Do you save Shadow or let him die? - Page 4

I admit, i never used to save Shadow, but that's only because i thought his death was unavoidable, like Aerith's in FFVII. Discovering otherwise was purely accidental because i waited until the timer ran out from fighting.

I saved him. I didn't do it because I thought he was good in battle (although his Throw can do quite a bit of damage sometimes), but I did it because he was such a cool character. I probably wouldn't have realized that I even could save him if I hadn't read it in the walkthrough I was using (yes, I have a bad habit of relying way too much on walkthroughs). But yes, I did save Shadow, mainly because he's the freaking coolest character in the whole game.

Lol… No, I completely forgot about him the first time through (kinda amusing), but I’ve never forgotten him since. I doubt I really would have used him though.

Well, I let him die the first time through. I was too busy contrating on getting away from the Island.

I never leave a man behind! I stayed and waited for him, but I actually use Shadow all the time.

I saved him, because I'm a nice guy even if he does rob my money (I paid and he only lasted 4 battles WTF!?).

But I regretted afterwards...

Yeah, I save Shadow, but only because I have some sick sort of video game character sympathy.

Hahah that old chestnut. It annoys me when people complain about how the same the characters are, because they are only as same as YOU make them. You don't HAVE to teach Ultima and give Economizers to everyone ya'know.

But anyway, yeah, the complitionist in me demands that Shadow is to be saved. My very first play through I didn't because I didn't know you could but when I realized my friend had, I immediately found out the means in which to do it. Ever since, Shadow was saved every time. He's probably one of the most damaging characters in the game without having to rely on Relics. Stock up on Fuma Shurikens and your laughing!
