And to keep everyone apprised on things they don't care about, I just started Disc 3 on my FFIX re-playthrough. Even with everyone always complaining about how slow battles are, it still doesn't really phase me. I certainly noticed it at first, but then I just got used to it.
Also, f*** racing Hippaul. I got him to level 30, and that's good enough for me. How anyone could have the patience to get him to level 80 is beyond me.
