I'll stop stating it when people stop arguing with me over it.
That's complete bullshit right there.
Enough said.
Anyways, I was a little tired when I did make my previous comment about the RPG standpoint and yes when it comes to having diversity in fighting and travel and everything we've come to love about our RPG's, it is definitely sub-par. As a game with amazing graphics and story though, I think it's awesome and a lot of my FF buddies agreed.
However, like CP, I like the characters and how they developed over the course of the game. Let's break down a couple:
Hope: Goes from scared to little boy to a young man who is learning to stand up for things he believes in and defend his friends at all costs.
Lightning: Goes from cold and distant, to friendly and warm. (Okay, still not the warmest person of the bunch but a lot of her walls are brought down over the course of the game.)
Snow: Egogistical pride-ridden character with a hero complex the size of Jupiter. He learns just how helpless he really can be, but in spite of that he tones down his antics and insists on pushing himself to the limits to at least give his part.
Sazh: At first he's afraid of things he doesn't understand, but as time progresses, he learns to accept the unknown as a normal part of life.
Vanille: Used to hide behind displays of happiness to mask the pain and fear inside. Later on learns that despite her past she will still be accepted by her friends and eventually gains a truer sense of who she is and is able to become a more happy character for it.
I know I forgot Fang, but those are what came to mind. I might be wrong on a couple as the story did blur together at some points, but overall, I think it had great character development unlike some of the other recent FF titles.
