2. Zidane Tribal

And there goes my number two. Yay. Really though, Zidane stands out, because he doesn't fit the mold of your focal character in a Final Fantasy game. Most leads are either stoic (and potentially super boring, like FF4), bland, or fucking stupid (you know exactly which games I'm talking about Meg Ryan and airbrush abs.) But with Zidane, he manages to go JUST beyond that first line of your angsty Clouds and Squalls and Terras and Lightnings without crossing over into the territory of dumbasses like your Tiduses and Vaans. The guy is a sky pirate for crying out loud; that automatically buys him some cool points. More than that though, Zidane is fun and charming and charismatic. In an admittedly very high-fantasy serious storyline, Zidane's light-hearted personality stands out in a great way. There's no will they/won't they bullshit in FF9 because Zidane is gonna grab Garnet's ass and he will go to her rescue at the drop of the hat.

But on top of that, Zidane DOES have his angsty moments. It's one section really, but it allows him to develop beyond that of a lovable rogue archetype. He's lost Garnet because she's a princess and he's a thief, his life is falling apart because he's finding out about his test tube status, and I can't blame him for falling into a wee bit of depression, can you? But again, he pulls himself out of that funk with a little help from his fellow party members, and he winds up saving the day. Zidane is the main reason why FF9 stands out to me, because honestly, when I look at most of the rest of the playable cast, it's a perfectly inoffensive and average game. Zidane's uniqueness is what boosts FF9 in my eyes.

If it makes you feel better me saving would just mean Zidane would be out earlier

I actually can, yes. Zidane's a very poor attempt at trying to give a character depth by falling into the same patterns previous hit main characters like Squall and Cloud did. It comes off as forced and repetitive, removing a lot of what made Zidane actually appealing as his own unique character in the process and just making him come off as diet Cloud with less reasons to actually be depressed. I'm not saying it couldn't in theory be played that way, just that I feel the writing of the game didn't really deliver it too well at all.

Also I'm pretty sure he shouldn't actually have the steal command given how bad he is at it. I could lift items from these monsters with less attempts than he takes. If you think this is just a joke and doesn't factor into why I dislike him you would be wrong!
