Um, there's quite a bit of stuff that happens between the first event and you going after the antagonist. I'd say, if you have any appreciation for the characters, you'd go out to find them as each character you find, you learn much more about that characters story and personality. Terra in Mobliz, Strago's old enemies, Relm's Painting, Shadow's Past, Cyan's Past, and let's not even go to Locke's relationship with Rachel. It's pretty deep even after the midway point. You find their motivation and as you progress, you learn to hate Kefka more and more constantly.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

In a straight through game, Final Fantasy Tactics was pretty short. If you don't do any of the side quests and such, the thing can be beat in 1 day if you know what you're doing. It's a fun game though.


The Early Tony Hawk Pro Skater games were extremely short too. A playthrough once took about 30 minutes. The problem was doing it with everybody.

Of course, this isn't a thread of the most random endings so my post stops here, but there are a lot of candidates for most random endings.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
