Damn points of no return! Share your stories about things you may have missed ingame before this moment.

Probably a ton of sidequests I didn't know existed like Zell and the Library girl, the lake mystery, or saving the girl from being hit by a train. Hell just going back to Dollet was something I never did the first few playthroughs.

Fucking time compression :argh:

It's been so long since I've done that, but probably one of the more obscure side quests.

The CC Card Quest in Balamb and getting Doomtrain.

Wish that they gave us a warning before heading into Pandora's box thing.

Once I forgot to get Odin and Doomtrain.
Another time I forgot to Shumi Village.

Yeah I don't recall there being a girl that needs rescuing, I know there is an occult magazine that mentions there was a train and that hints towards Doomtrain, but not a girl that needs saving.

Found this, depicting the scene rather nicely: Let's Play Final Fantasy VIII! -Part 70- Island Closest to Hell & Dollet Sidequest - YouTube (http://youtu.be/fPfWBTGgdes?t=2m5s)

Dang I never thought about checking that part of Timber again. That is amazing!

I don't think I knew about it either. Amazing that I'm still finding out new things about this game over a decade since I first played bit!

For me it was the library girl side quest as I often forget about it.

I've just started a playthrough (my second) on my Vita while I'm doing a bit of travelling. I don't think I've heard of any of these three sidequests. Are they only available later in the game or can they be completed at any time?

I know about the CC Group sidequest.
