Final Fantasy IX and Ultima VII

Started and beat Ultima. Space Ace was a terrible idea.

How hard is the first Ultima (not counting Akalabeth) game? Did you use a walkthrough guide?

I did look up some of the mechanics (such as when signs are eligible for their bonus again) but for the most part the game is fairly straightforward. If you just explore all the towns/castles you'll get all the quests you need and from there it's just grinding yourself so you can get down to level 9 and back in a dungeon to complete all the quests and get to character level 8. The one part that wouldn't be obvious is the whole space ace thing. There's a piece of dialog you can miss that says the princess will respond to a space ace, but from there figuring out the nuances of the space segment of the game is non-trivial. The game is at least nice enough to explicitly tell you when you become a space ace, and it's just another grindy part of the game.

For the record, the little I've played of Akalabeth kicked my butt. I managed to survive for a while, but oh did it hurt.

About 72.5h into Dragon Warrior VII - I'm finally on the second disc!

Started playing Xenoblade - I was very unimpressed for the first 3 or 4 hours, but I am really glad I stuck it out - I seem to like it as much as everyone else does, at least.
Also started Jeanne d'Arc on the PSP - I've had a PSP since launch, but have finished (or even played with some amount of seriousness) maybe 5 games on it. It really does have a better library than most people give it credit for, which I'm finally starting to realize.
