I never understood why people need every playable character to be viable or similar in strength to other characters.

In real life, not everyone will be of equal value

Kain is the worst written character in the game, which is no small feat considering the whole story is like 95% cliches.

Rydia is the best because her tits are the biggest.

It would be fun to take a bunch of Amano pictures and make people guess what they were from. Lord knows he's the kind of artist who you have to bend towards and not the other way around.

>> No.4342065

>>4340151
Not to mention that he's coded to gain tremendous stat boosts at higher levels. I've been told that much is original coding (perhaps as a joke), but it could be strictly for FFIVAdvance. I've never tried to level him up to anything close to 75, much less beyond it, so I don't know.

If it makes you feel any better, he's infinitely more a viable character in TAY. Him and Palom got the best treatment in terms of characterization.

Play the PSP version for the definitive 2D experience. Play the PC version for the definitive 3D experience. The 3D version doesn't let you swap party members at endgame.

For TAY, the 3D version cuts down on a lot of the tedious bullshit.
