I'm still stuck on a part in the third disc. Well.. "stuck" I guess. When you get there, I'll let you know hwat the fuck part I'm at where I don't want to advance the story because I need some character cards from people who won't play anything but fucking Random. At least Triple Triad had a rules system, unlike the ridiculous FFIX thing. :rolleyes:
What I feel about FF8 overall is that it had a shitload of ideas and angles that were very new and innovative. A lot of features and gameplay elements that had never been tried before, and still haven't been since (even the story was very untraditional in interesting ways). And while every last bit of it sounds very cool when you read the booklet, or you looked at previews in magazines and shit.... maybe about
half of it was done well. Like the way the enemies level up with you? Sounds cool, but it really just prevents you from being able to keep a balanced party, because you're simply not allowed to do any field juicing. Or the SeeD rank thing.

"Oh sweet, something that forces the player to remain on task, and not dick around leveling up their assholes...

oh, no nevermind. It only pays attention to whether you're having battles, and not at all to whether the party members are behaving properly.......................

cool!"
Hey, remember in stupid Charlie's Angels, when Drew Barrymore landed in a house with two kids playing multiplayer FF8?
