Locke keeps his dead girlfriend in a basement.

Your thoughts on this?

Better than keeping a live girlfriend in a basement

Celes took it pretty well, actually.

And trapped by a slave crown and one could argue that Strago has Relm under house arrest the way he tries to keep her in her room when the party firsts visits.

Wow, this game does like to subjugate women. :eek:

Having the two pseudo-lead characters as females was just an elaborate ploy to hide it's sexist undertones.

Having an old man by her side staring at her dead body is kind of weird too.

It's easy to make jokes about, but the game wanted it to be romantic and sympathetic so that's how I see it.

I think she's suposed to be sort of "reserverd" and he is only interested in bringing her back to life, so it's ok.

Perhaps Locke's a necrophiliac?

One dead girl in the basement is sick and twisted perfectly normal game logic.

No wait.

If he was why would he bring her back to life? :cool:

Rachel's and Darill's deaths are the two saddest moments in Final Fantasy VI in my opinion. And it is the reason why I like Setzer and Lock that much. They both have a dramatic past. Terra's is sad, too. But I like Lock's and Setzer's past more than Terra's.

LOL.

Doesn't count if your trying to bring them back to life - either that or Locke hasn't quite go necrophilia right yet...:jess:

I think it's beyond creepy to keep a dead anything in your basement...
Also...who exactly is that old man? Her father? o.o

I don't think it is so bad for Locke, he just stashed her there and went gallivanting around the world. It is truly creepy for whoever is actually living in the house. Or maybe he didn't tell them and just locked up his room in the basement and left :)

At least Edgar only goes after the living ones :p

But he asks Relm how old she is so, well...

Joke.

So basically, FFVI was an outlet for Squares sexual fetish frustration?

I don't think it would be her father; their family never wanted anything to do with him again after she lost her memory, if I remember correctly. He's just some creepy old man.

It's just wrong. I would put a pretty dead girl like that in a glass case for my living room coffee table.

You think its sadder then Doma castle being poisoned? Or Cyan chasing after the ghosts of his dead wife and son? I think Doma castle/phantom train were the saddest moments in the game. And Maybe the suicide scene (cause yes I kill cid every time much more dramatic that way) Actually this game is chock full of tragedy isnt it...

The creepy old guy is a creepy old scientist guy who preserved the body and just watches it while laughing at the fact she is dead or something. He was smurfed up.

What intrigues me is how Locke claims Celes reminds him so much of Rachel. Yet it is Terra he protects because she's lost her memory (like Rachel did). Exactly what about Celes is so much like Rachel? Not that Rachel had much of a personality, but she doesn't seem similar to Celes at all.

I'm going to guess it is in the millions of subtle facial features and body language cues you could never pick up in an SNES game.
