I’ve done the calculations before, but the TL;DR is that one challenge run I enjoy, the Tactics Double Dare, has 116,000+ variations just for the basic game without using cheats to use special, enemy or ally specific Job Classes.
Even an emulated run using frameskips to speed it up would probably take 20-30 hours on average, meaning that to do all the variations would take just under 332 years of play to do them all. That’s actual play time, mind you, not including necessities like sleeping, eating, generating an income, interacting with friends and family or playing anything else.
With cheats to allow for NPC/Enemy Job Classes, it easily reaches into the millions of potential variations, with an equally absurd playtime.
Easily Final Fantasy Tactics for me.
