Causes Zenny pain. Fad officially worth it~

EDIT: Alternatively, because I thought of something funnier after hitting post:

Well if you object to the loss of Citan-chu THAT much...

Surprised Snow hasn't grabbed Yuna yet~

I thought about picking Yuna or Rydia instead of the most obvious CT bait choice for a change to being
predictable with this as usual but I figured there were other more fitting choices to pick those two ;)

With my new site officially launching, it's time to ~~whore myself out wherever possible~~ finally put a signature in.

Nifty. (:

Tasteful! I like the site design and spiffy logo!

I might even -read- some of it!

Elfboy might kill me.

Went with a much cuter chibi.

I'll pass on your compliment to the graphic artist.

Any feedback - and passing on the link to others - would be much appreciated. If this doesn't become an income source / marketing vector by the end of the year, I will probably have run out of both. >_>

Everything is cooler than Hope. Hope is the single worst character in Final Fantasy. Hope is worse than getting a proper Xenogears sequel and it turns out to be an interactive simulator of Chu-Chu cornholing Rico and nothing else.

As someone currently rewatching FF9, I would contest any claim that the worst character from that series is not from this game.

... or possibly FFX-2.

BUT ELFBOY FREYA DEVELOPMENT HYPEP

FF9's fail characters either figure out they are awful by the end (Eiko) or are unoffensively bland (Freya, Amarant, Quina). Hope does not have this defense. The people who wrote him legitimately thought "this. This is what people want to see. They will think he is great."

Dark Holy Elf · « **Reply #64 on:** February 17, 2012, 06:59:47 AM »

Well that sums up how I feel about Zidane at least.

Anthony Edward Stark · « **Reply #65 on:** February 17, 2012, 07:28:58 AM »

Zidane was fine until he got all moody in Disc 3. Before that he just wanted to get rich and get some ass.

You'll be surprised to find out he turns out to be the most normal and none offensive person out of FF13-2.
I hope my statement can further discourage people from FF13-2.

So they cut his tongue out and sever the tendons in his arms and legs like Griffith in Berserk? That's the only way I can imagine him being tolerable.

Grefter · « **Reply #68 on:** February 17, 2012, 12:04:51 PM »

In a conversation between other people I would question why anyone taking part would think someone with a tongue cut out and having their ability to walk and move their arms destroyed constitutes as normal.

This is a conversation between Rob and Niu. Sounds about right.

Meeplelard · « **Reply #69 on:** February 17, 2012, 01:19:49 PM »

While I will admit that I don't hate Zidane and never had any love for Hope....

Elfboy's reaction to Zidane makes a lot more sense than Rob's reaction to Hope, in the "This. This is what creators thought people wanted to see."

Hope was someone thrust in because they needed someone to fill that niche for Lightning, to compliment her. That's not "This is what people wanted to see." Whether he does a good job or not is a different story entirely.

Zidane, meanwhile, was clearly made to be someone NOT like Cloud/Squall. After Cloud's got the fucked up psychological mess, and Squall's the anti-social prick, they wanted a more fun-loving, upbeat main. That was Zidane's point. This is something that seems more likely a "Fans will want to see this!" given I'm sure its easy to sell on the whole "ok, people are getting tired of the unrelatable jerks, lets make someone friendly for once!"
(yes, I know, Cloud isn't anything like Squall, but Cloud isn't exactly the most friendly of characters either. He's just not afraid to, you know, converse with his allies on stuff that isn't directly related to "stop the bad guy.")

Hope is pretty inoffensive in 13-2. He's 10 years older which helps.

Luther Lansfeld · « **Reply #71 on:** February 17, 2012, 05:25:13 PM »

Zidane would earn the vote for my least favorite character in an RPG if Xenosaga didn't exist. Amarant's awfulness to screentime ratio is alarmingly high but the low screentime prevents him from being bottom tier.

I didn't say normal, I said tolerable, which as far from normal as a FF13 character can be.

Mass Effect 3: Countdown to crushing disappointment can begin!

So after laughing at Guilty Crown for a good week straight, I decided I needed a Mana avatar.

Sadly I can't seem to get animated gifs to work properly, so this'll have to do.
