Final Fantasy 8?

Give examples of how the story is fragmented, and badly written. As for the world, thats not true. Multiple islands, a research station, missile base, spacestation, various terrain areas featuring forests, deserts, ice, plains, and mountains.


The story isn't fragmented in my view, as it gives whats needed as it comes up (i.e. why they go to dollet, why they are to assassinate edea,ect.,ect.). As for it being badly written, that ONLY applies to disk 4, since you either roam around a sealed off world, or go into some messed up castle to finish the game (or screw around with omega). Up until then, the story is fine.


The art is very good in various areas. Battleship Island's energy core that contains Bahamut for example. While outside the core, you see the core in the background with those weird symbols, and when you go inside the core, you see the symbols rotating around the battlefield. Next is the Lunatic Pandora. You see the Ragnarok attacking it from afar, then you see it up close, and if you think the Ragnarok is poor art, nothing could be good enough for you. However, the best example is the Lunar Cry. You see rinoa being controlled flying out to unlock adel's seal, then the lunar cry happens, taking adels prison thingy and plunging it inside the lunatic pandora, while the monsters impact the area near esthar, making esthar basically ruined, and making the sky above it pinkish.

The only story fragment I can think of is the paradox the game creates after you defeat ultimecia. You see squall wandering around confused, and is trying to remember rinoa. Then he manages somehow to wind up in the past, where he sees young squall with edea talking to ultimecia. Now that creates a paradox, because if young squall saw adult squall, he would want to be like him, creating a convient time loop where effect comes before action. Also that brings up the point of why didn't ultimecia go back to then, and slay all the kids in the orphange, protecting her from them forever, since it would kill the group, edea, and cid, removing SeeD forever from existance.
