My friend told me before hand that Squall dies in this game and i was surprised to see Squall standing at the end beside Rinoah because Everything just dissappeared on the screen.
:P
 
No, your friend must've tricked you. :P

I wasn't surprised at all, I knew the game was going to have a happy ending (as FF's do anyway :monster:) so it really wasn't that much of a shocker to see Rinoa and Squall on the deck like that.

To be honest though, I had some doubt when Squall was in that...'dream-land', I thought he had died for a while. xD
 
Uh, I knew he lived. Remember when the Balamb Garden came to rescue Rinoa and Squall on that field? Rinoa had a happy look on her face as she gazed down on Squall...a look of hope that suggested he's still alive.


 
I think I heard he died as well and was really hoping he didn't! I don't think I was really surprised to see him standing with Rinoa at the end because it's rare to see a game ending tragically like that lol. I kind of guessed he was going to be alright from watching the scene where Rinoa runs over to him.
 
I seen it that Squall had died and when Rinoa picked him up in her arms and the heavens opened up was her desent into madness and then the ednignw as her perfect ending. Everyone aboard the Garden happy and she is with Squall, happy.
 
somebody must have been trying to trick you guys ^_^

i wasn't too surprised, i was more convinced that zidane was dead, then squall.
 
Was I surprised? No.

Actually, I thought Squall would end up lost in time... But then I figured he was alright when Rinoa smiled at him in the field and the fact that everyone was partying on garden in the end FMV.
 
I thought he was still alive and all, I just thought that when the camcorder runs out of batteries as you see Rinoa beckoning to someone outside (and the remaining credits roll before the final scene) that the game had cruelly decided to leave the outcome open-ended and weren't going to show you what happened next XD - I was wrong of course but it could have worked either way.

It's probably worth it though just to see Squall smiling at the end.
 
I personally found the ending to be too peppy. (Call me a pessimist) I like to think of it as if Squall had actually died, and Rinoa went mad, as SaphireStar said. Leading of course...to the Rinoa/Ultimecia loophole theory. =]
 
Seriously. Your friend is mean.

All Final Fantasies end up being happy. :)

Except for Final Fantasy 10.:P
Oh and I thought for a minute or two that Squall died. I thought that the party was in his honour. But I was wrong in the end. And I was glad I was wrong. One of the best endings I've seen in video games.:inlove:

NOOO! You had to say that FFX! :P

I actually thought that Squall had slipped into a coma that he wouldn't wake up from ever. I guess that the look on Rinoa's face revealed all when she knew that there was hope.
 
i almost thought he died for like 2 seconds,but then i realized that they wouldn't do that to the main character, and just hoped for the best, then when i saw Rinoa smile, I knew he was okay :D
 
Well, my first thought was that Squall did die, and I believed that for a while. You can think what you want, thats why they ended it like that. Though Rinoa could just as easily been smiling at Seifer, due to Squall dieing and them hooking back up again. (Who says shed turn evil because some half boyfriend dies, shes got other options)

But since Ive seen Elfin lied, which ends basically the same, I figured they wouldnt go through the trouble if the character actually had died. Though it makes for a better ending.
 
No!Squall never die

he dont die he only lose consciousness
if he die Rinoa dont react with only one smile
 
Cant say i was surprised really cause altho Rinoa looked pretty sad when she found him lay there she then changed her expression as though he had woken up. Don't think i'd be looking that pleased if the love of my life was dying in my arms. I have to say tho, when the credits were rolling i did hold my breath, thought they may have got stuck in limbo then i was relieved when i saw them on the balcony!!
 
I see no reason why he should die, and everyone else live, cause they were all together in there, so no i didn't think he died.
 
At first I thought Squall was long gone, dead. When Balamb Garden flew over Rinoa I thought it was just gonna pick her up and leave. Then at the end of the credit movie, she does her little one finger thing and then I knew he was alive. Sure enough you see him alive in the next scene which is the last scene in the whole game.
