Bad Galbadia

[Serapy]

You sure as hell dispelled Sun Tzu's art of war as wrong in your statement there. You learnt strategy from WoW god help us, please go play a strategy game if you wish to learn something about strategy from a game. Enough said WoW is designed to be balanced in real military situations the fastest one prepared and with the best speed wins. In DoW you can win a battle in 10 minutes because you can overpower them before they're ready. Just like real life.

Where did I mention that I dispelled Sun Tzu? It`s either because I`ve never heard of him before or it`s not relevant to my theory. Also, I do have played "strategy" games and defense/offense always work the best for me.

I do believe somewhere in the game there was a reference as to why Ultimecia didn't go straight to Esthar, I will attempt to find this when I can.

Ellone wasn`t at Esthar, that`s why she didn`t go there.

Ultimecia began compressing time when she processed the JME in disk 4.

Enough said though Ultimecia is only really roughly as powerful as Adel was in her prime...Adel was beaten by a former Gabaldian Soldier who used a trick not a fight to win.

Ultimecia and Adel are two different beings. Obviously, Ultimecia is more superior to Adel. Adel is just a sorceress, like Rinoa.

Esthar has been ruled by sorceresses in the past and would never let one take control again.

Ultimecia was insane, she could do anything what she wants.

Gabaldia would have been tempted to regain "former glory" by having the advantage of a sorceress having seen what Adel can do.

Gabaldia took control of Lunatic Pandora ...

I'll look for in game evidence to this effect though your own evidence is often none-existent in it's support of your theories.

Evidence I've provided are from the game, but thanks anyway, I appreciate it.

The G.D.F. thing is getting ridiculous, look in the artwork of the game as you've clearly posted there is a G.D.F logo on the side of a piece of Gabaldian military equipment. [...]

Where did I mention "You are wrong"? I was simply asking you why did Xu mention G-Army in the game. Also, remember that specific characters (i.e. Quistis) in the game have mentioned Galbadian forces.

No Square don't have to reply, perhaps if your theories weren't quite so "out there" they would send a reply of sorts as it stands they probably take a look and discard it.

No. They have no reason to reply because the game was created to be mysterious in a way (intentionally), if they answered us, that would spoil the game`s purpose. If this game was created to be straightforward and somehow plot holes occured, there`s a good chance that SquareEnix will make announcements regarding such errors or answers via interviews.

If you don`t believe me, then try e-mailing them by yourself.

You are not the only fanboy out there who is just slightly obsessed with one of their games. They released an Ultimania guide for this game in their eyes thats it job done they can all go home.

Not really, the Ultimania guide may have mentioned the sorceress`s life span but that was part of the witches` introduction, adding a bit more detail about them. Other than that, it doesn`t answer other unanswered plot questions.

If what you seek is not in the ultimania guide then well, frankly as far as Square is concerned what you seek to know or think you know is wrong or doesn't exist.

Are you claiming that evidence I've provided are wrong? If not, then please be more specific next time.

I like talking about FFVIII too but you don't see me comming out with outside theories which are not grounded in the story, not supported by the game and have no possible linkage to the storyline in any way.

Once again, I already have provided them. If you don`t agree with my speculation, then that`s your opinion.

Call me "narrow minded" but I'll tell you its a heavy dose of "realistic viewing" and I'll also say that atleast when I theorize something it's got good groundings in the game world or in human action/interaction/inaction.

Enlighten me, then. I`d like to hear your theory as to why you think the game is straightforward.
