I've made it to disc two on FFIX (PSN release on my Vita), and I rescued Dagger and am about to do the Ramuh bit of the story.
Oh, I know. I made a few attempts at it back during my childhood on the good 'ol PS1 before the disc holding spindle popped out and ball bearings went everywhere. I've never made it beyond around the beginning of disc three though (when you're taken aboard Kuja's airship and dropped off on some island to do something for him). I remember at that point, I was severely under leveled and was having the hardest time just fighting the enemies on the way to the dungeon. Thus, I quit, and attempts after that got me no further than about halfway through disc one before my attention was grabbed by something else.you still have a looong road ahead, that games is very very long and on the later stages of the game the difficulty of regular enemies is ridiculous, prepare to grind.
One of the best Final Fantasy games.finally played some Final Fantasy IX, got to the gate(W/ Steiner and Dagger) on the 1st Disc.
on the way, i Fought a boss that was so annoying, i wasted all my phoenix downs and potions, vivi and zidane dead, and Freya with 10 HP..... i only had one chance, and i last saved about 3 hours ago....
One command -> Jump, 7 suspenseful seconds later, freya deals 389 DMG, the boss is dead...VICTORY!
