Yikes, those leftystats were just abysmal.At least he improved, but the 88th and 85th really don't reflect well on him. Balthier seems to be the kind of character who went from beloved to "whatever" as his game aged. He won in his debut when everyone was on an XII high and now... he has a couple fans? --- Come check out my movie watchthrough topic: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/80167031 ...

I feel like Balthier still retains the mantle of the game's most generally popular character, it's just that he doesn't have anyone that has him as their #1 favorite so he tends to suffer a bit because of that. Stats probably suggest Ashe is the most popular by numbers, but I still think in a general poll head to head people would pick Balthier.

where's the guy who is guff Saveless, for the record. Despite my best efforts to convince them otherwise both v_charon and guffguy89 have chosen to continue to ride the Pretty Boy Pony over the Hot Guy Helicopter, meaning Seymour will likely score another top 20 while the best poor, smoking hot Basch can hope for is like... 35th unless someone changes their mind and/or he picks up more secondary or casual support. Neither of which is likely. I mean with Balthier gone Basch moves up to my third priority, but I don't know what that'll amount to with Vincent struggling to even make it out of the three save rounds here. It probably won't amount to much! --- That girl is poison... Never trust a big butt and smile :> ... Copied to Clipboard!

Balthier's main problem is that he won immediately, so he had nowhere to go but down from there. Fan favorite characters who haven't won are more likely to keep getting pushed.
The secondary problem is that FFXII doesn't have enough hardcore fans to keep him (or any of them, really) afloat consistently. --- https://imgur.com/WqDcNNq https://imgur.com/89Z5jrB ... Copied to Clipboard!

I seem to recall Ashe's STATS being pretty bad for a finalist because she doesn't have very many good showings besides that one, but maybe that's changed over the last few years. I'd guess Balthier is still #1 for FFXII for overall STATS. --- https://imgur.com/WqDcNNq https://imgur.com/89Z5jrB ... Copied to Clipboard!

Balthier hasn't aged well for me. I just feel like I've seen so many really good scoundrel characters over the years that he feels lacking.
Ashe and Basch are character archetypes who have less competition and as such look better comparatively even if I did initially prefer Balthier. It's basically a pretty meh version of a character archetype I really like vs decent versions of character archetypes I'm not as fond of. The older I get, the more stories I experience, Balthier just seems less and less special. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! ... Copied to Clipboard!

Leonhart4 08/09/23 10:12:44 PM #263: |
I don't even think of Balthier as a scoundrel character. He's a guy posing as a scoundrel to distance himself from his true identity.

I think he plays at being an air pirate, but he doesn't do any particularly scummy things unless he's just playing into people's expectations, and even then, he doesnt wind up doing what they expect (Ashe's ring being the primary example). --- https://imgur.com/WqDcNNq https://imgur.com/89Z5jrB ...

Year of Brothers, I like it! Good excuse to finally get Brother in. Let's see...
FFI I don't recall any brothers FFII has Firion but Maria is an adopted sister so it's iffy Never played FFIII FFIV has Palom Never played FFV FFVI has Sabin and Edgar but they're usually in already Never played FFVII FFVIII has no brothers that I can recall FFIX has Zorn and Thorn, I think they technically count as brothers FFX has the brother, Brother Never played FFXI Never played FFXII FFXIII doesn't have any brothers I can think of Never played FFXIV Never played FFXV Never played FFXVI World of Final Fantasy also has Lann.

It is 2030. FF7 has made the finals 9 years in a row, coming up short every time. Roba still has not played FF7. Martin begs Roba to play it and he will main whoever he likes. Roba plays through the series and decides his favorite character is Cissnei.

Roba is a man of culture, so he will play remake instead of the vastly inferior original and his favorite will be either Barret or Jessie.
