What is the WORST plot twist(s) in the FF series, in your opinion? (see below)

Speaking of FF8, I get the strong suspicion it might grab this award. Let's see who takes the cake. I unfortunately haven't played every single Final Fantasy so some twists will elude me. I will include the Other category for this reason. I'm including a few from each title Please mark all spoilers, even in your posts. Please mark all spoilers, even in your posts. Please mark all spoilers, even in your posts. FF8 - FF7 - FF10 - FF9 - FF6 - FF12 - FF15 - FF13 - Please remember if you mark Other and post another twist, to hide that shit. Also feel free to add any other twists from the above titles and vote for them. Just let me know which one. Best Minigame: Triple Triad via FF8 Worst Minigame: Dodging Lightning via FF10 Best Gameplay Mechanics: Set classes and (learnable) abilities via FF4/6/9 Worst Protagonist: Vaan via FF12 Best Cid: Cid Highwind via FF7 Worst Dungeon: The Great Crystal via FF12 Best Soundtrack: OST via FF7 Worst/Most Annoying/Difficult Optional Boss/Enemy: Absolute Virtue via FF11 Best Story: Yasumi Matsuno via FFTactics Worst Story: Motomu Toriyama via FF13 series Best Director: Yoshinori Kitase via FF6, FF7, FF8, and FF10.

FF1 timeloop. This one. It comes out of literally no where and has a major effect on the plot. FF8's "plot twist" is at least a little hinted at by the whole "GFs are rumoured to cause memory loss", and Irvine's gun troubles, and also it doesn't actually effect the plot so it's less a plot twist and more a random background fact. ...

I actually like the time loop twist in 1. In the PSP version at least it's heavily hinted at by the sages anyway.
But definitely 8. I pretty much like every other twist in the poll tbh. Although the ff15 twist was handled very poorly, but the idea was interesting. --- <insert sig here> ... Copied to Clipboard!

ultimate reaver 01/05/21 5:18:12 PM #28: |
FF8 has the worst plot not only of any final fantasy, but of any big named JRPG I can think of. It edges out 13 in that respect.
The plot twist in it is one of the more funny parts of it, but it's still horrifically bad. Nothing else really approaches it. 7 has some plot failings but the twist isn't one of them. 9 is more a high concept gone awry and at least manages to be interesting. 10's is really stupid anime gobbldiguk but doesn't descend to 8's depths ever. --- I pray god will curse the writer, as the writer has cursed the world with this beautiful, stupendous creation, terrible in its simplicity, irresistible in truth ...

I know FF 8's going to run away with this, but I have to say it never bothered me. The twist certainly doesn't hold up under a microscope now that I'm old and bitter, but the younger, less worldly me actually liked it. Or maybe it's just that I like the events that framed the twist well enough (
On the other hand, FF 12 came out when I was older and bitter, so that got my vote. --- Simple questions deserve long-winded answers that no one will bother to read. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Think we should have a best final boss theme category for one of these. There are so many great ones even if Dancing Mad or One Winged Angel will probably win because they're the most well known.

I still don't understand FF8's story to this day. The ending cutscene makes no sense. It's a comic booky stable time loop. Like all time loops, it makes less sense the more you think about it. --- Dedicated to D - 4/15/05 ... Copied to Clipboard!
