Oh my--Kidd in her hospital gown?
« on: July 07, 2004, 11:30:36 pm »
I was just playing through a New Game+, the first time I ever chose to not rescue Kidd (the guilt is killing me even as we speak ;-;). Visited Radius, met Fargo, kicked up dirt at the dry Water Dragon Isle, then scooted my rear end back to Guldove. And to my wondering eye did appear, but Schala! ... Not exactly, it was just Kidd with her hair down in the hospital gown.

But she's the identical twin of Schala in the Time Devourer.

I know, I know, "They're clones!" But c'mon. Is this another of Square's rampant "must reuse sprites/3D character models!" fixations? a subtle little hint unless you didn't hear Lucca screaming "SHE'S SCHALA!!" the first hundred times? or maybe I just have issues and need to find me a nice strait jacket?

Comments anyone?

Yeah, I noted this in the Cross Phenomena thread as well. Good eye; they sure did reuse that 3d model. Cheap.

Why not re-use? It fits for the scene, and it also gives a hint. I mean, it's also kind of an optional thing to see anyways depending on which path you take...Saves space baby! CC was a two disc PSX title, remember? And they sure as hell had plenty of OTHER sprites...
