No, really, it isn't. If you think about it, you spend a lot of time and emotional energy investing in the Final Fantasy games (what, like, over 100 hours? That's more emotional investment than I've made in some ex-girlfriends) and then you get to the big dramatic climax and BANG like that it's over.
I wept and sobbed at the end of FF8 - and then I started the whole thing over again.
Yeah, I figured that too. I felt a little silly, but then I also weep like an infant at the sad part in books and movies, and when I think about it I spend a lot less time with the majority of those characters.
I guess it says something for the writing and the story that I got this emotionally invested in the game.
