Oh Ye Of Little Faith... Yes, it is finally here. Final Fantasy 8. Nothing
much is known about this game yet, since Squaresoft has tried to keep it
under wraps. They have however, given a press conference in Japan where
a few details to the game were given. A few images were also shown, all
of which I am showing down below. You can also see that there is a text
version of the press conference given by Squaresoft. I also have listed
all information on the only characters released by Squaresoft which
are Squall Leonhart, Laguna Loire, and two characters named Zell and Lenore.
Their bios are also listed below. So if any of you have any additional
information it would be gladly appreciated.
Currently, there are only two known characters from Final Fantasy 8.
It is expected that 3 other characters, a female and two males, will be
released at a later date. Come back often for any updates.
Squall Leonhart
He is described as an expressionless, distant 17-year old boy. Apparently,
these character traits transcend into him have a carelessness for himself and
others. There have already been parallels drawn between Squall and the Final
Fantasy VII character Cloud Stryfe. Squall's weapon of choice is a gun-blade,
which is a strange mix between a sword and a gun.
Laguna Loire
He is described as a friendly and outgoing 27-year old, who has earned
the respect of many people. Although initially a soldier, Laguna changed
professions and became a journalist. Laguna has a generous but righteous
streak, and is not afraid to stand up for what he believes in. Confirmation
at the Squaresoft conference of Laguna's gender ended much debate about it
which arose from the name Laguna.
Zell
Nothing is known about this character except that he is male.
Lenore
Nothing is known about this character except that she is female.
