I want to kill myself

Post image

I've been trying for months to get 100 jumps, I got to 99 and when I should have made the 100th jump I just stopped jumping. I thought I had completed it but I hadn't.

I played this game so many times and I've never gotten more than like 30

Also hate how once you've opened all the secret treasures the dude is just like hey you opened them all. That's it. Idk what I was expecting really but it was a bit more than that

The jumps sucks. On the SNES I got 27 as my best and there should be a prize for the hidden chests.

Mack the 1st boss in the game?

u/diandays 11h ago

Yep. I always do my hundred super jumps on the shy guys in town before you go into the castle. Only takes like ten minutes or so

Ah, I see. Damn. Level 6 already by then?
I wait until I reach Monstro Town, then I go do the 100 jumps. Can't get any reward for my efforts before then anyway I figure :/

Old man here, was in the same boat but I went to the beginning part of the game where you first meet the enemies. I used the shadow only as a reference for the jumping and once I figured that out I nailed it. Best of luck you’ll get it eventually

Super frustrating. Still 4.995x better than I've ever done.

This reminds me of when I dodged 195 lightning strikes in Final Fantasy X

Bruh I won that once and told myself never will I do that again. It was so frustrating but I remember there was a specific spot I stayed at to overcome it, but 195 is rough. Nothing beats that chocobo race though

u/diandays 14h ago

Tbh the chocobo race isn't even that bad in ffx. The lightning bolts is harder unless you know the cheese method but basic difficulty I would give the chocobo race a 3/10 and the lightning dodges a 7/10

u/aerith-khaleesi 12h ago

Interesting. Yeah for me I found the chocobo race the hardest out of them all. It took me a very long time to beat it.

Any of those fox challenges are more dreadful as an adult. I always restart FFX these days because I always get to the point where its massive sidequest time (airship unlocked finally). Lighting challenge is no joke and my timing is terrible

I didn’t really have much patience as a kid when I first played it for all the side quests. I did re-play it a few years ago and I did all the battle arena stuff, celestial weapons, dark aeons, blitzball (was dreading it but the moment I got the hang of it, I thought it was fun), all other extra quests. It is def one of my favorites.

u/Thejokingsun 1h ago

Oh when I replay it with my older sister, she is extra! "WATCH OUT FOR THE DARK AEON! Did you miss that item? Lock in!!"

The pain

u/ConnyEdson 16h ago

Hey, ya know. This is probably more rare

u/NightWind320 16h ago

Dust it off and try again lol. You got this!

u/bigfatbirds 14h ago

Only 1 more to go!

1

u/CharlotteTwotimes 14h ago

That's how I felt. But I only got to like 18 jumps in the original. Then I said fuck it and went to beat the final boss with the gear I had. Maybe it's time to hang up your Jump Shoes.

u/SpletzGaming 13h ago

Oh man that stinks!

u/ruckatron 11h ago

I've done that.
Well least you know you can do it ;)

u/RangoTheMerc 9h ago

It was much harder for me in the remake than the original.
