Special Event Polling / Re: Rate Cross Characters 34: Serge
« on: October 20, 2007, 12:50:54 pm »
Character Design: He's a teen with typical teen clothes for being an islander. Nothing special.
Combat Usefulness: Single-most powerful character in the game.
Tilt: Why do people like Serge so much? He has absolutely no character development whatsoever.
Final Grade: D.

Special Event Polling / Re: Rate Cross Characters 33: Riddel
« on: October 18, 2007, 02:00:43 pm »
Character Design: She's dark, mysterious, yet unlike the typical cliche evil looking Princess she's innocent and good at heart. Perhaps a little too innocent.
Combat Usefulness: A quality support character.
Tilt: Riddel is one of those characters whom you wonder about why she didn't join your party much sooner because of how valuable she is to many different plot lines, especially the sidequest to get the Mastermune. What's more, she's a fascinating character who shows a lot more personality than many of the characters in this game.
Still...I'm not sure if we had to absolutely have her as a full PC to fulfill her roles. Yes, she's valuable as a support and for Dario, but that's all she really is necessary for. Beyond that she falls by the wayside to much more powerful and story-important characters. As sad as it is, I'd have to give her a pass on my "stay a PC" list and bump her down to guest PC.

True. I'm not saying it'll be easy, but they're not falling as far under as Zeality thinks, and I don't see why we should root for their demise, other than some fanboyish idiocy.

I forgot about that. The original design is better, as is her hair design.
Really, Mel is a piece of crap in the actual game. What moron thought this version was better than that art?

Still...that coatvest thingy Mel is wearing would've been great...as well as making her a little older, since she's just a brat as she is now.

Yeah...Mel and Korcha have much better designs in this art than they did in the game. Why didn't they go with this art?

Sony will not die. Even if they lose in the console wars they've got a lot of things going for them yet. They're a solid company that makes normally solid products. This fanboyism does not suit you, Zeality.

Idiots. I agree that we need to address environmental concerns but you don't do it by taking over power plants!

Special Event Polling / Re: Rate Cross Characters 32: Razzly
« on: October 11, 2007, 11:15:40 am »
Character Design: Beautiful cute little fairy pixie like entity. I like her flower wand and the pink puff balls.
Combat Usefulness: She's a green, but not too powerful from what I remember.
Tilt: She's important to the story insofar as Kid's recovery is concerned--if you take that path--and has nice little points of view on other events, such as witnessing the death of the Hydra to inform the Dwarves that the hydra was pregnant...but beyond that, not really useful. Like many such characters she gets a point in the game where she'll shine and then disappear from the stage forever, which means she does not qualify as a PC. I still really like her though.
Final Grade: C.
On a side note, I'm beginning to wonder if a Final Fantasy XII style guest party member system might not be so bad after all for a redux of Chrono Cross...while many characters would still be written out, characters like Razzly could still join and be important for their spot on the stage.
