    Default Who do yo think was the LEAST devoloped character (NPCs count)

    I AM NOT GONNA MAKE THIS A POLL CAUSE THERES TOO MANY!!

    Who do you think had the least devolop ment in FF games?

    I say it's probably Ziegfried in FF6 It's never explaind why he attacks you, why there's 2 of him (One strong one weak), why the hell Ultros thinks he wants the statues.... ETC

    Ultros him self is underdevolped for similar reasons but not as bad...

    Atma.... who is Atma? Oh yeah he's some monster who survives your attacks AND the end of the world because he's searching for something, but dies before he can say what....

    And proving FF6 isn't the only one with underdevoloped Charcters Please see Yang in FF4 what exactly is he there for?


    Answer: To take you to Fabul once that's done he's very redundant!


    So anyone you can think of?

    Squall (from FFVIII of course). He never changes, or the changes are artificial or too sudden, not realistic enough. And if a character's changes aren't realistic, then it isn't character development for me, therefore Squall is as undeveloped as they get.

    Actually, Squall's sudden and unpredictable character "development" could be considered schizophrenia.

    Perhaps each disc represents a year, so actually, Squall changes over the course of a few years?

    its dynes daughter.

    i actually thought squall had amazing character development. some of the best stuff i,ve seen in an ff. he doesnt change so to speak, the caring person he always was is allowed to surface in disc 3. in the whole of ff8 he is the only one with decent development imho.

    I agree with Big D about Squall. He did change a lot, yes, but the reasons are unknown. Why did he do all that? The changes themselves were poorly developed.

    As for Atma... dont most non-major bosses receieve as much or less than that, development-wise?

    Oh good Lord I hate you, Mimic.

    I think the characters of FFVIII had very little developement. Squall, Rinoa, all of the heroes! Even with Quistis (who's my favorite in the game).

    General Leo as well. He is a good guy, but why is he on the Empire? Was he suckered in?

    Take care all.

    Most un-developed character...

    I would say Quistis. You never heard from her enough to actually get any kind of feeling as to who she was.I would understand if she was a npc and all, but its abit sad when biggs and wedge have more development then her

    I certainly can't think of any other NPC who has a name (even if it was only in the American version) but never says more than one thing. Even Jim the dwarf had a change of text.
