hey! I'm the guy who did this challenge but stopped near the beginning of the game, thanks for the mention! This makes me want to continue my playthrough to be honest :) huge fan!
@@TheInfectiousCadaver I mean its a great way to introduce the combat like tidus would not know so to wove it in naritivly is really cleaver and a nice touch over alot of games that will slap a huge essay on screen about combat xD
Love your chill, no bullshit editing and narration style. I feel like that is hard to find on UA-cam nowadays. Always enjoy your challenge runs especially, and I hope you keep them coming. Cheers for the entertainment!
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.
Hey there! This is the first video of yours I've seen. I heard your name mentioned by another FF UA-camr I used to watch quite frequently but didn't think anything of it at the time. Happy to be here!
I definitely enjoy this style of video. Gives a deeper view of the challenge than most of the more "highlighty" videos that are often used, but still cuts out a lot of the parts that are more fun to play than to watch.
As a kid I would just use attack and get really annoyed having to use the other 99.9% of the mechanics. Can’t believe I spent the majority of these game pushing one button. Now I use “haste” so I’m slowly exploring the game. I should start using items by the time I retire
I didn't know what leveling up was, thought I was just shit at the game but turns out I was doing a no grid challenge without realising, no hi potions either. Got pretty far too lol.
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 .
Great idea for a challenge! My thoughts went to Biran and Yenke, as you'll struggle to grind that one out, and Yunalesca would need some serious armours...with those restrictions. Looked tricky getting to Kilika never mind Gagazet, or even Zanarkand 🙂
The hardest challenge in this is gonna be bosses that counter physical attacks. Especially ones like spheremorph that are supposed to be dealt with magically.
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
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
its nice to have you back man i mean obv you do other content and youv got to but ffx is what i came to you for and always will and watch all your lets play on all ff games but ur ffx lets play are some of the best on youtube by far
I’m currently doing a podcast around beating as many of the Final Fantasy games using attack only! I’m really looking forward to X. This video has given me hope!
Thanks for all your great ffx challenge run videos, i was able to beat seymour natus on nsg because of your video! I hope Berk sees your comment, youre a ffx legend!
Hey Garland, working on an AI mod to be used with my custom sphere grid + sin unleashed for FFX. Should be an interesting playthrough if you'd care to mess around with it when it comes out.
I actually watched part 2 first. But I enjoyed it so much I had to see how you handled the sin spawn at the beginning. Also I figured you would use trigger commands for the first water boss. I never thought to just defend when it goes behind the pillar.
Its so refreshing to have Kimarhi get some love, I always want to use him more but he always ends up getting shelved, removed from party and falls behind rather quickly.
JUST Saying I don't know how useful this is but ALL the rng in battles can be calculated just after the title screen , making getting specific items super easy , definitely worth looking into , its used a lot almost essential in speedrunning
Super hyped for any ffx video but this is amazing! Just surprised the Kimahri fight in Besaid didn’t make the cut. I’ve always considered it a boss battle. I’m sure it was straightforward but I’ve died there being too confident 😅
I had a go at doing this challenge for the very start of the game. 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.
Dansg, the thing about 2-4 hour long videos is that if we are busy, we can always study/work while listening to it. So, that's something to keep in mind if it's something you prefer to do. Cheers
I did my first CSR speedrun last night and boosters allows auto battle so i had the thought "how far could inget with using only auto battle" and you have a new series for me to binge lol. I thought it was original but excited to bind watch these before trying myself
For some reason I'm endlessly entertained by FF challenges. Some of the games, like 7, are beatable with an insane amount of restrictions. Very interested to see if pure auto-attack is possible with this one!
Nice to see new or unpopular challenges coming up.. After completing NSNONI my sorry arse is still scared to do NSG so I've been aiming to do a Boss rush type of run in the HD remaster version
Thanks Dansg08, love the videos. The FFX heralds know when I have started to forget about the game and send you here to renew my love for Blitzball and Auron. Now I need to start playthrough though!
I love that after so many years you still find new ways to play and enjoy your favourite game. Can't wait to see how you deal with some of the obstacles that this will bring. Glhf
sup, befor i start watching just wanna say thx for the idea, seen the vid recomended a few times in the past and decided to actually get started on this yesterday too (made it to Operation Mihen so far), havin some good luck with elemental and status weapon drops so far actually made things quite managable till now too, will be grinding while watching xD
I assume this is the logical progression of one guy doing a no sphere grid challenge and then a bunch of gamefaqs users saying it's impossible with additional restrictions.
I mean maybe it's just me but one of my favorite things is long videos. If you ever made a channel for your full footage I would be the first one there! UA-cam remembers where I left off so lay it on me! This is one of my top favorite games ever and has been since I was a kid so I would LOVE your full footage :D
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'm loving this series and looking forward to "Season 2". I started upntuis challenge myself today with a couple thoughts on how I may want to try things differently.
So, real world moment... I always thought, "Where is the ATB battle against the rest of the passengers on the Liki after 'Team Yuna' essentially attaches Sin to the boat with a harpoon gun and gets them tossed around the ocean like a tetherball gone wrong?"
Thank you so much for the first part of this I really enjoyed it things got really hairy there with the sinspawn fight attack only video I can't wait to see what part 2 will be like with Seymour and upward like you said things are only going to get harder this is a very interesting way to play Final Fantasy 10 thanks for doing the video keep up the great work Dansg08 👍
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!
Ooh I am so down for FFX challenges. (Imo the biggest challenge in Elden Ring was finding the desire to finish the thing lol) I'm glad you liked it, and that we both love FFX! Do you wish for X-3 someday?
I don't have to watch the video to know that the answer is a 99.5% Yes, except for all fights where the game forces you to do other stuff (such as Switching in Lulu for magic or Auron for the armored units in the Blitzball arena). I have beaten the game many times using only attack and/or quickhit, and when I replay the game I often have Auto-battle on up until Seymour Flux, because up until that point everything should die from you just hitting things with Tidus, Wakka and Rikku.
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.
The one thing that really makes doing challenge runs in this game a pain, is the unskippable cutscenes. I die to a really difficult boss, and I have to rewatch the cutscene again. Every. Single. Time. I call it the Dark Riku effect. If you've played Kingdom Hearts 1 you'd understand what I mean.
This is probably why Berk pointed out the cutscene skip mod, which I think he says makes this challenge a lot more doable... Back in the day I got stuck on Seymour flux, and went through the preceeding cutscene soooo many times! 😂😳
25:06 From the construction of the name, it appears to be French in origin. So it would most likely be pronounced "ehgh-oo-EE." I could probably look up the Japanese phonetics for it, but it's 9 pm on Christmas Eve and my soup is getting cold.
Can’t find the link to the way to skip cutscenes. Mind posting it somewhere or directing me to where you have it posted? Huge fan by the way! FFX is my favorite game so I have loved all of your FFX content. Love this series! Can’t wait to watch all the episodes.
I think in terms of challenge, simply being basic attack only is more than enough. Limiting yourself to what the game defaults your targeting to is just sadistic levels of self-torture. If that's going to be included as a rule, I think the best way to consider it would be this; instead of bending/breaking the rules if you need to be able to manually target enemies to avoid excessive grinding, consider them to be finding out how many battles *require* you to play them manually.
I made a channel a while ago just for challenge runs. I started recording this exact same run but definitely got burnt out from grinding. I'd worry about Seymour 1 (Anima using Pain is trouble) or running into black flans on Gagazet/Zanarkand. Maybe I need to visit this all again.
FFX + Dansg08 is always a good idea
Dansg08 would do well with Darkkefka. Just saying...
hey! I'm the guy who did this challenge but stopped near the beginning of the game, thanks for the mention! This makes me want to continue my playthrough to be honest :) huge fan!
The water flan is an interesting find. Pretty much makes the game teach you that "no you will not use physical attacks, switch to Lulu"
i remember it because i've tried to go against the tutorial script and the game really doesn't like that
@@Pandamaniaaa They just berate you till its dead its very funny
i always hated it. especially if youve played the game over 20 times.
yeah i get it just let me attack. fuck lol.
@@TheInfectiousCadaver I mean its a great way to introduce the combat like tidus would not know so to wove it in naritivly is really cleaver and a nice touch over alot of games that will slap a huge essay on screen about combat xD
@@TheInfectiousCadaver I mean they only say it a ton in the beginning. So it's not a big deal.
Just going to mention that the cutscene remover is actually developed by a bunch of people from the FFX speedrunning community
Love your chill, no bullshit editing and narration style. I feel like that is hard to find on UA-cam nowadays. Always enjoy your challenge runs especially, and I hope you keep them coming. Cheers for the entertainment!
For Braska's final aeon, it puts Auron in your party. You've been warned!
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.

Oh god, it’s gonna be interesting watching yuna solo some fights with Rod slapping
Hey man, solo rod slapping is how I survived high school
Great idea for a challenge! My thoughts went to Biran and Yenke, as you'll struggle to grind that one out, and Yunalesca would need some serious armours...with those restrictions.
Looked tricky getting to Kilika never mind Gagazet, or even Zanarkand 🙂
The hardest challenge in this is gonna be bosses that counter physical attacks. Especially ones like spheremorph that are supposed to be dealt with magically.
Another challenge you should do is like class swap, ie Lulu attacker, Auron Caster, Tidus healer or something of the sort and use the expert grid!!
Always love the FFX content on your channel. You were the one who really got me to play FFX and thanks to that, it is in my top 3 favorite FF games.
Is the same for me it goes 4 6 10 with 4 being my favourite.

I didn't know Kimahri's piercing did so much to the Kilika sinspawn!
I thought he just got a % reduction from damage, not the armoured effect

There is no the Protec

No sphere grid is possible thanks to several available options besides Attack, so Attack only mode is the real challenge

The best way to get op early is blitzball, to get spheres to fill empty nodes early on, and get key spheres early...
Out of all these years that was the first time I've seen the chocobo eater fall off the cliff
In FF8 such an auto battle feature actually is nice, due to farming
I don't have to watch the video to know that the answer is a 99.5% Yes, except for all fights where the game forces you to do other stuff (such as Switching in Lulu for magic or Auron for the armored units in the Blitzball arena).

Was literally going to restart this game today.
I see absolutely no strategy here except for "how much time do I want to spend"
kudos. Whether you had to tweak the rules slightly, it's still incredibly impressive.
Just starting the 1st battle, can’t wait to see Spherimorph!
Great vid. I think I've seen a few now but the algorithm just did you a favour.
Subscribed.
This is a beautiful format
great idea. i miss the old days of waiting on your ffx playthrough to release.
Before watching the video, I’m guessing you’ll definitely need to give yuna a teleport sphere to tidus’ path for the via purifico in bevelle
this is a really interesting challenge! looking forward to seeing the rest. thank you
Has magic only been fully explored? I would love to see that in the future.
yeah its terrible
Couldn't you have used the expert sphere grid for this so that every character can go down a tanky path?
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.
Nice idea, always wanted to see a run using only khamari lulu and rikku but with rikku no spamming limits or more than one use command per battle
The one thing that really makes doing challenge runs in this game a pain, is the unskippable cutscenes.
I die to a really difficult boss, and I have to rewatch the cutscene again. Every. Single. Time.
I call it the Dark Riku effect.
If you've played Kingdom Hearts 1 you'd understand what I mean.
This is probably why Berk pointed out the cutscene skip mod, which I think he says makes this challenge a lot more doable...
Back in the day I got stuck on Seymour flux, and went through the preceeding cutscene soooo many times! 😂😳
This was a really enertainment video! Thanks for sharing!
best thing to do is refight the two fixed garuda battles on besaid so that tidus/wakka can have darktouch weapons.
25:06 From the construction of the name, it appears to be French in origin. So it would most likely be pronounced "ehgh-oo-EE."
I could probably look up the Japanese phonetics for it, but it's 9 pm on Christmas Eve and my soup is getting cold.
@@gregoryford2532 Ah, thanks. So I was one syllable and about half a phoneme off. Hey, not too bad.
YES MORE FFX IN 2022!
I can see Auron with a big smirk on his face for this one.

Can’t find the link to the way to skip cutscenes. Mind posting it somewhere or directing me to where you have it posted? Huge fan by the way! FFX is my favorite game so I have loved all of your FFX content. Love this series! Can’t wait to watch all the episodes.
