What kind of guys, and girls do you actually want to see in a Final Fantasy?

Everytime a character design surfaces, people's tongues start to wag. They'll say this and that, how they like/dislike a character, without even knowing the storyline yet, JUST because of how he/she looks.

Seriously....

What is it that you look for in a Final Fantasy character? in particular... just Final Fantasy.

What kind of [:oops: i feel awkward saying this, for some reason] attributes do you actually look for in a FF male and female character, respectively?

I hate it when they make main characters a bit... feminine (Tidus, Zidane, even Vaan from FFXII), but i have to say they got me with the new guy from FF Versus XIII, hes REALLY cool! he looks like Sasuke ^^, i hope they have a good personality ready for him...

And for girls, well, they have to be cool like rikku or yuna (in FF X-2, not FFX) the new girl from FFXIII is looking pretty good too XD

I have to say im pretty exited with the characters square is bringing in the new FFXIII's

It was noted by Tetsuya Nomura, during the production of FFVIII, he mentioned the fact that he wants to make FF females not pretty, and just pretty. [the technology of FMVs allows creation of really great graphics.. :|]

He wants personality in FF females, not just the usual outlook appeal. Maybe that's why, we see not all just fanciful show-off of certain attributes of a female, but most importantly, all along, we see the personality in all FF females.

Well I prefer say Auron to any of the main characters. I don't want them to be flirty like Tidus and Zidane, and I don't want them to be depressed and/or crazy like Squall and Cloud. They should just be cool.Darmi

Cloud and Squall are the most popular characters as far as male characters from different FF games go. Cloud is in a lot of ways like me. I can connect with him more than I could some stupid "cool" guy. I have been turned down for numerous things. I have tried to prove I coud be a strong man, but never really fully succeeded. But, whenever I do care for someone, something happens to them. I can really connect with the strong silent types than with the popular guys.

Popular that is "cool" people always put the little man down and then something happens to the little man and he is hurt in some way. They only care for themselves and would never put themselves in danger for someone else. Cloud, though a jerk at the begining off FFVII, becomes the hero everyone loves. He finds redemption in the end.

Not one person understands what certain qualities could mean fro the series. If they do cool guys, the "coolness" could become a problem and make FF "just another RPG."

My reason of the interpretation was to show how one thing could change the whole.

Guys should be strong and willing to sacrifice for others and stop at nothing to redeem themselves.

Ladies should be optimistic to keep the spirits of the group up.

People just don't understand what passion is. And I don't mean love. The characters should show emotion in events, to help the game be an "emotional roller coaster." Emotions can however hinder or help.

Girls should be more like Tifa.

Guys should be more like Cloud.

Girls should be more like Tifa.

Guys should be more like Cloud.

Personally, i really dislike guys like Tidus... they can make him look all whimpery and small, and this is the kind of guys i never look for. Guys should be the upholder of the party's ideas, the person with immense strength and intelligence.

As for the girls, they shouldn't be too pretty, in a sense, as girls are the emotional elements in most games. More personality should be put into the character designs, behaviours and actions. Not that they should look all gentle and kind and sweet, but they should be showing signs of inner strength, seen only by eyes that truly believes and know the game.

Girls should be more like Tifa.

Guys should be more like Cloud.
