FF8 has been going through a bit of a resurgence lately where it does seem to be getting a fair amount of praise. It used to get slated though.

Final Fantasy 8. I loved it but apparently I was in the minority.

I still love it.

I also loved FF8. I’d be more interested in a remake of that one than 7 tbh.

Another FF8 enjoyer here! My husband and I got married on Halloween, so for the reception, I was Rinoa and he was Squall!
10/10 fantastic game!

8 is a very solid game. The issue is that it was always compared to 7 and 9

Which is funny since I’ve played all three of those for the first time recently, and FF7 doesn’t hold up in comparison to 8 and 9. But I can see at the time how 8 could be seen poorly in comparison to 7 and 9.
