Final Fantasy VIII is the eighth main installment in the Final Fantasy series. The gameplay makes a departure from many series standards. While it still uses the Active Time Battle system, it deviates from the series' traditional means of boosting a character's power via leveling, although levels are not completely abandoned as they were in Final Fantasy II. In addition, it does not have a Magic Point-based system for spell-casting. Instead, magic is collected, drawn, and created from items, and is used to power up the characters via the junction system.

Story

I have yet to come across an FF game that doesn't have a STELLAR soundtrack. If you've never played this game for the love of GOD take the time to read up on how the junctioning system works for this game. Once again as a kid, I couldn't understand the junctioning system at all and it ruined the game for me. But as an adult it was easier to understand how it all works and I was able to beat the game and really enjoyed the game as whole.

This was my first FF game and definitely my favorite. My best friend and I used to stay up all night playing this game together and we beat it multiple times.

Story

Um dos jogos mais belos do PS1 e com uma das melhores trilhas sonoras da franquia eu diria. FF8 foi o primeiro Final Fantasy a ter trilha sonora com voz (Eyes on me - Faye Wong) composta pelo mestre Nobuo Uematsu. Uematsu compos todas as trilhas sonoras do jogo e que pra mim o jogo começa coma das trilhas mais incriveis e finaliza com uma das mais bonitas também. FF8 tem uns problemas que precisam ser apontados, são eles: Junction system: É um sistema que ajuda na evolução dos personagens mas que acaba sendo extremamente massante, pois é totalmente dependente do uso de magias de estoque que são absorvida dos inimigos ou pontos especificos do jogo. Junction system é praticamente impossivel de aturar quando jogado na versão japonesa, já que o junction exchange é inexistente, e que me fez jogar o jogo por mais de 100 horas pra conseguir acabar. Triple Triad: É um jogo de carta bacana, mas que acaba se tornando repetitivo e cansativo depois de algumas jogadas. O triple triad é um ótimo método de evolução, já que é possivel transformar cartas em magias, ao inves de usar o metodo tradicional de draw para absorver as magias do inimigo. História: A história começa com uma narrativa muito boa no primeiro disco do jogo, que acaba se perdendo no decorrer do jogo. E não vou nem mencionar o choro lunar, da ida a lua; momentos que são desnecessarios e que agregam pouco na historia. Ultimecia é uma das unicas antagonistas femininas da franquia e que é muito mal explorada pela narrativa do jogo. O jogo demora muito tempo pra introduzir ao jogador quem realmente é Ultimecia. Bom num todo eu diria que o jogo é ótimo para a sua época e claro não poderia encerrar sem uma falas mais icônicas de FF8 - "You're the best looking guy here".

Очень странная по всем параметрам игра. Сюжет 11/10, но без пол литра не разберёшься. Геймплей топ, но понять как он работает с первого раза нереально. Визуал... Ну как для пс1 збс)) Единственное что збс без всяких "но" - музыка. Чуть ли не лучший саундтрек в принципе. Ну и отдельного упоминания заслуживает Tripple Triad - лучшая мини игра в любой жрпг. Шедевр 11/10 одна из любимых игор эвар.

Challenges Completed ~ No (Random/Optional) Encounters The story is absolutely batshit insane, and it's a card game disguised as an rpg, but it probably has the best pound for pound soundtrack of a final fantasy game. I had a lot more fun with it than I thought I would, and the game almost rewards you for not leveling.

Still my favourite Final Fantasy, despite the absolutely insane story and unlikeable main character. I've played this through several times and love it every time.
