The FF characters

[loza]

have u eva noticed that neerly all the FF characters have the same personalaty?

e.g. Selphie and Rikku, Dagger and Yuna

[Ceil]

...right. You ever write a fantasy story? Square uses some pretty basic personalities for their characters. And? They gotta be doing something right. People still buy the games and love the characters, and love Square for it.

[Primus Inter Pares]

Well, if they used ORIGINAL characters we might not play their games anymore *cough*

I'm sorry, but aren't there only so many personalities people can have?

Every game needs an annoying happy-go-lucky comic relief character, prefferably a thief. Thats just the say it is, you're not the only one who hates it. :mad:

[The_Great_Question]

Actually your on to something there....Anyway i could write an essay about different personalities in video games, BUT im gonna keep it simple...

In ALMOST every game of FF there is..

The Cool Strong Loner ie. Cloud, Squall, Auron, Nooj, Vincent
The Cheery Positive Person ie. Rikku, Eiko Yuffie, Selphie
The Oaf ie Steiner, Cait Sith, Irvine, Wakka
The Negative but Heroic ie Barret, Lulu, Paine, Amarant
The Mild and Beautiful ie Aeris, Rinoa, Garnet, Yuna
The Comical Relief ie Cait Sith, Zell...Zidane,Tidus
AND......

THE VILLIANS ie Sephiroth(All Hail), Seifer, Ultimecia, Kuja, Sin and Mr Veggie

see its not another Square Enix conspiracy!
COUGH! MOBILE PHONES IN ADVENT CHILDREN COUGH!

Anyway i hope that helps

Never said better.

In a way, it is kinda fun, because with each new game that they show us we have fun by trying to guess who will be the next Selphie. :)

[Chris]

Who was "Selphie" in FFIX?

[DJZen]

And who was the "Selphie" in FFII?

Obviously you weren't paying attention.

Jeez, DJZen, you don't remember ol' UVWXYZ? Hated her. :eyebrow:

And Chris, I would say Zidane had Selphieitis.

Perhaps the fault doesn't lie with square's boring characters, but with people in the world all behaving similarly.

Draw a few generalizations, and you have a set of characters where everyone might find at *least* one to identify with.

[blackmage_nuke]

also the youngest one is always a girl and usually really hypo
relm
yuffie
selphie
rikku

and the old ones are ussually guys who are weird and mysterious
strago
nanaki? or vincent
auron

No it's really Square's fault. They made the games, thus they're responsible for all the content.
