-Thread moved to FF Fun-

Also, I tried to complete this game as fast as possible, and ended up with 45 hours at the end of disk 3, but I had to train and got lost a lot so I'll estimate about...35 hours.

lol It'll take a while. It took me 2 days to beat disk 1 I think... Remember there's a lot of dialogue. Although I did have distractions. :/
I think it'd be safe to say that 1 night is nowhere near long enough though.

Hahaha you can complete disc one in about 10 hours - probably a little less, but I too get distracted although that's probably about right

Could't give an estimate on the rest of the disks Im afraid, that's totally when I start going off doing my own thing

I'd say if you were like a robot or something, you could do it within 2 days if you played it none stop, watch out for Ultimecias bastard castle if you haven't played it before though, I STILL need the guide for that part and I have completed the stupid game more times than you can shake a stick at.

You should see the state of my guide, it looks like it's been sleeping rough

I've never attempted anything like that but I'm sure it'll take longer than one night. Keep your levels really low and it could probably be done in a few but not one night.

Like Moonie said, just stay at level 7. But doing that you're going to have to draw a lot of mgic which will take along time.
Disc 2 is reasonably short, so should only take about five hours.
Disc three will take longer, perhaps 10-15 hours of the story and you'll want to draw all the magic you can from the Islands closest to heaven and hell, so that's another two hours.

Like Bambi said, ultimecia's castle is difficult, just beat the bosses that you need to, so you can cast magic, heal and limit break and ten go fight Ultimecia.
So it shouldn't take too much longer.
