HOLY ****.

Okay, I had to post this, even though it makes no great contribution to the forum. But I was so shocked to see this.

----
Rinoa
"...Why?"

Squall
"The reason why you couldn't find me was because we haven't promised yet."

Rinoa
"Promised...?"

Squall
"I'll be waiting for you. If you come here, you'll find me. I promise."

Rinoa
"I'll be here, too. It's a promise!"
"Thanks, Squall!"
"Next time, we'll meet for sure!"
----
I was so shocked to see this, because I have seen the starting so many times, WOW. IT WAS SO GOOD OF A FEELING! I mean, you get it.


Did anyone get a similar reaction?

It's one of the things that make Squall and Rinoa the cutest couple ever.

I too must agree... n.n

[MAS82587]

i didnt think it was shocking, as much as it just made the beginning make a little more sense.

[Winter Nights]

No, it wasn't shocking. But it was a pretty sweet moment between them.

[Xaven]

No, it wasn't shocking. But it was a pretty sweet moment between them.

I agree.

Indeed.
sqall and rinoa have the best love story(i consider FF8 to be more of a love story than other FFs.)and also FF8s normal story rock and also im glad that the start scene isnt completely pointless.

[GooeyToast]

Great scene.

Cool intro.

Everything's good.

[Aurora_sword]

yes, this is one of the charm of FF8
i love it

[crazybayman]

Definitely my favorite.

Although I think I got more enjoyment out of FF1 way back in the day of the NES. Entirely because I was a kid though.

But anyways, now FF8 is my favorite game ever. Hands down.

Yes, they are cute. Too bad Rinoa becomes Ultimecia....

[Aurora_sword]

was there ever any reason for that or even if there's a proof of that?
so far i heard it was just a theory/speculation

[GooeyToast]

It's an on-going debate.

[Ciretho]

I loved the FF8 story. Very sweet. Also about the rinoa-ultimecia thing, I don't like it personally. That and it doesn't make enough sense to work. First of all they have different accents (I know that sounds wierd considering it's text but you can see the difference). That and wouldn't ultimecia of noticed Squall? Unless that was how she became ultimecia by not meeting Squall. But then it gets all confusing and makes me start to ramble so I'll stop. I still don't like it though. Time dillation confuses me.

I deleted some posts because people were having off topic conversations in the thread. Please use pms for that.

The flower field scene is the key feature that links - and explains - the beginning and end of the game. Great bit of storytelling, actually.

the story of my first girl (renee, almost the same) was exactly the same principles of squall and rinoa... 'cept i didnt go into outta space or nuthin' but pretty much the same.

(She came into my life, i said "just stay near me", she couldnt keep away from me, i shun her, she pushes forward, i retreat. In the end I end up telling her the reason why i wont go out with her is cause "most of my childhood ppl i was close to left me to be alone, so i stay away from ppl so i wont get hurt again... but then YOU come along and i can't help it...)


In the game it seems all nice and cool but in reality... damn it sucks...

ahhhh well beer heals all wounds...

[Everwarrior]

I always thought it would be Squall saying "Why...?" when I was playing through the game the first time. And yes, the storytelling of this game is great.

[Armisael]

I wasn't that shocked but it was so romantic!I almost cried!^_^

[Dreddz]

bit cheesy in my eyes

[Rini]

For the first time it felt funny to see those same lines, but then again it bound the beginning with the end, just like someone said earlier. Sweet ^^
And the next time it felt funny again, but in a good way, I just can't explain it. Like a dejá-vu or something. hih.

might wanna get that looked at.
