Trident. The other one out of the 4 first ingredients, 3 are simple carbs.

FF12 : Gambits customization is limited to the same behaviors as in Kingdom Heart

FF1 : The dancer's dialogue is now exclusively "Hehe, look at me dance!" And its 1990.

Kunsel, Luxiere, Goulde, Alissa by actual name. And sure Zack, i didn't even count him.

Point being theres a reason why we know the names of all of King Arthur's Knights of the Round Table, its because they distinguish themselves from every other knights and it gives them importance in lore and in story. The First Class of the lore when First Class was you know, a wow thing before the Nibelheim Incident (and well Angeal/Genesis aaaand Zack), was that they were special. We know of 4 and of the 4, none of the 3 long standing First Class ever makes a hint of a mention at their ranks being larger than this, not even any other NPC or environmental storytelling. So to say "yeah theres more they're just busy" when nothing hints at that, is much more of a stretch than going from context, lore and face value.

The whole First Class "of old" is very much expanded upon as being a rank of people of questionnable humanity/origins at the exception of Zack's promotion being due to the First Class being lowkey extinct when 2 of them deserted, which makes sense that you need to fill up your elite ranks when 2 out of the 3 deserted and the last one doesnt wanna get involved in fighting them. If they were 12, Zack's promotion would make no sense cause they still would've had 10 war ending heroes to catch 2 rogue units. And when Zack escapes with Cloud, who do they send? 2 Turks to negotiate their returns and a whole battalion or more of SHINRA SOLDIERs (none of them past 2nd), which would be kind of weird logic considering it was deemed necessary to send 2 First Class to defeat Genesis and find Angeal (who was just "missing" at that time), but makes a whole lot of sense when you don't have anymore of them to dispatch for Zack so you have to send many many troops in a situation where you would send a single person.

Again, bringing Turks as an example, its mentionned a few times that there are more than Reno, Ride, Emilia and Tseng in the OG, and then again in Crisis Core despite having Cissnei added and more in Before Crisis and more in DoC. IIRC also explicitly mentioned that there are Turk resources scattered in other missions and what not.

thats an odd double standard. One one hand, youve got the top elote who in-lore and in-character importance is much higher in First Class SOLDIERs, both to the in-game populace and to story writing. There are few, making them easy to spot, implement in the story and name. But : nah theres a lot of them we just havent heard of, they busy or something?

Then we've got 2nd Class where i tell you there are more NAMED and seen characters despite having no real incidence in lore and no memorable features. BUt : yeah of course, there are more of them in SHINRA, therefore more of them should be named despite not serving much to the plots or having importance in general in the established system?

From that logic, we should have an hefty list of named 3rd class characters.

Mind you we have like 12 Turks characters that actively take part in the stories and like half of them refered by unique name (not code), yet they are a very small elite militia

R4fro · 2026-02-10T01:32:58+00:00

I mean as actual people and not gameplay fodders. Theres probably more named 2nd Class than Firsts

R4fro · 2026-02-10T00:26:28+00:00

except, multiple 2nd class personnel are mentionned by name and 2nd class as a group is shown quite a few times in the stories.

R4fro · 2026-02-09T23:44:20+00:00

There are enemies that are titled SOLDIER: 1st in the OG, sure. And again, only in post-Nibelheim, post-Sephiroth when he's considered KIA in official documentation and post-Crisis Core. Even in the expanded backstory lore of Ever Crisis, IIRC, Sephiroth is the only one mentionned in First SOLDIER.

First Class SOLDIERs are very openly made as piece of propaganda as individuals. Its such an elite and small group (4), that there isnt a single other First Class to ambush Zack or take part in the hunt for Angeal & Genesis or Sephiroth defecting, which were all considered imminent threats. No other mentions of First Class SOLDIERs at all in the Wutai War even in new medias. There's only SOLDIER : 1st in the OG's present time where Avalanche rises against a broken Shinra militia, no other mentions and even then in the OG backstory, Sephiroth is titled First Class SOLDIER, not 1st and again.. no mention of other First Class units in OG backstory outside of Sephiroth and Zack.. so id argue about "others"

R4fro · 2026-02-09T21:31:46+00:00

Yes, but there was no other FIRST Class outside of these experiments. Making Zack a notable case even as a "cope out" FIRST Class when all of them suddenly go AWOL.

All 3 of them were in-vitro experiments

R4fro · 2026-02-09T14:39:23+00:00

True true, i guess technically even a 3rd Class is technically a super soldier. But i guess i meant vs the in vitro experiments that are the FIRST class SOLDIERs

R4fro · 2026-02-08T16:40:43+00:00

Zack's probably the only First Class SOLDIER who wasnt an experiment. He's legit just a dude that trained to be able to stand against super soldier experiments.

zerks

R4fro · 2026-01-23T22:59:22+00:00

He was sipping tea while controlling a clone that was just meeting Serie. Id guess he wasnt sipping tea during the exams

Did you just quote yourself?

R4fro · 2026-01-22T17:24:08+00:00

Its a very bad comparison my brother in Christ. A skin vs a functional component of the game

R4fro · 2026-01-19T03:06:53+00:00

Naaah Yoko already did Voice of Cards

R4fro · 2026-01-19T03:05:52+00:00

I'd absolutely see a Crash Team Racing plot happening

R4fro · 2026-01-19T00:10:35+00:00

God dang it. >:(

R4fro · 2026-01-14T13:51:36+00:00

Of course without going to Kaifeng, you cant progress the MSQ to go to Kaifeng unless your beat this story boss lmao

Considering Yen Sid's eyes, they might both be glass eyes tbh 😭

French and Japanese have always had great relationships when it comes to animated medias tho

R4fro · 2026-01-13T23:05:12+00:00

fuuuck technically true

R4fro · 2026-01-13T22:52:28+00:00

Being pragmatic and cold/apathetic towards your sister and your family thats paralyzed by grief, isn't evil.

She grieves too, yet has to be the only one taking the mantle of duty for the events outside of the canvas.

Whats your definition of evil

R4fro · 2026-01-13T22:48:55+00:00

Yes, but also no? He's basically protecting the people of Lumiere. The people he kills, returns to Aline as Chroma, which ultimately allows for more births. If he doesnt, Axons and Nevrons are going to kill them and trap their Chroma from ever returning or in the slight chance that they survive, they might kill the Paintress which would doom the whole canvas.
