The two I'm gonna play with are gonna be Jecht and Squall.Why?If you look at all the main protagonists you'll know why. And I still don't get why Ultimecia just junctions Grieve instead of going to her final form.
Because frankly its unsexy, overlarge, and looks like it'd be akward as hell.
The fact that they choose to give Cloud of Darkness legs (Very nice ones at that), even in her Ex-Mode, proves that they're aware the necesity for eyecandy and functionality.
Ultimecia Extreme is just not an ideal candidate. Why the hell do you want it?
Well...if you flip Ultimecia Extreme upside down she'd be sexy in a kinda creepy way(sorry I was in the generals forum and typing silly things), but seriously seeing her junction herself onto Griever is just kinda meh to me, ya know? She doesn't even need to be overlarge and I don't think it'll be awkward. Plus it is her final form, ya know? I don't suppose in her Griever form, she gets naked and have Griever only covering her privates does it?Serious question here.
If you want it seriously, its more to do with practical programing.
So far, all of the Exmodes have been pretty much just costume alterations. At the very least, they're fully humanoid and retain their original movements. Jecht ooks more human then not in his Final Aeon form, and Onion Knight's Ninja/Sage outfits are merely outfits. Zidane has a full costume change as well, but his physical form is still the same. People like Firion,Tidus don't costume change at all, but merely glow and change weapon forms. Dark Cloud doesn't change at all, except that she's green.
I think they wanted to keep Ultimecia in the same model type, for the sake of keeping thins uniform, and easy to deal with. Using Extreme would require a totaly different model from what she has right now. Their ideas are to parralel herself and Squall, as her Exmode is a Spell Spam version of Renzokuken.
I'll side with you though if Ex-Death, Kefka, and Sephiroth end up taking on their Extreme forms, since then it WOULD be hypocritical to completely change their outfits.
As a last argument, Greiver IS an important storyline aspect. At least, it has more reference then the WTF last bit of boss form that Ultimecia is.
Yeah, I noticed her Ex-mode is sort of like Squall's too. So much for originality, huh? As for Griever, maybe I just don't like lions that much?
