Why Zack Fair Is Unique Among Final Fantasy Protagonists

Final Fantasy protagonists always seem to fall into the same categories, but Zack Fair is truly unique among them. Here's why he stands out.

Immagaiden478d ago

“The Final Fantasy series is well known for its very specific brand of protagonists. They usually fall into one of three categories: brooding loners, secretly significant newcomers, and deuteragonists masquerading as the protagonists.”

While Zack is unique, I’d never go so far as to say all other Final Fantasy protags are cut from only three cloths

Unique in he road the special bus. I couldn’t believe how cartoony and over-the-top he was. Like, I get his whole “gung-ho get things done and be the best outlook”, but he was so comical. I personally think it’s his voice actor to blame as I heard the original PSP voice actor and he was a bit more grounded in his performance.

I hope to god they tone him down in Rebirth. I can’t tell you the amount of cringe I went through listening to him and mostly everyone in the game open their mouth. Sephiroth, Tseng, and Cissnei were the only characters I thought were great. I think it’d be awesome if Cissnei showed up in Rebirth.

Uniquely his new voice is notable worse...

Is it a troll comparison? A PSP game vs PS5?

RaidenBlack70d ago

How well the crisis core still stacks up to the next gen Remake ~ that's the point of the remake
And as Digital Foundry pointed out after playing the demo, the Rebirth has flaws and is not much an upgrade from Integrade and still has texture problems

RaidenBlack70d ago

* that's the point of the comparison

Babadook770d ago (Edited 70d ago )

Remake had the same type of texture flaws (rare ones at that) as this game and I disagree with DF in both cases. Rebirth is easily the best example of RPG graphics in 2024 just like Remake was in 2020.

Snookies1270d ago

Rebirth not looking much better than Integrade is perfectly acceptable. Considering it's now open world where the Remake was completely linear. Remake still looks amazing to this day, and Rebirth looks even better.

They did do an amazing job on Reunion though. Never thought I'd see the day we'd get a return of Crisis Core, lol.

fsfsxii70d ago

Digital foundry always nitpicks ps5 games, but will look the other way when it comes to literally anything nintendo. They could put out a 240p game and DF would still praise it.

it's Crisis Core Reunion on PS5. I don't think anyone is expecting the graphics to be compared, but the design and to compare the same scenes between the two games.

Knightofelemia70d ago

A cleaned up PSP version vs a game built for the PS5 really? I can see the Tomb Raider trilogy remaster vs the PS1 versions. But using this is like night and day.

northpaws70d ago

Of course rebirth looks much better... but I am surprised how good crisis core reunion looks too, I have never played that one.

RaidenBlack70d ago

Thats the point of the comparison

Soy70d ago

IMO shows how great of a job they did with Crisis Core to bring it up to the Remake's standards/style.

MeteorPanda69d ago (Edited 69d ago )

I really enjoyed Crisis core remaster - the only thing l hated was the easy to miss side quests. like legit if you didnt run out and talk to a woman on your first HQ visit you missed on the optional final boss cause no 100%. like cmon. let us replay chapters to get the content.

Which is why lm glad they took that feedback and confirmed that nothings missable or timelocked in rebirth.
