FAQs

I went ahead and kept Arc jumping down from Zozo, for instance, because it just seems like a childish thing to do. So I let that ride. His Weak pose might be based on Gau's, I'm not sure. It probably is similar in the sense that they are both child sprites.

As for the other characters, I'd like to think Serin is more aloof and immature at times than Edgar is. I remember a lot of dialog work going into him. Again, I think it's mostly because of how the events are still played out the same that makes these characters seem so similar, in some cases at least. Like Serin still being the King as Edgar was. But in his case, I'd say while Edgar was like a perverted british noble king, Serin is more of a ragtag playboy and irresponsible leader.

My half-assed breakdown of the others:

Aurora, very similar. Some dialog was changed for her, some not. I'd say they are very similar, but Aurora is a little less...juvenile? And less scared, timid.

Tifa, same personality as Celes. I couldn't really find a good way to make her less like Celes and more like Tifa. The events didn't need a big change for her imo.

Avalon is a vastly different character than Cyan is, imo. For the obvious reason of not talking Old English, and being younger.

Otis...much different obviously.

Ronan...much too similar.

Cloud, took a lot of work, and I hear still seems like Locke at times, but I don't see it really. I did about all one could do to change him from Locke to Cloud, so I dunno.

Eiko, same as Relm but a little more attitude even. They are very similar characters so it was more of a simple swap. I have not played IX enough to know about her, so yes I kept the majority of Relm in-tact.

Fusoya, Had to keep a lot of Strago in there, but hopefully he seems less goofy and more ancient.

Oboro, since he has much more dialog it was easier to flesh out his character. He should seem like a different personality from Shadow, but yes they are both badass ninja dudes with dogs. I'd compare Oboro more to Shadow's Clyde personality, which was different and less emotionless than his Shadow counterpart.

Arc, shouldn't resemble Gau at all, except for the actions at times, yes.

Golbez, much different from Gogo lol.

Shadow, doesn't say anything and I changed up his events so he shouldn't seem like Umaro the squatch, aside from in-battle when he tosses an ally at a monster...
