    Cloud drags Final Fantasy VII (OG) down. He’s the least interesting playable character and his amnesia subplot overstays its welcome.

    Also, Cait Sith is the best character.

      I’d say I agree to a point. I think Cloud is what makes the storyline what it is, but at the same time. I’d agree that his character could’ve been fleshed out a bit more in a lot of ways. Especially in his relationships with Aerith, Sephiroth and Zack.

        I guess I never cared for the main plot much either. For me the characters are the best part of the game. They make the story. Heck, a lot of the game is exploring their individual stories that aren’t connected to the overall plot.

        As opposed to FVIII where the main plot is everything and rarely involves the side characters.
