12C: A Common Goal

12C: A Common Goal

A Humbaba Battle

Once you have those backtrack to the branch in the path near the save point and take it, after which you will fight a pair of Humbaba.   What follows is a virtual gauntlet of harder to kill mobs as you fight your way to the stairs ahead, up them, and trigger the CS.

In the CS you see a crystal like substance raising from the ground and then you are paid a visit by the Fal'Cie who has been pushing you along your course the entire time.  Mister Doom and Gloom restates his propaganda and you once again protest.  Since we are seeing him, that should mean we are close to the end of the chapter, right?  Right!

Off to the left side of the road is a save point - use that now.

As you run ahead it looks like there is no path in the center - but that is deceiving - the open area ahead with what looks like a long drop is actually a glass floor that you can cross - and on the other side are a pair of golden Treasure Spheres containing a Plush Chocobo (Right) and some Particle Accelerators (Left) - unfortunately you only have time to grab one because as soon as you empty one of the Spheres a walker comes and breaks the floor!

Fight your way forward along the path and open the door ahead at the top of the stairs for a CS and zone, and then we have yet another section of path to fight our way along!  I don't know about you but this is getting old quick.  I mean here they created this great game, with an amazing world, and yet they could not even be bothered to make the process more interesting or at the very least put in some sort of purpose for these fights.  Weak man, this is a very weak story line here.
