Yes, so I finally finished this game! It's taken 3 restarts and a solid play though of all the origins for me to finally settle on one character to take to the limit, but I did it. And about a week later I beat Awakenings too! I worked on and off on this for about a month, and now can knock out a few more memes and character sketches!
I really liked this game, it's the first RPG I've beaten since Evolution, aka it held my interest, take note FF games!
