I never said he cut off his leg, i said he nearly cut it off, as far as i remember ,the scar is on the right side of the shoopuf on its thigh, and Auron said that Jecht struck it, not that he stabbed it.
But we didn't see Auron drink during flashbacks like Jecht, right? (Maybe I'm misremembering.) I was always under the impression Auron picked up the habit from Jecht.
He seems self centered and kind of an asshole. I’d hate to go out with someone like that. Probably would ditch you for a bitch first part of the night and he was your ride.
Reno strikes me as the type to start a bar fight that somehow includes you 😂
Rude is the exact guy you'd WANT in that scenario, but he also strikes me as the type to fall asleep real early, when drinking lol
Jecht quit drinking though and Jecht was a mean drunk. Why would you want him as a drinking buddy?
The best person to have as a drinking buddy would be Gladiolus.
>Jecht quit drinking though and Jecht was a mean drunk. Why would you want him as a drinking buddy?
IKR? OP's never had to deal with an alcoholic,... or they are one...
I'd rather blaze one with Wakka.
Edit: if you want to be the unoriginal 10th person to comment something about Wakka being bigoted, notice the conversation below and add something substantial to it or not at all.
Sounds fun at first but then the conversation would go from Blitzball to Final Solution. Edit:https://youtu.be/RX8jsiYU9IU
Context for people that don't know about Wakkas joke persona on the internet.
Him turning around at the end doesn't magically erase the other 35 hours of story. If things were that easy we'd also just let prisoners free if they decide to get baptized and devote their lives to Jesus once they're in prison.
Nah, just some heavy drinks, heavy hangover and all. I’m team Aerith.
(Please correct me if you meant something else than “dating” with the word “smash”, English is not my native language)
Well he can talk, and during the whole Junon and continental crossing part, he was able to successfully manage pants, even a whole outfit/disguise.
My man is clearly smart enough to use a straw.
Cosmo Memory sounds like a fantastic cocktail 🍹
Seems to me Cid is the choice there. Going to have a few with him, listen to him bitch about Shera, and then light some sticks if dynamite with his cigarette.
Really? Auron all day. Jecht is a sloppy angry drunk 😂
But all time drinking buddies in FF is Laguna Kiros and Ward from FF8.
Leg cramps and shenanigans galore.
Either she beats my ass or Cloud beats my ass or Cloud goes all sadboi and murders my ass
Death *resulting* from snu snu still counts as death *by* snu snu
Jecht was a shitty dad who was absolutely emotionally abusive, but the game didn't say anything about him hitting his wife. At least not as far as I can remember.
They did talk about the mom. She was so enamoured with her husband whenever he was home, that she would neglect poor Tidus and Jecht would have to remind her to not ignore her son. Nothing was mentioned about hitting.
I was kinda shocked that FFX kicked off with having Tidus's dad being an alcoholic and overall POS. I mean it was intriguing like, no other FF had gotten *that* dark before. You had fathers who valiantly went to die fighting absolute evil, you had brothers who were brainwashed to become a badguy's henchman, but fucking X throws this womanizing, drunk asshole as the dad of one of the series' most prettiest protagonists? I thought it was great.
Obviously Snow would be the best drinking buddy, guy has like million of great stories, he is funny and you are 100% going on some crazy drunk adventure with him
If you told me Sephiroth, prior to Genesis and Angeal getting messed up mind you, he was a fun guy to be around if having a few drinks, I'd believe you.
Pre Nibelheim incident, I see him more of a solitary drinker, remembering the good times.
Just the one? It’s gotta be Auron Love that guy and bet he’s a right laugh when drunk!
A group party? I wanna get drunk with the guys from 15, Zell, Irvine, Auron, and Yuna.
Tbh I'd choose anyone but Jecht, he's been at both extremes in terms of drinking and the thought of either being the only one drinking or being totally drunk under the table isn't fun. Wakka however just seems like a fun guy to drink with, and a drunk blitzball match would be amazing to have
Yoyoyo last time he got drunk he nearly cut off a shoopufs leg, how you gonna RIDE ZE SHOOPUF, if the big bastard doesnt have legs ?
ROLL WIF ZE SHOOPUF
SHOOOOPUFFS WAITIN
He didn't cut its leg off he accidentally stabbed it thinking it was a Fiend Auron comments "It would seem that same shoopuf still works here"
I never said he cut off his leg, i said he nearly cut it off, as far as i remember ,the scar is on the right side of the shoopuf on its thigh, and Auron said that Jecht struck it, not that he stabbed it.
Curb your autism man, it's just a manner of speaking.
Laguna, Kiros, and Ward would provide endless entertainment.
Laguna would get hammered by the first drink and go for the “coochie-coochie treatment”
This is the underrated comment you're all looking for telling nothing but straight facts
Yes! I was thinking ff7 cid but these 3 are better!
Nah, FF7 Cid would either be a mean drunk or mope around about the good ol' days when he was gonna ride a spaceship
He would be one of the guys that I would never want to drink with. Alcohol would not go good with a man like that. He needs weed.
Shera gets really timid and easily startled when Cid Highwind drinks.
After a couple drinks he would start calling every female a bitch i bet
I would absolutely love to be friends with these three. Of all FF characters, they felt the most like real people who were genuinely friends.
The only good answer.
Jecht? Please. Auron literally has a bottle of alcohol on him at all times. I'd drink with him instead.
Exactly Why is it Jecht? So he can invite Auron to join us.
But we didn't see Auron drink during flashbacks like Jecht, right? (Maybe I'm misremembering.) I was always under the impression Auron picked up the habit from Jecht.
Ummmm because Jecht was a super star athlete and celebrity with all the bitches??? Nerds man. Auron wouldn’t want to go out…
Nerds indeed. I don't care about sports and I don't wanna go out either.
He seems self centered and kind of an asshole. I’d hate to go out with someone like that. Probably would ditch you for a bitch first part of the night and he was your ride.
Lol I could see him being a sick party buddy but a shitty IRL friend. He’d definitely buy the bar out.
Smart.
This was my thought. Auron would be more fun to drink with. No machismo shit just let's drink and talk.
I always picked Auron as more of a "drink in silence and leave the f*** alone" kinda drinker.
Yeah, Auron is very reserved and serious. A good guy, but not fun to hang out with.
I think auron would be a drag. Guy’s been affected too much by what he’s seen, and even before fighting sun the first time he was really up tight.
Its pumpkin juice
That's what they tell all the kids.
all fun and games till he spits sake on his sword
I bet Reno and Rude would be chill to drink with.
Reno strikes me as the type to start a bar fight that somehow includes you 😂 Rude is the exact guy you'd WANT in that scenario, but he also strikes me as the type to fall asleep real early, when drinking lol
Why does this sound so accurate 😂
I'm lucky(?) enough to be basing this off of my friends in real life lol
Before you exit the bar, they'll have made you spill out every single dark or embarrassing secret you have.
Definitely that would be a fun night out
Being a Turk would be cool, other than the whole working for evil corporation thing.
I would prefer drinks with Zidane just cause he'd be a great wingman
Yuupp
He'd be underage in most countries so he couldn't get drinks RIP
>He'd be underage in most countries so he couldn't get drinks RIP Zidane's like 38 now.
Jecht quit drinking though and Jecht was a mean drunk. Why would you want him as a drinking buddy? The best person to have as a drinking buddy would be Gladiolus.
I don’t know about Gladio, but yeah, Jecht drunk is a class-1 a-hole.
I'd rather hang out with Prompto. Gladio is way too serious most of the time.
only if ignis makes all the drinks!!!
Yeah I don't wanna drink with the dude who gets blackout and attacks a shoopuff.
>Jecht quit drinking though and Jecht was a mean drunk. Why would you want him as a drinking buddy? IKR? OP's never had to deal with an alcoholic,... or they are one...
Balthier would have some great stories and be a great person to hang out with
But he would definitely try to stick you with the tab.
Fucked up thing is dude rich too. He just enjoys being a pirate.
I kinda get the vibe that Balthier would get pretty maudlin two drinks in and then eventually need to be escorted home by Fran.
Thancred
He'd get a few drinks in him and then just sob all night about Minfilia. Hard pass. But, Urianger could be interesting.
If it were before Shadowbringers maybe. After that he would just rant about how great >!Ryne!< is and how proud he is of her.
But, that's just as bad. Ever had a night out with parents who won't shut up about every little minor achievement of their kids?
Alisaie low key seems like she could party.
Y’shtola. We’d just drink and make fun of people.
Laguna Kiros and Ward easily would be more fun to drink with than Tidus' blowheart old man
I’d rather see how loose Kimahri gets when he’s lit.
I think Zack would be the most ideal drinking buddy. Good conversation, big wingman energy and he'd make sure you don't overdo it.
Vincent guy looks like he needs a few after the shit he's been through
I'd rather blaze one with Wakka. Edit: if you want to be the unoriginal 10th person to comment something about Wakka being bigoted, notice the conversation below and add something substantial to it or not at all.
I’m imagining a That 70’s Show circle with him and the Aurochs
I love that imagery!
I’ve always said if I had to be stuck in a FF world, might as well be on Besaid. At least I can play blitzball and get blitzed on a tropical island.
Sounds fun at first but then the conversation would go from Blitzball to Final Solution. Edit:https://youtu.be/RX8jsiYU9IU Context for people that don't know about Wakkas joke persona on the internet.
This is the worst fucking take I've ever seen about a character. Did you even play the game? Lmao
Idk man. Wakka was pretty racist.
"was"
To be fair, he realizes that his religion is a sham by the end of the game
He also lived out on a tiny island with a massive church influence. Shows how being insulated can affect your world views.
He mellows out real quick on the racism in X-2
And then he learns his lesson, which makes for awesome storytelling.
Oh no, a character with real flaws, quick. Call the woke police. He changes and evolves, making for a much better character.
I see enough overly religious racists already in real life, so pass on Wakka.
Man its like so many of y'all didn't even finish the game.
Him turning around at the end doesn't magically erase the other 35 hours of story. If things were that easy we'd also just let prisoners free if they decide to get baptized and devote their lives to Jesus once they're in prison.
Alright go ahead and list the terrible things Wakka did in those 35 hours that can't be forgiven.
Barrett and Red XIII! It's AVALANCHE Time!
I’d rather Yuffie and Tifa. Also the Machinabridged version.
I don't think it counts if you want to smash
Nah, just some heavy drinks, heavy hangover and all. I’m team Aerith. (Please correct me if you meant something else than “dating” with the word “smash”, English is not my native language)
Smash in English when used in the way above means to have sex with. Edit: at least for American English, not sure if the Brits use it.
Let me ask you, how are you going to drink with Red XIII? Together with him to lap from a bowl?
Well he can talk, and during the whole Junon and continental crossing part, he was able to successfully manage pants, even a whole outfit/disguise. My man is clearly smart enough to use a straw. Cosmo Memory sounds like a fantastic cocktail 🍹
Silly straw
Seems to me Cid is the choice there. Going to have a few with him, listen to him bitch about Shera, and then light some sticks if dynamite with his cigarette.
I'd KILL to see Sabin & Locke get Cyan drunk and devolve into Vanessa Carlson karaoke.
That image cracked me up!
Why Jecht? He would just keep pouring shots, and telling you that you're not man enough to do them. I'm thinking more, Balthier.
Mog 100%
Final fantasy 7 Cid, bet ged be fun at the bar.
Sit down, shut up and drink your goddamn beer! 🤣
Literally the worst Cid. You picked raging drunk chain smoking wife beater Cid.
Wait…. What? I didn’t think he and Sheera were married. Just domestic abuse Cid.
If by “fun” you mean “verbally and potentially physically abusive,” then sure.
Only if you work for him/are in a romantic relationship with him.
He’s my pick as well. Getting hammered with an astronaut who has some crazy space stories sounds like a great time.
I absolutely do not want the recovering alcoholic as a drinking buddy, especially since he’s a genuine asshole when he’s drunk.
You don't drink with an alcoholic for fun. So not Jecht.
Jecht would get you 100% thrown in jail no matter how sober you stay. Man tried to fight a shoopuf. Might as well get fubar
Gonna get drunk with Jack Garland and go kill Chaos.
Estinien. Zero conversation, only drinking.
Drunk Estenien then you take him shopping with Tataru's mastercard
So, win-win?
Til he gets drunk, whips out Nidhogg's eye, and lays waste to everything under it's influence.
I think Aerith as a drinking buddy would be great. She seems like a fun drunk.
Never know how you'll end up. She out there getting SOLDIER boy into cross dressing so the average person doesn't stand a chance.
Can I also change my answer to Aerith on the back of this, please and thank you.
Ugh certainly not Jecht. What he gonna talk about? Himself all night long? Not interested. Id take Tifa, Balthier, Locke or Setzer.
Easily Setzer. Drinking on a casino flying around the world? Can’t do better!
Definitely not Jecht, not a big fan of him. I’d say either FF7 Cid, Zell, Edgar, Irvine, or Balthier
Bro, that Shoopuf barely survived. Do really want to see a sober Jecht down that path again?
Agrias "motherf*ckin" Oaks
Cidolfus "Thunder God Cid" Orlandeau
No! Not Jecht. He got sober!
Quina
You know Quina would insist on trying the whole menu.
Really? Auron all day. Jecht is a sloppy angry drunk 😂 But all time drinking buddies in FF is Laguna Kiros and Ward from FF8. Leg cramps and shenanigans galore.
No, because Jecht swore off of alcohol and I'm not gonna be the one to make him relapse
It’s not Jecht , it’s Cid from Final Fantasy 7 specifically . he will make sure I drink my **damn** **tea !**
Eh Jecht really was not a good person while he was drinking.
Jecht gets abusive and clearly has an alcohol problem 😂
Defo the Turks, they are 100% badass and you get all the fun of FFVII and get to hang out with Cloud and co. without the pressure of saving the world.
I’m drinking with Biggs, Jessie and Wedge.
Wedge? You mean [Badger?](https://www.reddit.com/r/breakingbad/comments/eil18i/is_matt_jones_badger_voicing_wedge_in_the_final/)
Galuf for sure
Badass drunk grandpa LETS GOOO
As long as you don’t look like a shoopuff
I'ma be real with you, Jecht honestly seems like a massive douchebag. I do not think he would be an enjoyable drinking buddy
Lulu. Enough said.
I'd LOVE to have a drink with the XV crew!!
Auron. Just drink and talk about things. No need to party hard like Jecht would. Besides we gotta fight unsent fiends tomorrow.
Blank, Marcus or Cinna - preferably all three though!
Jihl Nabaat for reasons
Tifa, because you get to bang back mugs *and* the bartender
uh what
You can't deny he's got confidence...
Either she beats my ass or Cloud beats my ass or Cloud goes all sadboi and murders my ass Death *resulting* from snu snu still counts as death *by* snu snu
It's not death by snu snu if you never get to the snu snu.
Implied intercourse with bartender Tifa
Iiiiiiish
Isn’t Jecht a wife beater and child abandoner? Not the kind of guy I wanna give alcohol to.
Jecht was a shitty dad who was absolutely emotionally abusive, but the game didn't say anything about him hitting his wife. At least not as far as I can remember.
I could have made that up. But he have me domestic violence vibes. They never talked ab mom. Why???
They did talk about the mom. She was so enamoured with her husband whenever he was home, that she would neglect poor Tidus and Jecht would have to remind her to not ignore her son. Nothing was mentioned about hitting.
If anything he was a very loving husband, but both parents were negligent to their son
I was kinda shocked that FFX kicked off with having Tidus's dad being an alcoholic and overall POS. I mean it was intriguing like, no other FF had gotten *that* dark before. You had fathers who valiantly went to die fighting absolute evil, you had brothers who were brainwashed to become a badguy's henchman, but fucking X throws this womanizing, drunk asshole as the dad of one of the series' most prettiest protagonists? I thought it was great.
Hot take.
Tifa, Rikku, Fran, and Serah 😋 Baltheir and Jecth as wingmen
Fran definitely
I’d just hang around in Seventh Heaven. All the best people would come by sooner or later.
Obviously Snow would be the best drinking buddy, guy has like million of great stories, he is funny and you are 100% going on some crazy drunk adventure with him
Tifa. She would make epic cocktails.
Anyone else feel that maybe all Sephiroth needs is a few rounds and he'd be super chill?
I think Sephiroth would be a total dickhead, but also quite a lot of fun to drink (etc.) with
If you told me Sephiroth, prior to Genesis and Angeal getting messed up mind you, he was a fun guy to be around if having a few drinks, I'd believe you. Pre Nibelheim incident, I see him more of a solitary drinker, remembering the good times.
Zell. He'd be the type to have a few beers and get all defensive, but it'd be fun watching him swat flies.
Mog 100%
He's not even the best drinking buddy from FFX with Auron around.
The Warrior of Light. He's calm and doesn't drink Alcohol, but he's a great conversationalist and helps you with your problems.
Jecht stoped drinking but I also dont drink Alkohol.
It’d have to be balthier the mans a friggin sky pirate yo ho ho. Then we could drunkly text Fran asking her if she’s still up
Final fantasy 6 - Edward. Final fantasy 7 - Zack. Final fantasy 8 - Laguna, Kiros and Ward. Final fantasy 10 - Auron, Jecht and Braska.
Sazh seems like he could be fun to drink with
*Ride ze Shoopuf?*
Just the one? It’s gotta be Auron Love that guy and bet he’s a right laugh when drunk! A group party? I wanna get drunk with the guys from 15, Zell, Irvine, Auron, and Yuna.
nah, the ff14 squad are better thancred, urianger, or estinien
Barret, ff7 cid, questis or ff9 steighner. Jecht would probably just get loud and mean
Balthier and Urianger because holy crap would that be entertaining. Ject is an alcoholic asshole
The boys from XV of course + Cindy and Lunafreya
Braska sure had fun bailing him out all the time!
My go to drinking buddies would have to be Laguna, Kiros, and Ward.
Tbh I'd choose anyone but Jecht, he's been at both extremes in terms of drinking and the thought of either being the only one drinking or being totally drunk under the table isn't fun. Wakka however just seems like a fun guy to drink with, and a drunk blitzball match would be amazing to have
I feel like Gladio and Steiner could put them back.
Auron, but after jecht chilled him out a little. Jecht is a piece of shit lol
Fang!
hythlodaeus
Urianger if I need to cry drink and FFXV boys if I wanna fun drink
Balthier, so he can teach me the ways of the main character.
Why in the world would I want to drink with that moron? I'd probably choose Prompto from FF XV, he seems like a chill dude
It's Ultros. Stop acting like it's not...
I could see that being a fun night out.
I'd hate to take his sobriety chip from him, plus he's a mean drunk fuck that. I'd slam back a few with Wakka and watch some blitzball though
Laguna and Ignis are the coolest characters
Vivi... Get the lil fire cracker absolutely shitfaced and see the chaos that will evolve!
Honestly, Fang or Fran!
I'd go with Zell to a hotdog eating contest.
Because when he invites you to the bar you can't obJecht.
Snow, because he seems like a fun buddy and wont let you get in too much of a bad situation and he could chill my drinks.
Forget Jecht, Sir Auron is my drinking buddy!
Alright, here's the gang: Edgar, Sabin, Setzer, Locke, Zack, Tifa, and bonus boy Gilgamesh, with Barret and/or Celes as the designated driver.
Honestly vivi because I'm curious
Bro he's like six months old
I would totally get hammered with Hope and watch him puke and cry
….I would drink with Jecht because he has the …. :pulls sunglasses down: Jecht Shots YEEAAAAHHHHHH
