1st time playing this. 4 hours in why is this so angsty?

Squall isn't angsty. Quistis constantly tries to make stupid jokes, Zell acts like a tremendous faggot, and Selphie is "lel so randumb". Squall is just a professional and doesn't have time for bullshit, which is why he leads a fucking SeeD squad at the age of 17.

anyone who says anything about Squall being a whiny emo is a retarded faggot who didn't actually play the game

The whole 4 hours in? If not Squall it's a party mate. Holy shit angst out of the ass!

>squall isn't angsty

holy shit nigger are you serious? he spends a vast majority of the game being a whiny shithead internally while pretending to not give a shit on the outside. that's exactly what angst is.

Why do people love this? VIII is bad

>>323104391
Yeah, except no.

Internally he doesn't give a shit either. It's always "Why is she talking to me?" or "I don't care"

>why is this so angsty?
Its a spiritual successor to FFVII with what Kitase wanted to do with the original game.

>angsty
I don't think you know what that word means. Either that, or you just did not play the game at all.

>annoyed by people talking for the sake of talking
>is 10/10 in looks and annoyed by all the bitches that want his dick
>if someone is staring at him expecting a response to some nonsense they said he just says 'whatever...' so they fuck off
literally the opposite of angst

All characters in FF games follow pretty standard Shounen archtypes. The problem with Squall is, the western translation was absolutely horrible. To the point that it changed his character.

Basically, in the Japanese game, Squall is comparable to Shikimaru. A passive guy who complains about things being a pain, but still cares about seeing things through and helping others. In the western translation, he's fucking Sasuke.

He has plenty of angst, but he's not angsty in the Crawling sense.
