I don't understand why Shadow didn't show up X( I waited for him for like a minute down to the last seconds and I pressed "wait" a couple of times.

-Defeated Phumbaba
- found Gerad hmmmm this is interesting
- Went to the other island and now wandering in the desert trying to figure out how to find Figaro

I watched a playthrough to refresh my memory.
You don't choose to leave, you press wait twice and then wait until an event occurs which will happen within the final 4/3 seconds. Then the game takes over and you leave automatically with Shadow.
What I'm saying is that if at the edge and you've done it correctly you shouldn't have to worry about the Game-over screen since the timer will disappear.
Eitherway you'll want to watch the ending back more than once since PS emus (as far as I know) don't have rewind, so you'll probably see it from a second-source like YT.

The World of Ruin is huge though, and you won't miss any side-quests by not having Shadow in your party except for his dream sequences you get by staying at various inns. Which if you haven't seen them you may as well youtube right now.
Actually according to the wiki there is an extra scene you get that only occurs by letting Shadow die on the floating continent, so you'll still see that.

Okay 22 hours into the game

- At the town (Sorry I have a hard time remembering FFVI towns for some reason) I spotted two "lovers" at the trees I dunno what they're supposed to be doing...
- I found Figaro hahaha, I love that place. Free lodging and nice people around
- Oooh I though Edgar is amnesiac or turned evil, I would have found that very interesting
- Tentacle monster!
- Found Setzer, I think he went with us too easily
- I thought Daryl is a dude since my cousin's boyfriend is names Daryl and why would he bury her in a place like that LOL?
- Seeing a Malboro -> KILL IT WITH FIRE ASAP
- I died fighting the boss and it sucked that I wasn't able to save because I was interrupted and I thought I did
- Put on some reflect rings and defeated the boss
- I like Setzer's story, it's very rare to find a man-woman rivalry that end in mutual respect and no romance
- Saw the birdy and followed it
- Cyan found a new girl!? I hope so

Others:
- ULTROS is alive! I love him <3
- Lost at the auction... I wanted that Hero Ring badly
- Lost at the Coliseum, will come back after some leveling up

Now I got it that I can actually raid Kefka's tower now, but nope I wanna recruit them all again, especially Locke and Terra.

Gerad is Edgar just mixed up. So it was just Edgar being clever :awesome:

Yeah I think that Daryl is a man's name too but it means " Dearly Beloved " so that's why I think that they choose it for the name of Setzer's lover, plus she sort of had a masculine personality which matches her as well. I wish that she became a playable character with Leo, but guess that wasn't meant to be
:sadpanda:

My head canon is that she was born with a more feminine name but then she changed it when she was older. And the reason why Setzer is so taken to Maria the opera singer is because she's completely feminine the opposite of Daryl and him trying to move on from the past.

I love Final Fantasy 6 too much :monster:

24 hours into the game, lost of things

- went to the Veldt cave and found Relm
- Found Gau again in the fields
- Gau's a-hole father broke my heart, the makeover was funny and cute but what happens after is very sad
- I can't understand why Relm in gone in her room, I'm looking for her
- Went to Narshe in the hopes of finding Locke, defeated the Yeti, defeated the Esper and the Ice Dragon. Recruited Mog... I'm lazy to go to the Yeti again but it's kinda cute I want it in my party. Maybe later
- Went back to Terra and finally got her, awww mommy
- I went to the Kefka cult tower and found Strago but as I climb up I realize I'm not prepared so I exited

My goals for now:
- Find Locke
- Find Relm
- Go back to the Yeti
- Defeat the dragons

I have a hard time remembering the town locations in FFVI because they all of them are homogenous in design and most have no specific landmark, and maybe because they sound fantasy-ish unlike "Cosmo Canyon" and "Rocket Town" that sticks. Also, I'm finding Gau less useful than before :(

@Danseru: Just a little hint, but Relm is in Jidoor :monster:

Also this is where Gau starts becoming really useful because he can start using rages like Behemoth King etc once it's encountered, just let him loose on the Veldt for a bit and he'll become pretty useful again, I also highly recommend travelling around the entire Veldt area on foot as a lot of the monsters tend to show up in different locations on the map depending on where you actually are.

Yeah I went to Jidoor and in the mansion a cryptic voice is telling me to go away, I can't still figure out how to get Relm, I'm sure she's the voice.

I'm currently into the cave in the star mountain, I've having fun alternating the two teams, it's very challenging.

But I HATE THE RANDOM BATTLES, ughhhh I mean they're too frequent, it seems that every 10-15 steps you must have one. I hate those bald heads because you can't run away.

for the Cult Tower.
And learn Life 3/Reraise, you will need it. :monster:

Or he could just learn Muddle, or is it Confuse, I forget what they called it in the version he is playing. It is one or the other.
Muddle is a less formidable strategy.
It is more effective to let all spells, incoming and outgoing, bounce off of yourself. If you want to use a Cure (you will need to, as you will lose hp even with this strategy since some of their spells are Reflect-proof), bounce it off an enemy with reflect status.

And Life 3 is necessary for the boss atop the tower, because his death-triggered counter attack, Ultima, cannot be reflected and will indubitably kill you unless you have Reraise status on a character (you can cast that right on yourself as it is immune to reflect).

Ah yess I forgot to update for so long here's what I've done in my flight and in Singapore

- Yes I found Locke and his reunion with Celes isn't what I expected, I was actually a bit disappointed
- Found Relm in the horror house
- Found Cyan in the dream world
- Got another Genji Glove :>
- Defeated the red dragon
- Tried to finish the cult tower and defeated the dragon... then I died
- Entered Ebot's rock and defeated the monster
- Got eaten by a worm and entered an underground cavern, recruited Gogo
- Entered Kefka's tower and exited it, at least I got some new Gear

I'll try to do the Cult tower again, my party for that is definitely Relm, Terra and Celes and thinking about another one. I usually use X-Zone if the enemy has reflect.

Again about Gau, I don't understand why he doesn't learn new skills you mentioned...

I don't know if you have mentioned this at all, but do you wait for the enemy to do the skill first? Bc he can't learn it if he hasn't 'seen' it first.

No, he doesn't have to see an enemy skill to add it to his Rage list. All he needs to do is Leap in the Veldt and he gains the Rages of the enemies that he Leaped on and the ones that you defeated before he rejoins.
