Nearly everyone has their pet hate character. Mine is Wakka (out of the main ones anyway). But sometimes they do something that makes you think ... c'mon they're not so bad.

So own up, when did your pet hate character do/say something so good that you couldn't hate them, if only for a little time?

I guess for me its when Wakka makes his speech about blitz making people forget Sin. "This is the only time. The players fight with all their strength; the fans cheer for their favourite team. They forget pain, suffering... Only the game matters!"

This is so true about games, and its one of Wakka's best moments. You gotta love the big jerk when he says it, don'tcha?

I agree that Wakka had an awesome moment there. But I'm afraid my most hated character, Seymour, had no such redeeming point.

In X? Wow, I never got around to finishing the game. But I've played most of it. And pretty much hated Yuna both times through. And Tidus. They got over themselves a bit I guess. I didn't hate them quite as much the second time. But I don't know why

Wakka should be like a token hate for liberals and athiests xD He's such a conservative religious type. But he doesn't really preach it, he just makes it (very) apparent what he believes

But I loved him because as the story progressed, he opened his eyes and opened his mind

In general a lot of people should take an example there

Wakka <3

Editted :]

Yes, thank you for that. I now have an excuse to ban all logical discussion and simply bitch at you for making an invalid stereotypical comparison of myself and those who share my beliefs to Wakka. Then, in about 5-10 posts, this thread will be closed, we'll both be warned or banned, and we'll all feel much better about the world.

Or we can simply try to leave the comparative relegion out of it, m'kay?

Its just like Berret being ghetto. Or Squall being anti-social emo. Its a stereotype. An obvious one. I also said I like Wakka regardless. I wasn't starting anything. If you disagree. Fine. Tis just how I see it

Start an argument over it if you think you must. I've no intention of doing or saying anything ban-worthy, or justify being warned over

Just because a stereotype is distasteful doesn't mean it's not based in some truth. There are a loooooooooot of people here down South that fit his personality well

Kimarhi was redeemed to me when I found out how to take him through the sphere grid.

I liked everyone else, but after I played x-2, wakka started grating on me because the voice actor kinda went nuts with his accent and it sounded so terrible, then it rubbed off backwards onto ffx, and I stopped playing him as much xD

Actually, y'know what. I'm gonna save us all some trouble and edit my post. Cause he's not specifically a stereotype of a certain religion. Any hyper conservative religious person could fit the bill in any religion

My apologies, Sky. Was making an observation, not intending to attack your people :]

I've nothing against those of faith. Just those of faith who get annoying about it. And I've never noticed you be that way. So neh. I'm sorry :}

Much better, thank you.

Anyway, I didn't hate Wakka either, and he did have a couple awesome scenes.

But I still maintain that Seymour had no positive aspects at all.
