My opinion about this game might be tainted by the fact that this is my first Final Fantasy game. It might have been my first jrpg after Pokemon and Super...
Honestly I agree. Theres a whole history in the time that comes after 8 where SeeD is an active force for a very long time. At the same time if you consider this a time travel story, it takes place at the start of SeeD which makes sense if you consider the true sorceress from the future trying to thwart her enemy before they ever become a threat. I think one of the places where the story fall apart is that we get no explanation of who she is other than that she wants to do the big bad. I think it would be interesting to have a game that explores that end of things.
