Final Fantasy XIII has my favourite answer to the question 'why do these characters stick together?': 'they don't.' Lightning just fucks off on her own for half the game and it's twenty hours before she concedes that, fine, she might as well work with these guys.
Final Fantasy X is solid: there's Yuna, there's her guardians, there's the guy who's just dropped into this world and really needs to stick with anyone willing to take him under their wing. You know both why they're travelling and why they're doing it together.
I love Final Fantasy VIII with all my heart, but I can't say for sure why these crazy kids stick together past the point of doing contractually obliged missions.
