I agree with all this. Enough of this drama wit .
1. Cloud for example: "Sephiroth that S.O.B. you killed aerith" * slits*.
All the heroes in every ff is like... 15-17.
Like Firion was what? 15? That is way to unrealistis for a group of teens to pwn an empire, even for fantasy like, and then theres this drama with Leon and the main chars on ff2.
2. Squall. What can i say about him? Emo. Loner. Goodie Goodie. And Wtf's up with a gun Sword anyway? I mean like... It's Cool and all... But wtf?

They should have a main character, who sure, has a dark past, carries a sword, all the stereotypical stuff, But he's at LEAST 25 as someone said earlier, and MAYBE throw in a 16 yr old chick for some pedofilic humour. He needs to not be emo, too many so far, Tidus was on the verge of being emo, if he wasnt stupid as a post.

I give Squenix credit for thier amazing work, but... If its going to stay the same, the "Final" Final fantasy is going to come a lot sooner than you think. Each character on one series is almost exactly the same from the last.

Anyway, that was my blurl
