Final Fantasy VI/Tear Jerker: Difference between revisions

Line 9:

* The entire game is pretty much a succession of tear jerkers. {{spoiler|Celes' attempted suicide if Cid dies}} and the cutscene after getting the Phoenix magicite are particularly powerful.

** The scene described in your spoiler sets up a [[Heartwarming Moments (Sugar Wiki)|Heartwarming Moments]] when {{spoiler|Celes survives and discovers Locke's bandanna}}, setting off the rest of the game's chain of events.

* After being completely blindsided by the [[Wham Episode|Wham Level]] in ''[[Final Fantasy VI (Video Game)|Final Fantasy VI]]'', [[Eric DVH|this editor]] was absolutely crushed by the tableau of {{spoiler|Celes and a dying Cid stranded on an island in the [[The End of the World As We Know It|World of Ruin]]. Left with nothing to do but pointlessly cling to life catching fish on a monster-infested piece of rock which might be all that remained of the world}}, being confronted with an offer to commit suicide truly seemed like the only fitting end to the game.

* After being completely blindsided by the [[Wham! Episode|Wham Level]] in ''[[Final Fantasy VI (Video Game)|Final Fantasy VI]]'', [[Eric DVH|this editor]] was absolutely crushed by the tableau of {{spoiler|Celes and a dying Cid stranded on an island in the [[The End of the World As We Know It|World of Ruin]]. Left with nothing to do but pointlessly cling to life catching fish on a monster-infested piece of rock which might be all that remained of the world}}, being confronted with an offer to commit suicide truly seemed like the only fitting end to the game.

** For a double whammy, those who cried during that scene end up feeling the grief all over again when they learn {{spoiler|it's possible to save Cid's life, if you catch good fish for him}}. If that scene isn't enough, knowing that it literally is ''all your fault'' makes it ten times worse.

** The most heartbreaking part of Celes trying to kill herself is that ''she's crying when she throws herself off the cliff.''
