....Just useless items.

[GrayCloud FOX!]

Hello, it's been a while since I play FFVII, I guess since I was a child. It's one of my favorites games of all times, and well, even after I beat it several times and got everything on the game, there are still some stuff I just hate.

For example, the "useless items", that you get but actually you can't use them anywhere. In my personal opinion, this is because FFVII wasn't even finished and many bugs and stuff that they didn't used remained.

Useless Items:
- 1/35 Soldier: I got 99 of them (for real, not using cheats) and for what? Ha! They are useless. No, you will not get a Sephiroth's clone, of Zack's clone, or even a Shinra Soldier's clone. The only thing is that if you purchase the vacation home in Costa Del Sol, the soldiers will be up on display there.

- Super Sweeper: A machine to protect reactor? Nope, it's useless too, it doesn't work in Fort Condor (Some people said it lets you win every battle there, but form me it doesn't work). So, there's no other use for this. (Or I haven't found it)

- Masamune Blade: The perfect copy of the Sephiroth's sword. For what? You just can't use it, equip it, or anything. And well, since you CAN'T GET Sephiroth in the game (unless you use cheats), this becomes the perfect "useless item".

- Tissue: Need to explain this? it's probably the most useless item ever, hahaha! Just lose at Gold Saucer Battle.

- Combat Diary / Autograph / Gambler: So....Was Dio so important in the game that they actually made a complete set of useless items for him?


Do you know another useless item? :) (Sorry for my english, it's not very good hahaha!)

Also, there's a chest in Kalm that you can't open: "Locked. You can't open it...". This could be a "useless chests". (Think there are others in the game")

If you think about it, most of the magic materia and there item counter parts are useless. Not to mention Cait Sith as a party member with his two silly limits.
The battle system is horribly unbalanced and they simply hadn't the time anymore to refine it. As well as to implement some more sidequests and locations.

As for the 1/35 Soldier (or Toy Soldiers), I think there where meant for one of Cait Sith limits. The more you have the stronger would have been the limit of him.

You got a point, Cait Sith is a useless character...man, FFVII is full of useless things...hahahaha!

Not to mention the "Dumped Items" (Letter to a Wife / Letter to a Daughter / etc).

Woah woah woah, hold the phone, Cait Sith is overpowered for speedrunners. Don't you dare go calling him useless! Maybe on a standard playthrough he isn't the most ideal character, but his base stats are unusually high when you first encounter him if you're going for a speedy playthrough, and his limit break is instant death for all standard enemies.

hahahahaha! "Hold the phone", I saw that hahahaha! You said it my friend, for a "speedy playthrough". Also, his limit break is like Selphie in FFVIII, luck stuff... (even Selphie's The End is more powerful)
