this is moving closer and closer to the R=U theory..which i strongly believe in becuase there is more evidence in supporting the theory then the ultimania guide saying its not cuz its not...(btw...where is the ultimania guide? ive never seen it)

Squaresoft will probably only say on Ultimania what would be the common knowledge of the FF8 population.
(Note that I am being neutral to theories here).
The Ultimania guides are only available in Japan. The information contained inside is official.Quote:

VSS (very silly statement) I'm afraid.Quote:

It's not common knowledge in FF8 how magic works, or what's the deal with sorceresses and their successors, yet that doesn't stop them from explaining it.
The Ultimania guide is meant to clarify, not simply add more issues to be discussed.
So The Abominatrix got it right. If the Ultimania says a sorceress has human lifespan, a sorceress really does have sorceress lifespan, and Rinoa cannot be Ultimecia. QED.
I never believed on R=U anyway.
Hmmmmm.....
Yup. Edea looks younger because of the style change... Must've been hard to use hands with those claw thingies... Didn't her style look similar to the ones before and now after...? In other words, maybe when she was possessed, Ultimecia didn't like how Edea looked, so she went and got all those fancy dresses and stuff.
I don't know about the R=U theory. I don't exactly think about it too much.
ever heard of cosmetics? i'm sure the technology exists hence the fact that gardens possess aerial abilities. we don't have moving buildings yet...
well yeah you can definitely question the technology in the game, but if you think more about it, why aren't some cities as big as they should be, with the kind of technology they have? i mean of course you'll always run into small towns like winhill, but i would think balamb, timer, dollet and other places would be much more bigger, probably just a lil bit smaller than esthar.
I think the reason why their technology is highly advance is because of magic especially the esthar technology...thier technology is combined
with magic+knowledge...while ours is combined with inspiration+art+knowledge...I think.
(Magic + Technology + Knowledge + Art + Inspiration = ?)
