This year marks the game's 25th anniversary and what better way to celebrate my favorite Final Fantasy than with a full let's play of the game? FF8 is a JRPG which most closely resembles Final Fantasy VII (7) namely in that both games feature pre-rendered background environments, heavy uses of CG cutscenes, and fully rendered 3d models. Unlike FF7, FF8 uses realistically proportioned characters. A more dramatic departure from previous Final Fantasy titles comes in the form of the draw and junction systems whereby individual charges of spells must be extracted from enemies, and can be 'equipped' to certain stats to provide stat bonuses. Many people have criticized the game for the tedium of the draw system and the convolutedness of junctioning, but I believe drawing to be far less tedious than traditional JRPG grinding, and the junction system is far less convoluted than it's made out to be. Junctioning serves as the game's mechanical backbone, and through proper use of this system the game can be broken wide open. Final Fantasy VIII also features everybody's favorite Final Fantasy mini-game/collectible card game: Triple Triad! This playthrough aims to explore in-depth all of the game's systems including various ways to utilize Guardian Forces, Triple Triad, and Junctioning to break the game. While this will not be a 100% completion walkthrough of the game, I will be showing off an enormous amount of what FF8 has to offer in this playthrough. Additionally, this playthrough will feature the collection of every single Guardian Force. ►All Playlists: http://www.youtube.com/user/TheScribeD/videos?view=1&flow;=grid ►Playlist for Let's Play Demon's Souls 100% / Platinum Playthrough: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLr9RPfA4jb6LhO0cVtZm3-G5FHSdKsmxy ►Playlist for Let's Play Resident Evil 4 HD ft.
