Final Fantasy VIII The first game in the series to consistently use realistically proportioned characters, FF8 also threw more of a futuristic mix into the old (Hi-)potion that is Final Fantasy.

I didn't really feel anything 'cause it said "Rinoa was lost in space forever..." and then you get the option to try to save her again, so in the words of Squall, whatever.

I hadn't seen the all the Rinoa FMV shots from the opening movie yet so the thought of her dying never even crossed my mind. I knew it wasn't so, and thus I had no worry.

I really loved the whole Squall and Rinoa affair, so her dying was not an option for me. I remember working so hard to rescue her that I never even let that message come up I don't think, lol.

And actually, I think every character did experience love, even Quistis. On the first CD, she admits to Squall that she feels for him, and he just doesn't return it. So, in a small way, everone did experience it in one way or another.

That was a sad scene. I was gutted when I thought she was going to die, but then luckily she didn't!| ^^

I thought it was gonna be a replay of FFVII :(

Actually she thinks she loves/likes him.
Thats why she mimics him and invites squall to the place in the training zone.

But later on she realises that her feelings for squall were only maternal, ie she wanted to look after him

When Rinoa was close to death?

Not to sound sadistic, but I didn't mind too much. I thought she was a nuisance and like Contra Fates said, I liked her better when she was a mute. I purposely missed her the first time, hoping she would just go away so I wouldn't have to incorporate her character any longer.

It didn't remind me of FF7, Rinoa wasn't being sacrificed for saving the world or anything. The entire scene seemed awkward in general, but as she floated away I preferred her death in style of Kubrick's Odyssey. That was dope.

it was the most emotional part of any game in my life, in fact i loved the whole space section, even my favorite track is "residents" which is played in ragnorak when you fight the colored monsters

I was like "Ahh shit. Another save Rinoa mission"

I knew they wouldn't kill her because she was Squall love interest and someone had spoiled the surprsie for me by telling me :(

I didn't really mind Rinoa as a character, she wasn't particuarlly irratation. If anyone i didn't like Seifer cause he was over confident. Every battle i had with him he was like "i WILL win". I was just telling him to STFU and actually prove it. Then i laughed when i kept beating him.

Rinoa was both an annoying and interesting character to me. At times in the game, I really just wanted to jam a sock in her mouth or punch her in the face. Other times though, I liked seeing her relationship with Squall develop, and I thought she was a cute character for him to end up with. When the space scene came up, I wasn't sad because I knew they weren't going to kill off the person who made up half of the plot.
