FFX No Sphere Grid: Unfinished Business Livestreams - Part 2 - Revisiting NSG Shinryu

[@JudgeAnnibal]

The entire talk about manipulating the exact timing of the actions to get the correct move RNG makes me think that this is indeed doable with TAS (Tool Assisted Speedrun) - basically advancing the game frame by frame and "reloading" to get the exact sequence needed to make it a "non-cheated" kill demonstration. The fine line is that a TAS is still an external tool that "cheats" but only uses game inputs as its tool, unlike Farplane which is code injection/data alteration or manipulation outright. It would just be a fun "proof of concept" to see what a legit NSG Shinryu would look like with a TAS :) - I thought of this during the live alraedy but now it really settled in my brain. Now I wanna see it lmao

You can do it, I feel this is the 1 in 1 quadrillion

[@katzenreich.]

about right

[@rossr9071]

A summary of the LS brainstorm for ranking videos: 1. Rank the Mogs across the series (usefulness, annoying, etc) 2. Most memorable random encounters (these can be bosses if you didn't know they were bosses superbosses) - this one can be a little more personal 3. OST Tiers (for big engagement) , Battle themes [content id?] 4. GFs/Aeons/Summons tiers, Maybe rank the usefulness of each to their respective game, or top 10 list 5. Mini games tiers/top 10 6. NPCs in party/that never join party 7. Most frustrating mini games/bottom 10 8. "Old" characters tier list 9. Guest character tiers 10. Coolest looking spells 11. Super bosses 12. storyline moments/bosses top 10 13. Most satisfying/disappointing endings

Little late to the party but I reckon a tier list of best Cids would be fun

[@katzenreichm]

better late than never also i forward this lol

[@rpproductions6241]

Rank guest character could be one. I would say most of 4's cast would fall under this, since you get them for such a short time. 2 has numerous. 6 has Leo. Edea. Seifer. Beatrix. Seymour. I'm sure there's more.

I just finished this a few days after struggling with jehct baring in mind I've played it multiple times and on PS2,3,4,5 Xbox s, switch and laptop 😂

[@TommyBurnsTF2]

What is your Favorite Final Fantasy Game in the Series?

[@IndexInvestingWithCole]

I wonder

[@TommyBurnsTF2]

@IndexInvestingWithCole I bet.

[@queenelizabeth1926]

Is it unfinished like the twitch uploads lol

[@BitterTast3]

The closest you could get to possibly surviving Shining is giving Wakka AutoProtect, Def + 20%, HP + 30%, HP + 20% and defending AND hoping he only gets hit twice. But even that's not quite enough to survive it, I think.

[@Decade-c9k]

Shining deals magical damage, not physical.

[@BitterTast3]

@Decade-c9k Oh ok, Shell and MgDef then.

[@Karifean]

Last I calculated, you need HP +30%, HP +20%, Mag Def +20% and Mag Def +10% all on his armor AND spend a turn putting up Shell (or double HP). Sadly there seems to be no way without spending a turn for it, and well you really pretty much never get to setting it up since you're not gonna sacrifice damage turns for it and you lose it to every counter.

[@JudgeAnnibal]

@@Karifean If you need to spend a turn for all that might as well Hyper Mighty G, but then you lose the headstart anyways... Is there a way to survive the counters with some amount of PDef + Protect + Cheers? So that the setup for Wakka would be Hyper Mighty G and Defend on round 1, then waiting for Trios? Giving up autophoenix for like HP+30,HP+20,MDef+20, PDef+20 and HyperMightyG
