I think at that point I'd call it and mark that one as "finished it".

I don't think I will ever play a JRPG again. In fact it was the last one.

These days I want my games to be actual games.

Look, complaining about unskippable cutscenes is one thing. Everyone has that complaint about FFX, I even know what boss you're talking about because it's so infamous. But saying that JRPGs aren't "actual games" is ridiculous. They are games, whether or not you personally enjoy them.

		I am not saying they aren't games. What I am saying is that I enjoy stuff now that has basically no plot and let's me get on with the game. Half of Final Fantasy X (and I think a little later they released a movie both for Final Fantasy VII and the standalone movie the Spirit Within) was Square showing off how good their CGI animation was, which at the time was very good. CGI cut scenes went from "this is a cool thing I see between levels" on the PS1 to "this is a tedious interruption".
