We're not talking about, "FF12 where Basch was the main character and Vayne had more development," we're talking about the game that was made and we actually played. You can't say "it was supposed to be like this!" as an example of proof why the game is good. Even if it was meant to be that way - I have heard that rumor as well - the fact is that it wasn't.

So as interesting as the idea is - and I think it sounds like the game would have been much better with both - it is completely irrelevant to the discussion at hand.

And I agree with the anon about character designer vs. director. If you don't like how Nomura draws, hey, that's something we can discuss. But he doesn't actually create the characterizations.

I was under the impression Nomura has some sort of say and influence in the actual character development, beyond drawing them.

Like, I try to imagine how Squall would have developed without that fur -lined jacket, or if Tidus actually wore pants instead of those mismatched things...

He does, but I think only to a degree? I remember that he said that for Tidus, he was given a list that included things like "foreign looking" and "an athlete," and that in FF8 he was surprised when they made Quistis a teacher based on her character design.

I was surfing the IGN message boards one day and someone had posted about how much more interesting the game would have been if Al-Cid was the main guy instead of Vaan. I heartily agree!
