The precious Final Fantasy VII would, instead, be treated like an overrated rockstar. Instead, Final Fantasy VIII would look…a tiny bit better. This, of course, made no sense Square Enix is already the middle of an expensive remake. For a brief and ridiculous moment, I entertained the idea of a true remake, a chance to see the gorgeous Balamb Garden realized with modern technology. My ire reached a fever pitch this past E3, when Square Enix revealed Final Fantasy VIII was being re-released. Yet, loving it feels like you’re in a high school interest club where three people showed up and one person left because it felt awkward. It’s all a little silly, mind you- Final Fantasy VIII made a ton of money. I’ve have moments like that time and time again over the years. There are shared interests, and there is mutually agreeing Final Fantasy VIII is a treasure. I’ve known Brad for decades-seriously, we first met at E3 1998, when I was 13-but in that moment, we’d never been closer. He revealed a soft spot for Final Fantasy VIII. I remember when I started working for Giant Bomb, and Brad Shoemaker and I got to talking about Final Fantasy.
