Good point DocFrance but.....
I don't like Steiner as a character. S I don't want to play as him, but I need him in places. Same goes for Feya, Amarant, Eiko & Quiena. Poor characters in my opinion and I'm not a fan of Zidane either.......
Would you play as someone you hated?
would you play Zelda if Link was a w***er?
Would you play Mario if Mario was a terrible character?
So in FF8, I don't like Selphie so i don't have to have her, I can have Zell instead, who i do like.

And I wrote that in a earlier post, i forgot to mention FFII since i hadn'tt played it back then.....
And i never mentioned FFX. I hated that.
Just to clear things up
