There I am running around a never-ending desert trying to find a way forward or an exit. Random battle, fair enough this is a Final Fantasy game after all (VII). Giant sand-worm rears up. Oh s**t comes to mind. It looks a similar size to the serpents near Chocobo Ranch, the huge ones that can bite you in half.
Limit-break, limit-break, summon Shiva, Bolt2 ... and it's dead??
Aww it's a itty-bitty cactuar. Let's be nice and kill it. Attack! ... miss. er... Attack! ... miss. Raise eyebrow in trademark James Bond (TM) fashion. Limit-break ... 0. I hit it for no damage? Open up GameFaqs FFVII faqs, find cactuar. Almost completely impossible to hit unless [Stop]ped or [Manip.]ulated. Watch in fury as cactuar very slowly legs it off screen.
As Jack Sparrow would say; "Bugger."
After much wandering and random battles, a cart being pulled by a Chocobo pulls up. Do I want a ride? Yes.
On the plus side I am leveling my characters quite nicely, although it is getting somewhat annoying being unable to navigate through a desert and progress the game. I'm not quite so scared of the big snakes any more, they just look real nasty. Ah well, I'll just have to amuse myself by seeing how many Choco/Mog summons turn out to be Fat Chocobo instead.
till next time,
Alex.

For those in the dark, I'm fighting in the desert in Gold Saucer Prison. Not exactly the nicest place; thieves steal your items and leave battle with annoying regularity. I was expecting something a bit tougher. Nothing too vicious otherwise you'd get killed too easily wandering around the desert. Meander around a little more ... random battle!
