AGM: "I may have broken the junction system in Final Fantasy VIII. I've beaten the first disc, my characters are still around level 12, and I can usually one-shot bosses. Let me explain.
Going back to this game was intimidating because the Junction system is so complex. I knew that I never really grasped it last time I played so this time I did research before playing."
With hundreds of games, some of which are considered to be classics that hold up to this day, you’ve got the pick of the litter when it comes to choosing a potential remake
^This. THIS!
Stop remaking PS4 games!
Remake PS1 and PS2 games à la FF7R, RE1, Mafia, Half Life style ....
Make Legend of Dragoon, Legacy of Kain etc Remakes happen
and Valkyrie Profile Lenneth. They did Star Ocean 1 & 2 R already, VPL should get the same treatment.
I'd be down for FF8, and Xenogears. But I would also be down for Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross. And I wish Namco would get off their ass and remake or remaster the Xenosaga trilogy.

Final Fantasy has a long running history with numerous numbered titles and spin-offs, but which games stand to benefit from a remake?
I'd rather the 13 trilogy just be ported tbh. No matter what you think if it, it shouldn't be the only numbered offline games not playable on new consoles. But naturally I'd play the **** out of 8-12 remakes.
BLG writes: "Final Fantasy bosses are swimming with challenging and exciting battles. Over the course of the series, the game has evolved from turn-based battles to more action-oriented gameplay. That has allowed players to see a variety of battles and types if you’ve played multiple entries across the decades. Bosses you see in more recent games like Final Fantasy 15 are grander in scale than those you might have seen on the Super Nintendo in the 1990s. That doesn’t always equate to them being more legendary, though. "
You've not broken the game, that's how you play it. The junction system is far from complex, just that most people dont bother collecting magic until towards the end when you need it.
The bosses aren't particularly different apart from end boss, Tonberry King, and the Marlboros
Good Lord!! You Level in FFVIII.
You are suppose to stock up and draw magics to increase your stats.
You level does nothing but increase the monster's level and Ultimecia HP MAX is 270,000 which Squall on Level 100. Squall level only adds difficulty.
Once again another article that doesn't understand the design FFVIII went.
If you play the game without grinding you shouldn't experience any problems. If you find it difficult you can start drawing a little more magic and equipping said magic to stats. Just don't go overboard grinding for hours on end.
Most enjoyable FF on PlayStation IMO
The best way to abuse the junction system is to play the card game A LOT, and use the GF ability Card Mod to refine items from cards and use GF refining abilities to get good magic from those items. You can stock up on high level magic a lot earlier in the game this way. Better than even drawing magic
thats not breaking the game. or not the true way to break game.
true way of breaking game is grinding AP with Seifer and an unconcious zell an Squall. probably not the quickest way, but definitely one of the earliest stages you can break game completely without gaining exp.
grinding with Seifer and Edea will help you lvl your GF aswell. not 100% sure but what i can remember is AP does not affect your GF lvling experience.
