FINAL FANTASY VIII REMASTERED
Description :
Final Fantasy VIII is a role-playing video game developed and published by Square for the PlayStation console. Released in 1999, it is the eighth main installment in the Final Fantasy series. Set on an unnamed fantasy world with science fiction elements, the game follows a group of young mercenaries, led by Squall Leonhart, as they are drawn into a conflict sparked by Ultimecia, a sorceress from the future who wishes to compress time. During the quest to defeat Ultimecia, Squall struggles with his role as leader and develops a romance with one of his comrades, Rinoa Heartilly.
Development began in 1997, during the English localization of Final Fantasy VII. The game builds on the visual changes brought to the series by Final Fantasy VII, including the use of 3D graphics and pre-rendered backgrounds, while also departing from many Final Fantasy traditions. It is the first Final Fantasy to use realistically proportioned characters consistently, feature a vocal piece as its theme music, and forgo the use of magic points for spellcasting.
Final Fantasy VIII was mostly well received by critics, who praised its originality and visuals while criticizing some of its gameplay elements. It was voted the 22nd-best game of all time in 2006 by readers of the Japanese magazine Famitsu. The game was a commercial success, grossing $151 million in its first day of release in Japan, and more than $50 million during its first 13 weeks in North America, making it the fastest-selling Final Fantasy title until Final Fantasy XIII, a multi-platform release. A Microsoft Windows port followed in 2000, with the addition of the Chocobo World minigame. Final Fantasy VIII was re-released worldwide as a PSOne Classic on the PlayStation Store in 2009, for PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Portable, with support for PlayStation Vita in 2012. It was re-released via Steam in 2013. By August 2019, it had sold more than 9.6 million copies worldwide. A remastered version was released for Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One in September 2019.

Story :
At the forefront of a rising tide of violence brought on by Galbadia's
war declaration is a SeeD cadet named Squall Leonhart. Serious to a
fault, Squall has earned himself the reputation of being a lone wolf.
A chance encounter with the free-spirited Rinoa Heartilly, however,
turns his universe upside down. Having thrived on discipline, Squall
finds Rinoa's carefree attitude fascinating. Yet there is no time to
ponder these thoughts, for the job of dealing with the sorceress
behind Galbadia's irrational hostility has fallen to SeeD and Squall.
In Final Fantasy VIII, the player will assume the roles of Squall and
Laguna to advance the story.
At times, Squall is known to fall into a "dreamlike" state. It is
during these periods that he encounters Laguna.
What destiny awaits these two characters?
At what point does the story between the two cross?
Who is Laguna...?

Age: 17

Blood Type: AB
Weapon: Gunblade
Squall's weapon of choice is the Gunblade. It's a very unique sword that also
doubles as a gun. He is one of only two Gunblade users in Balamb Garden, so
Squall is a very valuable asset to the people there. Personality wise, he is
an introvert. He keeps to himself, but he knows what he wants and is willing
to do what it takes to accomplish it. Squall is a complex person with a cool
sword, and he will prove to be another great Final Fantasy hero soon enough.

LIMIT BREAKS
--------------
Squall uses the Renzokuken limit breaks. These limit breaks require you to
push R1 when the light hits the small box towards the end. If you do this,
successfully, the attack will be much stronger than if you miss the box
entirely. He also randomly gets to add a limit break towards the end of this
limit break, depending on the weapon.
Rough Divide - Revolver, Shear Trigger, Cutting Trigger, Flame Saber, Twin
Lance, Punishment, Lion Heart
Fated Circle - Shear Trigger, Cutting Trigger, Flame Saber, Twin Lance,
Punishment, Lion Heart
Blasting Zone - Flame Saber, Twin Lance, Punishment, Lion Heart

Weapon: Blaster Edge
Rinoa comes handy in battle due to her unique Blaster Edge weapon, which acts
sort of like a handheld flail. She also has the ability to summon her dog when
she is in trouble during battle. She is important to the game, not only
because she happens to be Squall's main love interest, but because she is a
member of the Timber Resistance group "Forest Owls", who is fighting against
the president of Galbadia due to the suffering in her hometown. She acts based
on her first instinct, and shows much more emotion than her male counterpart.

LIMIT BREAKS
--------------
Rinoa uses the Combine limit break, as she has multiple limit breaks. Her main
limit break for most of the game is Angelo. You learn new tricks for Angelo by
getting the various Pet Pals issues of magazines found throughout the world.
To teach Angelo a trick, go to the Angelo status screen and select a trick
with an empty or partially filled bar to learn the trick. When the trick is
learned, you'll hear a whistle, and then you can learn a new trick.
Here are the tricks that Angelo can learn during the game, how he learns them,
and what the trick does.

In Disc 3, Rinoa will learn the Angel Wing limit break. This limit break works
kind of like the berserk status effect, only she'll use magic instead of
physical attacks. The magic will be stronger than normal, and will be
completely random. She must have some of the spells in her possession to cast
them, but the spells she casts will not come out of her stock.

Quistis is a great member of the party to have around during battle if you can
find the items that allow her to learn her various limit break abilities. Some
of them, like Degenerator, work quite well throughout the game. She also has
decent attacks with her whip and junctioning makes her quite a powerhouse if
you like her limit breaks enough. She is much admired in Balamb Garden, and
she is known as a child prodigy due to her being able to instruct students at
the young age of 18. Her intelligence and poise come in handy throughout the
game.

Zell is gay. Literally. I figured I'd get that out of the way now before
continuing with the biography. He's not "gay", like in uncool, but gay as in
GAY. He has a crush on Squall and wants to have butt sex with Seifer. He also
has an unholy obsession with hot dogs. That being said, he's also a kick ass
character to have along thanks to his powerful limit breaks, if you can
remember how to perform them. Outside of battle, he is known as a klutz due to
how clumsy he is, but everyone seems to get along with him okay.

LIMIT BREAKS
--------------
Zell's limit break, Duel, is a lot like Sabin's blitz attacks, for those of
you familiar with Final Fantasy 6. At the start of the game, Zell knows a few
basic commands. You can input various keys into the controller during the
limit breaks, to perform different moves. For instance, pushing circle and X
will let you perform the Punch Rush attack. You can learn different moves by
finding the Combat King magazines throughout the world. Here is the listing of
where you can find them:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- NAME | LOCATION |
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Combat King 001 | Cell in first floor of the D-District Prison. |
- Combat King 002 | Defeat Raijin and Fujin in Balamb Garden. |
- Combat King 003 | Get from Zell's girlfriend in Balamb Garden. |
- Combat King 004 | Get from an Esthar Soldier in Esthar. |
- Combat King 005 | Found in Lunatic Pandora during disc 3. |
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When it comes time to perform the limit break, a window appears at the bottom
of a screen showing your available attacks. Once you perform those, you can
perform multiple if you have enough time. You also get to perform finishing
moves. Below, I listed the various finishing moves, as well as where you can
learn them, and any combos you can perform to get to the finishing maneuver.

Selphie is one of them annoying types of women, like Yuffie in FF7, but unlike
Rinoa, she was INTENTIONALLY annoying. So, I didn't mind her too bad. She was
a recent transfer student to Balamb Garden, and she is fighting to help the
Garden Celebration between training sessions. She is a skilled fighter who is
very capable with her nunchaku, and her slot limit breaks are pretty unique. I
never used her too much, however, as Squall/Irvine/Zell was my favorite party,
but she is not a bad supporting character if you choose to use her.

LIMIT BREAKS
--------------
Selphie uses the Slot limit break, which is basically what it sounds like,
sort of. Basically, the game randomly selects a spell, and how many times it
will be cast. You can select "do it over" to change this, if you wish. This
limit break is useful due to the spells you can cast with it. There are four
spells in all, here they are.
-> A quick tip to getting Wall/Rapture/The End: Have Selphie on a high level
with VERY little HP remaining. Thanks to Richard Beast for the tip!

early on in the game, and even late if you have these spells junctioned to
your statistics and don't want to use them.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/ WALL /
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I used this limit break over 100 times and only ended up with Wall 4 or 5
times, so I guess it's a little rare. However, it's a great spell that casts
Protect and Shell on all party members. Definitely useful.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/ RAPTURE /
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This spell is also pretty rare, as it causes an enemy to fly away from the
battle, eliminating them from the battle. It doesn't work on bosses, however.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/ THE END /
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
By far the hardest spell to get on her limit break, but incredibly useful as
it eliminates an enemy completely, and IT WORKS ON ALL BOSSES TOO, except the
last one, meaning some tough boss fights can become incredibly easy if you get
lucky and land on this limit break during the slot.

Irvine is an expert shooter who is very capable with a gun in his hand. He
thinks of himself as a lady's man, as he is always trying to score with the
latest hot chick. However, appearances can be deceiving, as he has been known
to lose his cool during pressure situations. He is a great character to have
on your team due to his great statistics, that can be added on by junctioning.
In addition to this, his long range attacks definitely come in handy, as well.
He is a good character, in my opinion.

LIMIT BREAKS
--------------
When Irvine gets to use his Shot limit break, he gets to select the type of
ammunition he wishes to use. This is very important and actually requires some
strategy, as you don't want to waste your strong ammunition on weaker enemies.
First, here is how you can refine ammunition using the Ammo-RF ability.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------| REFINING AMMO USING AMM0-RF ABILITY |--------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- 1 Screw = 8 Pulse Ammo | 1 Normal Ammo = 1 Fast Ammo |
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- 1 Shotgun Ammo = 2 Fast Ammo | 1 Bomb Fragment = 20 Fire Ammo |
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- 1 Red Fang = 40 Fire Ammo | 1 Fuel = 10 Fire Ammo |
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- 1 Poison Powder = 10 Dark Ammo | 1 Venom Fang = 20 Dark Ammo |
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- 1 Missile = 20 Demolition Ammo | 1 Running Fire = 40 Demolition Ammo |
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- 1 Cactus Thorn = 40 Demolition Ammo | 1 Sharp Spike = 10 AP Ammo |
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- 1 Chef's Knife = 20 AP Ammo | 1 Laser Cannon = 5 Pulse Ammo |
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- 1 Energy Crystal = 10 Pulse Ammo | 1 Power Generator = 20 Pulse Ammo |
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A thing to keep in mind is that you can stop shooting by pushing triangle if
the ammo stops causing damage, because that means the enemy is dead. Now,
there are eight different types of ammo, and each causes different damage
values and types. Below, I will list the eight types and explain what each do.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/ NORMAL AMMO /
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also known as Normal Shot. You can aim at different enemies while shooting
this ammo, but it only targets one at a time. It causes a decent amount of
damage and has a solid, but not really great, reloading speed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/ SHOTGUN AMMO /
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also known as Scatter Shot. This ammunition is a lot like the Normal Ammo,
only it attacks every enemy on the screen instead of just one.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/ DARK AMMO /
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also known as Dark Shot. This ammunition is a lot like the Normal Ammo, but
you also have a decent chance of causing a status effect, ranging from Silence
to Darkness, on the enemy.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/ FIRE AMMO /
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also known as Flame Shot. It causes fire damage to all enemies on the screen,
and has a decent reloading speed. Make sure to focus it on enemies that don't
absorb fire magic, otherwise this ammo will heal those enemies and you will
have effectively wasted the ammo.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/ DEMOLITION AMMO /
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also known as Canister Shot. It is a more powerful version of the Normal Ammo,
but the reloading time is much slower, so you might be better off with the
Normal Ammo, especially if you have an excess of it to use up.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/ FAST AMMO /
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also known as Quick Shot. As you may have guessed by looking at the name of
the ammunition and the name of the shot, Fast Ammo has an extremely quick
reloading speed, which works out well due to the limited attack power. You'll
need a lot of ammo, though, as it quickly runs out due to the speed of firing.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/ AP AMMO /
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also known as Armor Shot. This is a stronger version of the Demolition Ammo,
as its attack power and reloading speed are much higher. In addition, this
ammo ignores enemy defenses, causing lots of damage even if the enemy has
armor or protect status.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/ PULSE AMMO /
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also known as Hyper Shot. It is by far the best ammunition in the game, as it
causes a ton of damage to one enemy, and can be aimed between different
enemies. However, it is rare to find, as you need to refine Laser Cannons,
Power Generators, or Energy Crystals to get some.
