Zidane: ZOMG, ~SapphireStar~ is posting here again everyone flame her and tell her to go back to FFVIII! Nah, I'm just kidding, ~SS~, yes, I agree with you, Zidane takes up alot of the story, the game revolves him thinking about several things, Garnet, Brahne's evil plans, Garnet, what Kuja's up to, Garnet, where Zidane is from, did I mention Garnet? Zidane taking up the story? Yeah, and sometimes that can be a turn off for some, but consider this: there are several fan fiction artists who think the way we think and write side stories about the other characters. If one keeps that sidestory in their minds as they play, it gives importance to the other characters, though it may be imagination, and if that doesn't work...well, Zidane's the only humanoid person on Gaia with a tail like his, he sticks out like a sorethumb, so it's natural for the story to have all eyes on Zidane.
