nice video. i cont understand how you cant say cant kinda sounds like your saying cunt lol.

[@gamerjack5631]

next video is ff5 puixel remastered

[@sinsung4159]

The answer to your question is no you can't beat final fantasy 10 using only magic you stupid B I T C H. Don't ever make another video again. You are terrible.

[@alexandrosmourelatos7690]

Sooo did you forget Seymour is weak to poison in most his forms? I am pretty sure Bio is a Black Magic spell. And a surprisingly...large amount of creatures are weak to poison in this game Like Seymour flux for example gets butchered by it.

[@Selene-ex1jz]

The difficulties for the final boss was actually karma for that balloon race flex! :D

[@pod2781]

Primal: I'll be able to use Kimahri's Overdrive... Me: Aww, sweet, my favorite FF character is gonna come in clutch for this challenge! Primal: ...but I won't be able to use Lancet. Me: 🙃

[@TheBronf]

ya. kimahri doesn't get much love from players often. its seems us who do like him are rare.

[@cfilorvyls457]

His personality just lacks impact imo. He's somewhat like Squall but somehow even more silent.@@TheBronf

[@jiaan100]

He doesn't get used because furries are gross

[@newironside]

​@TheBronf He could be written out of the story no problem and has no purpose to his own in combat.

[@blaze6626]

42:45 You said it was impossible for you to kill Yu Yevon at this stage. But it actually was possible. Every time Yu Yevon uses Gravija, he damages himself for 9,999 damage which he doesn't heal. All you had to do was just defend over and over again until he was in range for Tidus to finish him off.

[@ledergesicht2763]

When I saw this all I thought of was a line from an old cartoon (Jackie Chan Adventures) "Magic must defeat magic" - Uncle

[@GreyWind1988]

ONE MORE THING!

[@Estus1999]

I love your Challenge runs and overpowered videos. I'm actually really hoping we get a edited video of ff7 limits only in the future.

[@Primalliquid92]

? ive already done that lol check the playlist

[@Bobolash]

Wow, the dedication you put into your challenge runs are insane! Thanks for sharing them with us!

[@Primalliquid92]

More to come!

[@Oakeybloke]

Must be chatting on stream while doing this, you'd go mad doing this level of grind on your own! Unless Primal went mad a while ago... 🤔😅

[@nicholasjackson8709]

Wakka's combat animation at 4x speed looks like he's doing John Cena's "can't see me" 😂

[@85wutaiflea]

I will take your bait, and call out the outrage of getting the 0.0 run so easily. It genuinely took me OVER TWENTY YEARS to do ONCE.

[@bohottie]

Cap. I think the difficulty is way overstated.

[@genghishank1]

@@bohottie what has you wearing a cap got to do with what he said?

[@Its__Good]

It genuinely took me like 4 evenings off trying.

[@tomithy_lo]

My first time finishing it I was 17. I was replaying ffx with a friend who had never beaten the Evrae fight. When we did the race we took turns and after about 2 hours (and both of us getting exactly 0.0 a few times) I finally got the perfect run. My buddy was so mad he didn't get to be the one who beat it. Good memories

[@infamousjustice7083]

It is very very not fun 0/10 would not recommend

[@hughmandingo645]

Can you beat ffx by using only (filps card) blitzball.

[@grieveromega6060]

Wakka: hold my beer.

[@VeshSneaks]

Genuinely love watching these videos. One of my favourite things in JRPGs is the way their systems can be manipulated. Whether it's completely snapping the balance over your knee like a twig, or limiting how you can play, there's nothing quite like it. I just wish I had the patience to do it myself, but then that's why I love your channel so much. Keep it up Primal!

[@dannyhearn5348]

Start of this week all I wanted was to watch a magic only FFX run and was gutted when I saw you didn't have one. Amazingly you pulled through as you always do. Great video.

[@craigfunk3453]

Great work on a challenge that was mostly the opening grind. Though you banned customization, you technically could have looked at gear you could buy from shops or even gotten as drops from certain area mobs as a way to cover your bases mostly for extra hp/mp if you didn't want to go for gear with increased magic damage output or things like auto buffs or even the elemental eater which would have completely erased Seymour's final battle

[@katanajim1454]

With each and every challenge you do, you never cease to amaze me with something that just blows my mind that anyone even thought about, and it forever changes my perspective on the game as a whole. "We start things off right at the very start of the game." Literal game changer. How do you do it?

[@Primalliquid92]

its a gift i guess

[@ChronoTriggerHappy]

jesus christ, just dropping that "jail bait strips" line while im eating nearly killed me i choked so hard.

[@Primalliquid92]

my work here is done!

[@soli6026]

I’m loving these challenge runs, they’re nice, long and interesting keep them up

[@Primalliquid92]

thank you! trying my hardest

[@SuperTrailerz]

There’s a chest in the area leading up to Seymour Omnis that contains an armor piece for Yuna that absorbs 3 elements

[@rowanmorris2187]

Fantastic vid my dude! Very well done!!

[@LifesToughQuestions]

My favourite is the fact that almost every couple of minutes you say and Tidus does die. Poor guy can't catch a break

[@jonathanjohnston1064]

You are a braver man than I. As difficult as this was for you on PC, I don't want to think what id have to do for a ps4 run like this. Nightmare fuel. Well done you, though. Keep up the excellent work

[@Primalliquid92]

this is why i do most runs on the PC for 10 because of the speedup booster

[@cronoluminara6911]

This is gonna be ruff lol been playing for 20 years plus and I see beginning being ok but mid to late so hard maybe I guess a lot of time good luck :) thanks for the great vids as always

[@SuperEkkorn]

Love the run! But for anyone else, Ochu's normal drop is the mp spheres, the hp is the rare. So for a run like this it's well worth beating him!

[@jobowarlock]

Fun challenge! For the Spherimorph, to avoid healing him, just defend until he casts magic. That tell you what the current element is. Then just hit it with the opposing magic :)

[@adamraserovaquera]

This guy trying an imposible run and then casually putting everyone else on the ground out of shame because he felt like riding a chocobo

[@Primalliquid92]

teehee

[@HardstyleZilink]

I think it's funny how you were calling Biran Yenke and Yenke Biran the entire time lmao.

[@connorlarkinbass]

I've been playing FF2 using only magic and it honestly makes the game way more fun. I would love to see you make a video of that! Thanks again for another great video!

[@LinkMan1NeoGAF]

I imagine the souls are a pain.

[@connorlarkinbass]

@@LinkMan1NeoGAF there's actually a very sneaky thing you can do to defeat them. I wanna see if Primal will figure it out.

[@bleauh]

Enjoyed the video! I found it interesting though that the rules prohibited Lancet (a magical attack) but allowed Jump and Seed Cannon (physical attacks). Magic can't crit (unless it's Nova) so it would have altered the Negator strat a fair bit if only magical attacks were allowed!

[@xLilKirax]

It had been a while since I watched some of your vids, but I realized I never watched your FFX 100% playthrough, and here I am again! Missed your videos/commentary/jokes and energy on videos :) I remember a while back there was a sad video that you weren't getting as many views and stuff, hope it turned around or turns around!

[@ralerxwinterstone2726]

First thing that came to mind was how the macalania albeh machina with the anti magic field would be impossible but after listening to the rules kimahri overdrive will need to one shot it and it should be doable. Cant wait to watch the video.

[@velvetbutterfly]

The celestials would give you Break Damage Limit which probably would have helped. They also just have some very nice stuff like Initiative, MP Cost 1, Boost.

[@jjquinn295]

You can't get any of them without the airship

[@velvetbutterfly]

@@jjquinn295 you can get Kimahri's, Tidus' and Wakka's, but was the airship banned?

[@LarryJ2022]

A bit more strict than I'd do, I'd allow double cast. Very nicely done though. You're always entertaining!

[@Miikathemachine]

Epic content. Thanks for keeping ffx alive!

[@buddhapunch2486]

Seriously one of the best in the series on every category

[@pulsefel9210]

there was a guide id always follow for FFX runs that said all ultimas were shell peircing. i know thats not true cause i tested it personally. maybe they were only talking about seymours

[@meowmeow-jk3sm]

What a happy coincidence, I rewatched your Gf only ff8 run and trance only ff9 yesterday and now you posted this!!!! Awesome stuff my dude!

[@Primalliquid92]

new videos every friday so remember to subscribe if you arnt already so you dont miss them!

[@Fine_Mouche]

Next i want a run where each character do they weakest role ! Lulu or yuna as dmg dealer, wakka as healer etc ... !

[@Owlcoconut]

These sorts of vids are so cool, well done for powering through this challenge!

[@jaredwalley5692]

I'm actually doing this right now. 3 white mages, 4 black mages. A bit too easy by Bevelle, but it's my first challenge.

[@Teyeranitar]

For anyone wondering, 4X and 2X speed were the cause of the crashes during the Yu Yevon fight. Always turn the speed up off during that fight’s “cutscenes” and those crashes won’t happen.

[@Primalliquid92]

no they were not, i always use speedup during those fights and never have crashes

[@Teyeranitar]

@@Primalliquid92 I’ll bet you 50 quid that you could go reload that auto save that kept crashing and turn speed up off and it would have been fine. Speed up doesn’t make it crash every time. But every crash I’ve ever had on Yu Yevon was solved by turning speed up off. These speed up crashes have been mentioned by Berk in his videos before. I’m not making this up lol.

[@StevenLemens]

Representing an only flans hoodie, Truly a great buy

[@Primalliquid92]

ah a person of culture

[@ignaciolopezrodriguez3649]

I'd LOVE to see the next challenge runs: 1. Beat the game only with 2 fighters present on fights. This means every character might be usable but only 2 at the same time (same effect as if one fighter would escape right at the beginning of each fight). IDK if it's moddable. Also see if you could beat dark aeons, creations, and further opponents. 2. Same as before, but only 1 fighter simultaneously. 3. Beat the game with the monsters and enemies on the actual game until the progress you're on (IDK if it's possible). For example, the first usable characters in ground would be dingo, condor and water flan.

[@LightKing1237]

Bro I can't believe the biggest threat to the run was literally just the game itself crashing

[@Primalliquid92]

dont forget tros, the first boss in the game

[@matthewmontgomery6885]

"Can you beat FFX with only magic?" The real answer, no. Crawler/Nullifier should have been the end point. Nullifier blocks fury, but not Ronso rage, ergo, ronso rage is not magic. But I get the need for "it's basically blue magic" so that the run had a chance haha 😅 Fun run to watch as always though!

[@MrTylerWpg]

me: well i guess that's a lot of grinding with Rikku "Grinding fish for 1ap" ONE?!?!? Sweet Yunalesca Save us all!

[@Calvados656]

"Adds a bunch of over the top and unnecessary restrictions to his run" "I cant believe how restrictive this run is!" Sorry this made me laugh lol.

[@thexenocide6013]

that godforsaken chocobo minigame always takes me like two hours. kudos on doing it in three shots

[@jinxx9515]

For whatever reason, the chocobo race was always easy to me. It's always taken me less than 10 attempts.

[@jessicawilcox8439]

I wish videos like these were a series rather than one episode. I would love to watch the boss fights / one of each normal encounters

[@jfrancis2768]

I've beaten it no sphere grid once, only once, I can't imagine how long these videos take to make, you do a great job but still insanity

[@ricksanchez-qx5zz]

Damn man’s bringing content after content on the quick thanks for suffering for us dude👌

[@Primalliquid92]

:) ive been promosing this for awhile after all

[@adamraserovaquera]

Man, I would love to see this run on FFIII

[@OdinAUT]

Yuna, Yuna, YUNA, YUNA...that actually made me giggle :)

[@EJmaw]

That Hastega ban is quite the twist.

[@theevilgood]

First question: Hell No. Second Question: FF8 using only items

[@Kain_Highwind_]

I did! I used only Yuna and Lulu with their black magic because I couldn't understand nothing abouth Sphere Grid when I was a child. I did this challenge without knowing! 🤣

[@justyz3648]

Incredible video!! Love these challenge vids of yours so much. Did have one question. Did you get an Echo Bangle from Ochu? Wouldn't that protect against Silence on Lulu? Or was one of the challenge rules that you can't put on equipment like that? 😃

[@theopeneyes]

You were wise to dis-allow Lancet. I did a "Kimahri only" run on my PS2 ages ago and Lancet is hilariously broken on characters building their Magic stat, you literally can't die with it outside of instant death mechanics and dealing with undead enemies.

[@jackcullen435]

On my second play of FFX this year, I did the 0.0 Chocobo race in my first attempt. I was laughing my arse off at the disbelief haha!

[@BigHeadClan]

Honestly the Chocobo race in under 0 seconds isn’t too bad. The one mistake most people do is using the analog sticks. Use the D pad and micro correct and you will get it eventually. Controls are clunky no matter what but it makes it way easier I find.

[@jeremytoney9367]

The next time you decide to do a magic only run Create a Keynote presentation PlayStation 4 and then use the save wizard program to edit your save and only give yourself all items and everything. The only time you’re going to use those items is why did the first after you get your first smell, then you wouldn’t use any more items. Basically what you would do is you would give yourself enough MP spheres to go through maybe 80 100 250 magic points and then after that you wouldn’t use items anymore. You basically would use them to get to that point if you gave yourself the option. On the other hand, you could essentially give yourself all abilities, and if you did that, then you wouldn’t have to go around the sphere grid on the other hand you could do it this way the way I’m suggesting with save wizard give yourself enough MP spheres in the empty spaces that would allow you to go for a little bit and update yourself and you would only use the MP spheres to add to those empty spaces between your starting point and your first spell

[@GlacierRain]

Incredible run and great effort. Thanks for the Yuna bug though that was funny!

[@Groovy_Gordon]

Fun run; mad respect to the time you put in. I would have melee grinded tidus to go above 12 mp for sure; you have sick commitment. I do think it's funny how you ban haste then immediately decide to use haste instead of grind Kimahari. Edit: Just wanted to specify, this isn't a knock on the run or rules. I just think the juxtaposition is funny.

[@Primalliquid92]

simple time commitment, figured id try haste to see if speed was all i needed, if it worked then great i saved 3 hours of grinding

[@dlarsh]

Wow, I was not expecting this run to be that much of a challenge; definitely a surprise lol. Ggs Primal.

[@Primalliquid92]

honestly sam, Tros was a shock

[@Greysmdl]

By my count 43 times Yuna is said by Tidus 41:56-42:00 Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Bonus* 42:38 - 42:40 Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Super Bonus* 46:24 - 46:30 Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Yuna Even though I was expecting the ending outro, I am very happy that you included it.

[@rileymiller3154]

Lulu's overdrive (literally worse than a normal spell cast for most spells)

[@reloadpsi]

Except in the strangely niche situation of an NSG speedrun where you apply quartet of 9 to her.

[@CaptainThief]

@26:22 wrt hastega ban midway, maybe the characters were gleefully using hastega, but then found out it was making them age quicker too?

[@Primalliquid92]

yea gotta stay young and good looking when saving the world!

[@Faramir1104]

Great dedication. I enjoyed this episode!

[@Oakeybloke]

Loving the style points for the chocobo race, from someone who's never done it 😂 One of these days I'll sit down and try, as a more experienced gamer compared to PS2 me, but those awful memories of trying it back in the day keep me away 😅🤣

[@Philly20690]

Should do only blitz teams run through, and play and max out blitzball

[@tragicdirty3519]

I have been wanting to this exact challenge run for as long as I can remember but never really had the time ❤

[@pulsefel9210]

there are 2 arrangements of balloons that are even possible. if you dont get them you cant get enough balloons even without a single bird hit to beat the clock. bad luck means people just never see them. and 1 has JUST enough and the other has so many but BIRDS FREAKING EVERYWHERE.

[@rightwing707]

Absolutely bonkers. In theory this run's core concept gets a lot easier when you reach Mi'ihen, but some of the bosses were certainly more puzzling than normal. I rarely use magic unless it's through Yuna who always ends up with a higher magic stat than Lulu in my runs. It was pretty ballsy to (soft) ban Hastega right before the Flux fight, but you managed so kudos there. Those crashes would've sent my fist through a wall too. Time for an upgrade/driver update maybe? I never had issues with my Steam version thankfully and it ended up being the first platform I'd beat Penance legitimately on.

[@Primalliquid92]

nah i think it was just a case of all the mods ive used over the years have just been fucky with the files, works perfectly fine now after a proper removal and reinstall

[@kalythai]

I remember doing the Chocobo Racing on PC. I tried to set up Cheat Engine to give me 0.0 seconds. But since I am a dummy, I had to do the race many many times to set up the Cheat Engine. (Un?)fortunately, I raced so many times while setting up, I got 0.0 along the way.

[@Karifean]

This was a fun run. Didn't imagine Tros would be that big of an issue. Liked how you dealt with Negator, it's the most rules-adhering way of doing it imaginable it feels ^^ GG.

[@Primalliquid92]

Tros was a complete mindfuck to me tbh i NEVER expected it to be THAT much of an issue

[@NumbersAfter]

if you've modded your game and want a clean install, it's best to uninstall the game, then go find the install folder and delete that before a re-install. Modded files tend to linger.

[@Primalliquid92]

thats exactly how i fixed it yea

[@NumbersAfter]

shame we both had to figure it out the long way lol@@Primalliquid92

[@HockeyJock310589]

the celestial weapon for yuna has the "1 MP cost" ability which probably could have been useful

[@HwL01]

He loves it the hard way I guess....

[@SoundwaveSC]

Getting it requires summoning and monster capturing. Summons are explicitly banned, and nothing can be captured due to the magic-only rule.

No way i'm ever attempting this, 25-30 hours grind are a no go for me.

I did thus challenge myself and took it to the extreme and beat all of the dark Aeon besides Anima, who is immune to magic. Dark Bahamut ended up taking me 2 and a half hours... lol. It was brutal. Shiva was also extremely difficult. I'm excited for this one, and for someone else doing the challenge, I did myself!

[@seanaugust]

Would be interested in seeing an all magic or no magic run of FFV or FFXII.

[@Durbinator]

So you said you don't know if this run is possible before this video proper kicks off (I'm writing this while he explains the rules) reflect is an easy fix just cast reflect on yourself and bounce it back at the enemies the other elemental resistance only enemies I can think of this properly effecting are flans (mainly the dark ones in Mt gagazet but shouldnt be an issue becauseyou should have flare by then or possibly ultima) cactures and the elementals but since they have elemental weaknesses aswell that shouldn't be an issue, the only spell as far as I know that isn't effected by reflect is ultima, nova (but kimahri cant use lancet so nova is out of the question)because they are AOE spell and Dispel because it removes reflect if it isn't built in to the enemies (mainly the arena ones) Edit if you are still struggling with the 0 second chocobo mini game you don't have to push forward so just focusing on turning left and right

[@ZekDrakonEX]

When start listing off Rules and possible Challenges. Was like Hi Jumbo Flan being one optional boss that like here by pass all of them with enough levelings. Leaving in my head Negator and Mp. When mention Blue magic from Kihmari i was like made me question if bypass negator anti-magic field. This was amusing to see.

[@22Pappagino]

The insanity never ceases to amaze

[@MGPW]

Can you? Yes, it turns out. (I'm surprised, I thought there might be a fight that just straight-up says "No, you have to break your rules".) Should you? Probably not. Well done there.

[@kalythai]

Primalliquid find more ways to consume ungodly amounts of hours in a video game. More at eleven.

[@masonrobinson7009]

Personal recommendation for future runs like this. Use the cheat to get 99 of all items. Don't worry about grinding pre besaid and once you have a full party use a friend sphere on everyoone to go to lulu. Then get rid of all the extra items and start the run from there. May not be as legit as what you are doing but its pretty clear that its possible and you could avoid being overleved just to start the run.

[@Primalliquid92]

no i prefer the legitness, it adds a flair that some other challenge makers dont. the integrity is what i pride myself the most on even if it means runs take alot longer

[@masonrobinson7009]

@@Primalliquid92 I respect that! Though i think you could argue that doing it the friendsphere way preserves a level of integrity in that you don't already have a black mage with -ara level spells in Besaid. That said you keep doing you man, I like the content and respect the insanity it takes to make videos like this.
