I think the worst character was that head master Cid
Cloud – Absolutely no redeeming value here. A flat, one-dimensional character with no definition but his questionably written history.
Vincent – Same as above, for the most part, except his backstory was slightly more clear. He still suffers from being nothing more than a personality archetype.
Squall – A boring emo kid.
Rinoa – Do characters get any more generic?
Amarant – Such a pointless character should never have been a party member. It seems he’s merely there to fill the same personality archetype that Vincent did in FFVII.
First, i`d have to totaly disagree. I really found him very compelling and i`m looking forward to the Dirge of Cerberus to find out more about his past. Plus, not that it means much story wise, i thought his character design was great. From the original Yoshitaka Amano paintings to the finished character designs, Vincent in my opinion stands out. But hey, merely a difference of opinion.
Worst character?
Quina and Eiko from FFIX always stood out as quite annoying and worthless characters, so i`ll go with them. And i`d like to give a quick mention to the following:
Rikku, yuna, Rinoa, Selphie, Caith Sithand Sabin.
Sabin is not from FF VII – X-2 like the OP wanted.
That being said, don’t make threads in general final fantasy about non-general things.
also: there’s other threads like this.
