Trainer or not I cannot even begin to describe my joy at seeing this on Steam. I am apparently one of those strange people who love FF8.

I thouroghly enjoyed the story line, well except for the last part of it. *NO SPOILERS* That last little bit just kinda came out of left field and confused me a bit.

Kill a thousand men and they will hate you. Kill a million men and they will queue to face you. But kill a single man and they will see monsters and devils in every shadow.

I know what you mean about the last part and I did find something that partially explains it. I heard a rumor that the original concept for the story was altered due to Chrono Cross being released in the same period. If you have not played Chrono Cross I can explain the plot in a pm to avoid spoilers here but from what I understand there were enough similarities that they changed some things as not to appear to be copying from Chrono Cross's story.

I cannot claim that this rumor is true however given certain similarities between the games are still present (not posted here to avoid spoilers), I believe that it is a possibility that this was the case.

Yeah, I forgot all about that game. I used to own it, and beat it a few times. I still consider the opening music for Chrono Cross to be one of the best video game musical scores ever.

I actually have that, and several other Chrono Cross songs, on itunes because I liked them so much.

Well, quick level up and max gil is easy as hell with CoSMOS.. you guys should give it a try while waiting for them to bring out a trainer.

Restoring HP to max is also easy as hell, though ive just found out how to keep it at the value after a battle so using a potion isn't needed.. haven't figured out how to do battle HP yet.

Would you mind explaining how to do the quick level up with CoSMOS? I am afraid that I am little more than a novice in using it.

Its pretty much how it is with everything else..

Search the current Exp value of the person in question, get into a battle and search for the changed value then change it accordingly, to 1 exp for example.

You have to do this every time the person levels though since it changes after every level up even though the current value will still change but it wont reflect the new exp value.

if that makes any sense lol
