Thread: Quistis-Neglected?

  1. #1

    Default Quistis-Neglected?

    Who thinks Quistis is one of the best characters in the game, but was quite neglected with her part in the game, with her love life and personality? Quistis is my favorite, and I think she is neglected in every way, esspecially when it comes to her love life. What do you all think?

    I even think she shoulda hooked up with Squall. Psh, screw Rinoa, she's trash! Quistis woulda been hotter as a real person, and I'm even into brunettes. Hah!

    I do wish she played a larger role in the game, althrough her role WAS very important, but only in the beginning. After Rinoa coming into the picture, Quistis was less acknowledged. =\

    I didn't use Quistis much in battle though.

    Thank you Hysterian!

    I kind of wished the same...I mean, they really did have more of a past and all...all of the dreams were crushed when stupid Rinoa came into the picture...gosh! She just...gets on my nerves. She's not even HALF as pretty as Quistis, Aeris, OR Dagger, and she needs to be saved every second. Dagger only needs to be saved once, Aeris only needs to be saved once, and Quistis never needs to be saved. Rinoa has to be saved like 5 times. And besdies, all of those girls AND Beatrix could kill her in a fight.

    Enough with the bashing. I think that Quistis should have a WAY more important role all through the game, not just in the beginning. After all, she saved Squall's ass, and she doesn't even get one thanks!

    I think that each of the characters (except for Squall and Rinoa) had equal attention story-wise throughout the game.

    In the battle aspect of the game however, I think that people tend to underestimate Quistis and Selphie's usefullness. If Selphie has a high enough magic stat, she can get some pretty good magic in her Slots. The only thing about Quistis is that it might take a bit of time finding the items needed to teach her her Blue Magic. It's easy if you mod cards.

    True, but Quistis was neglected in every way-

    Selphie and Irvine got some romantic attention, Zell got leadership attention, and Seifer got bad guy attention. Quistis didn't get any of that.

    Actually, I use Quistis AND Selphie as my two other fighters. They are both splendid! Rinoa is the one that is useless...

    Well, most of the game focused on Squall and Rinoa, so the other characters were nothing but supporting roles.

    Yes, it's quite a shame, especially since Quistis did seem to have somewhat of a likeable personality. Unfortunately, we don't get to witness any kind of depth of her character.

    This is partially why I don't like FFVIII as much as FFIX and FFVII.

    What a shame.

    Chris, you don't know how right you are.

    In VIII, all they do is pay attention to Squall and Rinoa. In every other game, everyone is concentrated on, not just the two main characters.

    It was harsh Squall telling her to go talk to a wall. I really felt sorry for Quistis in that scene and her feelings towards Squall confused her. She was an awesome character and such a bad arse, she really told it like it was to Rinoa about giving Edea the bracelet!

    Yeah, Squall was just being an ass in that scene.

    Haha...Sapph, you're awesome, always haveing righteous opinons!

    But yes, sadly, she saved Squall's ass and then he steps all over her. That's what I don't like Squall. But Squall, I can deal with because he's cool. Rinoa is just stupid.

    I'm afraid that Rinoa was nothing but "a sexy gal from outer space."

    Aww, thankies for that

    Yeah Quistis saved Squall's butt and he was like "Whatever ..." I mean Rinoa, as far as I can remember, has never saved Squall. Its been a while, but I cant recall and yet Quistis is brushed aside with the others.

    Hey no prob!

    But, as I have stated before, I think she is more brushed aside than anyone else for various reasons. I am currently writing a fanfic on the Queifer pairing becuz they look cute and poor Quistis needs attention!

    Did Selphie have a personality? I mean except for being hyper and annoying. What was Irwine like? I mean except for his womanizing ways.
