Playing it on original hardware with 15-second+ load times for every single battle was brutal. And then there's the ATB logjam because of the in-battle loads.

Between that and how happy the game was to throw Game Overs at you early on, I think this was the first game I ever hate-played.

Every boss having valuable stealable items with low chance was brutal too. The fact that you could just keep trying forever instead of a one time calculation just begged you to keep trying. Most weren't hard, just time consuming.
