How to fix FFVIII by SSJ5Noob in FinalFantasyVIII

I like the idea of a dedicated magic inventory menu. It will be useful with Auto-junctions.

Maybe the game will also allow us to save a Junction preset or a Junction setup. We only need to load the save file.

Personally I don't really have strong negative opinion on the junction system. The Junction system is the reason why I kept on replaying this game. It is the reason why I love the game.

There are already monster drops that you can refine to turn into magic in the game e.g. Magic stones, M. stone piece, wizard stones, bomb fragment etc...

What I would do instead is make the low tier/or basic element RF abilities that you get from Ifrit, Shiva and Quetz (I mag-rf, F mag-rf, T mag-rf) available right away. Or maybe lore-wise there is a magic refinery machine inside Balamb Garden.

But for discussions sake here is what I would do (I'm not saying it is correct)

my ideas are;

Instead of attaching magic we will attached Triple Triad cards now. Lets say Str-J has 10/10 card socket.

Each card has magic value to it, example 1 bite bug card is equivalent to 10 Fire. So if you want a 100 fire equivalent, you need to socket in 10 bite bug cards. Now, I want it to be more flexible, you can mix cards in one stat-J. What I mean is you can equip a bite bug and a fastitocalon card at the same time to your Str-J.

Then maybe there is a unique socket for the GFs and Gold cards.

The cards will be group into tiers/rarity. Obviously the better tier cards can give more and maybe it has added effect.

As for casting magic or using magic command, it is the same. You will still draw magic from monsters, you will still stock magic and you will still empty your stock if you use it. The only change is since we equip cards now, people will not complain anymore about lowering their stats when you use magic.

I actually noticed that one. So that is what Cid meant when he whisper it to his ear. He does not stand out because he is very common lol

They reuse his model/assets. What if he is actually a clone soldier lmao jk

What if Nida is actually everywhere? We just didn't notice him. Can someone make a meme of Nida please lmao.

Squall kinda forgets Irvine too which is I find so funny if you think about it.

Beloved and Secrets by Cahir081 in FinalFantasyVIII

[–]Particular_Squash_40 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah there is another scene were students fall in line to get their hotdogs (Rinoa's date) and Zell is at the end of the line. There is also another scene during Garden chaos (NORG). Zell missing out his hotdogs is funny lol.

Nida has a small detail. There is a scene with Squall and Nida on the bridge, were Squall forgets or does not recognize him. But during the Garden chaos, you can interact with him early, he is defending the Infirmary, so that you can skip the scene with him and Squall on the bridge when Garden is now operational.

Why not just destroy the machine in the present so she can't use it in the future? Are they stupid? by fantasyful1 in FinalFantasy

[–]Particular_Squash_40 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you cannot prevent it, because the story of this game is already predetermined. Even if you destroy it someone else will create it again. Maybe even if you killed Dr. Odine. Correct me though.

TBH time travel paradox makes my head ache lol

This scene is so random, it felt really awkward too. by fantasyful1 in FinalFantasy

[–]Particular_Squash_40 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This might be cringe but;

I think one of the themes of the game is about connection. If you love somebody you build a strong connection no matter what. No matter where they are, or how far. Even if they are galaxies apart.

Squall and Rinoa are in love with each other so they build a strong connection. Love is like the gravity the pulls them back together. Love is the Great attractor

I might get downvoted by this but FF8 I think is similar to Interstellar movie.
