    FFVIII : Love It Or Hate It?

    Don't get me wrong, FF8 isn't that bad of a game, because I've found myself playing it through a few times... but when put beside other FF games like FF, FF7, FF6, it really is reduced to a tedious and sour pile of turd. The simple fact is, if you have to "force" a game on yourself just to...

    Help Same rule is spread to seemingly every region. Is it impossible to abolish now?

    Didn't realize you could abolish a shared rule. According to all the FAQ's I've read, the region has to not have the rule you're trying to abolish. I have no idea why you'd like Same. Your opponent can win on a lucky combo drop at any time and there's nothing you can do to avoid it except play...

    Help Same rule is spread to seemingly every region. Is it impossible to abolish now?

    It had been years since I last played this game. I didn't remember until I got to the end that you could keep denying a rule mix until they played by their native rules. So now I can't find a single region that "Same" hasn't spread to and it's game-breaking for me. I hate that rule just as...

    Help Did I miss out on Doomtrain and St-Def items?

    If I did, it's a real huge kick in the testes, because I really need "Status Defx4" & "Forbid Med-RF". I'm on Disc 3 and I'm at the part where we're going back to Esthar to rescue Shana... I... I mean Rinoa [Haha, see what I did there?]. Anyways, puns and RPG references aside, I also need to...

    FFVII : Love It or Hate It?

    To me? -Best Final Fantasy game there is -Best RPG of it's kind [Among games like Legend of Dragoon, Shadow Madness, etc.] -Second best game ever made only bested by Diablo 2 [I'm just a D2 junkie of 10+ years :D]

    Monster HP adjusted by Materia equipped?

    No... Safer Sephiroths HP is definitely adjusted. In the No Materia run, I kill him before he can even cast Supernova [About 9-11 hits]... but on my regular saves, if I equip and cast KotR against both Jenova and Him [Exception being Mime, but I don't do that pussy s***t], then the fight lasts...

    Help Triple Triad: Abolishing rules?

    I don't want to beat him for Seifer... I got Seifer on disc one. I just want to be able to face him and Edea for their other valuable cards. EDIT, I got it figured out, thanks to this MUCH more accurate [and sophisticated] explanation...

    Help Trouble comprehending the junction system

    I have to disagree based on my experiences so far... this game has been equally as easy as FF7 considering that I'm not quite adept at using the junction system yet... it's not actually more difficult, it's just a lot more complex and tedious... and I HATE tedious lol. Your explanation was...

    FFVIII : Love It Or Hate It?

    Hate it so far. I'm on the 2nd disc and I can hardly find the will to continue playing it, it's almost unbearable. I see everyone complaining about characters... it's not even the characters or the story that bothers me. 1. I hate the Junction system with a passion 2. I hate how every...

    Help Trouble comprehending the junction system

    I get the general basics of how it works... but there is SO much to it that I don't know for sure if there are things I'm forgetting, neglecting, missing... etc. Also, I'm not sure I understand how the progression relation or rather, synergy, works between GF's and Characters. So to...

    How do you feel about... The new FF VII?

    I think the character booster should only unlock once you've beaten the game once [Just like on Diablo 2 where Hardcore mode doesn't unlock until you defeat Diablo at least once]. That would give older players a tool to experiment and enjoy the game is other various ways without killing the...

    Red XIII's father........

    Actually, it's not very similar to the Cosmo Canyon theme at all... it just shares a couple chords in the progressions. The theme you're talking about is called Great Warrior.
