If there were a way to tally up my most viewed video clips across my lifetime this (plus a few other FFVIII clips) would be right up there near the top of the list. Made me a hardcore fan long before I ever even played the game.

i feel like this game is unfairly maligned nowadays nothing in the wake of FF7 was going to be as satisfying but it's not as bad as people say it is

The opening fmv alone sold me on this game when I first watched it. Liberi Fatali is a banger!

This song and intro still holds up so well. I love everything about it
