Did the developers of Final Fantasy X know that people wouldn't use Kimarhi?

Wasn't he a Dragoon + Blue Mage? Shit I'd use him and only him then.
...Yes, nobody would be crazy enough to give everyone a turn in every battle they come across. ....Maybe I did that.
Kimahri's pretty damn useful for the early Steal/Lv. 3 keysphere/Mighty Guard stuff mentioned in this thread, but it's also worth mentioning that, pre-Celestial Weapons, he also has a bunch of *really* nice (and varied) weapon drops from chests. Much of his stuff is fairly standard attack+X% and Piercing, so basically Auron's weapon drops, but he also gets some pretty great magic-user weapons IIRC.
That said, if they ever actually remake FFX, I hope they either make Blue Magic way more offensively powerful like the other limits, or at least make Jump an actual turn-delayed classic Jump command that you can use to avoid big AoE attacks.

he is a clone but still human
gladio scarfs down cup noodles like a demon and still has the bod
inhuman
I sometimes still have vietnam style flashbacks to that god damned boss fight. I awake screaming in the night drenched in sweat. I still have a nervous eye twitch to this day.
So many fucking failed attempts. So many cups of tea or snacks i went to go make while waiting for that stupid cutscene to end.
If i was a game reviewer and a game pulled the "unskipabble cutscene in front of big difficulty spike" thing i would automatically give it a 0/10.
It sucks that he doesn't really get his own skill tree like the other characters do. Assuming you're not using the Expert Sphere Grid, there is very little incentive to think of him as anything but an inferior back-up to another character. It doesn't help that he's probably the least interesting character in your party. Like, Sazh might be the worst character in FFXIII stat wise but at least sort of makes up for it by being one of the best actual characters plot wise.
I remember when I was younger I used one of those Action Replay things to cheat in FFX. I'm not even sure why since I had already beaten it before. But anyway, when you fight Seymour for the first time Kimahri is forced into battle and it caused a 100% crash and I remember feeling really pissed off about it. Ever since then I just have this sort of resentment towards him, despite the fact the crash might not have anything to do with him. Just the fact it always crashed at the same point when he was forced into the party with Yuna and Tidus and that I never normally use him was enough to put me off him haha.
Strago is FF6's Kimahri equivalent. Off the top of my head, I can't think of an equivalent for Gau in any other FF game. And blue magic is great in games like FF5 and FF7 where you actually get access to it early and it's not locked behind a Limit Break.
Kimahri's name has been misspelled consistently in this thread. Thought it was a meme when it was misspelled two different ways in the OP alone.
Anyway, he's the blu mage, if you ignore him he will suck, but if you spend time to learn skills he will rock.

Imo the hate for Kimahri is overblown.
I used him as part of my main party the first time I played FFX and had no trouble clearing the game at all. Yes, he may not be the most efficient character in terms of "win the game" but I really liked him, so fuck all that lol

Kimahri is never brought up when FFX becomes a topic. I was suprised when he showed up as a party member and yeah, I never used him.
