| 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?
Alright, I want to get your guys opinions on this topic because I find that while playing the game, I hardly ever ever ever have Selphie in my party due to how weak she seems no matter how much level her up.
Not to mention I totally dislike her happy, cheerful, jumping attitude when compared to the rest in the game. At least Zell had some anger issues that made him kind of fit in.
Anyways, if she hadn't been in the game, would it have been better, worse, or doesn't really matter?

I don't think anyone would care if she wasn't there.... But, if she wasn't... I wouldn't have any of that awesome doujin.
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.

It doesn't really matter. I don't really have a problem with her being there, nor could I care less if she wasn't. To me, she was just there. I leveled up all my characters, so she was pretty strong, but weaker compared to the rest of the characters.
She did kinda annoy me a few times in the game though. =/ But it's not enough where I'm like, "Die Selphy!"

She wasn't that bad a character. Her limit breaks were what helped me out the most in boss battles. I liked her attitude. It's not like I want everyone to be emo now, do I?

Agreed, you need a few cheery characters, the ones that give FF a bit of humour, and her limits can be of great help in emergencies, you don't need a bunch of miserable people in the party to make a good FF, otherwise the chances are that this site would only have members of one personality instead of variety.
Also, yeah i like Selphie, and she does, along with Zell, give FF8 that bit of humour, i always put her in my party for her limit, and to see what she'll say in a serious situation.

I loved Selphie, she was like the groups pick-me-up, and I always liked using her. She did get a bit annoying in some parts where it had to be hard to not wanna smack her upside the head.

She pisses me off...as for the whole "need humor" thing, Zell does plenty of that(HE'S AWESOME!), especially when he fights with Seifer on the exams on disk 1...as for selphie, she could scream bloody murder while being tortured and i wouldn't bat an eyelash....

Heh, well it's good to see all your opinons.
I will admit that she did give game variety, and kept them pretty uplifted. But the whole running around "Join the Balamb Festival Team!!!!! WOOOHOO!" Thing was just irritating.
