:D I pick Rinoa.:)
rinoa's hot
Quistis > Everything else
Quistis pwns all!
I have to go with Rinoa, because she (unlike Quistis) could tell Squall how she really felt without it being a problem.
On the other hand, it's debateable whether Quistis really felt that way--she didn't know what she felt.
I'm going with Quistis, because while Rinoa's a normal enough girl and she's nice and all, Quistis is exceptional.
I'm going to go with Quistis, because she's pretty and smart. And after my cousin named Rinoa after herself, everything just went downhill... -_-
I prefer Quistis to Rinoa, Rinoa's a slut. But im not really fond of Quistis either, her attempts to romance Squall were truly pitiful. I think she's also self obsessed.
Quistis managed to be the only character in FFVIII hat I like, along with Edea (Well, I don't hate Zell, but it's not the same thing xP). And I hate hate hate Rinoa.
Quistis pwns Rinoa. Always.

Besides, I like Squall and Rinoa together
i may love her Shockwave Pulsar, but i'd remake Quistis in a second and she is like the runner-up for one of those Bachelor reality shows. that means...i choose Rinoa.
Rinoa definatly.
ellone or adel
Is this in looks or personality?
Well I chose Rinoa cause I just love her :D
Quistis by far. She's much cooler and hotter than any other FF girl ever :love:
*Nods*Quote:
Quistis > Everything else
they both heaps cool but i like seliphe better then them put 2gether :D
I didnt really like Quistis... She had laser eyes bzzzzzzzt
I kinda like Quistis.
Quistis, just 'cause.
Quistis, cuz shes the smartest. I dont see Rinoa becoming SeeD instuctor (yeah like she could even become a student). Yeah she lost her instructor job but its more than what Rinoa got
And its amazing how Quistis can keep her cool despite all the Fire spells, bullets and monsters flying at her, she owns Rinoa even with her sight inpediment (she wears glasses)
quistis is the only FF8 character that i felt didnt have much perosnality and wasnt very interesting so i pick rinoa.
Selphie?
Ew...why are so many people posting for Quistis!?!?:barf: I LOVE RINOA!!!:grinpink: She is one of my top ALL-TIME FAVORITE female characters!!!:grinpink: (as you can see from my sig...:D) At first, I found Rinoa kinda annoying, but then I really started to like her after the whole space thing. I think I felt bad for her, cause she's not close with her dad and her mom died when she was 5...and yes, she is very pretty...:rolleyes2 (A LOT prettier then Quistis...) And, I LOVE Rinoa’s hair!!! ...on the other hand, I REALLY do not like Quistis.:eep: She is SUPER annoying.:mad: Quistis is probably one of my least favorite characters in FF8. (the only other characters I like less then her would be Adel, Odine, and Ultimecia) She has a lot of issues, and has absolutely NO personality.:nonono: All she does is be annoying, and feel sorry for herself and it's gets really irritating after a while...especially that scene with Squall after the SeeD dance...lol...I love it when he tells her to go talk to a wall.:lol: Even though I guess it was a little mean...:D But anyway...HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!:grinpink:
Angel Wing, quick question. Why is Yuna creeping her way into what is clearly an FFVIII picture in your sig?
Considering she's one of the only characters I like, I'll go with Quistis.
Definitely Quistis.
:D That was great :love:Quote:

I think she has like very little personality and basicly is just lame. But Rinoa is awesome! , and the fact I have a thing for brunnetes, and that she sorta looks like my girlfriend makes me pick her even more. :DQuote:

Rinoa :love: :D
rinoa all the way baby she hot
Selphie all the way:D
Quistis. shes a blue mage, has glasses, and uses a whip.
plus she can learn that shockwave pulsar. :cat: :choc2:
I pick Rinoa.
Quistis..I dunno..she looks so mature, but she is in fact kinda chilidish, she's not even sure of what's her feeling towards Squall. Not that I have anything against her though. She's cool, being an instructor and all. (and she even has her own fan club...O.O)
Rinoa is funnier, and a bit more persistent, which is what someone like Squall might need.
duhhh shes squalls foster sister from eadas place i didnt spell that right
Rinoa. Quistis really didn't do much for me as a character, she was just sorta...there. And REALLY annoying with her half hour lectures, I don't think she really contributed much to the story as a personality or force at all.
That's because Rinoa is a protagonist, together with Squall, and Quistis is just a second role.Quote:

Well, you're right in a way. She didn't do much.Quote:

She was more thoughtful than the others in general (without, unlike Squall, also refusing to talk to anyone), and her sense of humor was mostly understated, but she had a clear personality throughout the game, at least as much so as any of the other characters. It's fine to say that you don't like her personality, but to say that it wasn't there at all is willfully ignoring what was in the game. As far as her role, she kept a bit apart, sure, but her role was largely of the responsible one, the one who supported the others. Old habits die hard, and she was an Instructor.
Of course, it depends what you mean by 'fun and interest'. Quistis wasn't the brunt of as many jokes as Zell or Irvine, and she wasn't as crazy as Selphie, so I suppose that means she didn't have any worth as a character.
I like Rinoa, too, but I don't really think that Quistis has to be this awful person to like Rinoa, or vice versa. Then, I'm just not a fan of character-bashing.
Might have misunderstood me there. I liked Quistis, however she was very different from the other characters. She was simply normal. Neither crazy, nor pathetic, nor mega-introverted, nor mego-extraverted. She was just like a normal person in a FFVIII dress with a whip in her back-pocket. Unlike the other character, who were a bit fantasy-like, she appeared to be someone, who just got called in to fight for everyones good. Like it or not, that's your opinion, however it does make her look a little bit dull in Zell's and Selphie's company.Quote:

She does tend to look a bit dull in comparison to those two, sure--maybe not normal, exactly, but definitely more subdued--what issues she did have she usually kept to herself.
Well I'm not trying to bash the life out of Quistis and say she's the worst video game character made (which she definitely is not). However, in FF8 I simply felt her role in the overall plot and makeup of the game was fairly inferior compared to the others and I personally didn't notice much development in her, following her decision to leave her Instructor position. Maybe it is the fact that she plays mostly support and a background responsibility role that annoys me; it kind of makes me wish there was more information on her or a deeper involvement in the plot. Zell, Selphie and Irvine had at least one point in the game where attention was focused on them (Zell with the Balamb invasion, Selphie with Trabia, and Irvine with the assassination and Galbadia Garden, etc) where you, in a way, formed a keener interest and feel of those characters. There wasn't a single point like that for Quistis, at least not that I know of.
I apologize if perhaps my attitude toward her seems too unusually negative; I'm not a Quistis-hating Rinoa fanboy with posters all over my wall of Quistis with big X marks through her or anything like that. But again, there wasn't much appeal there for me.
Well, if you say it this way, it would have been better if she had another little role attached to her, like she finds a boyfriend, falls down a cliff and survives or anything similar, where you would actually feel for her. The thing about Quistis is that she remains in the background 90% of the time, which is neither bad nor good, and thus doesn't really fall into the focus of the camera.
I still liked her more than Rinoa, who did have a slightly bigger role. Not that I'm going contra-Rinoa now.:)
I've always liked intelligent girls, so that put Rinoa straight out! ;)
Quistis is the woman for me!
I prefer Quistis, she's the smart one.
Reasons why Rinoa >>>>>>> Quistis
1) Shes HOT!!!
2) She is more fun loving and excited.
3) She fits better as a character and as Squalls woman.
4) She doens't have a sight impediment.
5) She doesn't try to be some child prodigy.
6) Her limit break doesn't suck... or at least her final limit break is better than shockwave pulsar.
7) She is a forest owl which is cool.
8) She has a generally likeable personality.
9) She brings in clever plot twists.
10) She has that cool sweater thingy with the cut off sleeves and the angel wings.
For ten more reasons plz ask...
Ok, hmmm In this case ten more reasons, just becuase Im bored and have nothing better to do now. :pQuote:

Glasses.
Whip.
Quistis.
I rest my case.
you guys are saying quistis didnt have a big part in the sotry nither did selphie or irvine quistis had a big part in the begining but kinda died away. the only time irven had parts were talkin about the orphanig and the snipeing part. well i guess thats not to bad but compared to zell rinoa or squall its piddly. and what bout selpie what the friggin heck did that dip ever do besides trip and fall on her face?
I'm gonna say what my vote is first, which is Rinoa. I like both rinoa and quistis but i'm more into rinoa. She's hot which lots of ppl have established already, but she is pretty childish and can get on ppls nerves. I like quistis because she is hot as well but not as much as rinoa in my opinion. She is more mature but tries to act more mature than others which makes her annoying at times. She doesn't show her feelings at all and that is why she didn't get with squall way at the start or even before the game started. in all though, i'd have to go with rinoa.
lol I said I was bored :rolleyes2Quote:

:eek: ?? I didnt see Rinoa doing anything like that... Rinoa was interesting ( and hot ), I dont know why a lot of people dislike her... Of all the characters in FF8, Quistis was one of the ones whos personality was least developed. Rinoa was very sweet and mature, thats why she was the only one who could make Squall love again. Quistis was kinda bland and boring... I vote Rinoa!

She claims that she thought it was love, and I think she said it was last summer or something, whenever she said it was, it was not only a short period of time for her to move on to Squall, but considering she was under the impression that it was love, her and Seifer's relationship didn't last very long. Who knows how many more men she's thought she was in love with.....?!Quote:

But she thinks she is in love with Seifer how many people tend to find false love before they find their true love. And c'mon how Seifer treated her. She may have been with Seifer when she first met Squall, but maybe she started to lose her interest in Seifer when she started to see how he really is, and she was probably already loosing interest in him before she danced with Squall....yeah, whatever.... She's NOT A SLUT !!!! :mad2:Quote:

Becuase you like her ? :DQuote:

Quote-"If Rinoa found out what the person was like before getting involved with them, then she wouldn't find herself false love. And she IS A SLUT."
Like I said maybe, he was different in the beginning becuase she meant more to him, but as they kept on with time. He didnt think he would have to keep on being his best to her, then maybe at this time Rinoa started to realise how he is, therefore losing her interest in him.
It's not like she did it with Squall so you can't say she's a slut, just very flirtatious. If you're calling her a slut because of being flirty then you're going to make a lot of flirty girls around the world angry right now...
If you're gonna call anyone a slut call Selphie one, I mean look how short that dress is. :p (I don't dislike Selphie btw)
Angel Wing: Your really into the holiday spirit! :D
If she don't do that, it will drag until Disc 40 to get Mr Whatever to open up.
DISK 40 !!! lol ;)Quote:

But ahh whatever it doesnt matter we each have our own opinions and different ones too, so whatever I dont want to seem like im trying to change your mind, just stating my opinion.

Quistis, Rinoa is boring and lame. Quistis is a real person, more rounded, more lovable. That scene where Squall was giving her the cold shoulder, I just wanted to give her a hug and some chocolate! :D
:mad:
Rinoa was just joking with squall at the dance to make him come out of his shell. Rinoa's " flirts " are her ways of making Squall feel accepted. About her moving on to Squall fast, alot of chicks rebound when a relationship goes to crap, and Squall was the one she could trust the most in that situation. She wasnt "molding" him either, she was just trying to get Squall to come around. Rinoa throughout the whole story tries to get Squall to love again, and finally succeeds. No one else, not even Quistis could do that...Quote:

Quistis's attempts were pitiful though! And alot of girls have rebound relationships, because a lot of girls are slutty. She was just trying to get Squall to come around into behaving in a way which suited her.Quote:

Rinoa was trying to make Squall feel comfortable around her, she wasnt manipulating him. She was just being kind. She saw him in the corner by himself and decided to cheer him up. If being kind is slutty, then I guess Quistis and Selphie are too since they try to cheer up Squall also...Quote:

Rinoa is obviously a kind self sacrificing girl who really cared about Squall, enough to lock herself away from him forever if necessary to keep him safe.
And no, not all girls rebound because they are sluts. I think alot of them do it because they have been hurt and need someone they trust to be there to help them. I'm not saying some dont do it because they are sluts, just not the majority...
Trying to cheer someone up is not slutty, trying to cheer someone up (supposedly), by flirting is.Quote:

They can have someone to trust who'll help them, without becoming romantically involved with them.Quote:

Wow alot of ppl like Rinoa
i'd have thought they were pretty even, actually,
you have the kinkeh lady with a whip
then you have got Rinoa who everyone just loves
fair!
True everyone loves Rinoa
I like them both. I love both their outfits and their personalitys. though I thought Quistis was prettier than rinoa. I picked Rinoa, because her and Squall were my favorite characters.
Of course Rinoa, these two make a perfect couple.

Rinoa. Even if some people think that she's a slut :D (I don't think so).
BAHAHHAHAH!!!!Quote:

Did I mention she is a hot blonde?
well basically i like quistis to be with squall she is so lonely and left out:(
i wish i was in her world i would have took her in my arms and comforted her
squall was a bad man with her yak:mad2:
but anyway rinoa looks good too, to me at least;)
i don't care as long as the girls are sweet really:cool:
BM, how about some constructive reasons instead of stupid comparisons, huh? As for me, I've already casted my vote like when this thing started a long time ago. Rinoa! :D
Constructive reasoning?
Rinoa's a slut.
I´m forced to agree Rinoa is a ho...i mean first Seifer then Squall and she probably got banged by Headmaster Cid to!!!!!!
At least Quistis is a girl with principles!;)
4evarisha, there was absolutely no need to bump this thread. It's old and the poll is closed.
