I would be willing to try out a harder PS2.
I can definitely accommodate that! Perhaps I'll do it like the PSI hacks; I'll make two versions: a harder version and a version that is similar to the original in difficulty.
Also, I was going over some of the Weapon and Armor lists, (haven't looked into the rom yet though) and there's some definite possibilities for some replacement equips like I made for PSI. If the game will allow changing a gun to say a new bar/claw, then I'll be able to create some new equips for Nei to use her for the entire game and have some leftover for new ones.
Even if it won't allow it, I'll figure out a way around it by altering her existing equips to balance out so that she's useful all the way to the end. If I can't figure out how to hack her to keep her available as a player-character throughout, then I'll just include the save-state hack address to force her into your party. Nei is going to be in this hack to the end, no matter what!
