what a weird fucking game! just really really strange. obviously and easily the worst of the ps1 ff games but still what a fascinating little thing this is and to be honest i had a lot of fun. the plot is kind of incoherent and shit just... Happens all the fuckin time but there are some story beats which are genuinely really effective, i grew to really care about squall as he showed more sides of himself than just broody late 90s teen and the romance at the center of the story is pretty good. the draw and junction systems are a really big mixed bag, on one hand its fun to minmax your stats but on the other hand it makes some fights drag on way too long and it incentivizes never using items or spells in a way i dont really like. still tho i did way more bonus content in this game than either 7 or 9 for some reason and i enjoyed my time with it, definitely not a game for everyone but i think its worth checking out at least once
