Don't you get it? thats what made Cloud such an interesting character, and made FF7 such a deep and interesting game. Far better than the suckyness that was FF8 "Uh we all grew up at the same orphanage but then fiddle-di-de we just plain forgot, duh!!, but what a coincidink that we all ended up as friends being the only peple who can save the world!!"
I mean what kind of half-assed shit was that?. I quite liked FF9, thought it was very good. But FF7 was definatly the best in the series.
I think the thing with most of the FF7 haters is one of three reasons
1: Most of them played it alot later than when it was 1st released and theirfore judge the game mostly on its graphics
2: Because it is popular, some people automatically jump on the hating wagon because they (on some level) believe that it elevates them to the elite few who are "smart" enough to know the "truth" and not be swallowed by the masses. And the sole reason is its popularity, evidence of this mentality can be seen with the haters of the later Matrix movies.
3: Some people just did not "get" the story, for some reason, maybe they just did not give it a chance, maybe it seemed too complex to follow properly, maybe they just did not like the story because it just did not "click" with them.
In general I think these are the 3 reasons for most of the haters. Because its simply fantastic on so many levels. Looking forward to Advent Children alot, because Cloud kicks so much ass.
