Detailed description: 0:00 - Game Load 0:12 - Shinra Manor The party resumes at the Front Gate area in front of Shinra Manor. The main scenario "Tracking the Turks" is in progress. The party warps to Costa del Sol in the Corel Region. 1:15 - Costa del Sol The party checks the Community Noticeboard in front of the Bar del Sol (1:34). They sign up for the final job, "Can't Stop Won't Stop". The client calls themself the Ultimate Party Animal, and they are at the Entrance of the Gold Saucer. Having gone through this quest, there is something else I would rather do to this Ultimate Party Animal. The party warps to the Gold Saucer. 2:02 - Gold Saucer - Entrance In the Entrance area of the Gold Saucer, Cloud approaches the dancing Shinra Middle Manager for a cutscene (2:26). Corel Region Quest 9: "Can't Stop Won't Stop" begins. Cloud receives the Flyer for the UPA Challenge key item. He must beat the Shinra Middle Manager's scores in five of the minigames at the Gold Saucer: Galactic Saviors, Musclehead Colosseum, Chocobo Races, G-Bike, and Queen's Blood. Cloud starts at the Aspiring Party Animal rank. Cloud takes the Guide Moogle to Chocobo Square. 4:58 - Gold Saucer - Chocobo Square Cloud talks to the Shinra Middle Manager in Chocobo Square (5:40). Cloud undertakes the UPA's chocobo racing challenge. 5:48 - The UPA Stakes Cloud chooses Fango for the challenge. After equipping Fango, he proceeds to the race (6:07). The UPA Stakes is a three-lap race. Fortunately, the only other opponent is the Shinra Middle Manager himself. After some of those ridiculous Legend Races, the UPA Stakes is not so bad. Of course, it does have some obstacles and hazards, particularly Cactuar Gates. That is why I like Fango's Chocojump ability. The Shinra Middle Manager is not a terribly tough opponent, but his bird does have an ability that can shock and immobilize the player for a bit. Cloud wins the UPA Stakes in one attempt (11:03). He earns the Mecha-Chocobo, a mechanical chocobo that he can ride in the Chocobo Races. 11:12 - Gold Saucer - Chocobo Square An event takes place after Cloud wins the UPA Stakes. He ranks up to an Amateur Party Animal. Cloud takes the Guide Moogle to Speed Square. 11:55 - Gold Saucer - Speed Square In the Speed Square game room, Cloud approaches the Shinra Middle Manager for a cutscene (12:24). He must beat the UPA's high score in Galactic Saviors. After saving, Cloud talks to the Galactic Saviors Crew Member (13:23). The Expert difficulty is unlocked. The Rank I target score is 25,000. The Rank II target score is 35,000. The Rank III target score is 45,000. The UPA target score is 50,000. Cloud chooses to ride the Expert-difficulty Galactic Saviors. 13:29 - Galactic Saviors - Expert There is a tutorial for "Galactic Saviors: Expert". Notably, the player's craft does not regenerate HP, Restorative Charges restore less HP, and dodging with barrel rolls consumes energy. Cloud starts the Expert-difficulty game (13:34). In the end, Cloud exceeds the UPA target score of 50,000 points (18:37). 18:52 - Gold Saucer - Speed Square An event takes place after Cloud's victory. "Galactic Saviors - Expert Rank I" complete. Cloud earns an X-Potion and 200 Gold Saucer Points. "Galactic Saviors - Expert Rank II" complete. Cloud earns 3 pieces of Dark Matter and 270 Gold Saucer Points. "Galactic Saviors - Expert Rank III" complete. Cloud earns the Space Ranger Medal of Honor accessory and 350 Gold Saucer Points. "Galactic Saviors - Expert UPA" complete. Cloud earns 400 Gold Saucer Points. Cloud earns the atypical rank of Typical Party Animal. The Space Ranger Medal of Honor accessory increases the wearer's Strength and Magic by 10%. Cloud takes the Guide Moogle to Battle Square. 20:35 - Gold Saucer - Battle Square The party saves. Yuffie takes Aerith's Revival Materia, and Barret takes Tifa's Revival Materia. Barret takes the Time Materia and Magnify Materia from Tifa. Yuffie gives the Steal Materia to Aerith and takes the Poison Materia and Synergy Materia from her. Cloud already has a Safety Bit, which will provide immunity to instant death. Barret equips the other Safety Bit. The party transmutes a third Safety Bit, which Yuffie equips. In the lobby of Musclehead Colosseum, Cloud talks to the Shinra Middle Manager (22:43). 22:55 - Musclehead Colosseum - UPA Challenge Cloud enters "UPA Challenge: Send in the Clowns", a series of five three-person bouts. The party chooses a lineup of Cloud, Yuffie, and Barret. In Round 1, the party confronts a Gigantuar and a Gargantuar. If you thought they were bad separately, wait until you encounter these prickly fiends together. In Round 2, the party faces 10, count 'em, 10 Tonberries. Their Scourge attacks can paralyze party members for the dreaded Chef's Knife attack. However, Safety Bits protect against the instant death effect from Chef's Knife. Of course these hate-filled fiends are still dangerous. In Round 3, the party faces an Ember Zu. If there is one plus to this round, there is only one enemy. It is weak to ice-elemental damage, and exploiting this weakness will pressure it. In Round 4, the party faces two Jokers and a Gigantoad. The Jokers are weak to wind-elemental attacks. The Gigantoad is weak to ice-elemental attacks. Disabling its Tongue when the Tongue is out will pressure the fiend. In Round 5, the party faces an Ironclad, an iron giant with a huge sword. It is weak to lightning-elemental damage. After a certain amount of time, it uses Sharpen and becomes pressured. If not staggered soon afterwards, it unleashes a powerful attack. In addition to strong sword attacks, it uses Firaga and Graviga. The party eventually clears "UPA Challenge: Send in the Clowns" (47:13). They earn 300 Gold Saucer Points. 47:33 - Gold Saucer - Battle Square An event with the Shinra Middle Manager follows this insane series of bouts. Cloud achieves the rank of Renowned Party Animal. Whee doggy. Cloud takes the Guide Moogle to Wonderment Square. 48:27 - Gold Saucer - Wonderment Square After saving, Cloud approaches the Shinra Middle Manager on the G-Bike platform for an event (49:11). Naturally, Cloud must beat the UPA's high score in G-Bike. Cloud examines the G-Bike (49:56). The Expert difficulty is unlocked. The Rank I target score is 23,000. The Rank II target score is 27,000. The Rank III target score is 31,000. The UPA target score is 32,000. Cloud chooses to ride the Expert-difficulty G-Bike. 49:59 - G-Bike - Expert Cloud double-checks the "G-Bike" tutorial. Afterwards, he begins playing Expert-difficulty G-Bike (50:08). There are plenty of enemy bikers this time around. Grab as many of the pickups and defeat as many enemies as possible while avoiding enemy attacks, especially the bombs. In the end, Cloud ekes past the UPA's high score of 32,000 points (53:50). 54:06 - Gold Saucer - Wonderment Square An event with the Shinra Middle Manager takes place. "G-Bike - Expert Rank I" complete. Cloud earns an Astral Remnant and 200 Gold Saucer Points. "G-Bike - Expert Rank II" complete. Cloud earns 3 pieces of Dark Matter and 270 Gold Saucer Points. "G-Bike - Expert Rank III" complete. Cloud earns a Limit Booster accessory and 350 Gold Saucer Points. "G-Bike - Expert UPA" complete. Cloud earns 400 Gold Saucer Points. Cloud attains the rank of Enviable Party Animal. After saving, Cloud talks to the Shinra Middle Manager at a Queen's Blood table in the southeast (55:32). Of course, he must now beat the UPA's high score in Queen's Blood. So, Cloud challenges him to QB. 55:45 - Queen's Blood - Shinra Middle Manager Cloud edits his deck and adds the Emerald Witch card that he earned from Vincent. Then, he starts the match against the Shinra Middle Manager (56:44). This game starts with the Ultimate Party Animal card in the middle. If this card is in play when the round ends, the loser of each lane's score is added to the victor's. The Shinra Middle Manager can use the Dio card, which can be quite dangerous. Cloud wins the match (1:00:10). For defeating the Shinra Middle Manager, he earns the No. 142: Ultimate Party Animal card. 1:00:30 - Gold Saucer - Wonderment Square A cutscene takes place after Cloud's victory. Cloud achieves the rank of Magnificent Party Animal. To supplant the Shinra Middle Manager as the Ultimate Party Animal, though, Cloud must best him in 3D Brawler. Oh, joy. After saving, Cloud talks to the Shinra Middle Manager at the stairs leading to the 3D Brawler (1:01:41). 1:01:56 - 3D Brawler - Shinra Middle Manager The Shinra Middle Manager is a tough opponent. He can use Straights, Hooks, and Uppercuts with each hand, and identifying them on the fly can be a challenge. However, he only has two combination moves, and successfully dodging them gives the player an opening to strike. In the end, Cloud shatters the Shinra Middle Manager's glass jaw (1:03:08). However, this minigame took me several tries, which I left off-screen. The description is continued in a reply.

Description continuation: 1:03:25 - Gold Saucer - Wonderment Square A cutscene takes place after Cloud defeats the Shinra Middle Manager. He is now the Ultimate Party Animal. It's almost worth suffering through all those minigames. Maybe the Shinra Middle Manager ought to change jobs and come to work here. The party earns an orb of Gambler Materia. "Can't Stop Won't Stop" complete! The party earns 10 party EXP and 2,900 EXP. The player earns the trophy "My Job Here Is Done" for completing all quests in the game. The tutorial "3D Brawler: A New Challenger Appears". An insanely powerful new opponent is available in 3D Brawler, as if the Shinra Middle Manager weren't enough. However, there might be an excellent reward for toppling that new opponent. The Gambler Materia gives the user the Gamble ability, which allows the character to use an ability or spell from the party's equipped Materia at random. However, spells cast with Gamble consume MP. Cloud saves near the Guide Moogle. There is still more side content to do. Next time, the party will finish getting concussed at the 3D Brawler before they head to the Musclehead Colosseum. Thanks for watching!
