Personal Opinion

SPOILERS! READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!

Everyone(female) I know who've played the game said that they liked Squall better in the beginning than afterwards.
Either they are joulous that Rinoa got Squall or maybe they prefer cold, blank surface than vurnerable heart. ^___^;
Maybe with the same reason why people like Vincent or Sephiroth(FF7) MORE than Cloud, the main character of FF 7 who swoons over Tifa. (LOL)
Well, If that's the case, I wonder how many people remained to be Squall's fan upon completing the game. Maybe none.
The fact is, I was also a little bit taken aback by the sudden change Squall had undergone during the second CD. He hadn't cared when Rinoa's very life was in danger. He simply didn't think about her that much. Or maybe he did, but hadn't expressed it. Either way, he didn't give a <CENSORED. What do you think I said there? ^__^;>about what goes about her whatsoever.
He was indifferent to her effort to be close to him and chose to either snap at her or insult her. But what's this? He changes his attitude towards her as soon as she faints.
I felt all mushy when Cloud, ehem, no, Squall(Darn, I am forever getting confused between the names!) kneeled in front of Rinoa's side and told her stuff that I'd never imagined he'd utter. But my friends only found it dumbfounding. Plus, annoying.
it's understandable that they would be like that. Afterall, Squall wasn't Mr.Nice in the beginning. I was a bit confused too.
But after playing the game the second time, I found out that it wasn't just a sudden change that happened in his heart. As soon as Rinoa collapsed, Squall was being haunted by guilt, regret and a realization that he hadn't noticed but things which were always in the bottom of his heart.
And you'll know that Squall's not normally like that when he was young. Well, he was quiet and shy but certainly, he had a warm heart.
He was considered a brat cuz he didn't open up his heart.
You could say he was a lonely kid who had been betrayed a number of times and was afraid to feel like that again.
What did he choose?
He chose to close down his heart and never to open them.
Nothing's more confusing than a person's heart. Mind.
So, if anyone out there hated Squall cuz of his personality change, I wanna say DON'T. If you still like Squall and are wondering what the heck I am talking about, ^__^ I wanna say I am sorry for rambling. Ho Ho. I bet most of female webmaster likes to do that and I ain't no exception.
So, please, give him a break. It hurts me to see so many ppl started to dislike Squall as soon as Rinoa got together with him. It's true the rest of the character got neglected afterwards but they all came in the ending, didn't they? Unlike FF 7.
On my side, I'll don't think I'll ever hate him or be jeolous of Rinoa.
I also don't think he's gonna be forgotten.
Cus he's alive in my page.
Right now, right here. Always. :)
Or at least, if Angelfire let me keep this site for a long time. I'd better watch out. Ho Ho.
