This is the second time I've tried getting into this game and it is just not working for me. GF animations, even with the speed up function, take way too long (And are a visual and audio mess due to the speed up) and are pretty much the best way to deal damage because the bosses have so much HP. I'm sure there's a better way to optimize the systems, which seem incredibly complex and I imagine provide a lot of customization for how to play. I honestly prefer the simplicity of the materia system from FFVII. At least I got this on sale.
