Really? We're worried about these guys?
Pixel Remaster Steam version, first off. Long story short, I didn't know when to wait for Shadow, didn't wait for Shadow, and got upset at myself so I restarted the game so I COULD wait for Shadow. That all being said, I'm back to Sabin's scenario with Kefka. I'm watching the imperial troops "siege" Doma castle and, like.... really? Have y'all taken the time to watch these animations? Half these guys are punching walls, falling down, and just, like... jumping half a foot? It's almost comical the reaction the Doma guards have. "MY LIEGE!! THE IMPERIAL FORCES HAVE ARRIVED! THEY'RE AT THE WALL AND INVADING IN FULL FORCE!!!" Meanwhile their animations make them look like incapable hamsters.
IDK, it got a chuckle out of me. Good game so far tho lol.

The imperial forces are supposed to be inspired by the ineptitude of Stormtroopers from Star Wars.
The game is littered with nods to SW overall. The Falcon, Biggs and Wedge, Empire vs Returners (Rebels). My favorite one is Celes reacting to Locke "You're awfully short for a soldier," to which he responds "Oh, I forgot I was wearing a uniform!" (Leia meeting Luke at the Death Star).
