Um, did you even play Final Fantasy 8 or did you just have no idea at what you were doing?

All the items you need for Squalls weapon, Adamantine, Dragon Fang and Pulse Ammo can all be gathered before you are finished with disc one. And none of these come from 1 time encounters. Well, maybe a couple one time encounters also drop them, but you can get them easily enough from other sources. And Squalls weapon is the only one really with upgrading. I think Quistis had some benefit to, not 100%.

The real problem with FF8 was how easy it is to break the game with the card game. Of course you don't HAVE to play the CG, but the game basically shoves it down your throat.

I guess my list would be.

Pulse ammo was not easy to find and the components required to make it were also used for other weapons/quests. The only way to get it was in disk 2 or 3 (I forget which) in that high tech town, which was either random drop or from mugging a limited encounter monster.

The card game wasn't what broke FF8, it was the combination of being able to hit level 99 after 2 hours on the starting island and being able to junction drain hp on your attack for your characters so you'd never have to heal against anything except for the 2 undead creatures in the game.
