I cried only because it was over and because Square are such toe-rags they'll never continue it. :(
...unless there's a FF8-2, of course. I know some of you people will rue the day, but I'm hoping against hope.

i havent completed the game yet...but there was times i wanted to cry in frustration-[spoilers] when adel didnt kill rino or when edea(seifer maybe?canr emember) put rinoa ti 'sleep' and she wasnt dead![/spoilers]...but,i did feel rather touched at the [spoilers]orphanage flashback[/spoilers]
I felt touched at the (SPOILER)orphanage flashback, although it did all seem a bit unbelievable. But it's Final Fantasy here!! I never really cried at the game, at bits like the end where (SPOILER)Laguna is visiting Raines grave , I just felt happy for them, that they did get (SPOILER)the chance to marry . At the scene inside the Ragnarok, and also in space, it is quite high on the emotion stakes, but really, it isn't sad sad, until after (SPOILER)all the romance and Rinoa is taken away. The only place I felt my chest heaving a teensy bit was when (SPOILER)Squall goes to rescue Rinoa- such a lovely FMV, and it shows Squall does have a heart under all that coldness... poor guy... the best thing about FF8 is that is has a (SPOILER)lovely, perfectly cheesy, happy ending where you find out loads of happy conclusions. I wanted it to go on a bit, though, didn't you? I wanted Laguna and Squall to have a little talk... oh well, that may have spoiled the cheery, mellow atmosphere they had going. :choc:
FF8 is really cool, it was a great experience. I agree with the idea of Squall and Laguna having a little conversation, but in the end I guess it was a fine ending.
I cried a little, because I had lots of homework and wasn´t able to finish the game, so my boyfriend finished it for me and we saw the ending together...
Yes, Julia (SPOILER) died at the age of 28 in a car accident before Rinoa was 5 and I agree that a scene with Laguna and Squall wouldn't have gone amiss. I think that's why people still weren't sure (SPOILER) that Laguna was his father so it would have been good to see them acknowledge that but as Pucca said it might have spoiled the ending's feel.Quote:

i dont remember the game telling me that... how are you so sure?Quote:

I think she (SPOILER)died giving birth to Squall.
No, Raine (SPOILER)died shortly after giving birth to Squall. Julia gave birth to Rinoa and had nothing whatsoever to do with Squall.
Julia's fate is detailed in the Tutorial, under the 'Eyes on Me' heading I believe.
*head is now very bruised* That was where I found out about Julia... :DQuote:

i turned into a living fountaine in the rinoa-in-space-scene :( :cry: :crying: :boohoo:
(SPOILER)Well, as I don't really care when people die, Rinoa almost dying didn't bother me. The ending was more happy and lighthearted than anything else, so that didn't get me, but the scene on the bridge, where Eyes on Me was playing... that got to me. Music's a powerful beast, I must say. Then again, I cry at the drop of a hat...
WHOA! Just had a moment and realized how close it was that (SPOILER) Squall and Rinoa could have been like brother and sister...good thing everythign went how it did... if they were related, that would make it kinda sick, huh?
