Question: Did any of you suspect Kuja to be Zidane’s brother?
I love this game, but I couldn’t agree with you more.
It wasn’t exactly an "OMG, NO WAI!" moment, but it didn’t feel cliche to me because I hadn’t really thought about it until Garland talked about it. Then things started to fall into place.
The bigger surprise for me was finding out Dagger was from Madain Sari.
That was a much bigger surprise to me as well.
I loved the entire game. xD

Same here although I attempt to keep the element of surprise in tact so I don’t think about these kinds of things. LOL!
It’s a great game though as is the case with most Final Fantasy games.
I loved the game. even though I had to start again countless times cause of data corruption (thats why I make two files). and waiting for months to try on a hard boss. The hardest was the FINAL one. A pain in the ass.
I owned it since I was 11 and completed it in 2006 XD
The game does toss one hint, though, which I only ever really picked up on in hindsight. The elevators in the Iifa Tree — they don’t react until Zidane boards them. They’re obviously keyed to respond only to the presence of a Genome (or, more generally, someone from Terra.)
Wow, I never thought of that. I always wondered on my numerous playthroughs why there is no response when Eiko stands on one.
Hmm, that felt a little more obvious to me. I mean, in the beginning I could tell that it was her escaping on some boat and the fact that she could summon Eidolons and found Madarin Sari familiar kinda gave it away.
However, on topic, I didn’t see the Kuja-Zidane thing coming.
The game throws in a lot of hints about Zidane. He’s also the only one able to understand anything written in the Oeilvert dungeon, and he’s able to decipher the words written on the mirrors in Ipsen’s Castle.
Good point… I never really took much of that into consideration.
And Sarah is so plain. WHy not name her after a rock?
😛
Tot: "That girl has a horn… That horn… I had completely forgotten about it until now… I’d never been as surprised as I was that day. A ship drifted ashore after a storm… Inside the ship were a woman and a baby girl… The woman was dead, but the girl was still breathing… Imagine my surprise as I looked into the girl’s face! Because the girl… …looked exactly like Princess Garnet, who had just passed away. With one exception… She had a horn! … The king ordered the girl’s horn removed. The girl cried out in pain… He and his wife, Queen Brahne, decided to raise he girl as Princess Garnet…"
Tot was one of the few who knew that she wasn’t Brahne’s real daughter. For example — Beatrix didn’t know, but when Dagger attempts to tell her later, she informs her that Doctor Tot let her know, but her loyalty remains as strong as ever.
A little off topic here but when you all first saw Garland didnt you think he would be the main villan??
I was glad that didn’t happen, felt a bit relieved when Kuja gracefully kicked him off the castle.
Garland, yes, I figured would be the main bad guy. The first thing he talks about when he shows up is how Kuja screwed him over so badly, and how he’d show them, etc. etc. etc.
It just seemed like Kuja had been his bitch or something, and anyone with Kuja for a bitch coulldn’t be a good guy. 😛
Yeah.
I thought I was the only one who understood the whole Kuja scene after Zidane and company is defeated by Beatrix. Most people would think he was talking about Vivi, as I did the first time I played it through.
