It did extremely well and is still one of the best sellers even though it has the least amount of ports.
It happened last time I did 15th Anniversary but my thread was kept because it had more content lmaoThread made at 12am lol kimoi. Morrigan , I was going to make this thread too, think of how mad OP would have been in this case!
Was going to use my japanese timezone and normally early waking up time as a safety mechanism. "No one will make this in the 4 hours I'm asleep..."Never underestimate my crazy when it comes to VIII. I woke up 2 hours before I was supposed to post the thread which is 5am for me.
It's not HD Remastered.
They didn't work on the pre-rendered backgrounds and characters models like they did with IX.
They did improve the character models, but that's basically it. It didn't get the same level of attention as IX.It's not HD Remastered.

Did they work on the backgrounds on FFVII for PC/PS4? I honestly don't recall for either VII or IX. They looked muddy to me.
If anything they should put out all 3 again on PS4 with backgrounds recreated using the AI like in that one thread.
They worked so much on characters models and also the backgrounds:They did improve the character models, but that's basically it. It didn't get the same level of attention as IX.
Love the art direction in this game.

Let the Luminous Studio team remake it so I can experience the Battle of the Gardens in real time.
Speaking of VIII, god I would LOVE a remake made in the vein of XV. It was the original fantasy based on reality after all.
Just imagining touring the halls of Balamb Garden, exploring the world, the siege of Dollet, the Tomb of the Unknown King, the assassination attempt on Edea, the Battle of the Gardens, etc, etc.
The FFVIII world theme was my go-to travel track on XV too. It's pretty much perfect for driving.
Edit : 3D characters overlaid on one or more 2D pre-rendered animated backgrounds (for the PS1 era), it was really very good work:
I also would prefer a faithful remake. The graphics would be made to match the FMV's but obviously a little more detailed, more sidequests for each party member, make Laguna/Kiros/Ward either playable or add more to that story, though with that I realize the purpose of the cutoff is because Ellone has a realization. Seifer/Raijin/Fujin should become playable and join in the final battle.Wazzy please could you describe your ideal FF8 remake?
Mine would be a crash bandicoot style remake which was extremely faithful (including fixed-ish backgrounds) but with really nice graphics, and many cut scenes and interactions similar in quality to XIII.
Wazzy ,few people are as committed to their fave as you are. *salute*
The draw system is THE worst system ever put into a Final Fantasy game. I dont know if I ever even used magic.
Looking at Balamb evokes such a school days nostalgia trip. Good lord, I can hear the music just looking at these.
One aspect of VIII I feel is the most underappreciated is the dialogue.
I absolutely love that game and it should be released on all current platforms.
There's one thing I hated though, once you reach the last CD you can't visit towns anymore. Why the hell did they do that.
My favorite FF. I absolutely love the school aesthetic, the music, the graphics, the GFs, squall's limit breaks, I love it all.
