Terra or Locke

[Dark_Mage_Palom]

I see it as there is no true main ch. in the game, you make the story move along with what ch. you pick to have in you party
for the most part

There was a old Thread like this one a while back and someone had explaned it a lot better then I

[Rengori]

Terra's cooler than lock.

[Slade]

Terra is the flagship character of Final Fantasy VI. Therefore, it's Terra.

[Fantasy Fan]

saying Terra's the main of VI is kinda like saying Garnet is the main of IX.

Perhaps she is.

VI doesn't have a single main character, it has several; Terra, Locke, Celes, Setzer all have their important roles to play.

hmm

I'd say Terra mainly because it starts out as her story, about what happened to her. Locke is sort of like Yuna in FFX where he takes control at certain parts, but it's not really about him or his past. FFVI brings tons of characters together in the game, each with a unique background; that's one of the reasons I love it.

^Wrong^ That isn't even comparable man! Zidane is the outright main character of FFIX. You control him 99% of the game except for rare moments when you control Vivi or Steiner. Who the heck would even mention Garnet as the main character? In FFVI you can sub in anyone at anytime. FFIX you have Zidane in the whole time basically and cannot sub him out. I don't know if that was just a gender-stereotypical comment you made, but think that through. There's no evidence against Terra being or not being the main character. Pick a better comparison next time.

Terra=main character
Locke=major character

People just want the main character to be Locke, because they can't stand having a female being seen in that light.

Quoted for truth.

Terra-[/!] Locke <---Celes

Garnet-[/!] Zidane <---Eiko?????

So saying Garnet is the main character of FFIX is not right.

... I'm having Flashbacks from a thread just like this a while back...

[My name is...something..?]

I never saw anyone as a true main character in Final Fantasy VI.
They pretty much all move the story along at different points.

Yes, Terra looks like the lead character the first half of the game but once you get to the World of Ruin, Celes steps forward and pretty much becomes the lead for the rest of the game.
Meanwhile, Terra isn't even necessary from that point on.

Terra looks like the main character to me.Locke plays a major role too,like the other guys,but Terra is the protagonist.
