Topic	FF8 - When you don't understand the junction system
ElatedVenusaur 04/04/21 5:04:50 PM #17:	SpaceBear_ posted... FF8 is an unfinished mess of a game. The Junction system was fine. Where's all the character development and stuff to do? Why is the world so empty? I mean, the Junction system is fine: it's just not explained very well and it kind of runs counter to how you would think you want to play i.e. you actually just want to stockpile as much of the junctioned spells as possible. Everything else is a mess though. The level-scaling makes the game miserable, the plot is exceptionally dumb, and the world is dull and empty. Really, FFVIII is the PSX FF that needs a remake. There's just enough there that's interesting that you can imagine a redo and a fleshing out could put it in the conversation with VII and IX. <cite>ElatedVenusaur posted [p:952464772] in FF8 - When...
