  • As for actual combat advice, you can remap several actions to L1+Face Button so that you don't have to use the menu select. This is really good in particular for Tifa since her moves are very combo-heavy and you don't often want to break up the action.
  • Characters will build almost no ATB if you're not controlling them directly, so you want to swap often to get the most out of their moveset.
  • The Magnify Materia affects more things than you'd think. It will give Cura and Barrier/Manawall an AOE effect, for example.
  • If you come across a lot of things in Chapters 8/9 that seem inaccessible at first, you'll have a chance to return later.
  • The magnify materia works like the all materia from the original game.
  • The dodge has no invincibility frames. You're safer blocking if you can't get away from an attack.
  • Attacks with "focus" in the name (i.e. Focus Shot) build a lot of stagger.
  • At several points you get better or different awards based on how many sidequests you finish.
  • Cloud's counterattack in Punisher Stance is incredibly powerful (block a melee attack in Punisher stance to do the counterattack).
  • For the most part, if you miss a powerful item or don't finish a sidequest you won't be able to go back to it until you unlock chapter select after finishing the game. The exception is the research sidequest, which spans the entire game.
  • Press one of the triggers (R1 or L1, I don't remember which) on the equipment screen to access all party members' materia slots at once.
  • You unlock a chapter selection when you finish the game. In fact, if you are determined to get the platinum trophy, you will be replaying a bunch of chapters several times. Nothing can be permanently lost.
