Don't forget the shitty ass time travel and the abandoned spaceship that was abandoned in the middle of space that had a life support and oxygen system that was abandoned and had no one inside despite being being habitable in the middle of space.Crimson_Dragoon said:This may be beating a dead horse, but Final Fantasy VIII.
Just about every important character in the game (main bad guy included) is from the same orphanage, but most of them don't remember it because of some arbitrary plot element seemingly pulled out of the writer's asses. What's that? GF's make you forget things? How could we not know this beforehand? And why didn't Squall remember he was from the same orphanage as about half his school before he even got his first GF?
Then again, I always got the impression with that game that there were 2 groups of writers: one working on the first half, and another working on the second half, and these 2 groups rarely talked to each other.
Did I mention that there was a spaceship that they just happened to be able to pilot in the MIDDLE OF FUCKING SPACE that just HAPPENED to have oxygen and just HAPPENED to have enough fuel to get back to Earth?
Don't get me wrong, I love that game to pieces, but that fucking writing makes me want to slap someone.
Also, my nominee for Shittiest Plot Twist Next To FF VIII's Entire Second Half goes to Sazh shooting himself but not really, in FF XIII. Seriously, if I spoilered that, it would just piss you off when you actually see it.
