1. No, the FFVII cast were people with no personality. I wouldn't even call them people...they were SOOO emotionless. (except maybe Tifa) FFVIII cast weren't rejects. Just cause they came from the same orphanage doesn't mean that the FFVIII cast were rejects. Honestly, if you think FVIII cast was rejects, then FFVII cast is the dirt we walk on. I have never seen stinkier cast than them. There are a few exceptions though.
Squall- Emo until he became a loser once he got with Rinoa
Selphie - OMG, I'm so hypppppppeeeeeeer!
Zell- He's cool
Irvine- Um..yeah. Ok I guess
Quistis-Quistis who?
Rinoa-BURN
They had no character, no personality - their background histories made everything so dull and boring. Even FFII > FFVIII characters
2. FVIII kept you guessing, with Ultimecia pocessing people and stuff, and Rinoa in a coma, and lots of other things. FFVII was all over the place, and when there was a problem, the answer to it was too predictable.
No it didn't. We all you knew you had to eventually defeat a sorceress! *rolls eyes*
3. Doesn't matter if X-2 was a mess up or not. Square obviously thought it was good. It is 1st FF sequel whether it was bad or not. End of story.

4. FFVIII didn't need a sequel because IT WAS TERRIFIC THE WAY IT WAS!!! I feel sequels ruin the feel of the game. I thought FFVII was fine the way it was. They could have easily added some of the answers to the unanswered questions in the game. There really was no need for a sequel.
Thank God they didn't do any sequels. It had a shoddy ending. I agree with you on the FFVII thing somewhat. Some of these sequels make me think -WTF? >.>
Come on..hit me with your answers! >;3
