    Wait, you're saying that Cyan didn't grieve enough? Puh-leeze! The majority of his lines revolved around his dead family. He was so mopey throughout the game, he was just one Linkin Park song away from posting about it on LiveJournal and slitting his wrists!

    I seem to have missed a LOT of lines in my three playthroughs...

    I find the scenes where Sabin and Cyan are meeting up with Gau to be especially annoying...when they're making fun of Cyan and such...it drags out horribly...

    They just didn't do that crap with FFVII and VIII...not as often, anyway.

    A game with a cast as big as FFVI's doesn't have time to place a great deal of focus on the twists and turns and drama of each character's circumstances. Everyone just gets a handful of key scenes, and it works out fine, really.

    "Mr. Thou" is some of the best dialogue in the game.

    I don't see what's wrong with "Mr. Thou", and saying FF6's script is inferior to FF7 makes me want to stab you.

    Sure, FF6's script was a bit unrealistic in some parts, but it wasn't horribly butchered like FF7's.

    I agree with all of this.

    It makes me sad. But dialogue is a big part of liking a game for me, and not for a whole bunch of other people maybe? Oh well.

    In terms of typos, I'd believe that. Dear Force, somebody was asleep at the wheel on that one.

    Typos aside, FFVII's script just barely edges out VI's in terms of quality. Had Kefka had lines more befitting a villain instead of Blue Collar TV, they'd be equal. But the lines and behavior they gave Kefka made me utterly unable to take him seriously as a villain, even though "Son of a submariner!" makes a great catchphrase.

    Is the Game Boy Advance version going to have new dialogue? I finished the game, like, 20 times and I'd buy the GBA remake for new dialogue. Oh, who am I kidding? I'll buy it anyway.

    I wish Mark Twain were still alive so he could come up with a scathing remark or two about your lack of ability to determine good writing, and then write a work of satire to illustrate his point.
