Forums - Gaming - FINAL FANTASY VIII VS TALES OF VESPERIA, PICK YOUR WINNER.

I feel like it's the first "cinematic" game (well... I only played VII-XII... and only beat VIII lol. I sucked at gaming when I was younger... and treated all my discs like crap...). I guess after the success of VIII that's the natural step Square would want to take.

Final Fantasy VIII 9.0 at IGN.



VIII hands down, but Vesperia is one of the best non Final Fantasy RPGs ever made.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

Anyone here a supporter of Rinoa is Ultemecia theory? I'm sure that it's not what the writer's intended, but it'll make the story so much more cooler. If they ever did a remake, I'll even love it if they allowed a second playthrough (or allow us to load at a certain point in the game) where you can prevent Rinoa from becoming Ultemecia and ending the cycle.

Yes, I´m one.

 

If this theory would be true, story would be much, much better. And in potencional remake, make better characters, please. While Squall and Rinoa were OK (even if I don´t like this "doom and gloom" type of people), rest was.... for battle only. And please, please, change this retarded leveling system.

 

For topic: I´ll go with Vesperia, mostly because of thing I already wrote. For what I didn´t wote, I like anime-like style much more, than style of VIII.

Final Fantasy VIII: The Junction System is the best character progression system in the series, which is saying a lot. Story might fall apart some on disc III & IV, however the basic concept of fate stays intact.

this. FFviii is my first and favorite JRPG of all time and although I haven't played ToV, I just can't see it usurping Squall and Co.

Agreed.

Vesperia, I would also say, is easily the best Tales game too.
