>Disc 2 of any JRPG
That's so specific you might as well have said which one. The fact that it's a) a disc-based format, b) said format was so limited that it required multiple discs for one game and c) a JRPG, means that there's pretty much only one system and a handful of franchises this could even apply to.

For me it was the parachute drop into Midgar, cutscene froze every fucking time. It took me like five years before I was able to get a replacement copy of the game.

for me I bought ff7 and ff8 on the same day. started with 8 since it was newer, but my disc 1 was fucked so I couldn't get to the disc change screen. I could get up to the cutscene before the disc change
I just ended up playing 7 first then I did the blockbuster switcharoo on my ff8 disc's after

>so specific
Not really. Most jrpgs had 2 discs, especially on gamecube and ps1. Fuck, FF13 had 3 discs and that was on xbox360. There's probably at least 20 games with multiple discs, most of them final fantasy.

By that time, software storage was too damn high that you could dram in the 2 discs into one, unless of course you didn't optimize for shit.

Most of these aren't JRPGs, more than a few aren't even Japanese games at all.

One may say that I cheated a little because Dark Souls II and other mainstream Xbox 360 games do not make you swap discs and instead, one of the discs is used for installation data and the other is the game disc or what you use to play the game itself but hey, it's not the same concept and I bet the last time a game forced someone to swap discs was in the early 2010s at the latest but a multi disc game is a multi disc game. If we only consider games where one disc is installation and the other is a game disc, the list would be something like this:
-Watch Dogs (Xbox 360)
-Grand Theft Auto V (Xbox 360)
-Dark Souls II (Xbox 360)
-Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain (Xbox 360)
-Cyberpunk 2077 (Xbox One, PS4 and Xbox Series X)
-Final Fantasy VII Remake and Rebirth (PS4 and PS5 respectively)
-Alone in the Dark (Xbox Series X)
-Metaphor ReFantazio Xbox Series X)
-Remnant II (Xbox Series X)
-Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora (Xbox Series X)
There's also Tales of Arise for Xbox consoles but I'm not sure if both discs are required.

>>722341905
it was like dividing by 0

>>722341905
It'd politely ask you to insert the correct disc.
