The dumbest moments in FF8

Ok, touche.

Squall, Rinoa, Quistis, Zell, Irvine, Edea, Cid, Seifer or Laguna should have died.

When Zell grovelled in front of Squall to 'thank' him, it looked like Zell was giving Squal a bl*w j*b! :eek: Not that Squall would mind... ;)

I always leave that bit a while before pressing X and Squall is all like 'I said get off!'

"I said get off! Your services are no longer required." :D :D :D Another stupid part is when Irvine has remorse before shooting Edea...like c'mon! I almost felt Squall's frustration in that moment.

Everything after the opening FMV.

when you meet selphie and she falls off the rocks like an idiot.

i thought Seifer slicing Odin in half was just.... dumb. Odin can kill all these big bad monsters and one slash from a human just kills him like that :eep:

Are you sure it was remorse? It looked more like nervousness, as he only had one shot at it, and he didn't want to mess everything up.

No. Irvine remembers who Edea is (their orphanage mother person thing I don't know), and can't bring himself to kill her. At least, that's what I remember, I haven't played for awhile. At least it was something like that.

You mean Matron?

It would seem to be a reasonable explanation, although at the time, it looks like he tries to shoot and simply chokes. Although I would have liked to see a scene where Irvine addresses the assassination attempt in light of later events.

i'll tell you how it is, Irvine explains exactly. He said that he never actually killed a human and that when he had to he just couldn't pull the trigger.:greenie:

I know he gives that explanation, but Omecle raised a valid point about additional reasons that Irvine may have had but left unsaid at the the time.

is this theory strengthened anywhere along the game? does irvine say something that nobody knew?

thats right, when you get to the orphanage irvine says he knew everyone from the moment he met them at galbadia. But he didnt say anything because everyone else didnt even recognise eachother.

While they talk about the past they mention matron, only then does everyone even irvine realise that edea is matron, so he only didnt shoot at her straight away becuase he was nervous:eek:

The part where Zell was doing fighting moves in the hall of Balamb Garden and backflipped and landed on his head and his yarmulke flew off.
