Why Terra?

[Avarice-ness]

Uhm... On the picture that Micheal or whatnot posted.
Note the keyword there.. Which happens to be hero.
Main Character and Hero can be different things.
Sort of like in Games like Sword of Mana, In technicallities, You can choose your -main character- for the reason the story revolves mostly around them. And then the other person of whom you didn't choose would be the hero, but the hero still plays a large part.

You don't tug on Superman's cape.
You don't spit into the wind.
You don't pull the mask off the ol' Lone Ranger,
and you don't argue with Kishi about FF.
A doo doot doo doo doo doot.

Yeps. Kishi ALWAYS knows more than you. Except on feathery chocobos, maybe.

Terra is necissary to complete the game, too. You just don't have to bring her with you. She's there regardless.

i think you have to go and see her in the world of ruin but you do not have to get her to join your party to complete the game

[TheAbominatrix]

She comes at the end regardless of whether you recruit her or not, and you dont have to go see her at all.

I read it in a magizine.

Well then it must be true!

I cried aloud with mirth and merriment.

But anyway, I always thought all chars were pretty equal; Terra does have a couple of limelights, though.

She has the most limelights.

Celes also has a lot of highlights too so do the Figarro brothers. Without their help the plot would not move along as a whole. The main character is who you want it to be you can argue for many characters.

Ugh, isn't there an Ultimania guide for this game? I've always thought of Tina as the main character! Her lietmotif is the world map theme, she's in the logo, etc, etc. People just don't think she's the main character because she's not focused on in the World of Ruin.

*Sigh*...meh.

Yes, but that can be said of any game, even a game with a set and clear main character. Like VII. There are points that, without other characters, the game would not move along as a whole. That does not, however, mean Cloud is not the main character.

That is why i'm working on getting past the japanese verson in hopes that the ending is diffrent.

[Roto13]

Locke's not going to be the main character, no matter what version you play.

[TheAbominatrix]

The ending is not different. You can download a Japanese rom and see as much.

[KoShiatar]

Despite various censored things and slighly different dialogues, the final is exactly the same and so is the main storyline. Believe me, I know the Japanese game by now.

Why should i if i find the ending is with Terra leting her hair free even in the japanese verson i'm gonna sue Square to find out what force them to decide that sex dosen't matter. But come on i know that in japan it's always male first before female and that's why there's no male pink ranger and no female red ranger.

Tell me how it is when you lose that completely sexist and doomed lawsuit.
