    Default Ridiculous, thou name be monster

    In the evolving of FF games there must have been a lot of times when the creators got so drunk that they must have thought the monsters they created were a good idea. Most of those were put into this game. I mean, look at this guy:



    He can breathe fire, can fly, has the bottom of a hornet and the chin of J. Leno. I mean, seriously?

    Who did you think was the most ridiculous monster in FFVIII?

    Buels~! Aren't they the most feeble things ever, despite being so very large? xD I am a fan of their spinning wings though!

    I loved that Wendigoes played basketball with you. I thought that was brilliant xD Oh, and the hockey guys as well. One of my favourite enemies right there.

    Those must have been some reaaaaally specific breeding conditions for monsters to become so much like hockey players!

    And the Elastoids fit the atmosphere of breaking into Esthar really well, I thought, even if they were eccentric~!

    What about those insect bugs all the way in the beginning of the game, that while you draw magic, repeatedly teabag you for hours. xD

    I like Elastoids. They look pretty imo.

    As for the most ridiculous looking monster? Hmm, I don't know.. I don't think I've come across one where I was just like "wtf?". Perhaps Vysages? Giant mummy things stuck underground does seem kinda strange.

    I'd have to say caterchipillars (as per the Spoony One), buels and geezards. Man, geezards are pretty cool looking, but are among the wimpiest enemies in the game. And they drop screws! HOW?!?!?

    For some reason, I didn't mind elastoids as much. Though they are weird. And are they actually a monster? A robot? Some kind of weird esthar bio-weaponry?

    Though I do like elvoret and elnoyles. They're pretty bad-ass looking, so what's wrong with them? Its a frickin' demon! Its supposed to be scary! Giant hornet - scary. Jay Leno's chin - SCARY.

    Oh, man, the caterchipillars. The designers must have taken something pretty good when they came up with the design for that one. That's true for most of the monster designs, really.

    Mesmerizes were pretty weird.

    It sure did.
