  • FFVIII is a strange one. Once you get into junctioning and card modding enemies / refining cards into junction materials, the game breaks wide open, and encounters become optional.

    Not even kidding. One of the GFs lets you reduce encounter rates, or even turn them off. Since all enemies out-scale you as you level up, it’s actually best to never fight, and just junction to increase stats.

    It’s bizarre, but I actually liked playing it. Interesting change of pace to make a beeline through the story with the game’s own systems. I don’t like using exploits in games, but FFVIII isn’t quite the same, since it kinda… encourages it?

    It’s one of the best games I’ve played that I can’t recommend to anyone.
