Message: [QUOTE="plaindillo, post: 567041, member: 7098"] [SPOILER="I'm gonna spoil FF4 here but "]Seriously. [I][B]Let some of the characters die.[/B] [/I] You had like 5 death scenes that meant nothing once they all (except one) came back just to make the player happy. Not many of them even serve a purpose after they return, they're just there to all be back for the finale and it really got on my nerves the first time I played. Second,[I] [/I]Zemus is genuinely kind of dumb. He only shows up and has any hint of even existing in the last act of the story. I think as a concept he's interesting: The embodiment of hatred itself that channels his hatred through his descendants. However, he doesn't do much of anything ultimately. He just exists to explain away Golbez's misdeeds really. I think that the story would have been more interesting if Golbez [I]was[/I] a villain, like the hatred of Zemus being manipulated into Golbez's own hatred. Golbez could then instead have a change of heart when faced with the reality of what his actions have been for. Give Golbez and Cecil a moment or battle to share with each other and further drive a relationship between hero and villain, that's important. And hint at Zemus a little earlier somehow. Reveal his existence at least. [/SPOILER] [/QUOTE]
