I like Squall. His personality usually prompts the (imo) intended reaction throughout: at the start people think he's a whiny douche and/or that "cool" loner jackass, but then his past is explained a little more and you grow to understand why. He's not half bad, although his development could've been done a little better. Even I can't look past the troutty "omg you're unconscious so I love you and am way nicer underneath" thing. Rinoa only brought out the worst in Squall, I think.
