Rinoa death scene

So when Rinoa was flouting through space and the message came up " life support system terminated" and Rinoa said "this is it Squall... good bye..." or something like that, how did you feel?

i was like "ahhh it's ff7 all over again" i almost turned the ps off i didn't want to go though the rest of the game without Rinoa

man talk about a heart sinking moment

so how did you feel when Rinoa was close to death?

I was ecstatic, because she is one of my most hated characters in all of Final Fantasy history. Then I realised, damn, she can't die. Too early on for that to happen D:

....and then she survived the whole game. 8D

i liked rinoa tbh, she has be the way she is because Squall is so introverted.
Smart guy that i am i also realised that she wasnt going to die, because romance is hugely important in FFVIII, pretty much everyone except quistis experiences love, so there was no way that they could possibly kill Squall's romantic interest.
unless to have his desire for revenge drive the rest of the plot, which would have failed, and it would have been etremely cliched

I didn't care. XD Especially since my friends were there, and they all hate her. A couple of them cheered, I think.

I liked Rinoa too, I remember thinking aw fuck me, not again

I was feeling rather annoyed at Square at that moment, altho rescuing her from space was a pain in the arse

AMEN.
I only liked Rinoa in the demo, when she was mute.
I also liked her when she was in a coma...for obvious reasons.
I was happy when she 'died,' but I knew Squaresoft was just teasing me.

They wouldn't have actually killed Rinoa, for many reasons. You don't usually kill off a disliked character. Aerith is a generally well-liked character, so killing her was effective. If Rinoa died? ....Well, the game would have been better, that's for sure. But an emotional scene? Not at all.

Sorry for the Rin-bashing, but she's really the only one in FF games that irked me to such a high degree. If I had cared at all about her, I would have cared about her supposed 'death.'

For some reason, I kinda had a feeling that Rinoa wouldn't end up dying in the game, so that space scene didn't really have an effect on me. Rather, I was more curious as to what was about to happen. I honestly like her character and all that shit. xD

I knew she wouldn't die right after I finally rescued her, I was abit dissapointed, since I didn't want to go through anything as horrible as that space scene again, but relieved because, aside from Zell, my other characters sucked

I was so sad! I liked Rinoa because she was annoying and I could identify with her. I also built her up a lot, so if she died I would have been pissed. I really like that space scene though, because everything seemed so dreary and morbid... if Rinoa died, then there wouldn't be anyone to make Squall not emo.
