Thread: Sequel To FFVIII - Your Ideas?

  1. #46

    Default

    FF8 is one of my favorite games, and after I'm finished writing my novelization of the game, I've got ideas for two sequels, pretending that they are novelizations of the next two games. The first deals with Hyne returning to Adama (the name I've given to FF8's world), coming back to reclaim his own, i.e. humans. The second is a suprise.

    If a sequel really were made the only practical thing I see is the whole "time loop" thing. Basically they looped, and Ulty will just get her powers again.

    Ooor...Rinoa passes her powers on...to an evil person!

    Do we not have enough sequels in the video game world?

    You just don't get it do you? When poeple ask for a sequel, it always go way beyond a simple game or movie or whatever it is. It's about living a dream we have deep within ourselves. Don't think any less of this topic because in the world theres already a countless number of bad remakes, sequals, and prequals. The fact of the matter is, there are none for FF8 whether good or bad. And I bet everyone on this site would play it reguardless of ratings.

    DO NOT QUESTION THE SEQUELS!

    In reality, the only way we can have a good sequel is if events from the game influence the sequel, like what Skyblade said.

    I'd play it because I am a little fangirl who will play any FF that comes out and then bitch about it later.

    FF8 is the one game out of the entire series that I think has the most prequel/sequel/spinoff-potential and should be expanded upon. Square is milking the wrong game (FF7).

    I’d play it, if they fixed the ‘bug’ that disabled player from looking up Selphie’s skirt.

    A movie I’d leave alone, though. Already wasted my time with one of those.

    Hmmm,....maybe the people replying to this topic have short attention spans or maybe I just trippin'. But we should be talking about ideas we have about the sequal or prequal instead of beckering about whether they should have a sequal are not. So, if you don't have an idea why are you here?

    I'd rather have a thousand fanfics than a single official sequel to FFVIII. Sure, most of them will be atrocious, but there'll be just enough that are good to be alright--and without Square's habit of fiddling with the canon.

    Personally, the two things I'd like most in an FF8 sequel is the whole R=U theory being settled (whether proved or disproved, I don't care, just resolve the damn thing!), and for Fujin to get more screentime. <3 Fujin.

    You're right that FF8 does have the most potential, but FF7 is universally far more popular. Making a "Compilation of FF8" would be a tremendous financial risk, and S-E won't be making many of those after the clustersmurf that was FF:TSW.

    You totally get to see up her skirt a whole ton of times in the victory animations. *cough* Not that I was looking.
