How were kids in 1997, without the internet or guides supposed to figure out how to breed a golden chocobo? And don't even mention the Chocobo Sage, his information is incomplete.

his information is complete though, alongside chocobo billy and zack over at the gold saucer.

They literally explain that they change color based on nuts fed and crossbreeding. There are a few nuts you get from random enemies that obviously have special properties.

you had to buy gaming magazines

we had guides both online and in book form faggot

>without guides
You weren't a kid in 1997 if you think kids didnt obsess over guides as much as they did their games
I remember my brothers having the FF7 guide, and using it extensively

Nope, the Sage even tells you where to get the nuts needed for each color.

>without guides
you do know that gaming magazines and strategy guides were big in the day, so much so that developers would hide things in the game just so you would buy the guide.

>didnt obsess over guides as much as they did their games
This. There were TONS of gaming magazines with huge portions devoted to guides and cheats.
