- Getting Eden from this guy was always fun. And using the addons to make him slightly harder does not help. :P Also testing out a few things here like the implementation of ReShade. And hey, I got Fat Chocobo's textures and upscaled them. Hope he can be added to Project Hellfire soon. Still showing the GF upscales, too. Enjoy.

This game always made me wonder if FF8 is actually a direct sequel to FF7 based far....FAR in to the future, say tens of thousands of years. I mean the hynes in this games mythology could just be a legend describing sephiroth being defeated, the moombas could be red XIII's race evolved over millenia, The shelters (aka gardens) could have been built by shinra remanants due to the planets demise, esthar could be built on the ruins of midgar explaining it's unique technologically avandced society, and even in this scene you have what look like materia reacting to the ultima weapon..... in an under water cavern that looks suspiciously like the remnants to the temple of the ancients. Even magic's scarcity is explained by the damage sephiroth did, thus meaning all the sorceresses were both cetra and corrupted by jenova.... explaining why they all enevitably go insane. Also if you look closely you'll see that the ultima weapons sword is nearly identical to clouds ultima sword. This game is really more interesting when you view it through this lens.
I'm 3 years late to your comment but I've always loved the fan theories about FF 7 and 10 being connected
So fun fact: FF8 IS a direct-line sequel to FF7. The game that bridges the two is actually Xenogears. Cloud mentions the titular gear (He specifically says "Zeno... gias," which, pronounced in Japanese phonetics, is Xenogears.) after his fall into the lifestream, as well as speaking the lyrics for "Two Small Pieces," the theme from Xenogears.
FF7's Cetra legend speaks of a crystal spaceship (The Lunatic Pandora) which would take them to the Promised Land, a place where magic springs from the ground. This phenomenon occurs regularly in FF8's Draw Points, where magic literally springs forth from the ground. It is to be noted also that the Mobile Type-8 gear found on the Lunatic Pandora in FF8 was the completed Type-8 gear from Xenogears.
Long and short is that someone out there found a way to the Promised Land, well after the events of FF7.
And no, FF8 makes it clear that Moombas are ascended Shumi, not evolved R13's. Should've gone that route, though. Could've been something there.
This is the first ff game I bought with my own paycheck. Good times .
Damn I was bearly 9 playing this but I did buy FF 13 on my own forward from then but did play ff7 first as a Youngin to ff 15.
Awww! Ff8 was my first ever real RPG too, it'll always hold a special place in my heart.
I love the sound from light pillar.
It sounds so deadly xD
it was deadly for me when played on psone, i still remember after more 15 years i was dying on each one
It’s my favorite sound effect in any final fantasy game actually. XD
It’s so badass.
HD remastered or not, back in the ps1 days ff8 graphic was mind blowing
Yeah, the particle system was legit.
Very true
I still love them. They are so well made.
I play by ps1
the cut scenes were mind blowing
ive been playing this game over and over for 20 years, and absolutely love it every time. what works the best for me, isn't GF's. I use physical attacks. ill call up doomtrain for a boss fight even if the poison attack heals the boss, just to cut its defenses and cast any abnormal statuses that it can. then I wail on it. aura and aura stones on squall and rinoa, and limit breaks go nuts. but just in case I always hit the hidden save point that's right there by the terminal.
Do you level up fast? I used to like it when on low level and enemies were tough
What hidden savepoint? I used to have a heart attack everytime I tried.
David V equip the move-find ability when you reach the bottom. There’s a hidden save point right there. But I never go after ultima weapon until my preferred party has their top weapons. My party is Squall, Rinoa, and Zell. Also I make sure Rinoa has taught Angelo both wishing star and invincible moon. But also I hit up the island closest to hell, and stock the spells found there. Well I used to, but ive found other ways to get the spells. If you get them, and junction them right, you can make your characters virtually invincible. Junction 100 ultimas, and 100 full-life’s to your elemental defense and all elemental attacks will actually heal you instead of harm you. The only slight exception is poison. Getting hit with poison will heal you, but it still carries its negative effects when you make an action. But if you can land yourself a ribbon, then you will never have to worry about it.
@@Jennifer-jt9cb thank you for the reply! I don't remember how I did it, nor how I dealt the frustration of doing the whole thing many times, but i defeated Ultima and omega (omega proof). I also remember being proud and promised to never do it again... Until I did it again. Love this game!
No clue why this guy is using random summons tbh
It's the least efficient and slowest way to do this
Maybe he just thought they looked cool or something
This was a lot of fun to watch. The upscales look great!
I struggled for a LONG time here when I was young and playing this for the first time because I didn’t know about Zell being able to cut off the security system at the start of the dungeon. I worked my way all the way down to Ultima, fighting random battles every two steps just so I can get my ass whooped a few times trying to draw Eden back before I really understood the junction system to make my party stronger and have more defense. Good times
With all that mod. I can say now that
*You're the best good looking guy out here.
This is amazing! Fantastic mod work!
FF8 was my first ff and played it sometime around the year 2003 when I was 10, then tried 7 sometime around 2008-2015(can't really remember which year)
Took me till I was in my 20's to realize that ultima has a slightly different version of cloud's ultimate weapon.
Holy shit, that looks so damn beautiful, I may get the game just to play it like this. Wow.
This is the most epic battle of the most epic Final Fantasy episode of all time!!! Simply awesome!!! I remember that I also managed to defeat Ultima Weapon once at that time on the PS 1 but I remember it has been really a exhausting experience! 😱😱😱 Now I am looking forward to have the remake of this awesome game!!! 👍👍👍
I always thought the green rocks were materia and deepnsea lab's scientist just discovered a mako well and didn't knew what it was but the planet created a weapon and killed them all thus abandoning the island. This is a nice throwback to ff7.
I forgot many details and scenes from the Final Fantasy series as I played them when I was young and they were coming out. I was having dreams for a while about a Final Fantasy game unlike any other. In one case there was a crystal teal staircase that lead down to an eternal darkness and at the bottom was where I faced this version of Ultima Weapon. A lot of it I guess was just my brains version of fragmented forgotten memories. Only my dreams were on another trippy level.
Wow. The graphics on pc is amazing. So clear and clean
Love the HD mods!
Omg my 1st ff game then ff7 and ff9. I miss my highschool days
Just the same, being kid in the 90's....
This is better than the remaster..
Yes it's full screen
amazing graphic and texture mapping.. and 10 fps per second. amazing.
"10fps per second"... excuse me,what the fuck?
in my first play, I spam every GF in boss fight. then when i learn about junction i never used GF agan. in this video I think he wanted to show fighting scene with HD, good job.
10:00 SQUALL NO YOU'RE GONNA BRING DOWN THE WHOLE OCEAN ON TOP OF YOUR HEADS!
Loved it so much I played it 20 years ago.
My one problem and it was a small one with Omega/Ultima Weapon is that I think they deserved a special theme for fighting them (ala FFVI "Atma Weapon")
Cloud's weapon never gets old.
I normally hate HD remakes but this is awesome everything looks good and matches the original aesthetic. Only thing that doesn’t look good is the font
renzokuken perfectly balanced, as all things should be
Looks great
the best game from Final Fantay series
david handinata ua-cam.com/video/ukF98FAvX4Y/v-deo.html. 👍🏼
It's my favorite.... everyone says it's too mushy. I'm not into romance stories, but this was obviously more than that. People just had a bias because this wasn't their airships and crystals FF. Sorry if a flying school, a dragonesque space ship, and the powers of godly beings weren't archaic enough for them, but I can only see the imagination in this FF for futurizing those concepts.
I also believe the score and themes were Uematsu's Magnum Opus.
david handinata a thousand cheers and 👏's go to you sir. I ate every minute of this game up. It was all I could think about. Never wanted it to end, and was pissed to buy ix and find out it wasn't a continuation of 8.
It's my second favorite, even though I liked some of the things it did better than my actual favorite (which is the overrated one. 😂)
i love it too, but 10-1 is the best by far
This is the best place to get a lot of 100 Curse Spikes from Tri-face then convert it to Dark Matter in order for Quistis to learn her final Limit Break, Shockwave Pulsar.
These mods look great
Wow, this fight was done straight, no cheese tactics that I see on so many other of these.
海洋探査人工島マップきれいで好きだったな
I always loved Renzokuken on Ultima and Omega. Squall goes to work on their asses.
Same with the bahamut fight
Back then i used holy war+meltdown+aura+spam limit break against all the tough bosses (ultima weapon, omega weapon, and ultimecia). I even grinded like a madman until all of my characters reached lvl100. Now i wish i could replay the game, but this time without the intense grinding and holy war.
Great game. Ultima weapon was hard to beat. This game has something that the stronger you level up. They level up as well.
I hated that about it haha. I'm used to being able to grind my way past bosses like this by just levelling way over them 😶
Nope... ultima is just a cakewalk... just one Lionheart would do.
Rinoa limit break "wishing star" actually have a triple effect with the less than 1% chance to be executed.... I've encountered that kind of luck ☺️😁... If only I have record the video at that time as a proof 😑
My God, this looks so good, how or where can I get this version of the game?
if this ever gets a remake, i want them to play the victory fanfare in the commercials
Hey that work is impresive, seeing your videos made me wanna play again so I buyed the game on steam xD like a biatch, is there any method to implement this mods to a steam version? Oh, should I play now or waiting a little bit!? THANKYOU!!
Math Lufther Thank you. :) I don't know if I should be happy or feel bad to get you to buy it. Haha. There are multiple ways to see how. I have links to all the mods in the description. There are videos on UA-cam or you can look at Mcindus's Steam guide to see how to do it yourself. Or you can donate for the launcher that does it all for you. But like I tell people, you don't really need it because it's quite simple to do on your own.
You don't have to wait. I have a few updates in the works, but they are minor ones. At least until the I'm ready for the big stuff again.
Mods, achievements, it's a good inversion x3. Thanks, in fact I googled this evening and i found your posts (and some other great people) on a forum, i've already installed most of them, but i gonna wait a couple of weaks/months for 3.5 SeeD Reborn spanish version (wich is my language version, obviously) I dunno how much does it change respect the 3.2 version but I can wait. Respect donations, am supporting now RPCS3 (nekotekina) and the project of CEMU, but hey, Launcher or not, what youre doing is priceless so i though on it, am not rich but I would feel really bad having talked with a principal modder and not contribuiting on the project, so... YOU HAVE THE FAULT ;-; STOP MAKING ME WASTING MONEY ON FF8!!
Sorry about the spam o-o but am trying to donate on the forum but I only see the account of mindicus (The guy with the avatar of the lion) is it the same account? I mean, i would like to help him in a future (am not rich ;-; am really poor) but o-O you are helping me and you know i dont wanna get the bad account
Math Lufther I understand. Whenever Mcindus is online again I'll ask him on the progress of it. :) I like using CEMU as well and do support it. You don't have to donate if you don't have the money. I, myself, kind of feel uncomfortable still taking money from people. But anything I make from it will be going to charity. Now, as for the page... You'll find it here. steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=391096600 And you'll know it's correct because I'm listed as a contributor. Just know if you run into issues to let us know.
Ok, thanks! it's a shame Lunatic pandora is only avalible in english version, but i will give a try to the english translation this time (Becouse i know that there is some changues in translation, I saw a video the other day 'bout it) xD and please, dont feel bad, you guys are doing a great thing there is so much talent leak in our society and I hope you can get (If not already) paid by doing what you like to do (Whatever it is, I think you like modding/games stuff) >-< well am typing so much again, sorry, THANKS and bye!!!!! (OK NOW FOR REAL!!)
One of my favorite final fantasy games of all time and no to the person who thinks that you are bad at this game is not true I think that you are good
Long time memories... i found the funniest strategy to play it risky and have all of the chars at low health and use limit breaks all the time. So much fun with ff8! Wp👍
This boss wield Cloud's Ultima Weapon
And thus the name of the boss
Yes, it's a nice touch
this boss is the same boss like in ff7, but this time it is holding the sword.
The walk together with arpa sound...
wow this looks good!!!!!!!!
Man i was just about to ask when did they come out with a HD remaster of FF8? I got excited then realized it was a mod :(
shoje82 Sorry about that. Not saying Square won't someday if the FF7 remake does well.
FatedCourage No apology needed. It looks great man keep up the good work! 👍
steam has the remastered ff8 and ff7 just add the mods to the game and you should be fine..... their also getting remastered for the switch to
Better than remastered the background wooww
Hey. Is that clouds ultima sword from ff7 the boss is holding?
Boa Tarde, amigo instalei todos os Mod menos o (GeDoSaTo Downsampling Config v2.2 por Mcindus) que não consigo de forma alguma instalar, tem como me passar uma passo a passo?
What happened to the original boss music? I’m glad they are using the original ps1 score for the remaster 😊
For this particular bossfight this theme has always played
I remember grinding for this fight, sometimes I swear the trip all the way down the steps fighting the iron giants and red dragons was worse than ultima weapon himself.
Personally think they should have made a stage similar to this to get to omega weapon.
graphics still hold today imagine that
Awesome!
No shit, holy war item is like using rugal in kof hahaha
this music is very similar to one soundtrack of brave fencer musashi
好棒的遊戲畫面!
Is there a mod that can let you have every summon at any point in the game?
Glorious Showoff The most you might be able to do is use the tool "Hyne" and just add them in. Should be able to work at any point in the game. But always backup your saves just in case.
Un mundo de FF8 online, sería lo mejor
Wonder if this beast killed cloud and Tom his ultimate sword
collectors83/2015stig well the sword is pretty huge here for Cloud to have held it but that’s one theory. I have a theory that Ultima Weapon IS Cloud, or at least heavily connected with him. And not just because of the sword
do you have a link for the mod please.I have ff8 steam but i dont know how to do this
Now they need to port this to PS4!
hazardoustoxicity good Idea
hazardoustoxicity if they do I'd defo get it
if only - and add the same x3 speeds like ff7
Srsly..i have no idea why they skipped 8
FF8 could be have a good Trophy Set
The best ff for me, first time fight ultima weapon it's like the hardest enemy I've ever fight.
I just realized that's clouds ultimate weapon.
The blade its holding I mean
Does anyone wanna point out that thing is holding a larger version of Cloud’s ultimate weapon? xD
My exact thoughts
did he hold the last weapon for cloud?
Is there a mod that puts the ps1 music into the game?
Man, I never could ever beat the secret boss. At least I know it's possible.
With heros and holy wars everithing is possible!
Use aura before holy war, switch rinoa with irvine...use limit break every time
Irvine's limit break is boss as hell.
Do you have any Vid explaining how to instal this? Because I would love to play like this.
Paulo Faria No vid or anything as of yet. But there are tutorial videos already out on UA-cam that'll show you how.
Still this is great I'm gonna look for it
HD mods looks nice... :)
Fretless Sunday Thank you. :) I and other modders appreciate you like them.
I remember playing this part back in the day, and the encounter rate of strong monsters on the floors leading up to Ultima Weapon were ridiculously high! I notice here, they’re not. Any explanation? Please and thank you...
You can't allow Zell to open up the halfway floor(or simply not have him in your party) and you must equip Diablos' Enc-None ability in order to make it to the bottom of the dungeon without encountering any enemies. Otherwise, enemy encounters will be either fixed or plentiful.
@@darinlunderman8063 I think enc none doesn't even work here.
USE AURA MAGIC and just trigger the LIONHEART or USE ZELL's DUEL and you're done. ULTIMA WEAPON is EASY to kill.
all game is easy, it's all about renzokuken
How did you manage to not get all the Random Fights on your Way down to the Boss? Not even ENC 0% from Diabolos could save me from them.
Schall-Rauch you have to evenly distribute all of the steam quantities, and don’t have Zell trying to use the controls at the last terminal. By memory anyway, I haven’t played in a while 🤷🏼♂️
How did you just walk down? Diablo’s no attack perk doesn’t work down there.
It does work. But only if you use the power given to you properly and not have Zell bust open the door. If Zell does, then it negates Diablos' Encounter-None.
took me less then 3 min to finish him. cast slow on irvine, shot 60 fast ammo in 1 go, lionheart and repeat first 2 attack on zell.
good old time zell limit break only, 0.20s per hit, each around 5k-7k dame => 350k dame
Hi Fated, when will this mod be finished?
Andreas Which mod?
the new backgrounds for FF8. The MCINDUS ultramods still list the old ones. I like this one so much more :PP
Andreas Oh! It is out. It's just not part of the installer. Mcindus and others think my backgrounds should have smoother edges like Project Eden's. So I'm slowly trying to do it.
Ohhh where can I get it? Can I add you on steam?
I found the mod, but I'd still like to pm you if you're willing to. Cheers, and thanks for the mod !
What is the name of the song battle?
Where can find this HD vision?
I used squalls lion heart ability on ultimata weapon made short work of him was fully levelled up at the time great times playing this game
Wow this HD
Isnt that thé ultima weapon of cloud? Becasue its look l'île thé same sword but hé is more big o.o
It is indeed!
How were you not thrown into 10,000 fights on the way there?
Anybody know the reason why the ultima weapon from 8 has clouds ultima weapon sword from 7?
john hartsell well the most straight forward reason would be that its a nod to the previous game? A sort of cameo if you will.
i didn't remember that Squall's Blasting Zone can pass the 9999 dmg cap
Mods
Back the days i was playing this game so long..... Today just watch on UA-cam lazy see so long fight soni just scoll final battle hahaha to see the ending hehehehe
the best team always rinoa , irvine and squall XD
hey. thats Cloud’s Sword
nice.. that was quick... i was hope lion heart will finish it off.. :)
Killing Ultima in 1 turn by Zells Limit Break and Squall only
Cerberus - triple aura - hero
Repeat
Easy ultima weapon actually..
ขอวิธีโหลด เอามาเล่นในคอมหน่อยค่ะ เราอยากเล่นมาก แต่ไม่รู้วิธีโหลด ชอบมาก คิดถึงยุคนั้นเลยค่ะ
I remember when i fight ultima weapon but i forgot to draw eden
FF9 have last boss Eden
If you forgot to draw GF from boss, bosses in Ultimecia's castle have them.
Let Squal do his limit break... you'll get Lion Heart if you are lucky... the enemy will suffer 9999 multiple times
is there any way to make your game more difficoult? is there some mod that can do that?
P6lishB6kser There is a mod/add-on I have linked that can up enemy difficulty. But if you want a better challenge, then try "Requiem" I believe it's called? Should be compatible.
I forgot to mention that I use psx version :) I found patch for it but it doesn't seem to work :/
Oh. Hm... I'm not sure if there was a patch for the PSX or not. It's not something I've looked into. I know Sega Chief is tinkering with a difficulty mod, but it could take awhile for it to come out.
I was thinking about difficulty mod made by Colly forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=11026.0 but as I said, there are no changes in the game when im using it :/
Well, shoot. Must've missed this reply. Did you ever get it to work? It's strange that none of the PSX patches or installers are doing anything...
Big cloud blade ff7 8)
hi are u using pc or xbox 360 controller
Michelle M Xbox One controller. But I've tested them all.
Such an inefficient way of killing that thing
the remaster won't be that mind boggling... they really need to redo the environment assets anew if they want to call it a proper remaster, I don't mind the character models but the environment really begs for a refresh
How do you make the text boxes transparent? I mean in my version of the mod the boxes that should be are of an even more solid dark grey color than the normal ones
420praiseit I don't think you can? If everything looks the same as in this video then everything should be good. Everything that's transparent works normally for me. Unless I'm missing something.
I think it has to do with the menu gradients contained in 'iconflmaster_14', because if I delete that file everything is fine in HD but the menu gradients which are back to low res, but at least I regain the transparent text boxes...I have the Italian version btw... Maybe I should go to Qhimm to ask McIndus in the Seed Reborn topic... Thanks for answering though
420praiseit Strange... Guess I never noticed. But Mcindus might be able to figure it out. He's the main man behind that mod and more knowledgeable than I.
hey 420! does your italian iconflmaster_14 have a black background or a transparent one?
Hi Mcindus! Black background; while iconfl00_14, iconfl01_14 and iconfl03_14 have a black background too, iconfl02_14's is white.
