They really did a good job of reminding you that his body might be 21/22 but he's actually a very....very traumatized 15/16 year old. And a sassy one at that.
That is what has been on my mind too. He has lost 5 whole years of his life and fucked up memories to cope with the trauma. He missed an important stage of maturity thingy something in those 4 years
@@nathanevans1382 I agree! I am personally a big fan of Advent Children, but we can't deny that some of the dialogue is downright boring. The Remake did a MUCH better job!:)
I love Cloud's sass but his moments of being awkward and dorky are even greater because it breaks down his tough exterior. Also, that catty eyeroll he gives Barret on the train is too damn sexy, lol!
He reminds me of my mom- she’s a savage who has gone through a lot of shit and says things like they are. If she hates you, she’ll say it bluntly. She even has a death glare when she gets mad just like he does 😂
Cloud before: *Look, just let me live my peaceful days, give me my god damn money, and we never have to do this ever again.* Cloud now: *Fuck it. I can't get peace, I can't get my god damn money, and now I have to save the world.*
The part that really got me was Cloud, with all the subtlety of a bull in a china shop, yelling "the mayor" into the faces of innocent employees while Barret is knocking down and dragging around every unoccupied chair in the break room.
Cloud: get help. Also Cloud: *having headaches/PTSD episodes for half a minute* I think you're the one that needs help, buddy. EDIT: wow I never had this many likes in my life and I never expected this comment to have the most likes, thanks.
@@AshysWolfie19 It gets to the point that a certain one-winged angel even crashed into one of the biggest crossover games yet JUST to fuck with Cloud lmao
Literally everyone was bitching about Cloud’s existence and how they wouldn’t have cared if he died right in front of him and Tifa, but she didn’t give a shit unless Cloud bit back. It really pissed me off. Especially that scene in the bar where everyone but Jessie treats him like an outsider because Tifa “needs to spend some time with the gang”.
Cloud is now one of my favorite video game characters ever, coming from someone who hasn't played the original or any other final fantay game before this.
You forgot when they leave the first reactor. Where Jessie shouts at Cloud to move faster. And that he has no time to loot the place. He straight up tells her to shut up and move along. Mans wants his treasure.
The thing is, I played the OG and watched Advent Children when I was in high school. so he's sorta like that badass, cool, edgy, protagonist I have a crush on. Now I'm playing the remake as a 27 (now 30 for the Rebirth) years old and he kinda feels like a teenager in puberty with poor social skills but just have that adorableness that make u wanna protecc and cant be mad. On another note this made me laugh so much, thank you hahahaha
Something I’d like to point out, which may not be true but could be interesting anyway, is when Cloud says “Nailed it, I know, thank you, moving on” he looks at the viewers instead of Tifa. I like to think that this is the developers telling us they “nailed it” upon bringing back this scene. Cloud speaks for the devs. Thanks Cloud.
@@pastelara4242 nope it definitely doesn't fit Cloud style to dance in order to save people, he litteraly went on stage after seeing Aerith reaction, also the descriptions of the danse scene in interviews or in the Ultimania doesn't mension Tifa at all, only Aerith (for the song mostly) or Zack
