So here's the official art of Setzer from Final Fantasy Six.


Compared to the in game model of Setzer from KH2


not only that, but in Final Fantasy 6, Setzer was a gambler who stole opera stars and raped them in his airship. in Kingdom Hearts 2, he plays with stuffed bats in Twilight Town with Roxas and Kid Seifer.

A grown man.

Playing with little kids.

With stuffed bats.

[Alpha Six]

Didn't we already establish that KH is incredibly homosexual

[A.J. Nitro]

Osiris, have you even played any of the KH games?

[Alpha Six]

Yes. Was not thoroughly impressed at all. The games are kinda fun and everything but the storyline and the characters are just so blech. It wouldn't matter that much if it wasn't an RPG. Storyline kinda matters, and if it's shit-poor I'm not going to play it.

[Ton]

I liked the first one. Thought the second was mediocre.

[Emma]

...goddamn, i wish that high school musical world was real.

they won't make a final fantasy or chrono trigger world. you know why? all the non-original worlds are based on disney films.

Yeah Setzer was a piece of homosexual shit.

[Hinako Yoshitora]

I never really could get into the Kingdom Hearts series. Mainly the fanbase was a turn-off, I know that's a really lame excuse, but it's true. x___o;

[Skink]

Yeah Setzer was a piece of homosexual shit.

More like the whole game.

I just had to say it.

ARGH SORA'S VOICE

[Nicodareus]

They tried that. Remember how much of an abomination they turned Setzer into?

not even a little bit


images of how they messed him up pls

you see the pls that means i want them now but im avoiding calling you a meanie face

I agree, really. Seeing Setzer in the game and done as well as he was, was one of the few saving graces for Kingdom Hearts II to me. But I really doubt they could pull off most of their classic FF chars that well. Especially after seeing what they did to the other FF chars in the series in general. I really don't want to see 10 year old Terra skipping rope.

So here's the official art of Setzer from Final Fantasy Six.


Compared to the in game model of Setzer from KH2

Going from a 2D model of an older version of Setzer to a 3D model of a younger version of him? I'd say that's a pretty damn good job. The finer details aren't in place, but it's clearly the same person, which you can't say for most of their FF chars. And most of those FF chars were 3D to begin with. Personally I'm more fond of the 3D model anyways. The 2D model, (Which is only an artists depiction of a 16-bit sprite.. Much like the 3D model is.. Let's not glorify it as more than it really is) is just too gay and girly for me. And I myself am pretty gay and girly. So that's saying something.

not only that, but in Final Fantasy 6, Setzer was a gambler who stole opera stars and raped them in his airship. in Kingdom Hearts 2, he plays with stuffed bats in Twilight Town with Roxas and Kid Seifer.

I guess you missed the part where he wasn't a full grown man in KH2.. He was kiddified. (But luckily not totally bastardized like the other kiddified FF models)

Not to mention there's plenty of alternate universe/scifi bullshit to explain away any misconceptions you might have that they are supposed to be the same Setzer. It was a cameo, like any of the rest of the FF characters who showed up. It could have been worse. It coulda been more emo-drama like Cloud, Sephiroth and Auron were.

...You could still easily identify every 10-year-old ff char in kingdom hearts though. very, very easily.

also, fuck you, auron is amazing. he's allowed drama. he wasn't the main character in his game. basically, i am a great big auron fangirl. does it show?

[8-Bit Squirrel]

The fan base never really got to me because I only knew one other person who played the games. Plus it was a guy that was my age.

Heh, identifiability wasn't really what I was addressing. If they were only meant to be identifiable, than they succeeded with every FF char with Setzer being up there among the best.

And I like Auron well enoughas a character. Just not fond of the emo-drama role he was given with the other fangirl characters in KH to appeal to the droll 'zomg life sucks soooo hard.. Oh woe is me, oh WOE IS ME!!!' crowd that seems to make up not only our teenager's these days, but sadly, my own generation before them.

I'm not saying they should have put on Hawaiian shirts and gone for a stroll through the park, but the drama with the FF majors was entirely overdone in KH2. I miss the age when video games and movies could do well without characters that made you want to slit your own wrists, much less theirs.

[Emma]

Auron's angst and drama? Basically straight out of FFX. They didn't make any emo shit up for him.

Cloud and Sephiroth's emo drama? Also basically straight outta FFVII.
