Thread: Who didn't like Leon?

    Default Who didn't like Leon?

    He goes evil on you then when he just randomly joins the party because the Emperor is back. He's forgiven just like that and I doubt he really went good again anyway.

    There is just so many reasons not to like IMO.

    Yeah, FFII's plot is pretty spotty like that, but it was a decent fix for a console RPG in 1988. As for Lionheart specifically, I like him based on his name and character design alone.

    I quite liked Lionheart's character. He was sort of a mix between (FFIV Spoilers)Kain and Golbez. I also liked how you could make him a pretty useful character very quickly. I had spent 20 hours or so building up the other characters while Lionheart only took me a few hours to get to a good enough fighting condition for the last dungeon.

    So people shouldn't forgive members of their own family?

    I liked Leon

    Vaan - "Hey, you!"
    Penelo - "Yeah, you! The one reading this sig at this very moment!"
    Vaan - "Interested in playing FFXII International Zodiac Job system?"
    Ashe - "But you have no knowledge of the Japanese language?"
    Fran - "....We could help...."
    Balthier - "That's right, Fran! Just click on Crossblades' thread on the very bottom of this signature and it will show you all license grid translations, magicks and tecks locations, and other changes that were made!"
    Basch - "Don't forget though. Swap Magic is needed to play this game if you don't own a japanese PS2."
    Vaan - "Also remember that if you played the original, you'll have an easier time playing the international version. We hope you enjoy the International Zodiac Job System experience. See ya then!"

    I HATED HIMMMMMM!!!

    I couldn't be bothered to level him once I got him back, so he stayed dead all the way through Pandaemonium, I revived him in time to fight the emperor, and then he died on the first turn. I didn't bother after that.

    Personality wise, he had no personality. Neither did anyone else. So I couldn't like or hate anyone.

    Aha! It's not just me! I was starting to think I was the only one who felt that way.

    I never bought that concept, just because of how Leon acts when you confront him.

    He looked cool I suppose. Although he's just a blue Firioniel in the FC version...:/

    uhhh... yeah, he kinda is. At least in battle.

    Edit: Nevermind, it isn't big enough...but, if you'll just look at their in-battle sprites, it's apparent.

    There are more differences than mere colors.



    By what you're saying, Gordon is just a red Josef.



    And Richard is just a yellow Frioniel in a helmet.

    Yeah, but it's pretty apparent that their two sprites are alot more similar than the other sets of sprites in the game.

    Of course, you're right...Lionheart has a belt.
