When I saw Squall unconsiousness, I never thought he was dead. I thought he had lost all hope and fallen asleep ( or somethin :rolleyes2 ). Anyway, never crossed my mind that he might be dead ( maybe cause I was caught up in the awesomness of the ending)
This thread...you have got to be kidding me.
When we're looking through Selphie's cam, Rinoa is with someone pointing at the sky, correct? But we don't see who it is because he is far. When they show you "outside" you can see that he isn't on the video because he wasn't standing that close to Rinoa. And like someone else said, FFVIII's ending had the whole "happyhappy" feel. I doubt it would have that if the main character died.
I think you are all thinkin too much into this. on the first disk when squall goes to that dance thing he's sees the others first and then they disappear and... whoa. actually now i think about it... why would would irvine be in the video if they hadnt met until after the dance. now im confused. i could be that time compression thingy. anyway, yea we didn't no that selphie was doin the video thingy until the credits.
You seem confused. The video recording shown in the ending was a recording of the Garden Party held AFTER Ultimecias defeat, as a celebration (which underlines the fact that Squall isn't dead; or else they wouldn't be laughing and having fun!). The Garden Party in disc 1 was NOT filmed, and time compression is not involved at all.
It's really simple. Whatever happened to Squall when he was lost in that time-warp, Rinoa brought him back, and they promptly went and had a party, which is what we see in the ending. End of story.
That part makes sense enough but i just wanna know why Rinoa stands in the same place...
What do you mean? In the first Garden Party, Squall sees Rinoa standing on the dance floor. In the ending, they're standing on the balcony...
No not on the dance floor i meant outside on the balcony when she does that finger thing. she does that at the end during the video camera bit. oooo everyones got me confused and its buggin me!
You're confusing me too =P What is so strange about Rinoa standing on the balcony doing that finger thing? You have to explain a bit more specifically..
lol sorry. on the first disk, just before the dance scene, Rinoa does the finger thing on the balcony. That is her introduction scene coz its the first time you see her right?
During the credits it shows all the gang having a good time in a video and its at some party, which I thought was the same the one as the first time Squall meets Rinoa.
The last scene at the end where Squall and Rinoa kiss is not what I'm talking about. Erm... i dont know if that makes sense.
Well, in the dancing FMV in disc 1, Rinoa does her finger thing on the dance floor, not the balcony. The fact that she does it in the ending is just because it's Rinoas signature gesture, and I guess Square wanted to bring things full circle.
The party in disc 1 and the party in the ending are two distinct parties, however. It is NOT the same party!
Next time i get the game working again on PC i'll look again. I could have swore they were the same party. O well. I'll look next time. Thanx for making it clearer.
Definitely not the same party. Neither Edea, nor Irvine would have been at the SeeD graduation party, as Edea was busy being possessed by Ulti in Galbadia, and Irvine was in Galbadia Garden, he hadn't even met up with the rest of the team yet, remember? And, as Sir Bahamut pointed out, Rinoa made the gesture on the dance floor in the original, not the balcony.Originally Posted by IceAngel

My friend Delzethin is currently running a GoFundMe account to pay for some extended medical troubles he's had. He's had chronic issues and lifetime troubles that have really crippled his career opportunities, and he's trying to get enough funding to get back to a stable medical situation. If you like his content, please support his GoFundMe, or even just contribute to his Patreon.
He can really use a hand with this, and any support you can offer is appreciated.
Ooooh yea! Sorry for the confusion. I really need to play it again. I completely forgot Edea was in the scene to. Yea i knew i would come in here and sound completely stupid. O well. I remember now lol
I think Rinoa was pointing at a shooting star in the balcony scene. That's what it looked like to me.
