    Which ex move do you think is the best?

    You have to take into account more than just damage output. Gabranth in EX Mode is faster than all those names you just listed except Tidus. His combos string longer like Terra's but he can pull them off significantly quicker than she can ever hope to do. Not to mention ALL his HP attacks end...

    Advent Children FFVII WEB NOVEL

    Thanks for the links. I read Tifa's story a while back but lost the link to this webpage. Now I can finish the rest of them!

    How could dissidia have been better

    Even though it is possible to master any character and defeat another opponent despite disadvantages, I think balance is still an issue. You rarely see slower melee fighters win tournaments (although I saw a Cloud win one by beating a Kuja). It could just be some changes from the Japanese...

    Zack vs. Cloud: Who's Stronger?

    Very true. I guess the best argument we can come up with for these two is "Who has better hair?" or something like that.

    Zack vs. Cloud: Who's Stronger?

    Sephiroth, the best SOLDIER Shinra ever had as well as the guy who gave Zack a beating, was killed by Omnislash the very first time it was used against him. That level of power caught him off guard, and while he fended it off the second time (Advent Children Complete), Cloud merely surprised...

    Dissidia Character Discussion Thread

    ^ agreed. Garland was a lot more interesting in Dissidia than in his original game. Can't say the same for some other characters, though lol. Here's a video I watched on the Dissidia Forums. They have a lot of amazing players who would most likely obliterate any of us. This is what I hope...

    Which ex move do you think is the best?

    I'd say Gabranth has the best EX Mode. He's quicker, learns a better moveset, has extended combos that almost always end with the opponent breaking, and his EX Burst is amazing to watch every time. Here's a tourney video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OcsBJAbpw9s

    Zack vs. Cloud: Who's Stronger?

    Ok then. Zack lands more blows on Cloud since he's more experienced. Cloud's limit gauge fills quicker. Cloud uses Omnislash. Zack realizes that there are indeed worse ways to die than being shot.

    Cloud's personality

    Makes sense, I'll accept that.

    Cloud's personality

    Depends on which Zack you're comparing with? The one in the game (who we know nothing about other than Cloud being his imitation) or the one portrayed in the OVA nearly a decade after the game was made?

    Zack vs. Cloud: Who's Stronger?

    That's because people who use this approach haven't completed FF7 or never even touched it at all. They play/watch the spin-offs and feel more attachment to these minor characters. I completely agree that luck is not part of Cloud's success. He received more severe wounds than Zack (being...

    Cloud's personality

    Yeah, maybe he's just that introverted guy who only forms attachments to those he trusts (which isn't a lot of people). Remember in the space ship when Cid got stuck under the debris and Cloud said "I never leave my friends behind!" or something along those line? That's the Cloud I tend to...

    Cloud's personality

    Here's my take. This game was made before Crisis Core, Advent Children, etc. As far as we knew, the cold, uncaring, cocky persona was indeed Zack Fair. Only after the other stuff came, did we begin to see a more light-hearted Zack who's optimistic and compassionate. That was a failure on...

    Most Complex Characters

    Golbez (IV) - I'd like to know how he was affected in the aftermath of Zemus' control over him. You know he was a good guy in his youth and played a good guy role in "Aftermath". I wonder how much of his cruel manipulator personality was really his and how much was Zemus'. How much did Zemus'...

    Create A Character

    I'll probably make an original character later on in this thread, but for now, I'd say I would like to see Link from Legend of Zelda to make a cameo appearance. Anyone who's played his series, used him in the Super Smash Bros. series, or even played with him in Soul Calibur 2 will admit that he...

    How Manly was Cloud in VII?

    I never got the scenario where Don picks Cloud (thankful for it, too). After Don hands Cloud over to his henchmen, one of them tries to feel him up only to mention that his body felt a bit muscular. Considering his already lean frame and the dress that covers his arms, I'd say Cloud could pass...

    BioWare: "Final Fantasy XIII is not an RPG" [5/14]

    I agree that this isn't an RPG game. Sure you can buy weapons and learn spells, but everything is so scripted for you. I couldn't hang out in one area for too long before I ran out of things to do and had to move on the linear path that was set for me. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed it as an...

    Dissidia Character Discussion Thread

    Agreed. If you have omni-airdash, Ultima is pretty easy to avoid and you can take advantage of the other player's immobility. I can also see Terra holding her own against inexperienced melee players, but she'd get obliterated by people like Tidus and Squall at that range.

    Where in FF would you live?

    Wow difficult question...but I think I'll go with Costa Del Sol. I'm used to the heat, the environment is relaxing, it has an ocean, it's far enough from Midgar, no need to worry about owning a lot of clothes (just swimsuits!), and the music is cool. Sure, the cost of living seems to be a bit...
