breath of the Wild Master Mode: So much for being a bit more liberal with weapons. Crossed the wetlands and struck East past Boné Pond intending to climb Lanayru Tower. One too many black bokoblins later and I'm avoiding the rest of the little devils in order to get to the tower. Activated the tower though I can't remember for the life of me what I intended to do next. I'm reluctant to head down to the river right now - Prince Sidon gets on my nerves and I'm not equipped for a journey up to Zora's Domain anyway

Okay, that makes it worse than I remembered.

Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy

Since today was a bonus day, I decided to train both Prishe and Vaan. Two characters (and possibly two days more) and I'll start Confessions of the Creator.

Picked up my LeafGreen save that I haven't played in 10 years. Really fun getting reacquainted with my old team. Apparently I never beat the rematch roster of the E4, so trying to do that but my team is underlevelled so its hard >.< When that's done, I'm gonna go beat the Battle Tower--really want the special ribbon from it.

Finished getting everyone to at least level 60 since today was double experience day. I have divided all the characters in six random groups of five so everyone can take part of Confessions of the Creator.

Group 1: Prishe, Exdeath, Cloud, Terra and Golbez.
Group 2: Squall, Kuja, Tidus, Kain and Bartz.
Group 3: Cecil, Gilgamesh, Yuna, Ultimecia and Lightning.
Group 4: Tifa, Cloud of Darkness, Laguna, Warrior of Light and Zidane.
Group 5: Firion, Sephiroth, Gabranth, Kefka and the Emperor.
Group 6: Jecht, Garland, Onion Knight, Shantotto and Vaan.

Well, here I go...

IIRC correctly what I read on the FF fan wiki, every time a party member targets Ozma with any action, its ATB meter gets instantly filled, giving it a pre-emptive turn on yours. The good news is that it can't take more than two turns in a row; the bad news is this can occur AFTER its normal ATB turn, thus giving it two turns in a row.

I can't believe this [REDACTED] game forced me to cheat. I'm so pissed off right now, I have seen cheap boss characters like Shao Kahn or Geese Howard, but at least they sometimes give you time to breath. Not Feral Chaos, who managed to kill me before I even had a chance to react. Kudos to all the people that managed to beat him fairly, specially because picking Moderate difficulty doesn't affect the fight. If you excuse me, I'll keep playing that Naruto game I picked a while back. That game doesn't make me swear like a sailor.

Dissidia Final Fantasy Opera Omnia (mobile)

Just doing some co-op battles for the Crossroads of Illusions II fight. I'm using Zidane (fully limit broken, with his 15CP, WoI, 35CP, and EX passives) since I don't often use him otherwise. He's fun for these kinds of fights and I like him as a character in FFIX so I enjoy the chance to use him in these events that don't have boosted characters, even if I use technically stronger characters in single-player content.

Final Fantasy IX (Switch) - I think I'm finally ready to push through with the main story content after hours of doing sidequests in disc 3. I haven't even uncovered all of the available Chocographs yet, but I don't think I have the patience to keep doing that right now.

I have the weird sensation that once I finish the story I will feel happy, but empty after last time. I just want to get over with the story now so I can do other things.

Naruto: Ultimate Ninja

Let's see, I just have unlocked Zabuza's "story" (it's more like an Arcade Mode). Meaning that the only characters I'm missing are Gaara, Orochimaru, Kyuubi Naruto and Cursed Seal Sasuke. I will possibly unlock them today.

I've decided to replay all the core series pokemon games (excluding Let's Go, b/c i don't have a switch). I'm making these my definitive playthroughs meaning I'm going to try my best to complete them 100% or as close to 100% a I can and keeping these save files for many years. My teams in those games will probably go to the current generation when I am 100% done with those games. I going to try to complete a living dex in each of them.

So far I've entered the HOF in RBY and am going around finishing up any loose ends that need completing (ie in-game trades, collecting all TMs). Completing the Pokedex will require patience and because these are my "definitive" playthroughs, the Pokedex may not be completed for a long time. Which I'm ok with as I'm not planning on playing these games on my GBA/DS/3DS again, or at least not for many years.

I will likely start Gold next week.

Space Empires V: For the short term, I have reason to keep Battlefleet Green in commission. The Cue Cappa, tenacious as ever, seem to have built a fleet of nine ships in Quintar, including several dreadnoughts. Between Battlefleet Green (Siege) the fleet can't really go anywhere, though I hope it tries to warp into Fornax - since the Dexter half is waiting with big guns to on them as they warp through. But in any case this probably means bringing the Sinister and Dexter halves of the main battlefleet together, along with the cruisers of the battlefleet reserve. The question is whether to do anything about Quintar now. Logistically, at this point it wouldn't be any more difficult to send a siege fleet to Quintar than to Uphada.

Along the marches I think it's worth bringing in drone patrols to Spica. For some reason the Drushocka Empire has more ships to spare lately - none are a military threat, but if the Sheward Sovereignty has access to their sensor data then they are a security breach. Battlefleet Blue finally has all the ships it needs, properly reorganised - that's about 35 in total, across both halves of the fleet

Completed Yakuza 0 and Yakuza Kiwami over the past couple of weeks. The PS4 ports of 3/4/5 won't be localized for months, so I think I'll take a break from for a while before playing Kiwami 2. Don't wanna get burnt out.

Breath of the Wild Master Mode: Decided to quest after ancient shafts, so headed West towards Great Plateau in search of Dah Kaso Shrine. There seem to be a lot of floating platforms around Digdogg Suspension Bridge. Found the Shrine, though no ancient shaft drop this time. Collecting chests and korok seeds around the lake proved to be a real pain - the bokoblin horse archers in Gerudo Canyon Pass got me once, and the moblins on the other side nearly got me a second time. In the end I found myself gliding across Regencia River to get hold of the chests on the Western side.

I've had enough of navigating this region without a map, so next objective will be Central Tower

Dance Dance Revolution X2 (PS2)
Just got off Wii Fit U, now I'm firing this one up to do some songs. Probably at least 10, I dunno. Wish I had a better, newer dance mat to use; all three that we have in the house are, like, 10 years old at least, and boy is it obvious when you're playing.

I recently picked up the Nintendo Labo VR starter kit. Assembled it and had a little fun browsing around the program (and apparently I still need to clean the screen on my Switch more). Then I tried Breath of the Wild's "VR mode". It's not as immersive as I'd hoped, plus I had to turn it off after about 10m due to a little motion sickness. Still, it was awesome to see Hyrule in actual 3D.

Meanwhile, in Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate I soloed highrank Shagaru for HR7 (despite dong a variety of quests with other people online, I insist on doing my urgent quests solo, at least until G-rank). Then proceeded to battle it a few more times for parts to make its armor set and upgrade my Gore weapons to Shagaru level.
