Why are they unreasonable?
>>12687213Name 10 examples or fuck off, ShatJeetPeeT
The game has been discussed to death, most have made up which side they fall on and if they don't have a side its to stir the pot and fuck with people
Soon...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fa5gcYA8xf8
>>12687224Perhaps the same could be said of all games
>>12687213People didn't understand that rinoa is ultimecia because of the bad translation so it didn't have the emotional weight of an aerith being killed
>>12687548I thought Rinoa was Ultimecia the first time I played it (‘02). I didn’t realize it was a point of contention until the remaster came out and I started replaying and talking about it online.To me, it seems really obvious.
>>12687213Because FF7 fanboys are incapable of comprehending that there could be a Final Fantasy game better than VII
>>12687548i played it in italian as an ISL and didnt really understand it. still my fav ff
>>12687213The game itself is extreme and unreasonable.
It requires the highest IQ of any FF to grasp both the gameplay and the story. FF fans aren't known for their surplus of intelligence.
I don't get the meme of bot threads about FF8 on /vr/. Is it just "haha there's ALWAYS an FF8 thread in the catalog that's the entire joke"?
>>12687617There used to be a resident FF8 schizo here and /vrpg/, he’d type out the wildest theories about how it ties into everything humans have ever made and how little details reveal new mystical secrets.It was fun to read.
Have you noticed that every single FF8 thread never discusses the game, but the reactions towards it?
>>12687621...You only have to check the other thread to see talk about the game
>>12687624Might have triggered my filters since I didn't spot the other thread. Because you know, the FF8 spam has been so bad over the years that I had to filter most of it
>>12687213I hated the story but loved the gameplay.
Because the people reacting to the game are extreme and unreasonable. But you already know that.
>>12687213>why are reactions to this game often extreme and unreasonable ?Because gays hate heterosexual romance
>>12687609>To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Final Fantasy VIII
>>12687981but why? what makes them that way?
>>12688373You being an obtuse piece of shit doesn't help, tell you that much.
>>12688389see this is what I mean
>>12688405QED, bitch. Prove me wrong.
>>12688412there is no need to be so aggressive and profane anon it’s just final fantasy 8
>>12688417>no needI don't agree. And I haven't said one fucking thing about the game. I have simply implied that you are the problem, and I will not refrain from verbal abuse in the course of your correction without a very good reason. Your say-so is the opposite, so we're not doing it your way.
>>12688424its a video game
>>12688435your face is a video game. you got lovense integration on that mouth or is it couch coop only?
>>12687213Because spoony told us what to think
>>12687570>extreme>final boss is protagonist former loversA whole new meaning, I be damn...
>>12687213Because it makes 7 babies seethe uncontrollably as it's the superior game
>>12688909So true
>>12687213I want to cum on Quistis's tummy
>>12690391nigger
>>12687620I wish I could still be this schizo about games. I used to be obsessed with the classic Phantasy Star series in a similar way but now it's just a cool story to me, but it doesn't feel as important.
I'm a hardcore fan with FF8, so many times I would even try to escape reality with lucid dreaming, I would be in Balamb Garden where I would often train with Zell in the training center and help Selphie with the Garden Festival, but one day as I was talking to Selphie, we went to my dormitory for a private talk. She immediately said, "You know you could live with us forever.." I gave her a confused look and she continued, "We understand that you live on earth and you REALLY wish to live here". I then said "How..How did you know?" She then giggled and said "Because we've been watching you, silly!"This was a dream come true and I almost cried right there. She then said, "I talked with Headmaster Cid and he agreed that you would be PERFECT for SeeD, you just have to do...one thing". She then held my hand and looked deep into my eyes and said "...You have to kill yourself for the transfer to work correctly." I then gave her some questions, "How long do I have before the deal expires?" She then said "Cid said 3 months.." I added by saying "What's the most painless way?..." She giggled again, "Suicide will require pain buuut...if you want it quick...Get a gun and a nice shot to the head works.I then agreed and she gave me a kiss on the forehead, "I know this will be tough but once it's over and done, you'll get to live here!" I then woke up and this was last week and i purchased a gun. I might actually kill myself because that dream just felt too real to be fake and my life isn't doing so grand.
>>12688437huh
>>12690430Selphie is a demon. Don't listen anon
>>12690430Don't do it. As wonderful as it seems, it isn't real. That you were given contract with an expiration date should be a clue that it would be a mistake you cannot undo. Life may be hard now, but it will pass. You are loved and needed, truly.

>>12687548B-but I t-thought….
>>12687213why is this so hard for zoomers to understand? squall is a shitty protag, the story is complicated nonsense, and the gameplay is dogshit...it's not all bad, though. the visuals were good for the time, huge step up from FF7, and the setting is actually pretty interesting. cant really knock it for at least trying something different, but it was a hard flop regardless of how it sold.
>>12692309>muh story>jrpg
>>12692309nigga fuck u. you got filtered
>>12692314jrpgs are the original movie games
>>12687213It's when the franchise started appealing to normies
