Hyper Posted February 26, 2003 Posted February 26, 2003 Revisiting all the Trials,[spoiler] in my attempt to get those secret treasures for Anima[/spoiler], I wodered what everyone else thought of them. Annoying, fun, difficult, easy, totally weird, etc. Which Cloister of Trials did you enjoy the most? (If you enjoyed one) Which one did you least enjoy?
DeathKnight Posted February 26, 2003 Posted February 26, 2003 [color=crimson]I enjoyed all of them, but that one with the moving platforms [final one I think] was a total chore instead of a fun puzzle. Otherwise it was a smart type of puzzle I like, maybe a bit too easy at times.[/color]
GinnyLyn Posted February 26, 2003 Posted February 26, 2003 DeathKnight took the words right out of my mouth. I actually found all but one of the treasures needed to get Anima on my own. *blows the final Cloister up* Yes, that one was just plain evil.
Bremma Posted February 26, 2003 Posted February 26, 2003 I thought they were good. a good puzzle to get through. I liked the one with all the ice.. can't recal the name off hand though. It was a pain to find the destrucion sphere if I recall.

[/B][/QUOTE] [COLOR=003399]Thats a Macalania, right after you defeat [spoiler]anima[/spoiler]. I loved the trials, they were a unique puzzle to get through, each and everyone of them... i liked the ideas of spheres too. The only i have against them is how long some of them took.... then once you knew it was was easy. The one in Bevelle looked confusing at first, but once you understtod it, it was really simple.

Angelus Posted February 27, 2003 Posted February 27, 2003 The trials, in my opinion, really added to the game. The puzzle solving aspect was not present in the other games and it was interesting to see it in FFX. I really did enjoy it.
Charles Posted February 27, 2003 Posted February 27, 2003 I despised the Cloister of Trials. They were the one, clear, constant reminder that I was playing a video game, in that they removed me from the experience. I would have preferred well-developed dungeons with believable puzzles, as opposed to the silly sphere tasks. The trials sections didn't pose much of a challenge per say, but they became overly tedious. Especially the later ones involving moving platforms.
Hyper Posted February 27, 2003 Author Posted February 27, 2003 Without my little FAQ for the Bevelle trial, [spoiler]I would have missed the Lance Knight and eventually Anima.[/spoiler] I found a few of them confusing, and it would take me awhile to figure out what do next with all the spheres and stuff. *Blows up the trials* BTW, what exactly is a cloister? *Grabs dictionary*
Guest Zeh Posted February 27, 2003 Posted February 27, 2003 [color=003399]Since Bevelle is the only temple you can't visit again, you HAVE to get the treasure chest. Otherwise it can't be completed... Gotta remember in bevelle, right before the cloister of trials, theres one of the last Al Bhed books...[/color]
GinnyLyn Posted February 27, 2003 Posted February 27, 2003 Bevelle....Bevelle...Bevelle...*memory shorts out* I've restarted this game, and the only one I missed is the Besaid one. D'oH! Which one's Bevelle again?
Break Posted February 27, 2003 Posted February 27, 2003 [size=1][color=crimson]Those Cloister of Trials were very very annoying, a near waste of time in my opinion. And can you all use the spoiler tag, not everyone knows how to get Anima. Oh, wait they probably do now because you all told them..[/size][/color]
SephirothNIN Posted March 2, 2003 Posted March 2, 2003 The only one I didn't get on my own was the bozo one on top of that chunk of ice, definately needed help with that one. But for some strange reason I got the chest in the coister w/ all the conveyor belts easy enough. I liked the music that played when you were going through a cloister of trials, but yeah I felt it was kind of tedious, and would've rather fought a big boss of sorts than go through a sphere puzzle. But hey, at least they didn't leave the random battles on during the trials, now THAT would've made it downright miserable.
Hyper Posted March 2, 2003 Author Posted March 2, 2003 [spoiler]It's required to get the chest in Bevelle. Otherwise you can't complete the trial.[/spoiler] Boss Battles might have been nice. You'd prolly have to fight the aeon itself or something.
GinnyLyn Posted March 2, 2003 Posted March 2, 2003 Mmpppfff....[spoiler]*remembers what one of the final battles is*[/spoiler] I am VERY glad they left the random battle part off. It's more realistic that way, too--fiends cannot get into holy places. *now has Cloister background music stuck in her head* [i]Dang it![/i]
Hyper Posted March 4, 2003 Author Posted March 4, 2003 [spoiler]I think I know what you mean Ginny. It's gonna be extra hard with those Magus Sisters. And Anima! How I am going to get my butt kicked! *Remembers they only have about a couple thousand HP (Cindy has 8000)* Oh well.[/spoiler] [size=1][COLOR=003399]Remember, there's a "/" at the end of tags. - [b]Tasis[/b] [/COLOR] [/size]
