    Wow, this is really interesting! When I first saw the title, I thought I'd like to see if it was possible but that it wouldn't be a very interesting run, since you're leaving everything up to the automode. But no: there really are so many decisions that can be made regarding the weapons, and that brings to the forefront all sorts of things that don't really get to shine in ordinary runs, such as the weapon drops! That's what I really love about this game: there is just so much in it and so many ways to play that you'd never normally need, that even all these years later I can still find totally new ways of playing the game! :D

    1:00:44 I did that! You get halfway; once Airship unlocked everything slaughters you; BTW I had actually unlocked everyone's board on all their grids, legit, before reaching my Endgame stretch; I was preparing to fight the Side-Boss at the end of the temple with mobs stronger than Sin's Mobs; BTW you can progress to your point where you 1-shot before moving on; it's way easier than you might think; Bombs had that Fire equipment you wanted earlier.

      I have 100%'d FFX more times that I can remember, first time I used way to much magic, next time I used way to much items... Now I spam Attack and Quickhit, make sure items are have auto-haste. The only reason to not use attacks-only is because you are "under leveled" (you haven't gone in to Aurons tree with Tidus, Wakka and Rikku).
      If you need more "damage" output, give Rikku a weapon with Stonetouch and Deathtouch .

The save sphere after Sinspawn Ammes is a lifesaver since demi can't kill you, but it can reduce your HP so you get killed in the next battle if you don't heal. I have a feeling I missed it during my first playthrough, so its nice to know it's there.

    How did you not get stuck during the wedding using the cutscene remover? I know it's designed for speedruns and not normal playthroughs but that tool has gotten my saves soft locked every single time I've used it during the cutscene for the yuna wedding. They all just stand there and nothing happens and the auto save happens right there. This was like 6 months ago, so maybe it's been fixed.

    I've done one run live focusing on attacking only, but still allowed enemy selection (and character swap only if the game forces a group that wasn't the one I set while in the menu). Sinswpawn Gui was a massive pain but with a stronger Auron, I was able to do the 2nd phase without killing the head. It will be interesting to see what strategy those additionnal restrictions require late in the game. Cheers ! :D

    Is there a threshold for when the Autobattle turns back on for the Sin's Fin fight? It seems like most people think it's impossible to use entirely during that fight, which stinks because it's the best/easiest early game farm for sphere levels and Gil. I've set up an autoclicker before, which kind of worked, but it only worked at normal speed and had some delay issues, so it wasn't worth it at all from a time/reward scenario. But I can clearly see it in action from 23:26 onwards. So is there a certain amount of damage you need to do to the Fin, or a number of attacks? I assume it's disabled at the beginning because of the "tutorial" for attacking distant foes, but once you get the hang of it it should work again, right?

      yeah I'm sad he didn't explain his reasoning on why he used the standard sphere-grid. I guess it's either because there are more stats in the standard one, or he doesn't like how the expert sg looks and feels (to me it's the other way around, I can't bear the dark-blue standard one haha). Yuna, Lulu, Rikku and Kimahri could deal decent damage by going through the guys' paths right off the bat, it would have helped a lot when they're set as initial battle members or when you're underwater and have to use Rikku.

    After thinking about this one a bit more, gonna try and make some predictions. 1. Seymour/Anima will be the first big grinding point. 2. Evrae will be an epic battle for the ages; can only think of a couple ways around Stone Gaze, so looking forward to seeing your fight vs it. 3. The challenge will be vastly transformed depending on whether you grind out Auto-Phoenix on the Highbridge or not. 4. Spectral Keeper will be the hardest boss, but he will end up beatable. 5. Sin's Arms will be the most boring boss. 6. The challenge will be completed. Good luck with the run!
