  1. Play the games these heroes are in!
    Tales of Vesperia
    Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 – PlayStation 2
    XenobladeX Wii U [JAPAN IMPORT]

  2. I really like Isaac from Golden Sun, the entirety of the first game he’s determined to stop the lighting of the Elemental Lighthouses for the greater good when soon you discover that the land of Weyard will face destruction if they’re not lit. Also in Lost Age he became even more likeable and we can see the effect of his adventures ob the world, he has badass earth powers and it’s a shame he hasn’t been in Smash yet

  3. Cloud’s journey of personal transformation — from a badass loner mercenary to a responsible leader to a babbling mental wreck, to the deconstruction of his entire self-fabricated persona, and eventually, to acceptance that it’s not too bad just to be a regular guy who says things like “Let’s mosey” — is genuinely sympathetic.

    Clouds subconscious was one of the most detailed growths in the series because it makes you realize why he is the way he is, the real Cloud talking to imposter Cloud. His nagging memory poking holes in his constructed self.

    • Cloud is the ultimate “baller” of the FF universe. Which FF protagonist can say he had the entire female cast all over him and even other character like Jessie.

    • Cloud is a deep and intricate character with multiple layers. He’s also pretty much had the worst life of any video game character, or at least he’s up there.
