Gau's Rage was different, Strago was the Blue Mage in that one.

I mean, you’re right, but to me they’re both kind of Blue Mages cause they’re using enemy abilities, just renamed to Lore and Rage

[Tyrath]

Gau is like a unique combo of Blue Mage Berserker.

Disk 4 is the revelation that some no name god was behind it the entire time. I don't think the game sticks the landing tbh, but I'm in the minority and think it's the weakest playstation FF.

You're not alone (hah!) and I've never understood the fixation on the entry or an insistence for a remake. I'm a big medieval fantasy fan, but never really felt it returned to that "roots" it was supposed to. Forget about the shit characters and various loose ends that felt worse than the back half of Xenogears.

Because 9 is the most final fantasy a "modern" final fantasy ever fantasied, finally.

I question your taste if you think 9 has shit characters though.

[Anoat]

The XI blue mage aesthetic is unmatched and I’m utterly disappointed they haven’t given us a version of that armor in XIV especially with Thavnair basically being the XIV equivalent of India like come the fuck on its right there

Vivi, MAYBE Quina, and no one else.

Zidane and Garnet can get fucked

Zidane was a breath of fresh air as a MC. I appreciate him more and more as I get older.

And Dagger has a really satisfying character arc.

And Beatrix could crush you with any part of her body.

[arus2001]

Beatrix was the only character I liked from the game so of course we didn't get to recruit her.

Steiner and Vivi teaming up to do Swrd Art damage was an underrated mechanic

Hockey isn't fun to watch. It isn't even a sport.

You're not alone (yeah!) and I've never understood the fixation on the entry or an insistence for a remake.

Yeah, i think it was a fresh breath of air compared to VII/VIII which went super modern. 4 member parties, a delightfully funny game and a lot of epic moments. That still from bahamut vs alexander was my wallpaper for many years.

The only character I think was shit was Amarant. I don't think they had an idea on what to do with 'em. Also maybe Eiko? I don't really remember what she did besides help Garnet/Dagger. Its been 20 years, maybe she did other important stuff idk.

[Byrthnoth]

Eiko was fine for a late game character. Her story was thin but made sense and it made sense it was thin. B+
Amarant was an empty piece of paper that you were encouraged not to write on. D
Vivi was great. A+
I don't remember anything substantive about Quina except they seemed to decide they needed a weird race with two members for merch. C
Steiner was a blowhard but played his part well. B-
Freya's characterization was pretty minimal but they gave her a tragic past to compensate. C+
Garnet's arc was satisfying. A
Zidane was fun, but the alien world twist tainted my appreciation of his character. A-

I think we're all forgetting the best part of FF9.
