I just beat the Floating Continent for the first time and have gotten Celes to Albrook, and... this game is f-cking amazing.
(SPOILER)Kefka making Celes "prove" her loyalty by killing her friends, but instead stabbing Kefka. Then Kefka removing the sword from his chest and kiliing Gestahl and kicking him off the Floating Continent. Then the destruction of the world, and Celes waking up a year later. And finally, Celes jumping off the cliffs after Cid died, then waking up to find Locke's bandana.
Even though I knew about her little "scene" before you get to Albrook, I still cried as it happened. Just goes to show how awesome this game is. x3
