    Tidus's whininess was what would happen if someone from a modern setting with zero combat/survival training into a harsh fantasy setting. Tidus was us... D:

    That's what made it so great. The game didn't have to be silly and go out of its way to explain Spira to the player...because the main character was a total noob. I never understand why people described Tidus as "whiny" when the stuff that happened to him happened to him...and he rolled with the punches like a champ...AND takes the hot girl in the process.

    Contrast with FF13, where the game makes nnnnooooooooooooo attempt to ensure the player knows what the hell its talking about...or ever makes us actually care. By the time i got to the end of FFXIII, I honestly just didn't care. "Save cocoon? Oh, you mean the a-holes that's literally been trying to kill me the whole game??"
