FFXIII Character Review

OK, so it's midnight and I can't sleep. Thought I'd tackle some junk. Not literally, but y'know.

First you've got Lightning. Fighting, she's pretty good with Commando, but don't ignore her Ravenger, either. She's good with chaining. Personality, she's a bit cold-hearted, but I hear that's what the military can do to you. She's just trying to look out for her sister is all...

Next I think is Sazh. Why the 'h'? I don't know. He's kinda like Basch for me, it took me forever just to figure out how to say his name. Fighting, just find a good weapon, it'll make a difference. Personality, he really cares about his son, you can tell. Tends to joke around, I guess. I don't use him in my party, so I don't really know how to describe him. The chocobo is awesome, though.

Vanille is your quirky type that has to be in ever FF. She's just really carefree, which must be hard considering what all she's been through. Also may or may not be lesbian, hopefully not though, 'cause she's my favorite character... Anyway, she's great will magic and is just about the second best Medic, though you may want to stick with her since she's got more HP.

Dang, I forgot Snow, didn't I? Barbara thinks his name is ironic, because who ever heard of hot snow? Anyway, he's got a pretty loud personality to say the least. Kind of impulsive. But he really cares about Serah, I could've just cried when he proposed. Fighting, he's going to be your best Sentinel and a good Commando, but no magic for him.

I'll tell you what, Hope is probably the character who surprised me the most. I thought he was like 16. Nope, y'know how old? 14. How does a 14-year-old kid get dragged into THIS kind of mess? Anyway, he's got guts, I'll tell you what. You just really see him grow throughout the game. Hope's also got my favorite line in the game: Vanille - "You OK?" Hope - "Oh yeah, I'm great." (You just have to see it.) Fighting's not much his style, he's got low HP but great magic capabilities, so Medic, Synergist, Sabateur, and maybe Ravenger are more his speed.

OK, Fang. Oh, was she still supposed to be a secret? ..... Oh well, you would've found out eventually. She's kinda feisty, I guess, I don't put her in battle often enough. The other half to the possible lesbian equation, but I don't know, sometimes Hope looks like he's got it for Vanille. Wow, you know you've gotten pathetic when you're discussing the love lives of video game characters. Anyway, she comes pre-packaged with a ton of CP and the Sentinal paradigm, so that helps out in later battles. She's actually a pretty well-rounded character... I just don't like her too much.
