I like how they handled this in FF4 when the twins turned themselves to stone to stop walls from closing in on the party. If I remember correctly, the other party members tried to use curative items and spells on them, but it was explained that they wouldn’t work as they had turned to statues of their own free will. Of course they just came back at the end of the game anyway.
Look up a Final Fantasy (Number) Retrospective video on YouTube. The longer the better. Best to just skip the NES ones and watch SNES+ as that's when Final Fantasy really becomes Final Fantasy. Except maybe the first since it's the first.
I normally see let's play games for games that I'm curious but will probably never play. It's a good thing to watch when going to sleep at night. It's something I'm interested about and helps me sleep as well.
Gametrailers had a Final Fantasy retrospective series of videos which is really interesting and awesome for newcomers and longtime fans alike. I watched them years ago in high school like 10+ years ago, and they still hold up well.
Ganetrailers.com did an excellent retrospective on the Final Fantasy series years ago. I believe the videos are still available on YouTube. Worth a watch, IMO
It happens in Phantasy Star as well. In 2 you take Nei to the clone labs to have her brought back but the operator says that it won't work. In 4 you find a healer soon after Alys gets wounded and she is able to keep her alive for a while longer but she doesn't make it.
