Exploring FF8's Cut Content

In this episode we look back over evidence of lost aspects of the Final Fantasy VIII story - many of which made production and others that didn't, which in light of Yoshinori Kitase's interview stating Laguna Loire was meant to occupy 50% of the overall FF8 story has made it increasingly speculated upon as to what form that would take. Here we look back over evidence found in FF8 Ultimania volumes and other sources to see where Squall and Laguna, along with others such as Seifer Almasy, may have been elevated in an original draft.

A big shout out to FF8 aficionado FF8FansChannel who let me use their Winhill footage of Laguna Loire. You can check out their channel page and video from here:    • Final Fantasy VIII EXTRA: Laguna's Car
