But, that's pretty much what Final Fantasy is. Standing up for what's right by defeating the corrupt power structure is pretty much what every game in the series is about.



Gotta say, it felt weird working for the stormtroopers that one time.

Yes but usually it doesn't end up with Alphinaud creating yet another republic and adding it to his growing list. The typical aftermath of overthrowing evil regimes in Final Fantasy games is usually one of the heroes ending up on the throne, or the dissolution of the state in its entirety.

Historically, such stories are oftentimes more tolerable than the present trends here.

Okay, then dissolve the shogunate.

Just saying it's weird that we have a government so corrupt that half of its own police force were either defectors or planning a secret coup, and it's just treated like an "Oh well".
