The list is confusing to say the least. At least for me.

The Best Characters of Final Fantasy - Games Feature at IGN

They seem to have forgotten that the games made after 6 were still final fantasy.
There's second page too.Quote:

Too many from IV and VI. I never saw the appeal of Edge neither story or gameplay-wise and speaking of his gameplay they failed to mention how horrible he is at stealing and how low his def is. Looks like everyone loves Vivi which I'm entirely ok with.
I really didn't like any of their choices on the first page from FFIV, as much as I adore the game I feel that they're very bland characters and are far from the "best".
Also, wheres gilgamesh from FFV? Dudes amazing. Him not being in there is just a disgrace.
It almost seemed as if they were like "Here's a few Final Fantasy games we like and these are a few of the characters" instead of cherry picking them for actual quality. IGN, why must you always suck at everything?
Some of them are perfectly fine (Kefka, Tellah, Cid, Ultros, Vivi) but were they on crack when writing the others? I can't think how anyone playing though the game found any love for the likes of Celes or Quistis. Both were some of the blandest characters in that game. Light was mostly deadpan and Palom and Porom were pretty annoying..
Edge is more notable than Shadow? You so crazy, IGN. The rest of their choices were interesting, at least. Not the biggest FF8 fan, but Laguna definitely stole every scene he was in.
As much as I like Edge *points to username*, I gotta agree, he doesn't really fit on a top 20 list. Does no one on this thread like Locke???
No Sazh? Look, love it or hate XIII, Sazh was one of the better characters the series has seen. I love IV and VI, but the overkill I disagree with.
I stopped believing in critics when they did a show about the top 10 moments in sci fi history and "Luke, I am your Father" was at number 9 and this at number 4... yes the critics really put that above above the most shocking revelation in the history of sci fi... since then I stopped.
I suspect that was more 'list chosen by internet voters or D-list celebrities'Quote:

I've seen youtube comments, I can believe the denizens of the internet are capable of anything. This just sounds like one of those cheap shows Channel 4 sticks on from time to time to fill a few hours.Quote:

Anyway, this IGN favourite characters thing is a list, they do these things just to invite arguments. It has Vivi in so it's all good. Not sure what Quistis is doing there, mind you.
>>> No Tidus?, No Garland? Palamecia anyone???..:luca:
