I love love love LOVE how they used the PS1's hardware to make the 3d backgrounds 'melt'. The vertices coming apart, revealing the void within. The buildings going all wobbly. Genius 1998 move.
Favourite ost ever. This is just too epic and I absolutely love the mystic sorcery vibe of FF VIII. Really makes me feel like I'm fighting to save the world.
Well they pretty much are. 1st time squall pretty much attempts a suicide run after Irvine fails to assassinate edea. 2nd time edea is in galbadia helping with a war. 3rd time you need to ein to even get a chance to even get to ultimecia.
Adel must have communicated with Ultimecia at some point. They were both interested in Ellone. When she had little girls kidnapped and taken to Esthar, they found Ellone and did experiments to read her brain waves. Whatever Odine did, created this machine in Ultimecia's time, which explains how she is able to send her consciousness back in time to a certain extent.
Adel, the Demon Bat, Edea, the Regal Peacock, Rinoa, the Divine Dove, Ultimica, the Beastly Raven, Only four made use of the great gift that made impact on time itself. As for the nameless inferiors, they were fruitless and tactless with powers which reflect upon their forms which took no wing but crawled and slithered through the obscurity of time itself.
It still amazes me how this theme plays near the end of the game, like it was screaming, "This is who you have been dealing with this whole time!" It's fascinating how the plot can be one thing, but it gets deeper and the foreshadowing just builds up to that very point.
Sorceress Edea was actually designed for FF7, but ended up not fitting into 7's narrative, so she was recycled into FF8. The FF7 theme motif was meant to be homage to where her character came from, though I think this remains unconfirmed.
A truly powerful and dangerous boss fight theme! Really captures the dire, desperate feeling of fighting against a force that may just have you woefully outmatched
I understand why but having the fight w Adel play Force Your Way instead of Premonition was such a combo breaker, we couldve had every Sorceress fight feature Premonition, but considering it wouleve been so close to the Sorceress Gauntlet i understand why
I really thought Ultimecia had possessed Adel at some point. I think she had possessed her when Adel dispatched Esthar Soldiers to find little girls. The reason why Adel looked the way she did was because the sorceress powers would alter their body if they held on too long. Ultimecia needed Ellone to go further back in time. Perhaps, had Laguna and Co. not intervened and rescued Ellone from Odine's lab, she would have had full access to her sooner, instead of that toy that becomes this machine that sends she consciousness back in time. Notice how calculated she was manipulating them into bring Rinoa all the way from Galbadia garden to Esthar, then to the Space Station. She already had the lunatic Pandora headed over to teats point, and Rinoa out in space to unleash Adel from her tomb again.
Edea will never stop terrifying me with her theme and her vibes as a villain, but i'll still take her on any time even if i'm scared.... the fear won't hold me back from vanquishing her one day
One of the most iconic songs from VIII. #4 on my list and instantly tells me "You are facing the main antagonist of the game. Are you ready?" Nobuo hit another home run with this song.
First 30 seconds is deciding which party member you want to die on purpose and who you want to pop aura for. Edit: I know ff8 is known to have some easy cheese but realistically all 3 titans that were ff7 - ff9 all had cheese. FF8 was my personal fave out of the great trio. All 3 were undeniably some of the greatest masterpieces in gaming history.
You missed out FF6, it is the greatest game in the series. I dare even to say that FF6 surpassed FF7, FF8 and FF9. FF9 comes second after FF6, followed by FF8 (and FF4) , FF5, and FF7.
@Cloudcolin I also love ff6. But I really got into ff with the Playstation saga. I actually had ff anthology for Playstation which is how I first played ff6. But that was after I played ff7 and ff8.

No matter what anyone says, Final Fantasy 8 was my all-time favorite in the series. I also think the music was the best out of all of them.
You aren't the only one 👍
I love love love LOVE how they used the PS1's hardware to make the 3d backgrounds 'melt'. The vertices coming apart, revealing the void within. The buildings going all wobbly.
Genius 1998 move.
Squall and his whole party are tripping balls while battling those witches.
The build up for this song is phenomenal. What a great boss theme!
FFVIII's Disc 1 finale still is a peak video game moment. Absolutely epic.
Definitely. Squall definitely dies. I believe this theory
Favourite ost ever. This is just too epic and I absolutely love the mystic sorcery vibe of FF VIII. Really makes me feel like I'm fighting to save the world.
Ff8's soundtrack is arguably one of the best as each track perfectly captures the tone
美しくも恐ろしい、神秘的かつ強大な"魔女"との決戦。
それを彩るBGMとしてマジで完璧。
One of the most dire sounding boss themes. It makes you feel like the stakes are at their highest; do or die.
Well they pretty much are. 1st time squall pretty much attempts a suicide run after Irvine fails to assassinate edea. 2nd time edea is in galbadia helping with a war. 3rd time you need to ein to even get a chance to even get to ultimecia.
Fourth time you fight Ultimecia herself @wesker100000000
Exactly !
The Castle and Premonition are my faves 🥹 Kay nvm the entire FF8 Soundtrack is my fav!!
Squall and his whole party are tripping balls while battling those witches.

0:20 FF8なのにFF7のメインテーマニ度刺すのすきすぎる
Maybe becausd Edea was a reused design from unused FF7 concepts?
飛空艇ラグナロクのテーマにも入ってたし、当時の植松氏のお気に入りフレーズだったんでしょ
このフレーズのおかげで実は７世界のずっと未来なんじゃ？とか
大海のよどみは水没した忘らるる都なんじゃ！？とかって妄想したりしてたのでおきにいりです
スコール一同、古代種説
10の世界も7と繋がりあるみたいだし、お天気主人公達の世界は何かと繋がってそうだね
て事はライトニングさんとも…？
Adel, the Demon Bat,
Edea, the Regal Peacock,
Rinoa, the Divine Dove,
Ultimica, the Beastly Raven,
Only four made use of the great gift that made impact on time itself. As for the nameless inferiors, they were fruitless and tactless with powers which reflect upon their forms which took no wing but crawled and slithered through the obscurity of time itself.
Witches in FF8 are so exotics for me😮.
This is one of the best songs in the series hands down!
時空の魔女戦の時の背景が時間圧縮の空間を際立つようにドロドロとしている
4:04
「おまえの思う、最も強い者を召喚してやろう」
逃げられない
「おまえが強く思えば思うほど、」
逃げられない
「それは、おまえを苦しめるだろう」
逃げられない
「ふふっ」
逃げられない
最初は退屈に感じたが、今では大好きな音楽だ。盛り上がりがとてもよく、戦闘音楽としてとても適している。
It still amazes me how this theme plays near the end of the game, like it was screaming, "This is who you have been dealing with this whole time!"
It's fascinating how the plot can be one thing, but it gets deeper and the foreshadowing just builds up to that very point.
Never understood the FF7 main theme motif that plays at the end of the intro
Maybe Uematsu had been playing 7 that morning and it was on his mind...

@@YesiamNovasman the plot would have been wild in VII with this. Glad they decided against it.
強大で恐ろしく、戦ってはいけない魔女と対峙している感覚を音楽で演出させられて、FF8の中でも最も印象に残る曲です。
シーンと音楽の融合で手が震えます。
2:28
やっぱりアルティミシアのセリフはこのオリジナル版の方が好きだな
PC版のセリフだとランダム選出された理由わからなくて困惑しそうｗ
FF8の中で一番すき！当時初めて聴いたとき鳥肌立った

Thank you for providing such high quality videos from the original game, on top of the high quality OST.
We're coming for you, Ultimecia!
I understand why but having the fight w Adel play Force Your Way instead of Premonition was such a combo breaker, we couldve had every Sorceress fight feature Premonition, but considering it wouleve been so close to the Sorceress Gauntlet i understand why

「魔女」の異質さや妖しさを存分に引き出す名曲。弦楽器らしきイントロで聴き入る。
ドラクエ式（レベル上げ）で挑むと必ずアルティミシアで詰む。
その時のトラウマを思い出させてくれる、よいBGM
時の流れを超えて物質的なものは送れないが思念波的なもの（エネルギー的なもの）は送れる。物理的に行く事が不可能な遥か未来の何処に居るか解らないところからそれをやってのけたアルティミシアってスゲー厄介なラスボスだな…
Another one that would be fantastic in an orchestrated version.
1:20 a musica alcança o ápice do drama, simplesmente lindo.
初プレイ時はこのBGMと共に延々出てくる『魔女』をいつまで相手にしなきゃいけないのかとぼんやり考えながら戦ったものだ
Edea will never stop terrifying me with her theme and her vibes as a villain, but i'll still take her on any time even if i'm scared.... the fear won't hold me back from vanquishing her one day
This will always be my favorite boss theme in any ff game
Epic theme for the boss fight.
There is! This music marked my childhood
最後の4連戦全部曲違って全部好きやったなぁ
Ultimecia theme and the extreme also...
限界まで飛ばすぜ！ぽぁぁぁぁぁぁ！
Edea had this sense of invincibility about her at the end of Disc 1. Very reminiscent of the hopeless boss fight against Beatrix in FF9x
peak
such a good boss theme!
魔女魔女してて好きだったなあ いっぱいサントラ聞きましたなつかしー✨
Classic.
One of the most iconic songs from VIII. #4 on my list and instantly tells me "You are facing the main antagonist of the game. Are you ready?" Nobuo hit another home run with this song.
SEED...SEED...SEED...SEED...!!
気に入らない...!!
なぜ青森山田だけ...いつも...!!
Do you guys hope in the next main FF game is that witches are the main villain?
Fun fact: 0:21 has the same motif as the main theme of Final Fantasy VII. That’s because Edea was supposed to be in that game.
Rinoa's Burst Theme
I didn't leave a comment here when the video was first released but this is so damn good, and also underrated.
❤
Awesome [Video Soundtrack] Premonition [FINAL FANTASY VIII] Video.
大谷の入場曲で使ってほしい

魔女なのにこの曲を流されないアデル…リノアを装備して万全に待ち構えてたのに…
Kurse all SeeDs!!!
幽霊、妖怪、怪奇、気に入らない アルゴリズムの中に溶け込むがいい
と考えたらアリゴリズムはピーターショアの考案だった
Please ask Distant Worlds concert to perform this song!
What a beautiful theme, fits for the hot sorceress.
SeeD..SeeD..SeeD..SeeD!Kurse all SeeDs!
楽園主義って知ってる？
