[TomVfan]

Bringing back lots of memories from when I played it at school which was... a million years ago if i'm counting correctly.

[Fraga1ma]

What i didn't understand about this game was how you wouldn't get XP from boss fights.

[ShadowWolf401]

Ok lets do this I got nothing to do tonight and Im off tomorrow.

[shapoot1]

OMFG its the game I WANT THE MOVIE!!!!!! GRRRR I KNEW IT LOOKED A LITTLE MESSED UP WHENIT CAME ON!

[Kzar5678]

Mom: Go to bed.

Me: 'K. One more video?

Mom: I suppose...

Me: heh heh heh =D

[misterlauj1]

i though this was the movie not the game

[soldiviner]

I've got all day. DarkKobold, you are god!

[taobmc]

'the end'? I don't remember that!

[CrankyCrabChaos]

So, could someone explain to me how luck manipulation works? While I love TAS video's, I couldn't find a description of what it is (though I grasp the general idea just from the name of it.)

@CrankyCrabChaos

i think it means, you repeat a sequence where you draw a ability until you get the maximum amount of spells of it, or you attack over and over again until you critically hit the enemy

[CrankyCrabChaos]

@termana1 So, do you mean like save states, where you constantly reload until every hit is a crit?

[termana1]

@CrankyCrabChaos

yeah right, basically you controle the games randomness, wich means you repeat something until it works the way you want it to

[gigantomaquia]

I remember my battle with ultimecia, It took me 3 exact hours to defeat her. I recorded the end in a vhs <3 thanks for bring back such good memories my friend (:

[NorCalibrator]

So my question....how long did this mother fucker take to upload?

[dada78641]

@NorCalibrator The file was about 19.5GB, just under the maximum filesize. Took just under 6 hours to upload. The original file was actually much bigger than 480p (well over 1080p) but Youtube failed to process it properly because of its size. Searching is also broken. That's why I made a version that's cut up into smaller pieces (see the sidebar).

[Otterrat]

25870 reloads? that's a hell of a lot of save scumming for luck manipulation there. *grabs 20 bowls of popcorn*

[Chizzad623]

You sir are crazy. Well done though!

[ZakutaAsura]

I kind of hoped that the person doing this would hold a direction with the van driving into town - makes the van look like it is skidding into the area.

[adagdag]

squall's name should've been Z in the first place.

[mydxmproblem]

@adagdag "..." would've been a more appropriate name

[VegeXP]

@mydxmproblem ''...whatever'' or ''facepalm'' would work too

[D3STINY22]

*sob* brings tears to my eyes, this is the very very 1st game i ever layed my eyes upon and it tears me up of all the memories from the past up till now

[ZZtheCat2]

Eight hours for Final Fantasy VIII, huh.

Well! Better get some popcorn...

[RUL1S88]

@ZZtheCat2

Why watching it if you already defeated FF8?

[jacklihk]

DUDES!

I've been waiting someone to do a FF8 run for sooooooo many years!!!

[Joltzdude139]

Nicely done! This is my favorite final fantasy!

[Badazztard]

Wow, this is running really smooth.

[Mysterious0Bob]

Eight hours.

Good god.

[masterzio]

[evandroferreiradanie]

OH YES!!!!! [2] Man, I can't belive!

[elyc]

OH YES!!!!
