It's always seemed like a fun challenge mode and FFV is the one FF I've never played more than a few hours of, so I'm finally going to sit my rear end down and play it and I figured doing this would make it even more interesting (I understand it's a really easy game if you play without self imposed restrictions)

So anybody else do this or have done this? It starts on Sunday

I've started V 3 times and get further each time but I've always played on a phone and I always stop because playing a ATB game on a phone kinda sucks, and it's super ugly. So now I'm gonna buckle up and play the GBA version. The furthest I've got is the Uhhh third crystal I believe but I don't actually know how long V is.

if i do it it'll praobably be an unofficial run, tthey don't allow chaos with repeatng jobs for some reason nd that's my best bet for getting a really weird team comp
