Final Fantasy VIII has a fantastic soundtrack that needs no enhancements, especially since said enhancements tend to detract from the charm and composition of the original (looking at you X and X-2 Remaster). You know what I’m thankful hasn’t been changed? The music, which is still the same PS1 quality. As a bonus quality of life change, load times have been significantly improved as area and scene transition load times are virtually instantaneous. Other visual touches include redone weapon models, improved anti-aliasing, FMVs at 1080p, updated spell and command effects, updated and rescaled backgrounds, and updated text fonts. Seeing NPC faces clearly and actually recognizing them truly conveys how strong and distinctive their personalities are, and how much that stood out back in the PS1 days, despite their faces being a hot mess of pixels. It’s not just the protagonists either - every NPC, GF (Guardian Forces, the summons of this entry), monster, and boss has been given the graphical overhaul. It’s rather funny because I often forget how much better looking the characters are until I get a pleasant eyeful during one of the admittedly very cool angled shots that often come during victory poses. Especially since now Squall’s looks aren’t left to the imagination anymore: The newly smoothed out character models are by far the biggest draw to this re-release, as being able to clearly see not only your party members but every other character in the game is oddly satisfying. However, not only did Square Enix surprise us with that announcement during their E3 2019 presentation, but then delivered an even bigger surprise: that the game would be getting a visual facelift.

Your third character ( I used Quistis for mighty guard although it wasn't really necesarry) should be supporting with Aura and phoenix downs when needed.Final Fantasy VIII Remastered is a miracle of sorts, as it was believed that the source code for the original version was gone. Auto Haste can be a big help in getting more attacks in between omega's attacks.

Just make sure you get Vit-0 on him with meltdown and keep hitting him with Squall and Irvine's limit breaks. The third character without defend can summon a gf to take the hit for them although if unlucky they might still die.Ħ) Ultima - Not really a problem, just make sure your HP is high and keep pummeling him with renzokuken/ammoħ) Light Pillar - This will kill one of your characters, revive them asap and keep hitting omega.Īfter Light Pillar he rotates back to meteor and repeats the same pattern. It's a good idea to have revive on one of the characters with defend too, just in case you get the timing wrong and one of your characters stops defending before he uses the move. You need to have the defend ability, (Learned from Brothers & Cactuar) any character using defend will take 0 damage from the hits. Keep attacking him until he actually uses Gravija, then you want to use a megalixir and prepare for the next attackĥ) Terra Break - This is one to watch out for. Even if you're on 1 hp though you can't be killed by Gravija. For now keep hitting him with all you've gotĤ) Gravija - if you'd prefer you can heal after megiddo flame to stop the chance of him killing any of your party with a physical attack between that and gravija. Make sure you have 100 Death junctioned to ST-Def-J to every character to avoid instant failure.Ģ) Next is meteor, use a megalixir to get back to 9999HP as soon as meteor is used (You can get 100 megalixirs by card modding Bahamut)ģ) Megiddo Flame, the reason you need to heal back to 9999, this attack will hit everyone in your party for 9998 damage, leaving you with 1 hp. Keep in mind that Omega can also use a regular physical attack between these attacks at any point.ġ) Omega always starts the battle with Level 5 death. This is not as hard as some people might tell you, you just need to learn Omega's attack pattern and know what to do to deal with it.
