..to find out why Vaan is so annoying. I have yet to see a reasonable explanation as to why he is so annoying. If you people don't give me one, I will go to other message boards to further my quest.
EDIT: I must also add that I like Vaan :bigsmile:

You should just give him a chance, and he isn't even annoying- its the actual person's problem not the character's. Too many people find something to complain about with a perfectly decent character, why can't we just enjoy the game and don't insult it!
becauseWE CAN!!lol of course i still think of all the FF games the best was FFTA(pwns the rest>Quote:

I canīt see why everyone thinks Vaan is so anoying?
Because he looks like, sounds like, and even has the same body language as tidus?
I didn't mind tidus, but I don't like for him to have a carbon copy.
Vaan's appearance and tone of voice are somewhat similar to Tidus's, but his personality is certainly _not_ a "carbon copy".
Anyway he's not particularly annoying. Certainly far less so than say, Steiner.
Just look at his ribs, will ya ?

Well, he is an orphan who grew up in a desert...
Yeah what's up with that?Quote:

Well, no matter... Anyway, back to the topic - why, oh WHY are people so annoyed with this poor, starving orphan living in a desert!? Now that's just mean... :(
If you notice in FMV's..he doesn't actually have his ribs showing, close up pics/cutscenes probably don't just..show him as he really looks.
He looks ugly his abs. And he does not live in the Giza plains aor estersand.Or westersand. He lives in the city of Rabanastre, Lowtown.
he stands with his arms behind his neck in the same way, he's always asking awkward questions which show his ignorance, where tidus was dealing with a completely foreign culture, etcQuote:

Thats true, i can see the resemblance between the two now-Vaan is his own original character, but takes off of Tidus a lot.
They basically took Tidus, removed all of his redeeming aspects and put him in a game where he has about as much importance in the overall plot as your average NPC.
And his abs (like every other Hume model) look like they're painted on, which is ridiculous since FFX didn't have this problem and was released several years earlier.
Exactly, why is he even in this game? Him and Penelo are just along for the ride because they have nothing else to do but to work for Migelo. I think Balthier would've been a much better main character. Not to mention that every character is infinitely cooler and more likable than Vaan.Quote:

The only reason I can think of is that Vaan was originally supposed to play a much larger role in the plot but it was written out when the project changed director (probably due to the initial critisism that Vaan and Ashe seemed too similar in nature to Tidus and Yuna). That would explain why he is always the one to represent you in towns, at least.
So one of the main reasons to find Vaan annoying is because of his abs. Right..
There's probably been 2/3 people who I have been satifisied with so far :bigsmile:
I can image how great the game would be if Balthier was your main character-he would be great, and give you full access to the Strahl.Quote:

What makes Vaan a better character is his relationship with the other characters. They all think he's annoying and are not afraid to say it, unlike FFX's clan of "good doers and wrong righters". You can't tell me you didn't play FFX and not once wish Auron would turn around and tell Tidus to shut up.;)
I think Vaan's role in the story was good and I liked how it progressed. It was far more believable. Hey at least he's not an alien, a clone, a dream or some other stupid nonsense that plagues JRPG:rolleyes2
His hair, when he gets a good haircut he won't be annoying anymore.
Seriously one day we'll look back and go "holy freaking crap, look at Vaans hair".
u just love to bitch dont u........every thread u post in ur complaining about sumthin.Quote:

No.78..are you really saying that his hair annoyed you? :rolleyes2 - what's the big kerfuffle over something like..his hair XD?
Well that's just me being picky, that's the only problem with him really... Oh and his level 1 quickening looks stupid.
i dont think hes as annoying as tidus but he is a bitQuote:

I just found Vaan's character so immature for a dessert orphan, should'nt he be a cool character not a boring predictable one.
I think that you hit a good point Chocobo hunter. It was such a drag to have your first character (Reks) dying on you!
Vaan got more annoying because of it to me. I felt like saying "I don't want this fool, bring me back Reks!"
I would much rather have had Reks than both Vaan AND Penelo.
Reks makes Vaan a bit more compelling cause the player understands his loss. I also loved how you learn more about Reks from the NPC's and certain side quests. Especially the "Jovy, The Hero" side quest.
Besides it's an unwritten rule in the FF universe that you are not allowed to have the "cool characters" be in your party. Golbez, the Dawn Warriors, General Leo, Zack, and Seifer...
No penelo is cool. Vaan has to go though Defo. Leave my penelo alone!:love:Quote:

Have you reached the end yet ? She will look a lot prettier on the last scene of the game! :love:
I have no opinion of Penelo, except probably say that she isn't really needed but isn't annoying. She keeps her mouth shut and speaks when spoken to, what'ta good girl!
Yeah Penelos role in the party, storywise... Is like, "Um, Penelo... We can go home ya know."
"Shush! I like it here."
This is a thread about Vaan, not Pennelo. Get out Renmiri, before I report you to the controlling Occuria - er - Moderators :bigsmile:
All right, back on topic, I'm a resident modwhore and you all shall obey my command. ^^
Anyway, you want to know why Vaan is so annoying?
Because he is wearing a man bra, and whines all the time.
That's why. He is the opposite of hero; he is loser, hear him whine.
A loser, ehh...I agree with the man bra thing-and what he says is always BS with no relevance at all. He has the most ridiculous hairstyle ever-he hasn't got no wits about him... but he ain't no loser.Quote:

Reks wears a more embarassing man bra. :bigsmile:
It is his chest armor, part of his uniform. Leavie Reksy alone!!!!
Reks' role got jacked by that street thief they call 'Vaan', the evidence runs straight back to that kid!!!
As if you have not seen a penelo fan before:pQuote:

Anyway I like Penelo. She is pretty (A must in FF games!)
funky everything I am... even IF I am a boy. :rolleyes2
He looks like a girl, and can't get the drinks in.
He uses glitter as makeup ;)
(Don't those two perpetual shining spots in Vaan's face annoy you ? )
YES! FINALLY! Someone else noticed!
They really bother me, like bleach spots or something?!
Leave Vaan alone and let him be metrosexual. You let Tidus do it so you can't complain about Vaan. ;)Quote:
