Final Fantasy: Uncovering the Dark Side of Legendary Heroes

Final Fantasy, the beloved JRPG franchise with its captivating characters and epic storylines, has taken players on countless grand adventures. From battling hordes of dungeon monsters to facing off against god-like beings, the scope of the game’s narrative never fails to impress. But here’s a twist – the villains aren’t the only ones with a dark side. Some of the heroes in the series have committed their fair share of atrocities, albeit under unfortunate circumstances.

8. Cid Repeatedly Abusing His Wife (Final Fantasy 7)

Every Final Fantasy game has its own version of Cid, the skilled mechanic who aids in acquiring an airship. In Final Fantasy 7, however, Cid is far from a stand-up guy. After his dreams of going to space are shattered by Shinra, he becomes a bitter old man who verbally abuses his spouse while drowning his sorrows in alcohol. Yikes!

7. Terra Carrying Out the Will of the Gestahlian Empire (Final Fantasy 6)

Terra, often considered the main protagonist of Final Fantasy 6, isn’t exactly the saintly hero fans might expect. She actively aids the empire in their tyrannical reign, but there’s a catch! She’s under the influence of a slave crown created by the nefarious Kefka. Thankfully, she frees herself from this control and fights back against the empire.

6. Barret and AVALANCHE Carrying Out Acts of Terrorism (Final Fantasy 7)

Barret’s heart may be in the right place, fighting against Shinra’s tyranny, but his methods are questionable, to say the least. Gathering a group of eco-terrorists, he plans to blow up reactors and destroy structures, potentially causing collateral damage and innocent lives lost. Despite his heinous activities, he’s still seen as a good guy, though it’s hard to fathom why.

5. Noctis Pushing Prompto Off a Train (Final Fantasy 15)

Noctis, the somewhat immature protagonist of Final Fantasy 15, often comes across as a spoiled brat. During a harrowing train ride, he mistakenly pushes Prompto off the vehicle, thinking he’s the villainous Ardyn. Surprisingly, this incident turns out to be a blessing in disguise for Prompto, leading to important self-discoveries.

4. Cloud Gives the Black Materia to Sephiroth (Final Fantasy 7)

In Final Fantasy 10, Tidus serves as the clueless protagonist who gradually learns about the traditions and sacrifices of the world. Shockingly, the entire party, including Tidus, agrees to sacrifice their close friend, Yuna, in a desperate attempt to defeat the fearsome creature known as Sin. It’s hard to understand their willingness to let their friend die for their cause.

2. Cecil and Kain Destroying the Town of Mist (Final Fantasy 4)

Cecil and Kain, manipulated by a disguised Archfiend, carry out horrifying acts of violence against innocent people. Sent to the town of Mist with a sinister package, they unwittingly cause the death and destruction of Rydia’s hometown. Though they were deceived, the consequences of their actions should have raised suspicion.

1. Celes Serving the Empire for Quite Some Time (Final Fantasy 6)

Celes, a captivating character and a favorite among players, has an intriguing arc. However, before she questions the motives of Emperor Gestahl, she served as a general in the empire’s army, presumably committing serious atrocities. Although her redemption is commendable, it’s hard to overlook her involvement in the empire’s brutal actions.
