During the fight with the Cyclops in Seas of Blood, you are given the option to 'kick it in the groin'. Despite knowing full well that this leads to a bad outcome, I find myself unable to resist taking this option every time (as well as leading me to wonder whether the monophthalmic nature of the beast is mirrored by any other part of its anatomy).
As far as I know, this is the only time in the FF series that you are given such an option, which is something of a shame as I feel there are other occasions when it could come in useful. For example:
Crypt of the Sorceror, ref 343
'I'm just a simple man, known as the Bonekeeper,' the little man says in a sad voice, 'and I do not know of any lost lake. I sort through these bones and carve some of them into magical rings. I would very much like a new knife for my work, and would gladly give you one of my rings in exchange.' If you possess a knife which you would like to exchange for a ring, turn to 208. If you would like to psychotically attack the harmless old man, turn to 134. If you would like to kick him in the groin, take his Skull Ring and leave the poor sod alive (if writhing in pain for a bit), turn to 265.
Masks of Mayhem, Background
Ifor Tynin comes straight to the point: 'You must slay Morgana. You are the noblest ruler and the boldest fighter of the land. Only you can succeed.'
If you make your preparations and depart the next morning, turn to 1. If you would like to kick him in the groin and tell him to stick his quest up his arse, turn to 400.
I'm sure there are some other examples of where this would be a handy option that some of you can think of.
