This forum has been depressingly quiet lately, time to stir the pot.

I move that Ramza didn't show any character development through the game and was only relevant to the history of Ivalice because he had a clear evil (the Lucavi) to go against. He was a completely static character and would have been crushed under history's foot and forgotten like all the other idealists. It would have been merciful for him to have died in Morond, as he is not capable of surviving in the real Ivalice, nor can he adapt.
