How come I never see Paine mentioned in vidyagirl threads... or anywhere, really?

How come I never see Paine mentioned in vidyagirl threads... or anywhere, really?

Am I the only one who thinks she is cute?

Probably because a good majority of people didn't play FF X-2, and also the fact that kids don't know who the fuck she is since she wasn't as iconic and well known as Tifa or someone else from a more popular entry to the series.

I got a thing for goth chicks, Lulu is my pick but Paine would be my next pick.

best payne coming through

Because she's poor man's Lulu. Don't get me wrong. She is cute, you aren't alone there. But she has no personality. I'm not denying that she had some character growth, but honestly, she was always 'just there'.

>Because she's poor man's Lulu.

No she's not, aside from in terms of design to extent. Her character is entirely different, she has subdued emotions for different reasons, and she doesn't have the same dynamic in her party as Lulu did.

she's my waifu

She's cute.

Even better that you can dress her up in outfits way sluttier, that you know she would hate.

Because she's in X-2, which is often overlooked. A shame really since the gameplay is one of the most fun in the series.

I liked her

I prefer Lulu

Most people didn't like her, I didn't neither because I saw her as a budget Lulu

Pretty sure that's a guy.

Girls like her turn me on so much. I miss the goth/bsdm scene.

I don't know how anyone can think she's cute. She's way too manly and her personality is bottom tier.

i don't remember ever finishing FFX2, i probably just stopped playing because of the monster encounter literally every 2 steps or something

Going for lu-light when you could be hitting up the multilingual slutty engineer girl.

You have a fair point. But yeah, no offense to your waifu. She's just boring. She can't make up her mind whether or not she cares or is indifferent. Again, she's just...there. I'd say wallflower, but that doesn't do her justice. She reminds me of a female Squall, and honestly, I got enough of THAT the first time.

Ugly bulldyke

It's a shame that so many of the costumes look ugly on her, because I think she's really cute too.

>She can't make up her mind whether or not she cares or is indifferent.

She just doesn't want to get emotionally invested because she doesn't want to lose everyone important to her again.

Which admittedly, IS Squall's motivation for his aloofness as well.

She was a very strong charecter and was a fun addition to the Gullwings. Lulu wouldn't really fut with the whole Wakka thing they threw in your face. I would add though Tidus being able to express interest in Lulu at Guadoland was shit since it never became anything.

Paine needs more sfm porn.

Yeah, I can see that. But I feel like Squall got past it. Evolved, I guess I'd say. I didn't get that from Paine.

You didn't do her sidequest. Or pay attention to the final dungeon.

Possibly. It has been some time since I played this game seriously.

>I don't know how anyone can think she's cute.

You haven't met girls like her man. They're freaks, they're down for anything. Also I think she's cute.

Rikku's character in X-2 feels a bit ruined from how she was in X. At least Yuna has the excuse of this is the first time she's ever tried loosening up.

Her default is all you need, but I thought Dark Knight looked fine on her. Which is good because it's her best class.

She needs more porn period. She had an image set from Azakuze Wind and that's about it in terms of quality art.

The Den of Woe and collecting all the Crimson Spheres is her charecter arc. Also theres that one post Ffx2 game where the 3 climb a tower and Paine wanted them together again because she missed them shows a lot of progression from when you first meet her.

Did the HD version fix that issue where if you picked New Yevon in your first playthrough, you could never 100% the game even with multiple playthroughs, only 99%?

That wasn't a bug. You just don't go to that part of the map on that route. So no 100% The 100 % has an ultra specific guide that in the past you really had to have the stategy guide and follow the path in the back of the book.

>liking not lulu
She should have never existed imagine just how much bigger FFX-2 would've been if Paine was replaced with Lulu.

I don't know why this pisses me off so much. Maybe because she doesn't really work as a Lulu clone because she's too different from Lulu.

The comparison to Lulu pisses me off I mean. Not it not working.

>How come I never see Paine mentioned in vidyagirl threads... or anywhere, really?
FFX-2 was garbaggio, and most people can find better FF girls to mention. In fact, my two least favorite FF games(12 and 13) had better girls.

She wears dark clothing and isn't as nice so people just assume they are the same.

>payne is a lulu clone
nah not really. Lulu is far more of an adult. Payne always felt younger. outside of aesthetic style and antisocial behavior, they aren't that similar.

Payne is best final fantasy though.

Entirely different kind of dark clothes though, and Lulu was more of annoyance and being the big sister while Paine was more about being aloof.

Payne is an Auron clone. The similarities to Lulu stop at the clothing.

>Payne

Stop that, it's not even the same character. It's Paine.

Panus

>Payne is an Auron clone.
I'm surprised no one ever picks up on that. Especially considering she also acts like Auron in her need to snark at situations.

Too bad she went for rastafarian dick

And her swords of choice too. I honestly spent the first 10 hours thinking they were going to make her his daughter.

It's a shame Paine and Rikku have such good chemistry together. It just makes Yuna more bland than she already is.

But hey, at least the game acknowledges that when they flat out call Yuna a doormat.

Wouldn't make sense timeline-wise. Auron died before he got married, hell he was discraced because he turned down a marriage proposal.

You don't need to be married to have a child.

true but Spira lived in a very traditionalist society.

That also really isn't enough to base this on.

shit I thought that too.

I wouldn't call X-2 Yuna bland, that's X's Yuna. X-2 Yuna is stuck in this spot where she's still burdened by a life of doing what she was supposed to, and is suddenly given freedom for the first time in her life. She doesn't know how to really live like a normal person.

But yeah, she is still a doormat, as Paine said, "hero, Summoner, doormat"
