Thought it might be interesting to see what people think of the Aeons in this game. Choose a favourite and tell us why, or pick one you can't help but dislike, or even talk about them all! I like to talk so I thought this might be a good area to cover.
First of all I think the aeons are just amazing looking - even better that you get to control them instead of just doing their own thing and heading off to drink pyrflies (can never spell that one) or something.
I never used them much throughout the game but they are interesting to play with on spare time. (Yes they are great with being trained up to full strength, but I'm talking about the most eye catching stuff..you know what I mean!)
Valefor - Interesting bird like creature! I love the fact how from the start it seemed like it and Yuna had a special bond. Even more awe-inspiring when It came swifty and caught her in midair to assist her escape. Totally fell in love with it! Hurt me the most to have to kill it in the end :cry: . Like stabbing a best buddy in the back! Anyways, it's overdrives weren't anything special (Not even Energy Blast), great story for the aeon - useless otherwise in my opinion.
Ifrit - Can you say amazing Hellish Demon! Looks great and it's over drive is just kickarse - not the best - but pretty damn good considering you think all he had was the fire ball - untill he picks up a huge freaking bolder without a sweat! Not to mention the whole self healing with just casting fire on itself. Simply pure awesomeness!
Ixion - Very neat design - A unicornish Aeon with electrifying powers! Looks don't make up for it's over drive though - Thors Hammer wasn't worthy enough for something that looked this good! But again the healing with it's natural magic source is good.
Shiva - Absolutely Stunning! Sleek, Stylish and Sexy! Not to mention the grand entrance! Comming in all powerful and busting out with class! Making servant Yuna hold her cape! And don't forget her Cheeky Overdrive! Nothing beats calling up and ice storm to freeze foes and distroy them with a sly SNAP of the fingers. Now that's a woman! (So to speak)
Bahamut - Very dark, powerful and demonish look. His entrance was none other than pure strength and skill! But again it's the Ixion dilema - amazing disposition - CRAPPY OVERDRIVE! The megaflare in FFVII was much better! This Aeon diserved so much more! But it does make up for the faults with physical strength. Can't beat brutality and good looks ;)
Yojimbo - Loved the ancient Japanese samurai entrance! It was art! But talk about getting paid for laziness! Not to mention the fayths greed for an obscene amount of money for an aeon that wasn't even worth it! This Aeon annoied me! I paid him 200,000 Gil and all he did was his dagger-throwing ability Daigoro. I could've bought out a store! (Not literally, but you catch the drift) I did however like the dog type creature that came with it - quaintly cute. It reminded me of the foot-stool from Beauty & The Beast (Disney Movie), believe it or not. Otherwise completely useless (Except for getting the magus sisters.. :mad2: ) and annoying.
The Magus Sisters - How do you spell Ugly and Annoying! Their entrance was colourful and all, but that doesn't make up for their PMS like personalities. Take a break me arse! The only thing I did enjoy about them was their combined overdrive - encasing their enemies in a pyramid and shooting multiple non-elemental energy rays at the victim. How do you say lazer packin war! And Mindy's Passado which attacks 15 times consecutively against one enemy. Otherwise completely and drastically annoying...especially how they seem to do much better against you than with you!!...AND don't forget the ugly part! :tongue:
Anima - Saving the best for last! Not only does this bad boy come with the looks of an incredibly large bloody zomie - bound 'cause it's too strong for even itself! But also has one major bombin overdrive! Sure he lacks on the upperground area...but completely makes up for it with the bottom half! Once I saw that he even had a bottom half that just rockem socked the enemy - I was all HELL YEA! from there :D . Absolutely Incredible, not to mention it's extra neat getting to use an Aeon that belongs to the bad guy! My favorite - along with Shiva.
Well I think that's all I have to say. I look forward to seeing everyones thoughts! :love: ~Sky~
