What if I told you characters could be female?

What if I chimed in and agreed, before lamenting that there aren't enough female main characters?

I'd probably tell you not to patronize me.

honestly... i think what makes a good character are the other characters.

the way they interact is what make us like the different things about them. the characters in ff10 were so different from each other and i just had to love all of them. on the other hand... i cant stand it when they just push a bunch of emo "life sucks" characters into one game because those characters are "cool".

any character can be great as long as they are easy to relate to and understand. usually ones fav characters from video games/movies/shows are those he can relate to the most.

characters that you just cant relate to for example vaan from ff12, amarant (is that even his name?) from ff9 are pointless and usually hated.

he was an excuse for the cool lonely wolf. he actally is techincally part of your party and you can choose him. he was so uninteresting most people dont even remember his name. im surprised i did.

i think the only reason i remembered his name was BECAUSE i had to check it on the internet
