Topic	The vibes in Final Fantasy VIII were unbeatable
ellis123 08/27/25 9:25:42 PM #105:	darkace77450 posted... VII and VIII's graphics have aged poorly. VI's crisp sprites did not age poorly. Nor did IX's more colorful and stylized graphics. Whether they aged poorly (and VIII's definitely didn't) doesn't mean a whole lot to the whole "bad graphics" line. For the time VIII was arguably the best looking game that wasn't on the PC, absolutely not something that considered "bad graphics." At most it largely just proves my point that it's people drunk on the Spoony Kool-Aid more than those actually from the era when it was new that are making utterly BS comments and attempting to pass them off as something legitimate. There were absolutely people who loved it during that era sheerly because it looked that good, and the fact that people have regurgitated Spoony slop over and over really doesn't change the fact that it was overwhelmingly loved compared to every FF before it sans VII on release. --- "A shouted order to do something of dubious morality with an unpredictable outcome?
