SquareEnix, you're quite, quite evil!

Bloody FF12. I obviously have to finish all the sidequests, and do everything there is to do. A good 2 hours wandering through mines, killing the most evil creatures in the game, find the final Esper I'm missing, fight it, almost kill it, and then die. How annoying is that?

That's after wandering through the big crystal for ages to find the previous almost final Esper. No map, and every single location looks exactly the same. And there's hours of running backwards and forwards to open gates (with the switch for the gate being almost too far to get back before a totally random timer runs out). Still, at least there was a save point just before fighting her. And then a long walk to get out of the place again. And it keeps me off the streets.

And the "free" stuff count keeps going up. £10.99 worth of DVD (with Nectar points from surveys), and £6.49 of book for Phil. £106.97. Half way to beating the 200 quid or so last year. With enough Nectar points left to buy a CD I want, but I'll have to wait 3 weeks to get it half price. And almost a 10 quid voucher for Phil from pigsback. Which explains why he just emailed me an Amazon voucher. Giving me 30 quid there. Not getting far with this "buy a DS" plan. Or I might save up even more and buy a Wii.
