I'm pretty sure that it does have to do with memory limitations, but it was a huge disappointment especially after VII did such a good job with its world. I find it's almost always a bad idea to change a game's structure like this, especially if it's the last thing the player will take away from the game (being the end and all).Originally Posted by Meltdown
It bugged me too; you were basically forced to enter the Castle with not much else to do sidequest wise. Wasn't it due to memory limitations of the disc though? Having to store all the pre-rendered backgrounds of every single city, town and cavern onto one disc (disc 4) would've been impossible. Still though, I get what you mean
