How about that Necron?

I liked Necron, especially more than Ultimecia, she was just annoying throughout the entire game.

Spoiler: I see Necron the same as Yu Yevon was in Final Fantasy X. Behind the scenes and pulling strings and you don't know your true enemy until the very last minute. Necron in a sense pulled the story together and essentially gave the reasons as to why things were happening like the Mist spreading across the whole world.

Plus it was Final Fantasy going back to it's roots, even the game was advertised as "the return of the crystal" or "the crystal comes back" something to that effect lol. But overall liked Necron

I didn't like him , I think it should of just been left with Kuja as the final boss, the end was the 1st time Necron was even mentioned, totally annoying, I didn't get the point of having him, also he is a total pain I only beat him once out of sheer damn luck, and never managed to do it again, as far as I'm concerned as soon as I've kicked Kuja's butt it's game finished lol

That's the problem, usually those who didn't understand why Necron appeared or why SquareEnix bothered putting him in this game end up hating him. But what's there to understand, it's simple we have life and death. Necron is death and the crystal is life, by destroying the crystal what's left.

I guess they could come up with the end where Kuja fails to destroy the crystal, but that would be an epic fail in my book. Why? Well, it seems not many people have noticed but Square Enix had plans for Necron right from the start, the earlier Final Fantasy games showed us the world where crystals were important, they showed what exactly happens if the crystals disappear. The worlds would be thrown into chaos, slowly but surely loosing life. Destroying the crystal in Final Fantasy IX had the same effects, only in this game Necron was the one who would wipe out Gaia if it weren't for Zidane's gang.

As for his difficulty that's completely different problem, it's not just you, many complain about his difficulty which is strange since I found him to be quite easy even on low levels, I suppose you haven't fought Ozma.

It seems you didn't quite understand what Necron really is, as I said he wasn't mastermind as Zeromune and Ultimecia were, he didn't pull the strings which means he wasn't responsible for any of the events during the game, including the mist. He's death itself, and death doesn't appear until life ends, he appeared only when crystal was destroyed just to fulfill his duty.

Oh alright my mistake, I thought he was behind it all along but in fact he is just doing his job of destroying the world and creating it anew after the crystal was destroyed. That makes sense now. And the crystal was destroyed because of Kuja's actions and so to revert the chain of events that Kuja had set off by destroying the crystal and summoning Necron, Zidane and co had to defeat Death itself to save the world. Makes that battle even more enjoyable because the dialogue did confuse me a little bit. I'll have to go back and pay closer attention to exactly what Necron was saying trying to explain his purpose.
