The stairs all the time, not because Im lazy to fight. But I love the humour in the dialogue between Barrett, Tifa and Cloud when thier climbing all those stairs.

I've only played it once, I did the stairs, next time I'll go in guns blazing ^^. That part has to be one of my all-time favorite segments of any game. Except for climbing the stairs tongue.gif

How can you not love the stair climbing? It the most memorable scenes in the game maybe even more memorable than Sephiroth in the flames rolleyes.gif .

First time in the Shinra Building I always use the front door to get the Turtle Paradise flyer and the exp.
On the second time, I use the stairs to go down... this way you get Behemoth Horn and the Elixir in one turn.

Finally, go back to the 59th level, and take the stairs down. You will find the δBehemoth Horn lying on one of the stairs (it won’t be there if you decided to climb up the stairs: it only appears if you climb down).

Word.

Honestly, people. The stairs scene is great. Sure, it is a long walk, but it's Cloud doing the walking, not you. Okay, so you get extra exp (and feel like an !OMG! superhero), but why pass up an extra and funny exchange between Tifa and Barrett?

Stairs for the humor. I get the flyer later on if I'm feeling completionist. To help alleviate the boredom I try to catch up to Tifa before she reaches the door that causes a screen change. It gets tougher each time.

Stairs for the speed run and the dialogue. Although, not getting the Elemental materia off the major first time means I had to restart and do them several times. I counted stuff like number of steps to keep me sane enough to carry on.

I like storming in the front doors better. I am too lazy to walk up all those stairs.

The stairs are humorous, but I still prefer busting in and busting heads. The EXP ain't really worth it and it's kinda annoying, but the chaos, the fleeing group of employees, the ability to get the Turtle Flyer and check out the shop and advertisements within has it's charm.

i love going in the front way but i like getting the items on the stairs even if it is a little tedious. i mean very tedious!!!!! but i usually die storming the front door because im not very enemy concious at that time because i leave a space of about 6 months between playing because i like to play something light hearted to elevate my mood smile.gif

- its on the roof when you fight rufus as well.

defo front doors. i love barging in and killin off the guards. also i think the guards run away from you for a bit when you do (or it could have been a crowd of people or it could have been a different part of the game lol but a still like it). my memory got wiped by a faulty memory card, and i went up the stairs the second time purely because i hadnt seen what happens yet.

Always took the stairs. I think I took the front door the first time through but the crazy elevators.. I really didn't like that so I always took the stairs after that. They take awhile longer but on the +side, it's funny as hell.

I love going up the elevators and stopping on a floor (can't remember which one, might be random) and an employee is about to get on and he sees you and backs off saying he'll take the next one, then runs lol
