OMG YOU STUPID COUNTRYSIDE KID... FF8 HAD A VERY COMPLEX STORYLINE... BUT ITS ACTUALLY HIDDEN SO THAT ONLY THOSE WHO SEEK GET AWARE OF IT. IQ > 80 REQUIRED, KK?

1| ULTIMECIA = RINOA --- this surely shocks u... dumb troglodyte. there are many proves but instead of listing them you should browse the so called 'internet': http://www.google.com

2| RINOA BECAME EVIL BECAUSE SQUALL DIED / GOT STUCK IN THE TIME THINGY ( she's the only person who actually sees squall after the final battle )

3| SHE FORGOT EVERYTHING BECAUSE OF THE G.F. SIDEEFFECT

4| REMEMBER THE LINE "I'LL BE WAITING FOR YOU" IN THE INTRO? NOW PLZ TELL ME WHERE ULTIMECIAS CASTLE APPEARED

5| AND THIS IS ONLY THE UPPER SURFACE OF THE STORY... THERE'S MUCH MORE HIDDEN AND MANY MORE ASPECTS, BUT THIS IS THE ONE MOST PEOPLE DONT UNDERSTAND

[/flame]


sry @ sns for caps-abuse but this conglomerate of stupor was calling for it... loudly.

ok... one prove for rinoa=ultimacia, but only the slightest: she got griever. remember? squall gave her the amulet. thats the actual reason why you have to name the GF...

[edit] shit... this reminded me of the sad ending :,(

Most game stories are bad because most are written by game developers who nothing about story structure. Few have any real theme for their story and most plots are linear (in that the protagonist''s goal remains the same all the way through). Most are just an sequence of obstacles with little attempt at setting pace or getting an emotional response.

plz say this again after having proved that i was wrong with any of my statements... you will obviously fail

[X] You posted a message all written in CAPS


you could have marked this if i had _not_ statet it allready myself. but i have to admit that im not experienced with flaming on english and thus my post wasnt as good as it could have been. of course i could have been gentle and postet a normal answer to his post saying that he was actually wrong with his oppinion due to several reasons but the fact that seifer threw FF8 in his personal trashcan just because of his unability/unwill to think about it at least a bit simply drove me mad. concerning the language i used i have to say that the [flame][/flame] tag and the usage of lower internet language like "..., KK?" was inteded to make the post more funny then actually harming(right word?) but i have appearently failed in making it seem so. therefore i apologize for the courses. but i still think seifers oppinion sucks and it would be nice if you would comment on the story-aspects i listed and admit that i was right. thx in advance.

i think that FF8 is only a bad copy (a REAL BAD one) of FF7, THAT was a story!and easy to play...
in ff9 they put a million of sort of things all toghether...only a great mess..(it''s a MY opinion)

There aren''''t problems that can''''t be solved with a gun...
There aren''t problems that can''t be solved with a gun...
The Bad dudes storyline:

"The President has been kidnapped by ninjas, are you a bad enough dude to rescue him" is both the best and worst game story I can think of.
What about the skate or die story.

Agreed, FF7 was something, and Squall''s personality was copied on Cloud''s. FF9 == random encounters.
I hate signatures.
