What did you dislike about the game?

I hated *HATED* the chocobo sidequests.
I'm glad they were optional . =]
 
I'm not fond of FFVIII at all :/

But to make this short, my main complaints that ruined the game for me were:

A.) The junction system. I got the hang of it, and know how it works, it's just too much of a pain in the ass.

B.) Drawing. That got real old, real fast. Most of the time I didn't use magic unless it was 100% necessary cause I didn't feel like going back and drawing it from somewhere, and I didn't want my stats to drop. Ruined magic for me.

C.) Most of the characters.....I just truly did not enjoy the cast at all. Only two people I liked were Seifer and Zell. Rest just seemed un-important, boring, annoying.
 
I agree the cast was kind of shallow.
Squall had absolutely no personality at all.
If you ask me, the perfect personality belongs to Zidane. ^_^

I agree with you actually xD Zidane = <3

I found Squall tolerable (but still boring) at the beginning but...once he did a complete 180 in about the blink of an eye........eeesh. Wanted to throw a brick at him xD
 
Omg he was ALL over Rinoa's dick at the end of the game! He's such a wreckless teenage character! >__<

Rughhh! At least Cloud was able to maintain himself, and he had a REASON for being so melodromatic all the time.

Squalls crying was soooooooooooo unbearable. lol.
 
1. Boost. Using Boost to power up the GFs ruined my life. The worst part was when I'd get the power up to about 160 and suddenly the little red "x" appears over the finger, I've already pressed Square again, and the power has dropped all the way back to the bottom. No. Way.

2. Draw? I like the Junction system, so naturally I have to like Drawing magic to use for Junctioning, right? Eh. I like using magic on FF games (I think they have great magic effects), but because I was always trying to keep 100 spells for maximum Junction effects, I couldn't use magic that often. They tried to make up for it by allowing us to use GFs (and their abilities, such as Recover) repeatedly without a penalty, but I still miss the magic.

3. The Ragnarok segment. Wow, that was annoying.
 
Honestly, I've never fully played through 8. Back when it came out my friend and I would alternate buying games 'cause we couldn't afford them all the time. I bought and played 7, he watched, he bought and played 8, I watched. I'm definitely planning on snatching my friends copy and playing it for the sake of playing the last FF I have to play. =) (I do remember this being our least liked FF, but nothing paticular comes to mind)
 
i also think that whole ragnarok cuddling bit was annoying
 
(1) Tomb of the Unknown King i just hate that whole part its easyn as hell but argh its boring
(2) Monsters lvling up with you i dont like the idea of that just leave them be ( i know it makes it more realistic and all but nah )
 
i havent played forf awhile buyt it seemed to me it was just sourceress battles after sourceress
battles
 
1. Drawing was an absolute pain. HATED IT WITH A PASSION.
2. Boosting the power of the GF's also a pain.
3. Having to draw the magic to boost your stats.

Actually, the whole system was a big chore. I did like 8, I just HATED the system; it was the loooongest ever and should never return!!! Period!!!
:mad: :mad:
 
What I dislike was the whole flashback thing with Laguna. It confused the heck out of me!
 
I really dislike the story and characters in Final Fantasy 8. People seem to have trouble connecting to the characters in 12 but this is the one I probably found myself farthest from the characters. On the other hand I LOVE the system of the game: Draw, Junction and what not, I thought those things were done very well.
 
Squall was my problem. my friends and i beat the game together and we just laughed our a$$es off at him. hes the most ridiculous character along with cloud, in my opinion in Final Fantasy History.
Maybe he was lonely all the time cause they didnt have the little blue pill anymore!LOL! All he needed to do was contact Bob for the purple pill.
These two characters my friends and i found just hilarious.
I think a nice Straight Jacket for Squall and some Ridalin would do nicely for him, along with some Mountain Dew to cheer him up a little, eh!
 
I HATED the desert prison u end up in after the end of disc 1. up then down up then down that really pissed me off worst bit in viii by FAR.
 
The only problem with the game was the desert prison lol! I hated that level so much, still do to this day! Other then that, I love this game. Its my favourite Final Fantasy and I just love every thing about it ^^
