Ah. A refreshing choice. I personally was so disappointed by FF8 after the revolutionary FF7, but it has grown on me over the years. I still hate the boss theme. Worst ever in an FF game. Most of the soundtrack is depressing in fact. I didn't and don't like the draw system. The romance seemed weak. However, I came to like the complex junction system after I learned it the second time through. I do like the ending song and final boss tracks. The challenge is pretty good. Overall, I give it a 7 out of 10. 

My first final fantasy on my first console I ever played and I replay it one or two years, no game surpassed it since then and I don't think any game will achieve that

Yeah, agreed, Final Fantasy 8 was an excellent game because of the amount of freedom the game gave. The draw skill was optional, and really only needed to be used to get certain summons; otherwise I never used it, it is much easier crafting enemy drops into magic. I don't even know why people who hate the draw system insist on using it instead of crafting; particularly since the crafting gets better magic anyway.

On the music front, FF8's music is as good as the FF series has ever been, and it's not even close. There are only a handful of tracks (Searching for Friends in FF6, Anxious Heart in FF7) in other games that even compare.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
