Yeah, I feel like the story had potential, but it needed to be presented better.
It’s like they thought the post-modern aspects of FF7’s story (that made it complex and a bit confusing) was what made it great, so they turned it up to 11 for FF8. But instead of having hints everywhere, I think it ended up being more sort of…blind-siding surprises.

What sucks is its story is so interesting, below the surface. Unfortunately, the game is never as good as the deep dive videos.
Remake VIII.
