I thought the game was good but, personally I hated the whole GF, Draw, limit gauges and enemies leveling up as you did. They all annoyed me to hell :(

FF8 is the best ff game ive played in the series and these elements are what made the game great, i cant think of any thing i disliked about the game

I f*cking hated that Rinoa was taken from the party so often, it pissed me off. I also hated that you can't have Seifer. Hmm.. What else? I'm level 100 and Malboros can still own me. The Blue light in the undersea research lab. That Gilgamesh always appears to kill my prey so I don't get any items, Ap, XP, or anything. I think you should've just had gauges and used them to summon Gilgamesh or Odin.

I really wish that the other characters had more to do with the story. Selphie, Irvine, Quistis, and Zell were so over shadowed by Squall and Rinoa. They didn't even get to be in the ending FMV. Only in the credits.

I also got annoyed at how many times Rinoa needed to be rescued. It was like every third mission was Rescue Rinoa! They made her a bit too much into a damsel.

I agree, i think its better if the other chars have greater part,, but anyway, ff8 is still great as a whole.

FF8 was a great game but only thing i disliked was the junction system it just took long and made you focus more on changing your things. Overall its a great game and is my second favorite.

Gosh, I really love this game. Can't really think of any dislikes...but give me a second...um...

Ahh, the GF boost. You know, when you summon a GF, you can boost their attacks by pressing (I kinda forgot) square and start or select...? Well anyway, when I press rapidly on the square button WHILE the icon that indicates "don't press", the whole thing starts over...and that ticks me off.

But overall, I genuinely love this game.

My only beef with the game are the Draw and Junction system. The game eventually makes it so you have to Junction your spells to your stats to raise them up, and the idea of spells being generally weaker than normal physical attacks quickly turns the game into a button mash-athon. These may be silly reasons, but these are the two reasons why I hardly play this game (and why I cheat when I do).

The story and the scenery, the music and the action...the characters...
There's so much to love about this game...but call me an old-fashioned guy, but I love casting magic, and this game makes it a chore to collect and cast spells.

Perhaps the whole junctioning system for me?
