FF8 AI Remake

That Quistis

She wants, and she wants it NAO.

Somehow, when she says GF, I cant help but think she is trying to say girlfriend.

She wants to do a "junction" with Squall, that is for sure.

There were many mistakes through the video, but the only one I genuinely laugh was the telephone scene:



The doctor left the room to call Quistis, but the telephone was in the room.

Plus, WTF is this phone?

Overall, I feel if there a proper direction and finer control of the aspects, I think you can get pretty interesting results with this.

I mean, I geuinelly enjoyed watching this, though mostly because it is FF8.

Im not unbiased, but I dont think I ever feel this was a bore or unwatchable.

Haters gonna hate, but this is my non aggressive comment on that.

it's certainly a neat thought experiment if taken at face value

Stupid as *** and I legitimately hope everyone involved gets cancer.

slop

didn't watch the whole thing, but isn't 11min a lot longer than most AI content made now? or is that just single-scene?

A lot of AI content is a single prompt output that produces one continuous piece. This type of content is relatively short due to the limits of the context window.

Agentic models use a series of prompts to generate and patch together pieces using 'skills' (interfaces for the model to act in a determinative manner). There is also the possibility of human involvement in editing. There's basically no length limit aside from what you're willing to spend on compute for models of this kind, you can add more agent layers to create and combine multiple scenes and keep each scene within one context window's limits.

As far as the actual video, FF8 was my favorite offline FF and I still only made it like 30 seconds. Repeating the same dialogue and the flat tones and mismatched lip movements, ugh. That's not to say the tech can't eventually reach a point where it's viable.

My guess is a transition toward a model where the AI creates 3D assets and builds an intermediary format that controls the camera, placement, and tunables like lip movement/dialogue, then another tool is used to render the final scene. A model like that would allow much easier fine tuning and localization than the current method (which is mostly just repeating and praying your output is usable enough to patch together).

yeah graphically it is fine, but the facial expressions and voices are extremely bad.

love that meme

I can see SE raging at this, though. They could easily do this for every game they ever made and someone would probably buy it.

I know it's a "fan work" but it's a bit silly, and not cause of the AI but cause of the person that prompted it (he also left lots of silly mistakes in, which someone that cared would not).

She didn't need to change before the fight (esp since she didn't do anything), putting the gunblade in ifrits mouth was silly, not having Ques or Shiva involved in the fight ruins the fight etc

Complaining about it being AI, Square Enix are going to use AI themselves soon. Honestly, they probably already are. Almost all game companies are going to, cause *spoiler* game companies that are public only care about money and investors.

You think these people care about art, putting people out of work that cost them so much money or anything else?

Also AI in this kind of work, when done by someone that cares:

That was a funny part.

Feels like the author wanted to do some shameless fanservice.

Like, she feeling hot and uses a pretty revealing outfit.

While Squall is still using his pants and fur coat inside the cave.

burn it with fire

Can I report this thread for low effort? Shitposting is higher effort than this.

I like to see how AI is progressing, but I cannot stand videos titled like this. "FFVIII Remake - Full Movie" baits people into watching something that is clearly fake or a fan made project. It fools people into thinking SE is actually working on this, when they are clearly not.

Preventing Karppa from making new threads would go a long way.
