As much as I know how normal attack dominates early FFs in the series, FF8 is one of the worse at it. Junction system's "dare use any spells? sacrifice your stats! Oh wait your normal attack which cost nothing is stronger than spells to begin with" is a terrible design failure for me...
If we're going to talk about RegularAttack/Magic Unbalance, you have FF7 there waiting for you.
I loved the game back when i had my PS1, but really. After the second half of Disc 2 all your attacks were 9999, and with the ability to multiply the Double Cut Materia and then further increase it to Quadruple Cut...Damn.
That made 98% of all Materia useless, the rest being Final Attack, Pheonix and Knights of the round[Looong ass summon Sequence], and of course, Double Cut.... Other usefull materia would be X-Item that glitched allowing you to Multiply all those Sexy MegaElixirs up to 99, making you even more of a raping machine D=
