Did anyone find it weird that Edea still looked like this when she wasn't possessed by Ultimecia anymore and briefly joined your party? Why didn't she change to her casual clothes? Her true personality doesn't fit this look at all.
And why does Ultimecia look so dirty? Even as Edea she looks like she has dirt all over her face.

Because Final Fantasy 8 was the start of the Squeenix trainwreck, and project quality took a nose-dive as it ensued.

What you are seeing are just some of the numerous developer oversights and plotholes in this game.

>> No.3957189

You have to admit it's a pretty spiffy look though. I'd keep it for a bit.

>> No.3957221

The only time you see her in casual clothes were in flashbacks from a decade before the game. This is how she looks during the main story, possessed or not.

Being a sorceress does whack shit to your body. Adel in particular is a notable example in that she was fucking huge and possessed a very masculine appearance.

Yup. The planned merger dragged on and on and on. And really, the corporate culture was already there.

Look it up.

At any point in the game that you saw Edea dressed like this -- she was susceptible to be possessed at any time and was dangerous iirc

Laziness finds the way even when they butcher other games in order to make one.

That's impossible, for Squall is dead and everything after disc 1 was his dying mind's fever dream.

By respect for Ultimecia who certainly took hours to choose that outfit and do that makeup.

>>3960746

there might be symbolism or something there, but I don't think it's supposed to be literal. SE have a lot of lookalike characters anyway. Lightning is basically female Cloud. Yuna looks somewhat like Rinoa also, to me at least.

I would imagine they hooked back when they were both young and he wasn't a middle aged fatass.
