What deaths in the games do you think were pulled off well?
Personally I think Aeris' death was the best. It just.. worked. It was so sudden and it made me cry.

the death of schmidt in grandia 3...
my tears fall slowly...oh my god, i cry...
I liked the way the Suikoden 2 one that happened towards the end of the game much better than Aeris's :p Assuming you then go on to get the not-best ending, anyway :p
Guys this is General FF, so shes refering to the FF series isnt she?Quote:

I say Aeris cause her death was a blow and unexpected.
While other series have had better, such as Lufia 2, in FF one of the better ones was Leo and, (SPOILER)When Shadow stays behind on the collapsing Kefka's tower in the end.
(SPOILER)When Chocobo Number 4 died in Final Fantasy Tactics and turned into a crystal I crawled into bed and cried for 3 days
Galuf. He gets a kickass heroic battle before he dies. Shame about krile though
Nothing is wrong with Krile.Quote:

The death of Galuf, pacing-wise, is probably the first time the FF series got it right. I mean, in the previous titles the characters either resumed the storyline in a matter of seconds, or the characters came back later. In FF5, the story didn't just go on. There's just an extremely long pause and silence...very well executed.
The final death sequence for Sephiroth in VII. :D :mwahaha:
I forgot Galuf, his is definatly the best.
(SPOILER)Josef
okay, I'm sorta kidding, but he was pretty awesome:(
Galuf however, I'd cry over him instead of Aeris any day of the week.
I think Auron's death was pulled off well!

I had Aeris death spoiled for me before I got to it, but even then, I didn't really feel anything when I found out or when I got to that part. Now Cid from FFVI on the other hand (assuming you let him die, which most people do at least the first time) had more of an effect on me. It led to one of the more interesting scenes of the game, which was also way ahead of it's time as far as video game story telling.
Auron's sending at the end of FFX.
Galuf's death.
Palom and Porom turning themselves to stone (not really a death, but you know)
