Is FF8 any good? I’ve played 7 and 9 a bunch of times since they came out, but never had any interest in 8.

No, not really.

It's a lot of fun, but the systems are opaque. Have a friend explain them (or just post here) if you give it a go. FF games excel at two things: spectacle and story. 7 and 9 got the story down (and a fair amount of spectacle!) 8's story is a loving mess. Play it for the spectacle.

It also for some reason changed Rufus' line to Cloud right before their fight from "I see. I guess this means we won't become friends." to something like "I guess we won't be allies."

I dunno, this always just kinda bugged me. Friends sounds so much more mocking and nonchalant. Maybe allies is actaully more accurate to what he said in Japanese, I dunno, but I like friends.

Yeah, his monologue about ruling with fear was good, but that line really cemented his character for me.

I had a good time watching that guy from Kotaku go through FFVII and highlight a bunch of different translation stuff. I'm sad he appears to only want to do Disk 1 but oh well.

Tim Rogers, you say?

I'll accept it as a tradeoff for the back half of the game making a LOT more sense in War of the Lions.

i didn't like it. just changes everything so it can fit into the ff14 lore.

I felt the same, good thing the raids are excellent

The XIV Ivalice story sucks and should be ignored.

The raids own, and the game's main story is really good.

Oh man, a race to the bottom! :dance:

I'd replay FF8 over CC any day of the week, I prefer batshit to weird.

There was no reason everyone in the game world was tripping over themselves to fellate Squall about how great he was. He's more like a bully who is mean-spirited because of his own low self-esteem than he was a "shy, vulnerable" teenager. And he was only as competent as he was at everything because of Protagonist Syndrome. Man that story was bad on so many levels.

They should have gotten the LUCT and FFXII translator for WotL instead of someone doing a bad imitation.

IIRC Alexander O Smith’s the name.

People should play RPGs like normal human beings on their first playthroughs imo

This makes FF8 harder, don't do this
