i was always more of seifer guy too fwiw

 

[Comrade Khan]

yeah kefka just an fucking sadistic psycho motherfucker its great. 0 redeemable qualities

 

[Barry Poppins]

If Sephiroth is the brooding sympathetic villain that everyone knows is the big bad, Kefka is the psychopathic side villain that actually attains godhood because he's the only one actually willing to do the morally unscrupulous to accomplish his goals.

 

[Barry Poppins]

Whatever Sephiroth does pales in complete comparison to Kefka literally poisoning a town's water supply just because he could and was determined to win at all costs.

 

[Barry Poppins]

Basically Kefka represents everything that Final Fantasy VI is trying to say, that even in the darkest circumstances, people will still rise to the occasion and pull the scraps back together to reform life. Kefka wins but once he actually attains godhood and destroys the world, he has nothing left to do, he's like a child that finally has everything he wanted and only now realizes that it's fucking boring.

 

[Barry Poppins]

He is the protagonists' literal darkest moment. Even in the face of a fucking God, they stand firm and rise to defeat him against all odds. It's actually kinda beautiful just how important Kefka is to Final Fantasy lore.

 

[Comrade Khan]

yeah the moment he splits the world is just so depressing too

 

[Barry Poppins]

It's amazing.

 

[Comrade Khan]

he's my favorite ff villain for sure. and thats not really putting down others either they all have cool shit about them. but kefka and Sabin are like my fave characters lol

 

[Barry Poppins]

FFVI honestly has a better-paced story and tighter characterization in my opinion.

 

[Barry Poppins]

Sabin's great.

 

[Barry Poppins]

My favorite though is Celes.

 

[Comrade Khan]

Celes is awesome

 

[Comrade Khan]

not a lot of bad characters in that game lol

 

[Barry Poppins]

She's so good and just great all-around, not to mention just kinda... pretty to look at.
