In a strange twist FF8R is a management game where you fill the shoes of Cid Kramer, running the Garden. You manage class schedules and roster, deploy units to combat zones, and struggle to somehow make money before NORG comes knocking.

ManSedan posted:If there were a VIII Remake I'd want the Garden campus to be HUGE. Dozens of classrooms with the walls detailed with everything from elementary school age colors and posters all the way up to stuffy college lecture halls. A gigantic library and expansive dorms with different zones of kids hanging out. Multiple tiered parking lot. Of course the admin floors would be just as detailed as the classrooms and dorms. Just give me a whole huge school full of character and history. And then make it fly later. I feel like this about practically every location in 6, 8, and 9 (and 7 but they're delivering on that). I kinda hate being such a sucker for the wave of nostalgic remakes but the FFs are such rich and distinct worlds that there really is so much you could dig down into or designs you could glow up while remaining true to the originals. I feel like that's the draw of all the FF7 extended stuff, which I am also pretty down on as a whole. The execution may be wanting but I certainly don't begrudge anyone the desire to explore that world more.

FF8R will also feature a scene where Galbadian Army medic tends to Squall before he's shipped off to prison. He will look directly into the camera while talking to Seifer and say "He's badly injured but I managed to prevent cardiac arrest" The "Squall is dead" nerds will only get louder about their awesome theory

I imagine they would just alter the scene to something other than him getting speared by an icicle.

They live in a world of magic where everyone around him has access to potent healing spells and he was captured by an incredibly powerful witch.

8's world is one of the cases of JRPG worlds being compressed kinda feels to its detriment. With 4 5 6 and 9 you can buy that there's just these kingdoms and the scattered villages you visit are somewhat representative of more villages out in the world that you just don't see. For FF7 it feels reasonable that there's one giant megacity and everywhere else is in decline or barely hanging on in the face of Shinra. Place's like Nibelheim and Gongaga were already under Shinra's thumb even before the start of the game; Wutai is the only major power with anything even resembling independence (and Cosmo Canyon I guess?). Meanwhile the world of FF8 has three big mercenary schools catering to, what, three nations? The Galbadia-Timber and Galbadia-Esthar wars were basically over by the time the Gardens even got up and running.

That logic still applies to 8 though. There’s conceivably dozens of little Winhills throughout the world. Dollet was even its own little duchy just prior to the games start and I’m sure there’s more to that place than just one little seaside town.

Also one of the oddest things about FFVIII is that the super-advanced Centra civilization that was destroyed by the Lunar Cry was destroyed a whopping 80 years ago. They're long forgotten and if this was an "apocalypse," everybody has forgotten that, too, all in the span of less than a hundred years.
