So, it occurs to me that Lightning's personality is much like a very bitchy Solid Snake.

Whoa wait a second what? She's got solid snake's personality but she's a bitch? Like if a dude acts that way he's badass solid snake and if a woman does it it makes her a bitchy something-something? Or are you saying that she is like solid snake except she complains more?

I don't want too make a big deal out of this but that first one? Sounds kinda messed up.

She's a Solid Snake personality, hardened war veteran super serious all the time blah di blah di blah, but she bitches a lot. Most of the characters in this game do a lot of bitching, regardless of gender. She is Solid Snake, but if Solid Snake was bitchier. It is not me saying she's a bitch because she has a vagina. It is me saying she is bitchy because she, like many an FF character, dedicates much of her dialogue to bitching.

Solid Snake never punched someone for nearly no reason.

I mean I haven't even played hardly any of FF13 and that still was like, "Wait, what?"

[MFD]

No, Snow deserved it.

HE ALWAYS DOES.

[Kim]

Not as badly as Hope deserves a good, old fashioned shitkicking.

I had asserted rather early in the game that the "mini-game" of the game should just be a Fight Night clone where you get to senselessly beat the living shit out of any of the cast. It would sure beat chocobo breeding, and I liked chocobo breeding!

Okay, let's take it from the top.

Bandana... Okay, that's actually not too bad.

Glove... Gloves are fine, but why does his glove have a belt and a zipper. Oh wait, because it's Nomura, that's why.

Oh look, even his collar has a belt.

Why does his shirt have two zippers? What is the point of that? Also, why is his shirt under his shirt so ratty?

It's kind of hard to see in this picture, but for some reason he seems to have an elbow pad on only his left elbow. Okay...

Okay, he's wearing two belts here. A regular belt and a studded belt, except the studded belt looks like it's half of a full belt and just kind of free-hanging there. Once again... Why?

WHY DOES HIS BELT HAVE A SCARF
I- I DON'T EVEN
WHAT

And, lastly, his shoes have belts around the backside. Ooooookay, we get it Nomura. You like belts.


I actually don't mind the designs in this game. It's just looks like Nomura couldn't stop drawing and had to keep attaching some random-ass pointless detail until they physically stopped him from drawing more.


The only character designs that I hate in the game are the party from NORA, but I heard Nomura isn't to blame for those. The rest of the designs are fine, just overdone.

The belt has very strong opinions on Palestine.

Actually, the gloves with belt+zipper are leather driving gloves. A guy at work has a pair similar to those ones so they do kind of fit the motorcycle driving moron that snow is.
