[Kenshin IV]

One of the biggest problems with Eight wasn't that it was a love story, but that it was a bad... horrible... terrible love story. Rinoa and Squall had no chemestry, and their romance was completely unbelievable. They meet, barely socialize throught the fist disc, and all of a sudden they're in love..... yeah, right.
What does this have to do with the topic you ask? Well, unlike Squall and Rinoa, Squall and Quistis did have chemestry. Their relationship actually had development..... up to a point. Then when Rinoa steps in Quistis says she "doesn't care," and we're supposed to believe that? Yeah, I don't think so.
Now, this was one of the major flaws with that amazingly flawed game, but not the only one. There were others, but that's for another topic.
