Anyway, beside the point. Hehe, when I got to playing the game more, Beatrix definitely started to make more sense, to the point where now she's one of my favorite ladies in FF. That whole sense of "Who am I and what am I fighting for?" started to make much more sense. Following orders may have been all part of her nature and training, but so was staying true to what ultimately turned out to be "right."
I don't think she would have been as much of a comical relief as Steiner was, so surprisingly, I prefer Steiner's character to Beatrix's as a team member.
Everything else about Beatrix, though... I really like. I like the time you get to use her in battle. (WOOHOO!! CLIMHAZZARDNESSFULLNESS!!!!!!1) and most of all... I LOVE HER THEME SONG!
But do I want her to be more of a main character? Meh, not really. The information you get out of her is enough to make her good enough to care about, but leaves enough to interpretation.
Hehe, oh! And the Zidane-flirting-with-Beatrix point Chosen1 brings up... it always cracked me up that Beatrix is probably the only woman that Ziddy DIDN'T hit on... XD She probably would have Climhazzarded his ass into oblivion.
