FFVI I believe made me feel that an RPG was more than just a bunch of good guys out to defeat the bad guy.

I never really got that feeling--that's probably why I don't consider FFVI to be amazing. Like good, yeah, but not one of my favorites. But then, a ton of other people (the ones that aren't all OMG graphix 3-D lolz) seem to agree that it was great, so I'm not disputing that. *dies*

But have you ever played SoM? The girl wasn't overbearing at all, just totally kickass. Assuming you did (and seriously try it if you haven't!), skip this whole paragraph. *dies* But yeah! Like, there are three ways for the plot to branch before you get the girl. She rescues you (<3--and why help her? You owe her your life! *dies*), then: 1. You go find her and she forces herself into your party (and you go do her quest through the witch's forest, which is related to yours anyway). 2. You don't go find her, and get the Sprite first, and then you find her in the woods alone. 3. You do go find her and she forces herself into your party, but you decide not to do her quest and go get the Sprite, in which case the girl is like "Fine, to hell with you, I don't need you!" and leaves to go fight by herself (which I thought was AWESOME <3 <3 <3) and you find her in the forest like you would've if you hadn't picked her up.

But then, like you said, it's all personal preference. SoM is easily my favorite SNES RPG ever. It wasn't all about knights and prophecies and princesses in castles being kidnapped by the dark wizard, either! The guy that gets mostly "kidnapped" is the guy the girl's crushing on the whole time. And the main character in the beginning kinda -causes- the whole thing in the first place (although mana was weakening already by the time he does anyway) by pulling out the sword and unleashing monsters everywhere (which is why the village kicks him out) so he's kinda partially cleaning up his own damn mess the whole time. *dies* And the whole time, it manages to be cute and stuff (flying dragons! Mushrooms! Rabites! Candy and Chocolate as healing items! Rudolph as an NPC!)

asfdaghkjg okay, yeah, I'm just fanboying this now. Uh, I'll stop.

Ah, and so that is where we drastically differ: I was in the market for non-cute-rollercoaster-of-t3h-drama at the time and FFVI filled that in for me very well.

And sadly, I never got to play the game. ;(

I got around to playing Seiken Densetsu 3 though! It was fun! (Didn't dissect the game though, just ran through it once with an all boys team with Kevin in the lead (Kevin's plot is so WTF) and just forgot to replay it.)

I wish there was an english release of Mother 3. :(

adfjghakdg Try it! Uh, if you find the time, and stuff. *dies* It's way more coherent than SD3 (I had no idea what was going on for half the game) AND has a better/cooler fighting/weapon system. I could upload the ROM really quick if you want!
