Rinoa basically falls in love with Squall at first sight and spends the majority of the game trying to get him out of his shell and into her pants, when she's not throwing tantrums at her father and the party or being kidnapped and/or possessed by Ultimecia.
Garnet asks Zidane to kidnap her, decides to go home anyway and do things herself, gets captured and hands over the big bad her latent summoning powers, has to be rescued, follows Zidane around until she is powerless to stop Kuja from killing her mother, becomes queen and almost loses her home, goes mute for most of Disc 3 until she decides its useless to do so and gets over it, and then follows Zidane around to stop his evil brother. Then she gets her happy ending when she finds out Zidane didn't actually die and she gets him into her pants.
Yuna meets Tidus and asks him to come along cause she knew his jerkass father, jeopardizes the Pilgrimage to humor Seymour and to bring him to justice for killing his father, despite none of this trout having anything to do with her, and drags her guardians into her scheme getting them all branded as heretics by the church and the enemies of an entire race of people. She gets kidnapped, twice. Forcing her guardians to have to cross a desert and nearly get killed with the rest of the Al Bhed, have to storm Bevelle for her dumb wedding which frankly never made sense as a plot point. Bangs Tidus because Auron is too sexy for her. She gets to Zanarkind, realizes the truth about the Pilgramge and kills the only person who has been able to do anything to even give people even a remote sense of hope in her world on the pretense that there is another way. Doesn't have a clue wjhat this "other way is" but conveniently Tidus does because he's a plot device, and it's using his plan and his knowledge of his old man that actually ends up saving Spira, not anything Yuna actually did.
Ashe on the other hand, loses her family, her husband, and her kingdom and instead of moping about it, or waiting for someone to help her, forms the Resistance, travels across Ivalice to rob her ancestral tombs, gains the magic artifact of doom, and instead of spending the whole game trying to keep it from the bad guys, she actually spends the whole game debating about using it on them.
She basically let's go of her anger and decides that her selfish desire for revenge would not do any good for her people by striking out on an "enemy" that is really just a few policy makers and not the people who make up their nation. Thus not starting an endless cycle of revenge and bad blood between two nations. She doesn't take the easy road of allying with Rozzario to have them help her restore her kingdom, though she would likely be a puppet queen for them in exchange; nor does she nuke Archades out of existence and build an empire of fear like her ancestor did so she would inevitably be a puppet Queen for the Occurians as well. She chose the path that would lead to the least amount of bloodshed and sorrow without having to have the writers bail her out. She got her kingdom backed because she happened to befriend Larsa, the future Emperor of Archades during the course of the game.
You're accusing me of saying outlandish things, and not playing these games, but seriously Psy, when was the last time you really played any of these games cause I feel like my memory is a bit better at the moment.![]()
