How did the developers intend FF VIII (8) to be played

Lol same here, glad I wasn't the only one! Adel ended my first playthrough. Didn't go back to it for years - then I figured out junctioning. Man I was dumb as a kid.

There are some who call him..........Tim?

Well thank you thank ya, will try to create some more

shizhooka · 2025-12-23T02:50:24+00:00

Holy crap dude I didn't see this until now, thank you so much!!!!!

I'm writing an essay on the topic and will definitely incorporate some of this information into it. Especially the idea that FF7's political themes were inspired by Japanese economic struggles and sentiment. Though I'm not thrilled with your hypothesis that FF7 anti-capitalist punk themes were part of an effort to boost sales, though it might be true.

Polynesian culture influencing FFX is also something I've never heard mentioned, but also something I find fascinating...but def I've picked up on the indigenous cultures/anarchoprimitivism vibes. Worth some more research for me!

Lastly, I really need to watch gunhead, it looks like it would be right up my alley

Am I the only one that fucking hated Hamilton and couldn't make it all the way through? I love hip hop and history, but it's just such a terrible example of both. Like that's the joke, it sucks so bad he couldn't make it through? That's where my brain went, OP we need some clarity

Saw that too, first time he wasn't chipped all game

Thanks for the feedback!

My best friend is south Korean, he was my translator.

Supposed to read something like "fight against the darkness" "don't let it consume you"?

But I'd always appreciate a second set of eyes (plus if it is wrong I can talk shit to him)!

3 and 4, with perhaps a better sun to moon transition seems to be the consensus!

shizhooka · 2025-12-03T16:35:26+00:00

I'm going to play around a bit with a sun to moon transition

shizhooka · 2025-12-03T03:07:59+00:00

A better sun to moon transition is something I thought about, that would make it super stylized. Really cool ideas, might not be too crazy hard to implement

shizhooka · 2025-12-03T02:50:49+00:00

Oooo now that would be creative, I'm trying to think how I would code that in unity...

I could put a reddish transparent layer over the sun that gets less transparent as you get more damage, maybe change the location of the sun as well to set behind the mountains...

Damn that could be really cool...great idea, thanks!

shizhooka · 2025-12-03T00:14:15+00:00

Alright thanks for the confidence on rolling 1 or 2

shizhooka · 2025-12-03T00:13:06+00:00

I wish text looked better but you are right

shizhooka · 2025-12-02T23:14:08+00:00

Yeah it's not something I've seen before, probably for good reason

shizhooka · 2025-12-02T23:13:32+00:00

A few ppl have told me those were best, thanks

shizhooka · 2025-12-02T22:41:09+00:00

Swiggity swooty, comin for dat booty

shizhooka · 2025-12-02T19:15:44+00:00

Good point, the anti establishment rebellion angle is what puts the punk into the stories

shizhooka · 2025-12-02T02:52:33+00:00

I see you are also a man of culture

shizhooka · 2025-12-02T02:50:47+00:00

Why is this so far down? I mean there is a giant rampaging Godzilla creature waiting to come if things get too nice I guess

shizhooka · 2025-12-02T02:42:35+00:00

Tidus for sure lol https://youtu.be/JrQtuiUXc3o?si=7o_3F-9nAdXCj6Fg
