Oops, sorry, wrong name. That other chick. The one I didn't like. Blondey. Uhm. *checks* Ah. Krile. That's the one. Even her name is annoying. =|

As for XIII's characters slitting their wrists after a couple of character deaths, I disagree. For all Snow, Serah and Sahz knew, (SPOILER)they would not be getting their loved ones back. They were crystal, gone forever. And in the case of Hope, very early in the game he witnesses (SPOILER)his mother's death. But they all kept going. I imagine they wouldn't have slit their wrists over each other's deaths considering how many people they probably knew had died. Few of them were friends until very late in the game and they had carried out the killing of many a beast/soldier before then.

Oh, and the only other two I haven't mentioned lost (SPOILER)everyone they ever knew on their planet. So... yeah.

Either way. Final Fantasy bleeds melodrama. I'll give you that I can't think of too much that went on with XII melodramatically, but the plot was so hard for me to keep up with. =| Cid, though. That guy alone was all kinds of melodrama. xD He could have been an actor of many a character in a one-man play.
