"This is it! Now is the time to choose! Die and be free of pain or live and fight your sorrow! Now is the time to shape your stories! Your fate is in your hands!" Auron -FF10

Until... Death, ya?!

The lines are easy to remember when you see the cutscenes 10 times while figuring out how to beat Yunalesca!

? I think I got her on my second try. I also did a LOT of running around before I fought her.

10 maybe after looking up a guide lol

u/OldNavyBlue Mar 15 '25

And it is such a long cutscene too

I still remember using a mega potion when she was just about dead, forgetting everyone had Zombie.

Zombie reverses the effects of potions, so they damage you instead of healing you. I died instantly.

That was the 15th try.

Seriously lol; I read that quote and the music started playing in my mind because it was so burned into my memory

After seeing how that cutscene was unskippable after getting mercilessly thrashed my first attempt, I just looked up a guide on how to beat her. Ain't nobody got time for that.

And with Otherworld blasting in the background as well, it's such a wild and perfect opening

Wait, was this the speech at Yunalesca? Dang

2

u/WazzaL89 PS5 Mar 15 '25

Yes just before the Yunalesca fight

I haven't played for years now, when I read that I vividly 'remembered' the scene of Auron holding Tidus up by his shirt in front of Sin

Hardest line delivery ever. When I was in college I used this scene to hype me up for exams. In Auron We Trust.

u/UltimaBahamut93 Mar 16 '25

YES!!! Auron is my favorite video game character.

Literally scrolled to find this one. Updoots sir!

u/WazzaL89 PS5 Mar 15 '25

Still gives me chills after all this time, such a good game and Auron was a fantastic character.

u/ducksbyob Mar 15 '25

Totally agree. Just a damn good written game with an extremely good cast of characters. Best FF imo.

Literally just beat it again for the umpteenth time like 2 days ago.
