8. Cid Orlandu - Final Fantasy Tactics

Let it be known: Final Fantasy Tactics is not an easy game. Whereas the RPG counterpart of the series will gradually ramp up the difficulty across the main narrative, the tactics games absolutely batter you straight out of the gate and drop to a mild bollock stomping by the end.

Therefore, you're going to want to get every single bit of help that you can get a hold of, and that usually translates to recruiting the strongest fighters to your roster. Which makes it all the more strange that, as Shiny_FX has pointed out, Cid is a mediocre combatant at best, yet he's most definitely going to be the most easily missed and potentially most useless unlockable in the game.

To unlock Cid for recruitment, you basically need to have completed everything in the game 100% bar the final mission. Only then will he emerge to show off his, er, pretty average skills. It wouldn't be so bad if you could drop back and level him up, but remember you're at a point where capping off the game is but one mission away, so you have to ask... what was the point of this?
