Alright the thread about women seems to be dieing and I'm sick of reading threads with nothing really to argue about in here.
So here's my shot. What do you think happens after VIII? Not what would be cool for VIII-2, what do you think is most likely.
Now the end of VIII left everyone all happy and stuff, but that seems to me to be a bit of a short lived thing. Here's why.
It's pretty impossible to change the present by altering the past, it's even less likely to do it by changing the future. So somehow in the not too distant future Ultimecia has to terrorise the planet and towns must become isolated. At some point Lunatic Pandora and the Ragnorok have to be moved, which to me suggests upcoming military action.
Laguna knew he had a son (though I'm not sure for how long), he never attempted to contact him though. It can't have been that hard given Ellone managed it and she was being hunted. Will Squall really be able to forgive the father who's absence resulted in him pretty much losing his childhood altogether?
Rinoa is a Sorceress, she's going to be feared in Esthar, and quite probably in the West too. Other than in Balamb how is she going to live a normal life? Will her alliance with Garden provoke more outside hostilities? There is a dark side to Sorceress' magic and only Squall and possibly her friends will be able to keep it from coming out.
Who is going to rule in Deling? I don't remember exactly, but wasn't Carroway involved in betraying Squall and co? Ultimecia may no longer have control, but the Galbadian army was in place well before the events of the game, and was probably not dead against the sort of attacks that took place in Dollet before Edea took control.
I'm not gonna give my thoughts yet because this post has gone on too long, so what do you all think?
