Final Fantasy VIII Sequel

[Kuzavio]

Why hasn't there been talk of a Final Fantasy VIII sequel, I've been on about it since 00' soon after finishing the game and I think it would be TOTAL slashif Square/ Square-Enix really sat down and made one.

I've thought about it having a basic storyline like Seifer (this dude does not get credit) being the main character 15 years after FF VIII and he's some Aaron look alike bad ass who after being disgraced by the sorcerer fiasco has taken refuge at Tear's point where everyone grew up and it's now it's own verion of a SeeD garden. Here Zell and Seifer (odd couple) help "Headmaster" Laguna Loire train the orphans in preporation of a new threat, The Sorcerer Odin. You see when Seifer was blinded by hate and he "killed" Odin, Seifer's evil entity brushed the almighty Gaurdian Force which brought to life the true nature of Odin. Ultimately, the story leads to the origin of the Gaurdian Forces and will change the way we view them as a whole, we understand Ultimecia's true intentions for wanting to compress time and we meet Seifer's adopted orphan daughter Questa, the Garden's first orphan (Seifer found her with in the Shumi village) who is half human half moomba. She is the anwser to alot of the games questions and plays one of the biggest roles in the game.

Main usable characters will be of course;
Seifer (a softer but still determined version, he's "matured" so to speak)
Duran (Headmaster Sid's son and Questa's best friend)
Questa (Seifer's daughter and direct pupil to Zell so yeah she can kick ass and is really pretty, move aside Rinoa)
Micholl pro-nounced mi-shoul (a dark traumatized ninja like orphan having survived the Trabia Garden bombing 15 years earlier)
Raijin (except not as silly this time because Fujin is dead)
Arialle (a SeeD that had ben lost in time after her and her companions fight with Ultimecia which they lost, oh and the other woman in Seifer's life realisticaly she's 70 plus years old man she i also the other woman is Seifer's life so YES there is a love story)
IRVINE KINEAS (IT WOULD BE A SIN LEAVING HIM OUT )!!!!

It's easy to tell I've thought about it for a while and I'm trying to think like a fan with a little twist though. This would be far better spin off sequel as compared to the cheesy Final Fantasy X "flower power" sequel.

If you're feeling me by all means let me know. Hate it or love it I want to know what you think, but Final Fantasy VIII cannot just end there

What do you think about a sequel to the game?

OMG
ARE U RELATED TO FUTURE ESTHAR!!!!!!!!!!!!???????????????????

**backs away in horror...**






and there has been gossip about a sequel but it died quickly

[Trumpet Thief]

chaos: As much as I would love a sequel, FFVIII was wrapped up perfectly. I wouldn't want to see an FFVIII: 2 with new characters, new storyline, etc.

Rubedo: After all, FFVIII ended with a happy ending with everyone having a huge party. Maybe a remake someday, but a sequel: no.

[The Second Advent]

there's no point to a sequal. it was finished perfectly and Square realized this. There could have been a sequal if they didn't involve a future sorceress, but they did, and too fight another sorceress after they fight the most dangerous one would seem idiotic and pointless, not to say they were happily ever after. Just that their battles after Ultimecia were not as hard. If i made any sense, someone give me a cookie.

[ShaunOfShadou]

Sounds like an okay idea for a fangame, but not good enough for a sequel, imo.

[GunbladeMaster]

remember
time goes in a loop in the ff8 world because of ulti
a sequel would be the exact same thing

[Skyblade]

Everything is not wrapped up fine, as I pointed out in several past threads about sequels.


Anyway, I think that the most likely plot for a sequel (rather than a prequel), would follow directly from the original and it would consist of trying to correct the temporal instability that Squall's actions caused. Namely, the paradox of SeeD.

Since Edea got the idea from Squall, and Squall got the idea from Edea, it forms a paradox. The information has to come from somewhere. That being the case, there is a definite possibility that a number of unstable dimensions came into being due to this oversight. The one they seemed to be in at the end, with no Ulti and a "happily ever after" ending, but probably also one in which the idea never existed in the first place, so that there was nothing to stop Ulti, and she rules that timestream. Now, with all the dimensions and the various space/time anomalies trying to settle, the two worlds are competing for existance. But both are unstable, due to the paradoxical nature of their existance. So the heroes must not only find a way to stop the worlds from tearing each other to pieces, but also a way to correct the instability inherent in their own dimension's existance.

Yeah, heroes can do some pretty stupid things sometimes.

People never read my posts. :grumble:

[Kamrusepas]

Seifer's daughter? Ehhhh.......

I love the man, but I would stay far from a game with his daughter as the main character....

[boys from the dwarf]

i hate it.

[raskerino]

FF8 is love, but there is no need for a sequel. Especially one where everyone is related and you know about at the start of the game (it usually a bad plot device) hough I do like how it never explicitly said Laguna was Squall's dad. Having the characters being the sons and daughters of characters from the main game comes up most in bad fanfics, it's not a good idea, and it seems to be the onne you're basing this around. Your other idea is a matured Seifer (who's character you seem to like) but I didn't see Raijin and Fuijin, what's with that? Seifer relies on others to support him or a dream of something greater, and he definitely needs the support of Fuijin and Raijin. And one last point on Seifer, in the ending with that fishing scene you see him and them, and it's just so perfect for those characters to be in that scene. Seifer failing but laughing and enjoying himself. Raijin getting pushed into the water but definitely having fun and fitting the group, and Fuijin pushing him in trying to make Seifer happy, it's a group I wouldn't want to see split up because I love how it works within the game. And you want to take that away? for shame. It also concluded Seifer perfectly so I don't think try to add to it makes any sense except in a fanfic.


i hate it.

True story.

That post, was in NO WAY similar to the foolishness posted by FE. Don't insult the guy by saying he reminds you of FE. His post was coherent, and it wasn't making up fiction about the current plot found in FFVIII. Its something entirely different.

Anyways, I like the idea. However, a sequel to FFVIII is incredibly unlikely, in the near future, anyway.

Very interesting plot, much better than the "OMG LETS MAEK A GAEM ABOUT LAGUNA AND SORCERESS WAR LOL"

I like the idea of a quest with a calmer, more "mature" Seifer as the hero in the future. He'd be a great character to do a new storyline on. I'd love to see that battle system return, and something similar to junctioning, though not identical.

That misses the point of a sequel. The idea of a sequel means showing what happens AFTER the Garden Party in the Ending. We'd only see the same thing again if you stayed behind with little Squall at the orphanage during the ending, which clearly cannot be defined as a sequel.

So no, a sequel would NOT be the exact same thing.

Although it's a good idea(sounds somewhat similar to FFV with all the parallel worlds and so on), there is no paradox in the origin of the phrase SeeD. You see, there are two ways to think of time in FF8:

1) A time that cannot be changed(ie. static time). It's impossible to change the past, and the future exists in the same way that the past does. In this type of time(the type I find the best interpretation of time in FF8) asking where the phrase SeeD came from is as meaningless as asking what the 'starting' point of a circle is. It's not the answer presents a paradox, it's that the question itself has no meaning.

2) A time that CAN be changed(ie. dynamic time). In a time where the past can be changed, it's clear enough that there must have been an 'original' time(because when Ultimecia goes back to the orphanage in the ending, she must have been changing something) which would naturally contain the origin of the phrase SeeD. In this time it's not there is no answer, it's that we can't ever know the answer.

This is discussed in more detail in the FAQ I've linked to several times on this forum.

On a final note, your idea could easily be based on something else and still work, but I think it's wrong to say the origin of SeeD presents a paradox.

Someone read my post! Yay!!!

I understand your point, but I hate the idea of fate. It is totally inaccurate, and while the game designers may have intended for it to be present in this game, I would rather not view it that way. Sticking total BS (which is what fate is) into a game is a good way to ruin it, and I like this game too much to see it ruined. So don't talk to me about fate.

La di da di da, I can't hear you...

[Sir Bahamut]

XD

Yeah, that's right, you're the one who REALLY dislike fated :p
Don't worry though, I'm not about to twist the thread into something not particularly relevant to the topic at hand. So you got lucky this time ;)

[Skyblade]

I really dislike all ridiculously incorrect ideas. Fate does not exist. Period. It is a completely illogical idea, and it has not once stood up to my arguments.

Now then, assuming for a moment that fate does not exist, what do you think of my idea?

[Sir Bahamut]

I think it's a very interesting offset, although there'd have to be some sort of villain trying to disrupt things(I'm tempted to say a return of the Void from FF5, but I don't think that'd go too well =P), or things would quickly lose focus.

The prospect of travelling to the alternate world sounds good too, and seeing what things would be like, although if Ultimecia had her will, she'd have compressed and absorbed all of that world(more correctly all of that 'time and space') so there might not be anything to see =P
Although assuming she recreates some sort of hellish dimension where she rules, and everyone are her slaves, I can easily imagine a great setting for the last dungeon/castle.

Oh, and I'm not going to rise to the bait about the fate thing. I don't know what arguments you've had thrown against you, but the discussion just isn't relevant to this topic anyway. Besides, it doesn't look like any amount of discussion will budge you :p

Well, I was assuming that Ulti would be the villain. Once she finds out about the other worlds, I don't think she'd be content to stay on her own. She would try to absorb them all.

I think it's a cool idea, anyway.

...You're not? Aww... That's no fun. You're right, no amount of argument would budge me, but I was hoping that I might budge you.

[Sir Bahamut]

Haha, stupidly forgot to think about Ultimecia being the villain :rolleyes2
Well, that could work, I guess, although I don't know how much more they could add to Ultimecias character in order to keep her interesting...

As for fate, I'm perfectly fine with having the discussion some other topic, but trailing off into a long debate on fate in a topic about FF8 Sequels seems a bit off-topic.

Well, from what we've seen in FFVIII, they have a lot of leeway to do what they want with her character. It's not like they are going to ruin a well developed character: There is practically no character development for Ulti, so they could put in quite a bit. I trust them enough to think that they could do that.

As to another thread for a discussion on fate: If you make it, I will come.

[Christmas]

How about the Biggs and Wedges as the main characters of the sequel.............

[GunbladeMaster]

what a boring sequel :bored:

[tootncartman]

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've been waiting to say this: Square was originally going to make an FF8 sequel but they gave up on the idea. Shame on you who call yourselves Final Fantasy 8 fans. You can see the preview for the game that was never made on some guys fan site.. Google it. In the clip we see Seifer summon a Moogle onto an enemy.

Im a happy, happy man.

[tootncartman]

Heres the site: Its called FF8 Gaiden.http://members.fortunecity.com/butterflysedge/downloads.html#ff8gai

[*~Angel Wing~*]

I agree with most of the people in this thread...THERE SHOULD NOT BE A SEQUEL. As others have said, there isn't enough substance to create a new game. And I'm sorry Kuzavio, but that whole story thing you had was awful.:eep: If I worked for Square and was a producer of this game, I would be insulted. I would think you were trying to make fun of FF8. :mad2: If they were going to do anything with it, I would think a remake would be most likely. I actually think that a prequel would be pretty cool. You could play as Laguna, and find out what happened to Raine and the stuff with Ellone...yeah, that would be cool...:D

[G SpOtZ]

sounds like a fanfic that you should write.

and as for that vid, tootncartman, are you sure that was an unmade sequel? everything looks so similar to that of ffviii, that i would think it's just a movie that somebody messed around with. it's possible to modify the video of a regular battle with tonberries, change the characters and change the battle area. i find it hard to be believe that it was an actual unmade sequel.

ok that is the most amazing story line for i squel iv ever herd that just blows mine away totally

[FFGuevara]

Maybe a sequel where you find out who Ultimciea is. If it's Rinoa then you sorta find out why she became evil. My opinion it's ether that or a prequel about laguna.

[GunbladeMaster]

but there is just no point
doing a sequel like that would be like doing an entire game on how Selphie was doing at Trabia Garden before she transfered.

Do movies make a prequel of a character?
Take Lord of the Rings for example
We dont know much about Sauron other than he is this evil guy who got power hungry
THERE! thats it. We dont need to know anymore. Because that is just enough info

we know everything that happened with Laguna before we met him
because the game breifly explains it in the dreams of him
so doing a prequel would just be combining all the dreams in FF8
which is pointless

Like if some guy's from the future go back in time, trying to kill Rinoa so Squall defend's her and in the process gets killed trying to protect Rinoa, then she feels guilty and pissed so she then becomes evil.

[GunbladeMaster]

well in Star wars we had a good story as we got to see why Anakin became Darth Vader

[Shiny]

Nope. We already saw what happened with the FF10-2 thing. I think the only Final Fantasy that could truely make a wonderful sequel would be FF7 and most of the others should be re-made.

[GunbladeMaster]

that sounds better

[xX.Silver.Wings.Xx]

Just remake it it would be more appreciate that way a, sequel would suck.

[Kuzavio]

:mad2: How do you people call yourselves fans cause right now all I can see is fear. First off, the Fate thing. I believe in fate and also believe you can change the outcome of things before they pass. Next, you call yourselves fans but you you're too afraid to see a sequel because it ould spoil the game for YOU and that's just down right selfish. People said the same thing about Star Wars but the past three movies have raked in more fans than the firts three. Times change and to me that's what final fantasy VIII failed to do, it wanted things to be same with the whole fate thing and time loops. There is always room for questionning and if you area real fan you'd want to know why the characters became the way they are. Get over yourselves dudes.

:mad: My reason for giving Seifer a daughter and making him the main character are as follows. Seifer wasn' really a good person and all he ever wanted was to be on top and you can clearly get that from the game. As we all should know, if you want to be at the top, someone has to fall and Seifer really made alot of people fall in his race for king of the ring. I gave him a daughter because every hero needs a reason to fight or keep going and without that you have nothing. The daughter is his reason for wanting to "change" and become a better person, call it cheesy but give the dude a break.

:confused: Lastly where the hell do the GF's in FF:VIII come from, FF:VII explains they're creatures connected to the Ancuents, original inhabitants of the planet, I still haven't played FF:IX cause I heard to many bad stories bought it and when I did play it I was totaly put of getting it and FF:X has the best explination going on about how they're some dude who died ages ago, some sacrifeicing themslves and thus becoming Aeons.

GFs are regular monsters but Dr Odine harnassed their power through Para-magic and made them into the GFs we have today

[Christmas]

It is pretty strange how people said the sequel won't be good cause they see Final Fantasy X 2.

Let's just say Final Fantasy X-2 is a failure, will Square be so stupid to make another sequel that is exactly like Final Fantasy X-2 so that we can complain about it again? You can't base on one failure of a sequel to jump to the conclusion that all sequels won't be good.

Anyway, it is what inside FF X-2(the story...etc)that might make you think it's not good not because it bear the name "X-2".

Lastly, the sequel will be better(if there is one...) with http://forums.eyesonff.com/user/avatar/avatar15004_11.gif in it....

[Kuzavio]

QUESTION What would you gain from the remake of FF:VIII? The graphics were a GOD among others at the time and are still pretty impressive today and all you keep going on about is how it was rapped up pretty well. Remember, one of the main reasons FF: VII is getting all this attention and why it's fan base was and is sooooo big is because "Square felt they could do better with the game's presentation " (cg and story line) cause if you look at it, FF:VIII was made round the same time as FF:VII just released at different times that being almost 2 years later if that isn't too much.

FF:VII also had a limited budget because Square was experimenting alot considering all the past FF titles were medievel based and they weren't sure about how fans would embrace the game. Then the budget beacame bigger for FF:VIII which did just as well if not better but didn't have the same impact as FF:VII in terms of the fan base, which is why for FF:IX they decided to go back to he medievel thing.

FF:VIII has just as many questions as FF:VII, just that you guys are looking at it like it's FF: VII and they will never be the same so get past that fact and move on. FF:VII is profitable because of those reasons and who wouldn't go buy the remake with the same graphics as Advent Children if you've seen the FF:VII Technical demo for the PS3. In the end the sad part is, "it's all about the benjamins baby".:cry:

Anyway, this is a pretty good idea but the scan info of tiamat will be a little contradicting if it is true since it said tiamat used to be a GF but turned into a monster by Ultimecia's power.

Also, it will be strange that all GF is born through Odine and scattered throughout the world.

[Anaisa]

I actually don't think that ffVIII was all wrapped up. At the end Seifers just sitting aroung fishing with Fujin and Raijin Seifers ambitious he's not going to be content unless he's doing something exciting so there are still things that could be done with him. And as for Squall and Rinoa, if Seifer chooses to come back to garden and vent his anger on Rinoa, and do Squall a favour in the process by throwing her off the balcony, well, thats all fine and good, thats worth a sequel within itself. I also personally think he should overthrow cid. Cid can't cope with running Balamb garden he's an old mess. So Seifer should take the job off his hands, and relegate Cid to doing things like polishing the floors.:monster:

[Kuzavio]

:D HA HA Seifer as the Headmaster of Balamb Garden!!!!! I've got "brother" love for the guy but "just because the bird has wings that doesn't mean it can fly" I speak not to disrespect but to question thy motives. Don't you think Laguna would be far better as Headmaster?:choc:

[Anaisa]

No Laguna couldn't keep the students in line he'd be to soft on them. He's not self assured enough He'd be constantly asking other people what he should do. And when facing the tough decisions he'd probably end up with that niggling cramp in his leg.

[GunbladeMaster]

Exactly. He's already got enough to do even if he was fit for the job.

:confused: Lastly where the hell do the GF's in FF:VIII come from, FF:VII explains they're creatures connected to the Ancuents, original inhabitants of the planet, I still haven't played FF:IX cause I heard to many bad stories bought it and when I did play it I was totaly put of getting it and FF:X has the best explination going on about how they're some dude who died ages ago, some sacrifeicing themslves and thus becoming Aeons.
:confused: Um what are you talking about...simplify. Secondly, there is no fear only difference in opinion.

RE MAKE ALL FFS FOR PS2

no sequels

I'll hit the bad mr playstation man with a big stick if they bring out too many sequels

10-2 already made my brain die, if they ruin my favourite ff with a sequel i might die, truly i would

[Shiny]

Well some of them were already re-made (example: FF5 and 6). 10 and 10-2 don't need to be re-made. And 9 looks fine it just needs some voice actors.

Oringinally posted by G SpOtZ:
and as for that vid, tootncartman, are you sure that was an unmade sequel? everything looks so similar to that of ffviii, that i would think it's just a movie that somebody messed around with. it's possible to modify the video of a regular battle with tonberries, change the characters and change the battle area. i find it hard to be believe that it was an actual unmade sequel. WEll maybe your right i shouldn't be so naive next time but.. i will never know. Also i called the Moomba a moogle i self-owned myself. Well make your own mind up about it...

Theres no need to know so no one asks. They are not a major part of the game so it doesn't need to be explained. In FFX the aeons where a major part of the game so its almost essential to explain. BTW if you still haven't played IX you are SOO lucky it fried half my brain with it's crap.

:D HA HA Seifer as the Headmaster of Balamb Garden!!!!! I've got "brother" love for the guy but "just because the bird has wings that doesn't mean it can fly" I speak not to disrespect but to question thy motives. Don't you think Laguna would be far better as Headmaster?:choc:

i agree

[Nick Schovitz]

As I am a Squall look a like yes I would love for a FFVIII sequal but I think you can use Odin since that's a summon from the game already but, I think you would have to have all of the main characters from the original VIII.

[Christmas]

We need a sequel about Squall having unspeakable affairs with students by abusing his position as headmaster. Rinoa is driven mad and befriended a T-Rex from the training centre when she was talking to the wall. Together, they embark on a journery to debunk that she is Ultimecia while Squall gets sent to jail for his crime against nature. :bigsmile:

PS: Zell will ride on a giant hotdog and marry the libray girl then proceed to cook and eat her as a hotdog. Intense stuff.
