Why do people keep saying that Cloud takes his personality off Zack? It baffles me. I'd get it if we were judging from FFVII alone, as we knew nothing about Zack's personality then, that can be forgiven, but Crisis Core really should of killed off that silly comment.
Zack is probably the most confident upbeat person in VII, and yes I'm aware of Aeris. Plus he's such a flirt around the ladies: Cissnei, the receptionist, Aeris, it probably goes on. Is Cloud like this? Not at all. Cloud seems perfectly opposite to him, the only things they really have in common is the Nibelheim incident, they both wanted to be heroes (tho I do believe that Cloud just wanted to be noticed more than anything else) and they both liked the same girl at one time or another (Aeris).
He copies some of Zack's memories, some gestures and very rarely says stuff that Zack may have done, or at least has more chance of saying than regular Cloud would, and even then those are optional. For example you can talk to Tifa in Seventh Heaven and select "next to you who wouldnt", or in Costa De Sol comment on one of the girls in bikini's lol.
Sorry but this just annoys me, I love both characters but they're not alike, not at all. plus as I said I don't get why that's still being said.
My reaction to the whole Cloud got his
memories and possibly some mannerisms from Zack (and I'm guessing you're referring to the original game after the Lifestream incident) was simply, huh that's weird, god Tifa's a bullying little cow. lol. Though I bet some people who played Crisis Core before seeing anything else from VII will be pretty confused at the scene after the credits. That scene wasn't just programmed in for us fanatics, it was probably to lure new fans into getting other games/movies cos they'll wonder wtf happened there? ^_^
Oh and watching the ending on youtube and playing/watching the entire thing on the PSP.. you cannot compare. So amazing, I was more teared up over the last few moments of his battle with all the memories fading away. Yep it would of been amazing to have more Zack in the original game or anything else, his character was amazing.
