Mac Arrowny posted... It's a bit confusing when I see people say they voted for story and not characters. Characters are story I get what you're saying, and in a sense, you're right, but I think you can make a distinction between character arcs and the overarching story. For example, I didn't vote for FFVIII because I don't think the overarching story about Ultimecia, time kompression, and all that, is particularly well told and is often poorly explained. What I love is Squall's character arc, his growth, how he interacts with the other characters and how those interactions change over time, and FFVIII is full of Squall foils, and I love me some foils. Or to use another example, Tales of the Abyss. I really enjoy Luke's character arc, but all the stuff about the Score, fonons, the Seventh Fonon, etc. just feels like nonsense after a while. I think Symphonia kills Abyss in the story department (and characters, too, but yeah). --- ... Copied to Clipboard! |
