Asking square for the answer and that answer's reliability would be like asking tabacco companies if their product causes cancer.
The writers can tell the actual truth, but what are our chances of getting a hold of the think tank and not just a busy secretary or other official of square.
To answer this question would actually require like an investigation like them tobacco companies.

ARGUMENT FROM GUITAR MASTERY
(1) Eric Clapton is God.
(2) Therefore, God exists.
If you want something done, do it yourself.It can be wrong in theory...but in fact it cant.
I know I can e-mail square...cept I'm sure somelse can alsoSomeone please e-mail them..and we can get this arguement finished
And I wont even get into arguing why a secretary or press rep would lie as opposed to giving the standard 'We're sorry, we cannot answer that question at this time' answer.
I agree but only because I didn't say it.No, and that's not very Zen
yea, square would lie or tell us they cant answer it, thats what i meant. And at times it can be taken both ways.
School Sucks, Go Work.
Dont get uspeset at me! I was only suggesting that someone e-mail them. Seeing as none of ya want to..then I'm gonna go ask them for answers aswell as reasons....
Just pray that they'll have the decency to answer me....
Why would square lie? Why the hec would they? Its not this is a big conspiricy...just a debate..that really needs finishing :P
They probably won't answer, many ff have an unclosed finish, which leads to the usage of the imagination. that's probably what they intend.
"In Nomine Patris Et Filli Et Spiritu Sancti, Amen.
Ave Maria Gratia Plena Dominus Tecum Benedicta Tu In Mulieribus, Et Benedictus Fructus Ventris Tui Iesu.
Sancta Maria Mater Dei Ora Pro Nobis Pecatoribus Nunc Et In Hora Mortis Nostrae, Amen."
they make me so mad...they just redirected me to ea support..then said it was closed and shoved me somewhere else...
they are soo infuriating.
*Is confused as to why an intelligent debate has turned into an arguement over why people won't let us stop having to use our imagination*
I say what I think. If you disagree, then that is up to you.
Gee, Why do you think that is?
School Sucks, Go Work.
I'm gonna have to agree with the whole "it's a videogame, not a conspiracy" thing. I mean seriously, why WOULDN'T they give a straight answer if directly asked?
Exactly! Thank you so much! I agree too.
*bangs head against wall*
Seriously if you care what Square has to say, go track down the writers and ask them. It might take you a long time but I guarentee it'll be faster than sitting here and discussing it until someone magically comes up with the ability to read minds. They know what they were thinking, we know what we think, that's as far as you'll get here.
Back on topic:
Big D I missed this last time:
Do you really think they'd have made the last boss mean something so insignificant, and never actually mention it until the fight itself and only if you use scan? This isn't FFIX my friendQuote:

Or, to be cynical, the answer could simply be "Squall believes Griever is the most powerful GF; turns out he was right"..
I know it's a simple explanation, and they can be best, but it's along the "it was all just a dream" levels of story endings.
I say what I think. If you disagree, then that is up to you.
To us the consumer, its a video game, that we play for abour 30 hours of our life and it dissapears in the back of the closet. The game is over.
To others (creators, writers, musicians, CG technicians) the videogame is a work of art. Right now its worth only the 30 dollars we bought it for. In the future maybe itll be worth something more for various reasons. It identifies a world like culture, music, entertainment...etc. Even picasso was unappreciated and his art work may have been found in hotels when he first started. People criticized him, bought his wok, looked at it, through it in a closet.
Asking the truth, secret or answer of FFVIII plot, R=U...etc. is like asking a magician how he/she does it. Its like asking what inspired Picasso to do cubism. We find that when we know the magic tricks, its not fun to watch anymore. The same would go if we found out Picasso's inspiration of cubism was by looking through a calidoscope.
That would be a reason square wouldnt spill the beans. Either it be by, "We cannot answer at this time" or a swift "No" (hmm lie?).
