      They're both excellent for different reasons, but VIII edges it over VII for me too. I think part of that might be that Uematsu had more experience writing for the PSX sound chip for VIII, whilst he originally started work on VII for the SNES before moving to the PSX. I don't know how much he had composed/completed at that point, but it's definitely food for thought!

      You can even encounter this kind of music even at a grocery store. I remember when I went to Hong Kong Supermarket way back in 2006, Balamb Garden was playing in that background.

    I come back to listen to this song to suffer. I yearn so badly for the peace, comfort, and innocence I felt when this song would play as I watched my brother play Final Fantasy 8. I was still too young to understand, I couldn’t ever make it past Ifrit’s Cavern. It physically hurts my body and soul to hear this, knowing there was ever a period in time I could feel this happy. My brain has warped this memory so strongly it almost feels like I haven’t smiled a single time since then.
    I’ve been struggling to find a reason to live, to be honest. I spend every waking minute drowning in a pool of deep nostalgia, knowing I could never hope to be even a fraction as content and blissful as I was in my childhood. Why continue fighting this losing battle? I have never met a single person that could give me one valid reason to stay alive.

      That's childhood for you. All our childhoods are so nice. Our young brains don't even know we are being abused unless the abuse is really bad. We felt love and safe. I think in adulthood, the path to feeling grounded and at peace is to find something you want to do and do it. Could be a profession or a hobby. Something that gives meaning and purpose and joy.

    i remember when i was a kid, and my parents where guests over a good friends house. they where talking and chattin, and i was allowed to play the only game that was on the house. ff8 on ps1. i'm german, and the game was all english. i've never played a game for such a long time. they didnt stop talking, so i was able to play the game almost the whole night. now i'm 30, and i still play this game. sometimes on the road, i use an emulator. sometimes at home, on my ps4. sometimes just for fun. both of my parents are dead now, but they shared the same dream - to never forget your fantasy. and that my friends, is final.

      I think if you were to level up Quistis and Rinoa (and everyone tbf) whilst having Squall KOed all the time it might be doable? I'm relatively sure I read that the enemies only scale in level to Squall, with the exception of some bosses, so I guess just having the handicap of one less party member is the challenge!

      No matter what kind of RPG game you play, you need to stay in that 1 mission for grinding. If you don't grind, you don't stand a chance to beat the game. There are people who ignores that extra sidequest because they only want enough experience points to beat the game. Best of all, you have save state to begin with. People who claims they cannot beat it just meant they were busy and would rather just move on from that game and never look back. Any RPG is normally supposed to give people a reason to explore long term. If you have to back up a step to gain more level up, do that. You will discover that it won't be that hard. We all read guides online to find out where we all want to go. Luckily Balamb Garden theme song does not require you to beat the game.
