I read this big-ass post about the events of Final Fantasy 8, and I have to say, it's pretty interesting.

It's way too big to post. Just go to the site and read.

It's the same thing I've always thought. o.O

But researched.

And the exact reason I prefer 8 over 7 by far.

A friend mentioned to me a while back that he thought Squall died at the end. I didn't get it but now I totally get it. Makes sense.

... Well, I'll be. Whether or not this is true, I am spontaneously going to choose this theory of Squall having died early on because otherwise, we'll have to just accept that the guys at Square were on some serious drugs the night they had come up with all post-disc-1 storyline for this game.

I'm not gonna take anybody seriously that says "Eyes on Me" is a horrible song. :P

That, and I don't like all these random theories bouncing around. They're so dang confusing. I find it makes much more sense to take the game at face value. That, and IT'S A VIDEO GAME.

I like this theory, it kinda makes the game make more sense.

I won't believe it!
I have no reason to say that actually. Besides that I don't think they can be so subtle on purpose.

I like this theory much better than if all of what happened was real... Awesome find, thanks.

I will admit, I never noticed that "hole Squall" image in the ending sequence. It must've been one of them that flashed by towards the end.

Yeah, it's on the screen for like 1 frame, though once you see it, you can't un-see it.

Actually, it makes him look just like Ultimecia's final form... She had a hole in her face too.

Man, this game is weird.

lol yeah, I had the urge, too.

The game really does make a lot more sense when you think of it this way while playing it.

My love for it only grew. ^_^
