I hope one day they decide to remake ff8. It's one of the top selling FF games and the characters are quite popular in the franchise.

If done properly people would love it more than ff7 and I truly believe that!

FF8 is permanently my favorite game. The crazy thing to me is how the amount of “cut” content is almost as big as the actual game. Image how much more fleshed out it could be

I think I have some very good ideas on how to rework FF8 systems in a remake. 1. Remove the Draw command, but keep the Draw system. Instead of being an active command, Squall (Since he’s the mandatory character) automatically Draws from enemies when they’re defeated. Each draw would max out at 1 instead of 100, and all 3 party members could use the same Draw simultaneously. This removes the tedious and time-consuming act of manually drawing 300 spells, but keeps the excitement of maybe finding a new Draw if you come across new enemies. 2. Keep the Junction system, but clean up the UI. When you select a stat to Junction, the list of Draws you can use should be listed in order from what boosts that specific stat the most to what boosts it the least, instead of a random order. Additionally, color/highlight Draws that are the #1 Draw for multiple stats, and list which stats and how much each stat changes so you can make priority decisions more easily. 3. Because of how the new Draw system would work, it would be completely decoupled from the Magic system, and thus Magic would actually become useable. 4. Limit breaks should honestly just work like FF7 or FF10. 5. Expand upon the weapon progression system. We need more than 4 weapons per character for an entire game. It could potentially go hand-in-hand with the new Draw system in terms of farming. 6. Make GFs more relevant outside of being conduits for stats. It doesn’t feel good to get a new GF and then basically never summon it. Just these few things would massively improve the gameplay, I think.

Ff8 was the first game i bought for the ps1 as a kid. I never understood how to properly play the game, but i still loved it.

8 remains my favourite Final Fantasy. I played it at a time when I felt like an orphan. I felt Squall's emotion which many assumed he had none.

FF VIII has been my all time favourite game since I was 12. Im now 35. I would love... loooove the remake treatment. To see the characters and world I adore fleshed out like remake would be a dream. However I tend to agree with sentiment in the video that its unlikely to get a remake. The game was always one of the black sheeps on the FF roster. Not only was the junctions system collectively hated apart from the cult followers like me. But people had issue with the setting, the story and even some characters. Its fair to say their are a lot of fans of FF 8, but not nearly on the popularity scale as FF 7.

FF8 is my childhood dream and also the first FF i ever played. Ijust really hope that they remake FF8 asap

They're completely right that other fans being excited definitely gets new people to play the game. I got into FF during the FF15 presentation that had all the off shoot announcments like Aaron Paul in their movie and the amount of hype behind it definitely made me want to take part in it

FF8 is my favorite FF game of all time. It deserves a remake. Even people are giving it another chance after years of hating it, coming to the conclusion that they actually love the game. And they too, are begging for a remake. I don't understand why SE is so hesitant on making this possible. It's so popular. It's a great game. It is deserving.

Nice to see a fellow man of culture appreciate Final Fantasy VIII. Personally, I don't trust Square Enix to remake VIII but maybe they'll change my opinion if IX is done well. If they're looking to remake or revisit a Final Fantasy from the days of yonder I'd suggest Final Fantasy II. I think there was a lot there to explore. The Dawn of Souls content and an After Years type follow-up would be really cool. A note to whoever does these KZread clips, could you actually put who the people are in the summary? I had to hop on the Google machine and figure out that this person was Ben Starr.

I would buy it, I love this game since I was a child

Ben is so precious. I love him. FF8 was also my frst experience and introduction to the series, so I have special feelings about it. Either we see a remake in maybe 20 years, or fans should start a petition to remake it! :)

Everybody says seven is the greatest Final Fantasy game ever because it's the cool thing to say. And you seem like you know what you are talking about if you say that. But 8 is the best

TBH the Mobile Legends emblem matrix system is the nearest comparison to FFVIII Junction system.

FF8 would be so amazing as a remake. With a streamlined junction system, they could make it more intuitive and then sell a new audience on the epic story and characters. And that CARD GAME, Am I right?

If they remake FF8, I want the FF8 Yoshinori Kitase wanted to make, not the game we got. Kitase has said in interviews that he had to cut 50% of the games story and content because they ran out of time. Originally, the game was going to be 50% Squall and 50% Laguna, with Laguna having his own world map and way more story events. That's the game I want.

Square enix could experiment by re-releasing the game with full voice acting. If it does well, it could convince them to at least do an expanded story.

FF8 > FF7

Surely with the deveplopment of AI computing, the remakes of games could become easier and easier with every passing year.

It's crazy to me people loving FF7 story and hating FF8's, FF8's story is so much better. Obviously the junction and draw system would have to adapt, MP would have to come back, but aside from that I never understood the love for FF7 and hate for FF8 Remake VIII after VII, come on, we don't need BS sidequests, minigames or open world, do it in one game...I'm really tired and bored of VII content tbh

As long as Nomura has nothing to do with it besides the art; and Toriyama stays faaaaaaar away.

Not the first FF game id like to see remade, id probably like to see 6 or 4 first, 8 would have to be a completely different game, most of the mechanics were fail points that nobody wants to see reinvented, magic system junction scaling enemies all bad.
