Restricted Cast, who would you pick?
12-13-2020, 09:33 PM
When I posted the thread, I was thinking Terra, Locke, Celes, and Sabin. I'm glad that people are coming up with other stuff, though, especially what MysticLord suggested. I'm picturing that as a sort of homage to FF1, where you can pick four generic characters from a cast of six and work your way around the world trying to prevent the second War of the Magi. You'd fail, of course, but it would be a really interesting take on the game.
As for Terra and Locke being mandatory for the game... I wonder.
If the opening Narshe attack were completely cutscene, then you could skip Terra as a player completely (remove those fights as they march in, just use flashes and make the Narshian guards blink out). Then Locke would be your first playable character and Terra becomes more of an NPC, perhaps becoming an Esper option after Zozo.
Alternatively, perhaps LOCKE is an NPC and you use three sets of generic moogles to defend Terra... then the Moonlighter escorts her to Figaro but without being a combatant. That would require reworking the Figaro occupation to be from Celes's perspective, though, if the scenario split were preserved.
Very very happy with how this discussion has gone. Excited to read more.
