11. I love Celes so much. ;_;

Actually, one of the things I really liked about FFVI, though, was how Terra didn't end up with anybody. Because as much as I ship her with Edgar, I thought that was a really nice smack in the face to the stereotypical true love happy endings, suggesting that a woman can find fulfillment and love in ways other than the healing cock.

I think that's kind of a tangent there, but yeah. Female characters, avoiding the stereotypes, blah blah etc /o/;;

I really never end up liking the FFs with canon romance as much as I do the ones without it. I might like a character or story arc a whole lot, but in terms of overall, I mean. I'm not sure if it's because of that, or if that's a side effect of the fact that a romance-centered plot just happens to do a lot of things that I don't like.

If there's one thing that I really like is when a story of any sort (and games especially) takes a genre stereotype and neglects it. There's a lot to be said for really getting that stereotype and doing it well, but there's even more to be said, imo, for shooting for the thing that isn't commonly done*. As much as people rag on the FF games for being walking stereotypes (I'm sure you've seen at least some of my conversations with that FPS fan irl friend of mine), I think they're anything but. There's a lot of times that they're really gutsy when it comes to bucking the existing stereotypes and still pulling it off.

Lol on topic what is that?

*Edit: And by which I mean actually trying to do it. Because I think FFXII proved to me that Squeenix wasn't really trying on certain previous attempts to make "strong aggressive female leads." (*Cough FFX-2 yes?) If you try to buck a stereotype only halfheartedly, I think you screw it up more than if you really want to take that stereotype and shove it somewhere.
