It’s stupid, was likely all thought of in one evening where the higher ups were on multiple mind altering drugs, badly written, mechanically broken, the romance between the two main characters is forced, Squall’s development in the middle of the game is sudden and random, no one else gets any development, its a complete waste of budget and Uematsu, Nomura, Amano and everyone else that worked on its FMV’s, graphics and environments talent, yet in spite of it all I can’t say i hate it, not in a guilty pleasure way, fuck that term, but the game feels so genuine in its stupidity, as in it buys the shit its peddling, that it becomes entertaining to go through, and I can’t say I didn’t enjoy the incredible environmental and musical works, pieces like The Man with the Machine Gun, (especially) Ride On, Force Your Way, Eyes on Me and many more I’m sure i neglected to mention, being able to move while FMV’s were being played is something i still marvel at, it’s incredible, the FMV’s themselves are also very well done and I especially liked the ending sequence one where it got all wobbly and fucked up. Insane game.
