* LaserGuidedKarma: Alfonso in the beginning kills his Vice Captain in a bid to preserve his reputation by pinning the Blue Rogues raid on him by stating that he was TheMole. Upon returning to Valua and giving his embellished story, he's informed that since the Blue Rogues let the survivors go after cleaning the ship out, they not only made it back home first, but gave a much more credible report which gets Alfonso demoted for lying [[ReassignedToAntartica and kicked to Ixa'Taka]].

That's more Hopeless Boss Fight, and it's already covered in the paragraph for that trope


* FailureIsTheOnlyOption: The first battle against Ramirez is like this. Reviewers have noted that by this point in the game the player should be able to kick his ass if he didn't have infinite HP, making it more like just giving up the fight rather than being overpowered.

** As the overworld is set entirely in the sky, you would expect it to be uniform and boring. You'd be wrong. The overworld is full of waterfall-like sky rifts, floating islands and continents, and all kinds of fantastic natural formations.
** The islands, towns and dungeons explored don't shy away from mining the "floating island" theme. The dungeons are full of breathtaking natural formations and artificial structures that keep them from becoming repetitive.
** In fact, many of the game's environments were released as wallpapers. Not artistic or CGI renditions of the environments, mind you, but the in-game environments themselves, featuring just as many polygons as they do in the game. That's how gorgeous the game is.

* BettyAndVeronica: Loosely speaking, hauntingly beautiful waif from another world Fina vs. ActionGirl childhood friend and partner-in-crime Aika, respectively. However, it is [[DownplayedTrope downplayed]] and largely [[AvertedTrope averted]], because neither girl actively pursues Vyse.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Rupee Larso. Nice kid, [[FatherIDontWantToFight doesn't like violence]]...but when you get his HP down below half, he can pull out his Berserk Rupee attack for devastating damage [[spoiler:(unless you've finished off Barta already)]].

Vyse, but both get ShipTease with this one.
