TopicWhy is FF8s writing so poor compared to its generational siblings

Yeah that would be part of the reason character developments seem forced I think-- a lot of characters do stuff entirely to act as vessels or parallels or whatever to facilitate some change that occurs to Zidane more than feeling like full characters themselves. This kinda hurts both them (cause it's sorta too fast for what time/events of importance they're given) and Zidane (his changes are sorta influenced by the other cast members so it's a chain reaction of feeling forced).

Vivi's really the only one that seems kinda natural and that's because he kinda gets his own importance on an island and isn't interacting with other cast members as much imo. So the good writing is there it's just maybe a bit too ambitious-- maybe cut the playables down to FFVIII's level and it'd be fine!
