Final Fantasy VIII The first game in the series to consistently use realistically proportioned characters, FF8 also threw more of a futuristic mix into the old (Hi-)potion that is Final Fantasy.

Selphie...useless?

If you built her up right, shes one of the most devastating characters to play with.......i found Rinoa far more useless and her dog i wish would get neutered (though they do have one good attack)....after all Selphie is far more beautiful (and clumsy) than Rinoa...as for useless though, i found Irvine with his gun rather pointless (no pun intended) cuz if you didnt time anything properly or have the bullets whatever they are called he becomes the most useless sharpshooter ever....what didyou guys think of Irvine as a whole though? I thought he was misunderstood most of the game.

She's not completely useless, though. Usually she gets here full-cure limit often. She also has a limit that ends battles. I've only gotten it once though.
The limit that ends battles is hilarous.....shows the field and the background which i think ends every battle.......even kills queen Ultimicia. Its called for that reason (The End.)

lol well to me i find her useless..... Irvine is useful with the time and items to refine to get his bullets for the ulimate shot......
Selphie is cute and clumsy but not the best one...... probably what Cait Sith is to FF7..........lol

I like Selphie myself i think her Full Cure limit break really helps out the party.
If you wanna talk useless characters then i would have to point at Quistis and Rinoa!

First Quistis blue magic is not that really good especially when you have guys that can do over 100.000 damage in a row with their limit breaks

The we have Miss Rinoa granted she can have a devastating limit break (Angel Wing) if you use Meteor atack what can she really do besides that?

At least Selphie works as a cheap healer.

My favorite party consistes of Irvine;Selphie and Zell.

Now that you mention it, Quistis and Rinoa are pretty useless,I only used Squall, Zell, and Irvine.

Yeah because considering most enemies can be defeated easily and only a few have high HP and need to be delt with limit breaks. You rather use Squall,Irvine and Zell instead of any of the female characters. And since Selphie heals for free i reckon she is more useful than Rinoa and Quistis.

She is very very "I-can't-stress-this-enough" annoying however her limits have enormous benefit. And being as she is annoying reglardless of if she is on the battle screen I may as well take advantage of them

bleah...Selphie makes me want to gag (Which i do when i see her), because(au contraire to the Aeris#1fan comment "after all Selphie is far more beautiful (and clumsy) than Rinoa" she's gotta be the most hideous person (maybe not the most, but really damn close) i've ever seen...Rinoa is pretty kewl, i like her outfit and wish i had it for myself! ...okay...now i'm scaring myself with the whole "Girly girly" scene...*shudders*...

I personally didn't use her, but I guess she sorta fits into the story, but not too much. Isn't she like disguised as someone at first? i know she's got some kinda mask on and she has to take it off to reveal her true identity. Am I even thinking of the right thing? Who knows. All I know is that she was like level 8 when I beat the game and I never used her.
