The amount of content this game has is incredible, and they really captured that sense of dread and despair very well. I always endure the first linear part because of how amazing the second part feels. It just goes to show you how everything went wrong when people dislike this part because there is no more "character development", despise the massive amount of things and freedom you get. It is like an open world with actual content. You can even find a secret dungeon with two espers will traveling underground through the desert inside the castle. FF6 is overkill, maybe FF7 has better production values and movies and their characters feel more alive, but as far as gameplay and adventure and actual exploration goes, nothing matches FF6 post apocalypses.

No, I outlined it very specifically and thoroughly here >>1697995 by explaining the arcs that both Celes and Cyan go through, how they LEARN and PROGRESS as characters, and although I really don't want to waste more time arguing with someone who very obviously has no idea what they are talking about, I'm going to go over this one more time, in the simplest way possible so that you can get it through your thick skull.

Celes:
>Begins as a prideful, honorable general who we learn has served the empire her whole life as a Runic Knight
>As she continues going through her story we see her change. During the Opera scene her actions and dialogue infer that she begins to realize that she can be more that just a soldier, as she claims that she "isn't some opera floozy" yet performs beautifully and is complimented by the other characters
>Her relationship with Locke, scenes of which are scattered throughout the game, becomes apparent and grows, even if in the beginning Celes brushes off any notions of love or affection
>During these scenes we see Celes lighten up, becoming less prideful and begins to open up to the rest of the party, namely Locke
>When she attempts to kill herself, but is saved when she sees Locke's bandana and she professes her drive to live and desire to see Locke and the others again through inner monologue, we know that she has finally opened up and admitted to her true feelings. This is also backed up by hers and Locke's themes coming together at the end of the game.

You see, she went from a prideful general who only knows what her duty dictates, to someone who is open with her feelings and knows she can be whatever she wants to be. If you paid attention than it's simple. Just because the Square wasn't able to fit in as much character development as you would have liked doesn't mean that there isn't any, you just have to care enough to see it.
