Who are these vote-stuffing squareheads? Kefka went up to like 415 all of a sudden. :-(

It was ridiculous how people gave up on Vercetti in the first hour of the match. So Kefka did a little better than we thought early on.

Exactly. People were comparing Knuckles and Diablo to Vercetti. This board happens to hate GTA, while a good amount of people like Knuckles and Diablo. Kefka doing better early against Vercetti then the other two is no real surprise.

There's your problem. You're comparing her to the wrong character.

Wow...didn't expect to pop on and find it this tight still. It does make sense that we could end up seeing a good deal of stuffing on both sides of the fence today...though it's hard to imagine people caring that much about Vercetti.

I know FFVI>>>(etc.) FFIV, however shared leads SUCK, and when Terra gets pounded, it will be reenforced. You never get to associate with her. Kefka is easily the most developed character in that game, and the one probably most focused on. So it would make sense that he would be the strongest character. Terra never had a chance, and could break 40%, but I do not think she will.

I don't care what anyone on this board (or any of the boards here) says, Terra is the main character of Final Fantasy VI. She's with you from the very beginning,Spoiler?

with you at the end, and the story revolves around her. It's her story.

Kefka is easily the most developed character in that game, and the one probably most focused on.

See, to me it felt as if Locke was the main character for the beginning of the game, and then it fluctuated from there on in. I would never be able to definitively select one character as a main, though it would definitely be between Cyan, Locke, Celes, Terra and the Figaros. The others are truly sidekicks, as some of them are not even required recruits.

Revenge is a dish best served cold. ~Old Klingon Proverb

I'm going throw out a random question. How much stronger is Tifa than Yuna or Rikku? I assume she'd probably beat both of them kind of easy if she faced them. I don't recall it ever happening though.

You also have to take into account that the picture used for Terra is going to most likely be more recognizable than Lettuce Kefka, FMV Kekfa, or Evil Devil Robot Cecil. Look at what Kefka did to Wesker with just his angel sprite.
