I have no pure evidence to prove the next bit, but I truly feel that Ultimecia's craziness came from her imprisionment not too long before her future timeline. Such imprisionment was probably made of Esthar. It's either that her imprisonment, a representation of Artemisia, or R=U, that made her crazy.

Adel lacks her own story, just like Ultimecia. But isn't that what VIII is about?
Yeah; she is only broadcasting the same three messages over and over so I imagine that she'd be a bit of a dribbling nutjob by then (instead of just an evil one).

When you say "isn't that was FFVIII is about", I'm not sure what you mean... are you saying most characters lack their own stories? Because as much as I like the game I'll be the first to admit that it feels like they were just making up the story as they went along, which can cause a bit of negligence in the character development department.
