Alexander Appreciation Thread

Can we all agree that XIV is the best Alexander's ever looked when you compare him to his other incarnations in the series?

Just look at this towering badass. Let's talk about how great he is.

And then you go inside

Going to have to go with a big no. The steampunk wanna-be abomination is a terrible adaption.

This is Alexander:

...no. The concept art looks amazing, but in game he looks.. eh. FF9 Alexander is my personal favourite.

It fits with Alexander's Holy element within the FFIX universe. Also in the cutscene, it uses it's wings for it's Holy Judgement attack, as well as defending the castle, so yeah, I think it suits ol Alex.

His FF9 incarnation had wings. He only played a minor part in FF9 but it is also my favourite version of him.

The contrast between him being a machine and yet having angel wings is kind of like....poetry.
