I love the mental image of a windswept White Mage in a tattered white cloak, three bags of bones slung over her shoulder. She confronts Chaos, only to draw back the cloak to reveal a staff in one hand, the other hand covered in a Power Fist sized electro-gauntlet. Her belt covered in magic weapons, an entire pharmacy's worth of potions, and the world's greatest katana.
After the adventure she puts the literal bag of bones on the ground and cast rise on the 3 fallen party members. - Done, i defeated chaos, go home. I would even guess that she would share the gill earned in the adventure for their troubles.
I love your explanation of the stats so much. "Wisdom was not programmed." "Glitch would imply the devs somehow made a mistake while attempt to make the wisdom mechanic work. They did not attempt to make the wisdom mechanic work." Thank you for that.
Note that criticals do not ignore evasion; it’s just that anything that can hit you with max evasion will be a crit, as the roll for an automatic hit also gets you an automatic crit. This distinction only really matters for the enemy if they have a higher than usual critical rate, which few do, but it does mean that forgoing hit rate for crit rate isn’t obviously correct. The actual chance to hit doesn’t vary much, but you get an extra hit every 32, so you’d want to consider that. Also note that anything in the game had a 1/201 chance of hitting a target even if they fully resist it; this makes the Bane sword (the one used to kill Tiamat) useful against Chaos, because killing his with the Masamune is unlikely if he sticks Slo2 to you, which he will do 75% of the time he casts it (it’s non-elemental, so only magic defense can resist it and magical classes have bad magic defense). If that happens and you can’t reverse it (and any character that doesn’t know Fast can’t), going for the 1/201 over and over is usually the better strategy except for maybe the Fighter. The Black Belt also doesn’t care because he will have killed Chaos before he casts it.
I was slightly wrong about the odds; as it turns out, the game uses a table of numbers from 0-255 that it converts to 0-200, and it turns out that 3 of them convert to 0 (because there's two 1's in the table for some reason), which is the value that produces automatic hits. This means the actual odds are 3/256 instead of 1/201, which is about 2.3 times higher, which is very good for the desperate Bane plays against Chaos in solo runs and is largely irrelevant to anything else that's not a TAS I think. I learned this from the notes on a TAS by TheAxeMan; if you search "FF1 TAS" it'll almost certainly be the first thing that pops up. It's a good watch, the subtitles have lots of fun little notes to explain what's going on. I also learned from it that elemental weapon bonuses apparently actually do work, contrary to everything I'd ever heard, but the bonuses based on monster type still don't work. The bonus is your attack essentially being 4 higher than it usually is, so it's not like it really makes much of a difference anyways. For reference, the first weapon that this applies to, the Flame Sword, goes from 26 attack to 30, and the practical result is doing 4-8 more damage per hit, with that amount doubled for crits. Funnily enough, Final Fantasy II quintupled this bonus to +20. Final Fantasy III finally moved to just multiplying the damage by 2, which I think is more or less what every other game does (with the number adjusted up or down sometimes).

I like to imagine the other three party members' ghosts following the White Mage with increasing exasperation as they beg her to just revive them and let them help or at _least_ let them move on with their lives
"Bro, PLEASE, I just want to go home to my family." "Sorry bud, you're locked in my party until CHAOS is dead and I don't want you to accidentally help me, so..." 🪄
I know they're suppose to be dead, but their sprites make it look like they were walking with the white mage, but they all simultaneously tripped face first into the mud when the enemies arrived.
I love that through this whole video I'm just thinking "yeah, FF1 solo White Mage challenge, a very difficult challenge; even if it's not the MOST difficult it is definitely one of the top most difficult FF1 challenges, this is very impressive", and then Gamechamp casually drops "btw remember I'm playing with my feet cause my hands are all fuckled" and I feel like I just got slapped upside the head and was left for dead

I wouldn’t be surprised if the impetus for this video was just so Gamechamp could use “A” as a number to make people angry and still be technically correct about it the entire time
I love how the title implies that the challenge isn't ONLY having a white mage and NOTHING ELSE, but that having one in your party AT ALL is enough of a challenge
that title would go to the thief. they're so terrible in the NES version that many people genuinely consider that to be the case. they have absolutely zero spells, their main stats are agility and luck (both pretty awful stats), they have terrible armor and low magic resistance, and endurance is their dump stat making them the squishiest of the fighters with practically nothing to bolster it. the only way they can viably fight is killing the enemy before the enemy can kill them, but don't have the strength to even do that. literally the only thing they have going for them is they can equip almost any weapon, but good luck surviving long enough to get a decent one.
For anyone who wants to try this challenge on more recent versions of FF1, you’ll likely be playing on a version where the Peninsula of Power bug was fixed, making the mid-game grind a bit trickier. If you can beat Astos, you’ll eventually unlock the Mystic Key, which will allow you to open up a treasure room in his castle to the left of the throne room. Bring some healing items and park yourself wherever you can save closest to this room. Each of the tiles adjacent to the chests in that room will throw you into a battle with a horde of undead enemies - on the version I played, the second-tier Dia spell will kill them all instantly, bestowing you with a good sum of EXP and an even gooder sum of cold, hard cash. Because these tiles are forced encounters, you can run back and forth on these tiles over and over again to trigger the same encounter repeatedly, allowing you to farm these enemies for experience and money for as long as you feel like it! (Source: Did a White Mage run myself on the now-discontinued mobile version of FF1. Needless to say, I was psyched to see this video in my feed!)
This is my preferred mid-game grind strategy. You can also use the guaranteed enemies in the treasure room in the Earth Cave, though obviously those are less safe.
@@Xeronoia Yes, Wisdom (or INT in later localizations) are applied at least as far back as the GBA remakes, and I believe the PS1 versions do as well. Red Mage becomes noticeably less useful as a caster as a result.
17:20 This section makes me want to see a comic series following the White Mage solo. I picture it being a combination of serious scenarios and goofy-ass shenanigans. Like the beginning where they're trekking back to the first town and performing some Weekend at Bernie's shenanigans atop the hill after surviving a horror-filled prologue that kills-off the other three (One of them dies in an anticlimactic way by just being an idiot, tripping and breaking their neck or something). Get to Astos and he seems fine, talking in English, then when you give him the crown he starts talking in Japanese and turns evil, confusing the f*** out of the White Mage. Just continue this tone throughout the entire story. After the final battle, someone mentions that the White Mage could have just revived their teammates at a church, COMPLETELY throwing them for a loop with a little box reminding us that their "Wisdom" stat is nonexistent in comparison to their other stats (Make this a recurring joke), and leading to the epilogue which shows off everyone's stat-growth from the beginning of the story to the end, everyone having no growth except for the White Mage who reached max level and max stats with nearly no Wisdom.
@@BoltTheEmolgaff2’s level up system is different from from ff games. Each stat that can be improved requires specific actions, and all 3 party members alongside other members have many different things to level up. Projared explains it pretty well in his review for final fantasy 2.
It’s funny seeing you mention how strange the magic system is, considering I guessed it immediately when you said that. It’s the same one as Dungeons and Dragons, since these games were based off of it.
To be fair, Dungeons and Dragons has a strange magic system, shared only with the least creative D&D clones and one fantasy author whose magic system wasn't stolen by anyone else, because Vancian magic is just awkward.
The stupid part about it is that the Wisdom stat was broken, not broken as to being abused is a great strategy, but as broken as to it not working…oh I guess they already knew about that….
@@timothymclean Wizardry is not what I would call a "least creative D&D clone", personally. I will agree with you that Vancian magic is awkward, though.
@@timothymclean In case you didn't know, Jack Vance (the author you referenced) is the creator of the Vancian magic system and is named after him. Gygax used the system in D&D, and D&D is why/how it became a trope, but did not create the system of magic. You didn't claim that D&D made the system but I wanted to clarify just in case others who read this don't know this history. Personally, I enjoy the system but understand it is confusing and doesn't fit the current pop culture of magic. Heck, it confused the hell out of me when I was a kid enough to dissuade me from even trying D&D until much later; it's only with my now 2+ decades of experience in TTRPGs that I appreciate how it reins in magic and rewards forethought despite it's immense learning curve.

That beginning really hit hard for me since I still have chronic wrist pain for about a year now. And I have that exact same arcade stick, but I haven't tried playing with my feet for fear of the pain showing up there too. It really is awful
I don't know if you guys have arthiritis or carpal tunnel but I developed really brutal carpal tunnel from playing WoW 10 hours a day. Its technically a wrist thing but still caused a lot of pain in my fingers and hand joints. A wrist brace (the kind with the metal splint) and changing my chair and keyboard setup to something more ergonomic helped a lot. I basically don't have it anymore.
I'm not sure you could do a run that I WOULDN'T enjoy. Your voice, humor, and how you explain and talk about stuff is just memorizing! Pure entertainment (edutainment?) gold! My thoughts go out to your hands, glad to hear they're on the "up swing" of healing!

I think it makes for great listening material! (Obviously, since she wasn’t out yet, she does misgender herself in the script for that one, in case that causes any confusion.)
Ayy, you're back! We're all happy to see you. As someone who permanently damaged my dominant wrist, I know exactly how difficult it is to deal with chronic hand pain, so I'm very glad you're prioritizing your body over your channel!
This INT (Wisdom) stat no being programmed is 100% true and absolutely hilarious. I'm part of the Final Fantasy Randomizer community and the rando fixes ever "bug" the game has. Anything with evidence that it was intended to go somewhere and wasn't done right. INT, though, just goes nowhere. No process, no indication. So we don't fix it because there's nothing to fix. Best guess: since Final Fantasy 1 is based in D&D (to a very copyright-violating degree), they put in INT and gave it stat growth so they could use it eventually... and then never came up with any reason to use it, and at that point it was a bigger pain to remove it than to leave it and just ignore it. Notes on the run: 1) Heal is a party-wide healing spell so less need to have it than cure spells in the game for a solo party member. 2) If you're grinding and enemies start running away, put one of your level 1 corpses into the front slot. The game only reads the first character when calculating things like morale (whether they run) and ambush. Yes, stronger packs will be more likely ambush you, but they won't run. 3) "Less likely to incur paralysis, stone, and death" but, because of the way the game is programmed, not impossible. There's always a 3/256 crit chance for any spell and, even with a ribbon, those effects (and others) will still get through.
@@Gotmilk0112 Balance. If you go with any of the fixes that were put in later games (which were done by other programmers than the original team) then it does drastically change the balance of magic in the NES game.
OH MY GOD YES, NEW GAMECHAMP VIDEO! Your challenge runs are honestly some of my favorite content in RUclips and I had been seriously missing your uploads. Super excited to watch this one while I eat today, just by the premise I know it's gonna be a good one. Edit: just started watching the video and now I feel kinda of bad lol. Didn't know about your chronic hand pain, but I hope you get better soon Miss Champ! And take your time to recover, I can always rewatch your previous bangers in between your new uploads. Your wellbeing comes first. Edit 2: Absolutely kino. Miss Champ never disappoints
So glad to see you back with another video! I was starting to get worried that it might not be in the cards, but I'm glad to hear you seem to be on the road to recovery, even if you're not quite there yet. Remember to give yourself grace while you're on the mend, and I hope you can bounce back from the hiatus without too much struggle!

This is the end for Chaos His evil deeds have caught up to him All he can do now is stare the White Mage in the eye One final attempt to spread fear in this mortal coil However, to Chaos's surprise, the White Mage isn't paying attention to his demise Instead, she sat down on the floor, to enjoy a nice, warm latte "How is it still warm?" Chaos asks That is a question Chaos will never know the answer to
Rationalizing the use of corpse inventory on the grounds of it being funny made me legit laugh out loud 😆 Love you champ, never change... or do change, but only to become an ever increasingly better version of yourself, hopefully with less hand pain and mandatory foot play. Although optional foot play is certainly a useful talent to have.
I see Gamechamp is still as funny as she always was, she hasn't lost her sense of humour and I hope she never does. We're loyal viewers, we don't mind how long we have to wait until your next video.
I can't believe RUclips only just recommended your channel. Def subscribing and considering supporting in your livlihood and being able to eat race. Great humor, engaging line delivery, and clean visuals. Keep up the good work man.
Big agreement, I'm glad to have stumbled upon this in my sidebar too. 😄 I'm just letting you know that at 6:57 , it was pointed out subtly that she has parted ways with the "man" label. 😉
I'm so happy your back and fantastic video!!! Sorry to hear your hands still haven't recovered. As much as I love VG myths, your health is infinitely more important than a youtube channel, so don't be afraid to take another break if you need it Thoughts and prayers, keep being bad at video games ❤❤❤
As someone who recently gained an interest in the Final Fantasy series thanks to FFXIV Online and a white mage main in said game, I approve 200% of this challenge run
Unlike most solo challenge runs, the White Mage (sans white wizard) solo run is probably the hardest. Since you lose out on most forms of damage and have to rely heavily on RNG being in your favor. In a game held together by hopes and dreams thats not exactly something you should rely on lol
I’m excited to see the next episode of the Yugioh comparison series too, so I’m very glad to hear that it’s out on the Patreon. After rewatching that comparison series, I started checking out the subbed version myself, and it’s been just fascinating to see all the ways things were changed.
I love the black mage servi-bot! great video as always, girl! I have similar hand pain problems so I'm so sorry you're going through that. thanks for another great video! 🎉
Was watching this video while farming the Titanite Demon in Dark Souls, and you made me walk off the side of the bridge and lose 100k souls. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for pointing out that wisdom was never actually programmed to do anything, and not that it's "bugged." It's not a programming error; it's a design oversight. I'm way too pedantic not to be bothered by that :P Also yeah the Japanese Famicom version of this game actually is a great way to see how one's Japanese is coming along because all the text is in kana and fairly easy to read.
I didn't think one could make an over-the-top explanation of FF1's Intelligence stat. Perfection :) Congratulations on the run, hope your hands recover quickly!
It’d be interesting to compare this run across different versions - NES versus GBA versus remasters… Not something that would come up in this run but NES battles have this weird mechanic where if a monster dies before a member of your party can attack it, the attack just whiffs. The attack doesn’t target to the next enemy, your guy just attacks the air. You have to predict when enemies are going to be knocked out so you don’t waste turns.
The irony is that this run effectively bypasses the bug. Which makes me wonder if the game was originally programmed to have one hero (like Dragon Quest) rather than four...
I remember the legend of how a White Mage named Siri backed Chaos into a corner and forced him to flee from this realm simply by walking foward into the room, dragging the decaying corpses of her party behind her.
Glad to see you back Gamerchamp! Also, as someone who’s played Final Fantasy on the NES a lot when I was younger, seeing this video was a pleasure! Also, glad your hands are progressively better now from the strain of Repliku 4 and Larxene 2.
If you want to see full FF1 challenge/mod/randomizer runs, BlueAnkylo is fantastic at them. Dude knows the game back to front, and in non-solo runs he avoids getting overleveled to keep things interesting. He's done solo runs of every class, several times, on several different versions. From watching him I know that solo thief is the real challenge mode, especially on the NES due to the bugs in the original game. The way he speaks is great for watching at 1.5x speed, too, which is great when you're blasting through his hours long playthroughs. Highly recommended!
Genuinely, this is one of my favorite videos you’ve ever made. The jokes are top-notch and you make this RPG so engaging!! If this means we’re getting videos on all the numbered final fantasy games, i’m super excited for the future :>
This is the first video of this channel that I watch. The plain yet very sarcastic narration full of dry humor was amazing, but the IT'S TIME TO *KILL CHAOS* freaking killed me, another type of humor I like is just loud stupid stuff Amazing vid! Now I'll proceed to binge a lot of other videos
I'm glad your hands are even slightly on the mend. Please do take care of yourself, and your continued efforts are appreciated. I loved the part where the White Mage said "Bullshit," played Limp Bizkit, and walked away as Goblins ate their allies.
Congrats Gamechamp! Hope you fully recover soon, and of course thanks for always pushing yourself for these “fun” challenges, but I hope you don’t hurt yourself for it again.
I love this game, flaws and all. It's got such an adventurous aura and solid open world progression for such an old game. Thanks for doing this crazy challenge!
Glad to see you back! Hope your hands get better. I gotta say, a healer continuously being slain by monsters and brought back to life in order to go against her nature and become the most efficient killing machine in the world with only the corpses of her would-be allies for company makes me think of, like, a dark fantasy series that treats the whole process literally. Something in the vein of Re:Zero and All You Need is Kill, but the heroine uses a bunch of carcasses for extra pocket space.
Great to see you back! Hope your hands are feeling okay, and interested to see if Final Fantasy joins Ratchet & Clank and Rockman as a recurring franchise on the channel.
I remember reading a bunch of FF challenge playthroughs on somebody's online website. I loved those: i think solo white mage was also among them, but that doesn't mean i'm not looking forward to seeing it again in all your VGMyths glory!
EYYY a new gamechamp video, it's been ages, but i'm glad you're doing alright now that your hands have (mostly) recovered also, question, have you been doing voice training? you sound great :)
Been a while since catching a video and I just wanted to say, it's really heartwarming to hear this voice in a video. I'm sorry if I phrase anything poorly but I hope you know I'm saying this all from a place of love. I know for a long while you were using your "old voice" exclusively in videos because people "expected it"... And honestly I'm really happy to hear you speaking like this so openly in a video. It's great to see the real you :)
I mean, I've been programming long enough that i wholly disagree that A is less than 4, but otherwise great video! 😂 Great to have you back and to hear the news that your injuries are getting better! Love the content as always 💖

pretty much the same in German afaik @@Z3DT
@@Z3DTSpanish as well, "a" (un/una) is just "one" (uno) but it agrees with its noun's gender like a normal adjective
I love how the title implies that the challenge isn't ONLY having a white mage and NOTHING ELSE, but that having one in your party AT ALL is enough of a challenge
that title would go to the thief. they're so terrible in the NES version that many people genuinely consider that to be the case. they have absolutely zero spells, their main stats are agility and luck (both pretty awful stats), they have terrible armor and low magic resistance, and endurance is their dump stat making them the squishiest of the fighters with practically nothing to bolster it. the only way they can viably fight is killing the enemy before the enemy can kill them, but don't have the strength to even do that. literally the only thing they have going for them is they can equip almost any weapon, but good luck surviving long enough to get a decent one.
I hope your recovery continues swiftly and well! That TIME TO KILL CHAOS made me think Jack Garland himself busted into the video, congratulations!!!
I was hoping this run existed because of 8-Bit Theater and I was not disappointed
Hello, would you like to hear how you can KILL CHAOS!! ?
Oh God. I forgot about that. I'm old as hell now
I was just thinking about that this afternoon.
Four white mages? It'll never work.
Longest running joke I know of from web comics. 8-Bit Theater was amazing!
I picture Jack waking up at the end, asking what happened, finding out Chaos is dead, and contentedly slumping back onto the floor.

For anyone who wants to try this challenge on more recent versions of FF1, you’ll likely be playing on a version where the Peninsula of Power bug was fixed, making the mid-game grind a bit trickier. If you can beat Astos, you’ll eventually unlock the Mystic Key, which will allow you to open up a treasure room in his castle to the left of the throne room. Bring some healing items and park yourself wherever you can save closest to this room. Each of the tiles adjacent to the chests in that room will throw you into a battle with a horde of undead enemies - on the version I played, the second-tier Dia spell will kill them all instantly, bestowing you with a good sum of EXP and an even gooder sum of cold, hard cash. Because these tiles are forced encounters, you can run back and forth on these tiles over and over again to trigger the same encounter repeatedly, allowing you to farm these enemies for experience and money for as long as you feel like it!
(Source: Did a White Mage run myself on the now-discontinued mobile version of FF1. Needless to say, I was psyched to see this video in my feed!)
This is my preferred mid-game grind strategy. You can also use the guaranteed enemies in the treasure room in the Earth Cave, though obviously those are less safe.
Did they ever make Wisdom actually do anything in the remakes?
@@Xeronoia Yes, Wisdom (or INT in later localizations) are applied at least as far back as the GBA remakes, and I believe the PS1 versions do as well. Red Mage becomes noticeably less useful as a caster as a result.
I thought Square Enix added the Peninsula of Power back to recent ports of the game?
@@BamaTears I know it's not in Pixel Remaster; I forget if it still existed in other ports (GBA/PSP) or not offhand.
I wanna just imagine the white mage just drags the bodies of their team mates to each battle so they can watch
He grounded them into powder and put them into three small pouches.
17:20 This section makes me want to see a comic series following the White Mage solo. I picture it being a combination of serious scenarios and goofy-ass shenanigans. Like the beginning where they're trekking back to the first town and performing some Weekend at Bernie's shenanigans atop the hill after surviving a horror-filled prologue that kills-off the other three (One of them dies in an anticlimactic way by just being an idiot, tripping and breaking their neck or something). Get to Astos and he seems fine, talking in English, then when you give him the crown he starts talking in Japanese and turns evil, confusing the f*** out of the White Mage. Just continue this tone throughout the entire story.
After the final battle, someone mentions that the White Mage could have just revived their teammates at a church, COMPLETELY throwing them for a loop with a little box reminding us that their "Wisdom" stat is nonexistent in comparison to their other stats (Make this a recurring joke), and leading to the epilogue which shows off everyone's stat-growth from the beginning of the story to the end, everyone having no growth except for the White Mage who reached max level and max stats with nearly no Wisdom.
Wait a second. This white mage has the same build as Aqua from Konosuba.

I imagine Gamechamp wants to do a FFX No Sphere Grid Challenge, but she needs to play games in order, so she has begun the Final Fantasy Grind!
Shhhhhhh
What challenge even is there for FF2? I can see options for everything beyond that, but 2 there isn’t much in the ways of alternate strategies.
FF 2 attack only
@@alidouciousbarefisted attack is the most broken way to play FF2.
Magic only would be more challenging.
@@BoltTheEmolgaff2’s level up system is different from from ff games. Each stat that can be improved requires specific actions, and all 3 party members alongside other members have many different things to level up. Projared explains it pretty well in his review for final fantasy 2.
Good to see you back, Gamerchamp.
I missed these videos a lot lol

Welcome back, my queen 🫡🫡
It’s so good to see you back. Hope your hands can forgive you for being bad at KH.
It’s funny seeing you mention how strange the magic system is, considering I guessed it immediately when you said that. It’s the same one as Dungeons and Dragons, since these games were based off of it.
More specifically, based off of Wizardry, which was based off of D&D.
To be fair, Dungeons and Dragons has a strange magic system, shared only with the least creative D&D clones and one fantasy author whose magic system wasn't stolen by anyone else, because Vancian magic is just awkward.
The stupid part about it is that the Wisdom stat was broken, not broken as to being abused is a great strategy, but as broken as to it not working…oh I guess they already knew about that….
@@timothymclean Wizardry is not what I would call a "least creative D&D clone", personally. I will agree with you that Vancian magic is awkward, though.
@@timothymclean In case you didn't know, Jack Vance (the author you referenced) is the creator of the Vancian magic system and is named after him. Gygax used the system in D&D, and D&D is why/how it became a trope, but did not create the system of magic.
You didn't claim that D&D made the system but I wanted to clarify just in case others who read this don't know this history. Personally, I enjoy the system but understand it is confusing and doesn't fit the current pop culture of magic. Heck, it confused the hell out of me when I was a kid enough to dissuade me from even trying D&D until much later; it's only with my now 2+ decades of experience in TTRPGs that I appreciate how it reins in magic and rewards forethought despite it's immense learning curve.

Recovered from what? I'm not in the know.
@@IndigoStorm27chronic hand pain
@@Hidden_Ferni thought it was the pokemon no damage run.
@@angelman69both. there’s no way she didn’t suffer both physical and psychological damage from that run
@@Hidden_Fern Ah, ok. Thanks.
That beginning really hit hard for me since I still have chronic wrist pain for about a year now. And I have that exact same arcade stick, but I haven't tried playing with my feet for fear of the pain showing up there too. It really is awful
I was worried about that too; I eased myself in playing just a little bit each day with long breaks. I can now use it mostly indefinitely.
I don't know if you guys have arthiritis or carpal tunnel but I developed really brutal carpal tunnel from playing WoW 10 hours a day. Its technically a wrist thing but still caused a lot of pain in my fingers and hand joints. A wrist brace (the kind with the metal splint) and changing my chair and keyboard setup to something more ergonomic helped a lot. I basically don't have it anymore.
I'm not sure you could do a run that I WOULDN'T enjoy. Your voice, humor, and how you explain and talk about stuff is just memorizing! Pure entertainment (edutainment?) gold! My thoughts go out to your hands, glad to hear they're on the "up swing" of healing!
i second this! ive never cared about the final fantasy series but i cant stop watching this video ^^
This challenge is legendary among FF1 players. An infamous brick wall of pain. My respects to you Champ for even ATTEMPTING this
holy crap, that "time to KILL CHAOS!" really caught me off-guard, I've never heard Gamechamp so excited and/or loud lol
I hope your hands heal up fully :]
She was extremely loud and excitable in her earlier videos, the jumpless Mario ones especially.
@@jellywillreturn oh, I guess this is like a return to form then?
also, are we supposed to refer to Gamechamp with feminine pronouns? if so, thank you cuz' I probably would've ended up calling them a "he" at some point.
@@pillowmint4622 Gamechamp came out as transgender sometime after the Pokémon Blue video, you can hear her address herself as “Ms. Gamer Champ” in this video at one point.
@@jellywillreturn ah, ok! I'm playing Shovel Knight while listening to videos in the background, so I guess I didn't notice.
@@pillowmint4622 No worries! It sounds like you might be new to the channel, so if that’s the case, I hope you enjoy her sizable backlog!
If I could make a recommendation, if you like RPG challenge runs, she’s described that aforementioned Pokémon Blue run as her proudest accomplishment in gaming. I think it makes for great listening material!
(Obviously, since she wasn’t out yet, she does misgender herself in the script for that one, in case that causes any confusion.)
I got an ad for audible and it ended with “it feels good to hear- GOOD MORNING EVEEYONE AND WELCOME BACK TO VG MYTHS”
Ayy, you're back! We're all happy to see you.
As someone who permanently damaged my dominant wrist, I know exactly how difficult it is to deal with chronic hand pain, so I'm very glad you're prioritizing your body over your channel!
"FOUR WHITE MAGES?! IT"LL NEVER WORK!!!"
The enthusiasm in your voice when you talk about a topic like wisdom sold me. Just subbed. Keep on creating.
It’s a great day when Champ comes back from a long break because you know the video’s gonna be great.
This INT (Wisdom) stat no being programmed is 100% true and absolutely hilarious. I'm part of the Final Fantasy Randomizer community and the rando fixes ever "bug" the game has. Anything with evidence that it was intended to go somewhere and wasn't done right. INT, though, just goes nowhere. No process, no indication. So we don't fix it because there's nothing to fix.
Best guess: since Final Fantasy 1 is based in D&D (to a very copyright-violating degree), they put in INT and gave it stat growth so they could use it eventually... and then never came up with any reason to use it, and at that point it was a bigger pain to remove it than to leave it and just ignore it.
Notes on the run:
1) Heal is a party-wide healing spell so less need to have it than cure spells in the game for a solo party member.
2) If you're grinding and enemies start running away, put one of your level 1 corpses into the front slot. The game only reads the first character when calculating things like morale (whether they run) and ambush. Yes, stronger packs will be more likely ambush you, but they won't run.
3) "Less likely to incur paralysis, stone, and death" but, because of the way the game is programmed, not impossible. There's always a 3/256 crit chance for any spell and, even with a ribbon, those effects (and others) will still get through.
@@Gotmilk0112 Balance. If you go with any of the fixes that were put in later games (which were done by other programmers than the original team) then it does drastically change the balance of magic in the NES game.
OH MY GOD YES, NEW GAMECHAMP VIDEO! Your challenge runs are honestly some of my favorite content in RUclips and I had been seriously missing your uploads. Super excited to watch this one while I eat today, just by the premise I know it's gonna be a good one.
Edit: just started watching the video and now I feel kinda of bad lol. Didn't know about your chronic hand pain, but I hope you get better soon Miss Champ! And take your time to recover, I can always rewatch your previous bangers in between your new uploads. Your wellbeing comes first.
Edit 2: Absolutely kino. Miss Champ never disappoints
“LV 620,000 spells” caught me completely off guard!
So glad to see you back with another video! I was starting to get worried that it might not be in the cards, but I'm glad to hear you seem to be on the road to recovery, even if you're not quite there yet. Remember to give yourself grace while you're on the mend, and I hope you can bounce back from the hiatus without too much struggle!
*Black Mage:* "Four white mages? It'll never work."

Since we're bringing others up, how about Metroid Third Deriative? Any readers of that? How about Two Evil Scientists?
This is the end for Chaos
His evil deeds have caught up to him
All he can do now is stare the White Mage in the eye
One final attempt to spread fear in this mortal coil
However, to Chaos's surprise, the White Mage isn't paying attention to his demise
Instead, she sat down on the floor, to enjoy a nice, warm latte
"How is it still warm?" Chaos asks
That is a question Chaos will never know the answer to
Rationalizing the use of corpse inventory on the grounds of it being funny made me legit laugh out loud 😆
Love you champ, never change... or do change, but only to become an ever increasingly better version of yourself, hopefully with less hand pain and mandatory foot play. Although optional foot play is certainly a useful talent to have.
"And unfortunately, 4 is a bigger number than A"
Normal people: "Makes sense."

this had me laughing way too much, your sense of humor is great
Imagine getting multiple copies of the game going and doing solo runs for every class at once.
With one controller for the inputs of them all at once.
That sounds like a nightmare😅
It's probably impossible, which would make it quite impressive to pull off.
@@timothymcleanHow would you even do setup?
I see Gamechamp is still as funny as she always was, she hasn't lost her sense of humour and I hope she never does. We're loyal viewers, we don't mind how long we have to wait until your next video.

@@ManNether She may have been born a male, but she's non binary and uses she/her pronouns, plus, she went through her transformation to a woman.
@@CampGareth I know right! She's hilarious.
I loved the Mario Picross sounds you put during Chaos's death sequence. Random callbacks to previous episodes always make me laugh.
She also threw the “sip a latte” sound in there >w
And on top of that, she sipped a latte.
I can't believe RUclips only just recommended your channel. Def subscribing and considering supporting in your livlihood and being able to eat race. Great humor, engaging line delivery, and clean visuals. Keep up the good work man.
Big agreement, I'm glad to have stumbled upon this in my sidebar too. 😄 I'm just letting you know that at 6:57 , it was pointed out subtly that she has parted ways with the "man" label. 😉
@@ZaCloud-Animations___she-her right on, just wasn't being very observing very well. Still, keep up the good work. 👍
that outburst of chaos woke me up after a long work day; thank you for your amazing enthusiasm- i, as a white mage main, suddenly feel motivated !
I'm so happy your back and fantastic video!!!
Sorry to hear your hands still haven't recovered. As much as I love VG myths, your health is infinitely more important than a youtube channel, so don't be afraid to take another break if you need it
Thoughts and prayers, keep being bad at video games ❤❤❤
As someone who recently gained an interest in the Final Fantasy series thanks to FFXIV Online and a white mage main in said game, I approve 200% of this challenge run
Unlike most solo challenge runs, the White Mage (sans white wizard) solo run is probably the hardest. Since you lose out on most forms of damage and have to rely heavily on RNG being in your favor. In a game held together by hopes and dreams thats not exactly something you should rely on lol
Welcome to FFXIV. It’s such a special game.
Problem is you can't just spam Holy in FF1
@warlock415 depends on the version honestly, since some don't have limitations outside of MP. Granted you won't get it til endgame regardless
@@knightsurda The joke is that in FF14, there's a meme about WHM Holy spam once they hit level 50 (out of current level cap of 90)
This has been a fantastic week for me in RUclips. Styropyro AND Gamechamp are back? Yes please.
I’m excited to see the next episode of the Yugioh comparison series too, so I’m very glad to hear that it’s out on the Patreon.
After rewatching that comparison series, I started checking out the subbed version myself, and it’s been just fascinating to see all the ways things were changed.
I love the black mage servi-bot! great video as always, girl! I have similar hand pain problems so I'm so sorry you're going through that. thanks for another great video! 🎉
Was watching this video while farming the Titanite Demon in Dark Souls, and you made me walk off the side of the bridge and lose 100k souls. Keep up the good work!
Were you able to get them back?
May your hands be healed by the power of the White Mage... or failing that, just hope you get better soon, Gamechamp!
not this white mage though, they'd just leave her to die by making her interact with a stick repeatedly
Or very least get to FF4. Cecil should be able to help with that. (Cookie if you understand)
Funny thing is, in a lot of my runs the White Mage(Wizard) does end up with the Masamune for non-boss fights. Makes them go stupid fast.
Thank you for pointing out that wisdom was never actually programmed to do anything, and not that it's "bugged." It's not a programming error; it's a design oversight.
I'm way too pedantic not to be bothered by that :P
Also yeah the Japanese Famicom version of this game actually is a great way to see how one's Japanese is coming along because all the text is in kana and fairly easy to read.
“I’m your White Mage. And NOBODY. Fucks. With the White Mage.”
I was literally just rewatching old VG Myths and saw this one release, great to see you back!
I didn't think one could make an over-the-top explanation of FF1's Intelligence stat. Perfection :)
Congratulations on the run, hope your hands recover quickly!
HOW DO YOU FORGET TO PROGRAM AN ENTIRE STAT!?
ITS LITERALLY RIGHT THERE ON THE STAT SCREEN!
ITS RIGHT THERE!
It’d be interesting to compare this run across different versions - NES versus GBA versus remasters…
Not something that would come up in this run but NES battles have this weird mechanic where if a monster dies before a member of your party can attack it, the attack just whiffs. The attack doesn’t target to the next enemy, your guy just attacks the air. You have to predict when enemies are going to be knocked out so you don’t waste turns.
I actually liked that mechanic, but it's not a big deal. I also LOVE FF1's spell system and I wish more games would use it.,
The irony is that this run effectively bypasses the bug. Which makes me wonder if the game was originally programmed to have one hero (like Dragon Quest) rather than four...
I remember the legend of how a White Mage named Siri backed Chaos into a corner and forced him to flee from this realm simply by walking foward into the room, dragging the decaying corpses of her party behind her.
This is my favourite channel, thank you for having this channel man!!
Glad to see you back Gamerchamp!
Also, as someone who’s played Final Fantasy on the NES a lot when I was younger, seeing this video was a pleasure!
Also, glad your hands are progressively better now from the strain of Repliku 4 and Larxene 2.
If you want to see full FF1 challenge/mod/randomizer runs, BlueAnkylo is fantastic at them. Dude knows the game back to front, and in non-solo runs he avoids getting overleveled to keep things interesting. He's done solo runs of every class, several times, on several different versions. From watching him I know that solo thief is the real challenge mode, especially on the NES due to the bugs in the original game. The way he speaks is great for watching at 1.5x speed, too, which is great when you're blasting through his hours long playthroughs. Highly recommended!
Hell yeah Blue is the best!
Genuinely, this is one of my favorite videos you’ve ever made. The jokes are top-notch and you make this RPG so engaging!! If this means we’re getting videos on all the numbered final fantasy games, i’m super excited for the future :>
4 is indeed a bigger number than A. This is going to be a good challenge.
*cries in hexadecimal*
But A is just 4 with an extra line
@@jellywillreturn Well, a 4 that fell over a bit. Presumably the extra line is there to prop it up.
This is the first video of this channel that I watch. The plain yet very sarcastic narration full of dry humor was amazing, but the IT'S TIME TO *KILL CHAOS* freaking killed me, another type of humor I like is just loud stupid stuff
Amazing vid! Now I'll proceed to binge a lot of other videos
They're all good; I found the channel not long ago and I've already watched most of them twice.
Glad to have you here, it's an accepting community so let's enjoy her suffering together
it's so nice to see you again! but please don't kill yourself to get videos out ❤
"IT'S TIME TO KILL CHAOS!"
I nearly choked on my sleeping bag!
Wow! Finally I'm being represented in one of your videos!!! Thank you for answering my question!
Welcome back Gamechamp, we hope you heal up soon! Microsoft has some amazing accessibility controllers that you might benefit from looking into.
2:25 Ok "4 is a bigger number than 'a' " is a really really funny pun! Excellent!
I'm glad your hands are even slightly on the mend. Please do take care of yourself, and your continued efforts are appreciated.
I loved the part where the White Mage said "Bullshit," played Limp Bizkit, and walked away as Goblins ate their allies.
The wisdom stat is actually a really funny giga brain joke if you think about it. I love that
This was a lot of fun to watch, but its also a blast hearing the patreon names I love the laughs from that
The latte and pulling up Picross during the cutscene of Chaos disintegrating was, frankly, beautiful.
Congrats Gamechamp! Hope you fully recover soon, and of course thanks for always pushing yourself for these “fun” challenges, but I hope you don’t hurt yourself for it again.
I love this game, flaws and all. It's got such an adventurous aura and solid open world progression for such an old game. Thanks for doing this crazy challenge!
I do especially like how remakes of this game make it more in line with newer turn based games
"puppeteer your dead friends into a dramatic pose" I almost did a spit take all over my computer
“Puppeteer your dead friends into a dramatic pose” lmao😂
Glad to see you back! Hope your hands get better. I gotta say, a healer continuously being slain by monsters and brought back to life in order to go against her nature and become the most efficient killing machine in the world with only the corpses of her would-be allies for company makes me think of, like, a dark fantasy series that treats the whole process literally. Something in the vein of Re:Zero and All You Need is Kill, but the heroine uses a bunch of carcasses for extra pocket space.
That delivery of "kill chaos" was something else.
Great to see you back! Hope your hands are feeling okay, and interested to see if Final Fantasy joins Ratchet & Clank and Rockman as a recurring franchise on the channel.
Wisdom in this game is apparently the original inspiration for that one useless stat from every FromSoft game. Lol
this is still one of my favorite gamechamp. I keep coming back to rewatch just cause i love the writing so much.
I remember reading a bunch of FF challenge playthroughs on somebody's online website. I loved those: i think solo white mage was also among them, but that doesn't mean i'm not looking forward to seeing it again in all your VGMyths glory!
EYYY a new gamechamp video, it's been ages, but i'm glad you're doing alright now that your hands have (mostly) recovered
also, question, have you been doing voice training? you sound great :)
Nope! But I'm happy people like my voice anyway
I suppose we should blame Larxene for Gamechamp’s hands now
Larxene.
You don't have to put on the red light.
"4 is bigger than A" I love you
11:50 "Eat a sleeping bag".

Gamechamp, if youre looking for games you could play with your feet, strategy challenges like Fire Emblem could be quite fun

damageless Hopes? (obv not single-segment)
don’t know many other FE games, but those runs sound pretty fun
@@circularnectarine1439 I've actually already done Pacifist 3H, and it was a very fun run. It would be hype if GC3000 did it
Please don’t ever hurt yourself again. If a challenge is beginning to hurt you please stop.
"Final Fantasy is the least final fantasy game -" is a banger of a phrase
Been a while since catching a video and I just wanted to say, it's really heartwarming to hear this voice in a video. I'm sorry if I phrase anything poorly but I hope you know I'm saying this all from a place of love. I know for a long while you were using your "old voice" exclusively in videos because people "expected it"... And honestly I'm really happy to hear you speaking like this so openly in a video. It's great to see the real you :)
23:13
Thank you for explaining, I wouldn't have guessed that the status effect "Death" leads to Death!
(Don't worry not being mean, I love the video!)
I mean, I've been programming long enough that i wholly disagree that A is less than 4, but otherwise great video! 😂
