spamming renzokuken is literally less boring than attack spamming in 7

it's just too smart for you.
sorry, kiddo. maybe FF mystic quest is more your speed?

It's the same ATB shit though.

Its actually pretty cool.

Draw-Casting is situational blue magic that adds an element of randomness and strategy to every fight in the game.

Interactive limit breaks add a level of action combat that was taken out of VII after being added in VI.

The junction system provides unparalled levels of build customization, even going beyond what materia was capable of. Stuff like elemental attack/defense was built right into the game.

And level scaling promotes mastery of the game's systems over mindless grinding, which is a problem that plagues most of the FF series. If you can't beat a boss, you don't stand a better chance by running around in circles and mashing X outside their room for an hour. You have to learn how the game works and rebuild your characters.

Absolutely based taste
As someone playing for the first time, I feel like the story is the only major weakness. It's just so inconsistent and oddly presented. I'm on disc 3, and suddenly there's a huge floating rock out of nowhere and we're going to space and the moon cries monsters and Rinoa is floating around in space for 10 minutes before being rescued by Squall's love? It was all a bit too much.

It's a dumb system. Either you don't get it and you gimp yourself or you figure it out and you become an overpowered god. There is no middle ground.

It's literally the only FF with a good story. I don't mean ''book good'', I mean in relation to video game standards. It leaves the right spots open to interpretation

>suddenly
lol

I would like this battle system with a better story and better characters especially if they're changing story for remakes now this is the one that needed it

>It's literally the only FF with a good story

not really.
>MC gets ruined by a random 180 change in character between discs
>asspull real badguy you have to waste an entire disc to get to

>renzokuken in real time action combat
>you are basically exceed-ing each hit

just dropped it around 3 hours in, fuck having to spend like 5 turns spamming attack to beat a random encounter with enemies that can't do anything more than chip damage to my characters
ff2 was more enjoyable than this idiocy

Well, I disagree but its fine. I'm literally too jaded to argue

name a FF with a better story
dont say X

they'll never make a ff8 remake because then they would have to explain what the gun part of the gunblade actually does.

I've been thinking about how to alter the battle gameplay specifically. Other than boosting the fuck out of spell power, one of my ideas was that limit breaks would not be triggered by crisis levels, instead they would be character specific commands available independent of junctions much like Attack. They would also scale with levels, but they'd have to be rebalanced to avoid broken shit like Zell's 500K damage special. The other thing is that Guardian Forces would not be on a timer, instead they stay there shielding the normal health until the player either dismisses them or uses their summon attack. GFs would also provide unique defense buffs like elemental absorption or Triple status while active.

They fucking put the house monsters in FF7, they can do anything even retcon everything people will buy their shit anyway.

Hallway simulator? as long as the fan service is in, it'll sell

The same faggots that shit up the remake are responsible for FF8. Why do you think the companies designs went to shit post 7? FF9 was the last "real" FF Game.

>name a FF with a better story
4
6
9
12

It feels the same to me with minor differences

>FF9 was the last "real" FF Game.
FF9 is slow, boring and way too on rails. But hey, it looks good. Yawn

>d-don't c-criticize FF8!!! I'm l-literally S-Squall!
Whatever.

The FF game that should have gotten a remake, fix the junction system, Rinoa less annoying and make the story more straightforward and you're onto a winner

>FF9 is the best FF

reminder that ff8 is the worst ff game

I wish I was. The other night Selphie told me if I kys myself I could go to Balamb play cards with them

>reminder that ff8 is the worst ff game

nah, XV stole that title away from VIII

I'm playing that shit right now after quiting on disc 1 for like 4 times already
Is running away from random battles really the right thing? Also, what's the best early magic to junction? I got 100 fire on strength but I'm still garbage
I just want to get sorta OP so that I can finally get this trash game over with

Just take quistis card, make triple, junction it, and then destroy everyone with one hit for the rest of the game

>Is running away from random battles really the right thing
If you think you can't beat a level 100 Bite Bug with its insurmountable 2510 HP, probably.
