Dissidia 012: Duodecim Final Fantasy - vs. Cloud Encounter Quotes 

Well, at least he polished it and put in the church at the end of Advent Children Complete.

It's because he didn't feel worthy of using the Buster Sword anymore, or something.

+♡ Severa ♡ yea that's sort of true but the buster sword was getting old and him knowing that he was slipping into darkness made him feel unworthy

Dude but rlly cloud has used over 10 different swords lol the newest sword he has is buster sword CC

Thomas Swanson Yes, and he probably doesn't consider it his/doesn't think he lives up to Zack.

Cloud: HEY HOW 'BOUT THAT REGRET, AMIRITE

Dat true

Caitlin Gebala Kefka vs. Cloud: "What's so funny?" Tidus: "AHA HA HA. AHA HA HA..."

crystarius Someone should make a meme out out this with Clouds Face and "Do you even doubt,Bro?" written under it! :D

crystarius thats all i heard too

Seliasei Cloud was always pretty confident throughout most of FF7 and the expanded universe, save for AC where Cloud is literally DYING and has plenty reason to be depressed. Unfortunately his depressed AC persona became his default.

Fierce Saint Well, for a good part of FF7, his memories and personality were fucked with. It was a different persona resulting from a mix of his memories of Zack's personality and the kind of cocky attitude he expected a SOLDIER 1st class would have. Not to mention, there was 2 years between FF7 and Advent Children. It'd be perfectly understandable and expected for him to become depressed and plagued by feelings of guilt and helplessness like that after things calmed down and he had time for things to sink in completely. He lost his home town, his mother, years of his life to Hojo's torture and experiments, Zack, Aerith, and all the dreams and ambitions he once had. He's had to deal with so much loss in his life and people then start stabbing at his personality in AC. His personality at least seemed to have perked up a bit after the conflict was over with in AC.

I kind of agree but as he was pretrade in this game it's horrible

Duel Verse Well, this game isn't exactly canon and things are a little screwy, so... yeah.

If people went through what cloud went through they would be equally as emo

Tzu-Han Yang I don’t get it...

Nerdy Birdy 2030 I know it's a month late but - When Cloud encounters Cloud, it's a reference to Final Fantasy VII where there is a section of the game where Cloud faces multiple versions of himself (emotionally not physically) in order to realign his actual memories from his false ones.

Well, He always hate himself for being gloomy pessimistic failure

@@mcintosh0265 Jenova can take the form of other people and alter memories.

Lmao

Ikr! Laughing thinking about it right now!

Probably prefers to have a healthy relationship.

Man, that sucks. Steve is great as Cloud- I just wish Cloud was given more inflection. Isn’t Cloud more lively towards the very end of FF7?

Yeah I think Cloud was more livelier toward the end of FF7. I guess the cloud the voice director was going for (and probably the dissidia game too) was the Advent Children Cloud when he was sad, but this is just speculation

I read somewhere that Steve Burton no longer voices Cloud because he didn't want to get vaccinated. I'm not sure if that's true or not, though.

@@redmage8719 That's not true. Every original FF7 voice cast were all fired even long before the pandemic happened and the jab ruling had nothing to do with why VAs had to be all fired. The real reasoning is the former Activision Blizzard Entertainment CMO took over Square Enix as a new CMO around in 2018 and it's not a coincidence that the secret audition for FF7R were being held around the end of 2018 without even telling everybody even the OG voice cast why they were all replaced. It was about cash-grabbing marketing to benefit the viewership for the CW/Warner Bros/Sony/Funimation networks because it's no coincidence either that the newbies were all associated with those same networks, and they wanna target/market the gamers into their lowly profit shows like All American, Fairly Odder shows, Supergirl, and Teen Wolf shows.

that was the best one xD

@@stephaniek3663 He can now say that to Pichu and Olimar in Smash Ultimate

Christian Bell Cloud: Uhh..the pillar was..Uhh..IT WAS HIM

El Hydroxy Onion Knight: Wait wha-

Christian David Garcia lmao

Rin Mizuhashi All about the doubts, 'bout the doubtsNo sureness?

+Rin Mizuhashi Are you sure?

Oh yes. I'm sure you'd be confident while taking on the world government and an alien clone god that summoned a giant planet busting meteor after it killed your first love and you found out your memories weren't your own.

I... want to know too.

Gino Ramos It would....BE good to know.

Darkwaver Studios Why dont... You go ask him?

Gino Ramos Because....I can't....Go into....A video game.

Darkwaver Studios Do you doubt yourself? Let go of your doubts. You need to live without doubts. If you have doubts, I doubt you'll let go of the doubts without doubting the doubts. My point is... let go of your doubts.

+Richard Metclaf Cloud: my hair defies gravity!

Cloud: You look like a Juggalo Dragqueen and you're laughing at me?

Lol

Lmfao

i like zack

Matt Andrew Yeah! Zack's a GREAT character! :D I'm saying that I wouldn't like Cloud to be just like him. Jockin' his style, personality, etc. That's partially why I'm happy Cloud is the way he is. And I like the emo-ness. XD

I agree it fits him so well

I think he is alright as Cloud. He does sound emotionless in a lot of areas. I know it is not his job to direct how he sounds. It is the director's decision, but he does seem off on lots of lines.

TheTribalOne well, I guess we'll see how he does as arrogant Cloud at the beginning.

Jackal Strife hi! I also like this voice actor and i think i kinda really DIDN't like the ff7's.

Oof

Yep

She knows what it feels like to be a tool i guess they're one of the same

Honestly, I'm with you man. I have no perception of him as whiny or emo, whatsoever. He strikes me more as a cool, smooth kinda guy. A real example of the saying still-waters-run-deep. I also love this voice actor, and idk where all this hate comes from other than he just didn't match up to peoples' mental image.

Right. His voice actor is REALLY good. And you're probly right. :/ Especially since he's not like Zack anymore. Everyone seemed to love that Cloud. >_>

Ah, you know how people are. To be honest, Crisis Core's interpretation of Zack wasn't my favorite, but I don't go around bashing how it didn't match my mental image of the character or his voice, lol.

Yeah. I thought Zack was cool. And yeah. Going from VII to Crisis Core, I didn't think he'd be like that either. I was cool with it cuz he was a good character. But I sorta didn't like how Crisis Core made things a bit more convoluted. :/

Yeah, I like Zack a lot as a character myself. I guess the Genesis and Angeal storylines kinda wore me out, and I imagined Zack being a bit more gallant and charming rather than puppyish and boyish. ...See, now we're starting to sound like the people we were just talking about bashing Cloud, LOL.

It's cold and course

And it gets everywhere

+Roxas theNobody I'm tired of Sephiroth! He's jealous! HE'S HOLDING ME BACK!!

+Hylian Dragoon You underestimate my power!

Hikari Yagami No. Don't try it.

Not really though

and still is a little bitch if you compare to his mentor. and the mentor of his mentor (Zack and Angeal) in my eyes cloud is a shame to the sword they gave him.

Lightning was based on Cloud...

Cloud is more powerful than both Angeal and Zack but sure dude, he is a shame to the sword they gave him. I mean he just defeated Jenova, Sephiroth and saved the planet with his fellows. But that surely means nothing.

@DarkSonic180 How about you play the game where he is the protagonist, just so you can actually learn about him and see if what you said is true (spoilers alert, it isn't)? And if you say you did, either you are lying or you didn't pay any attention to the game.

Funny though, in the first game he says in that same match up "If I win, will my sins truly be forgiven?"

Tifa knows him though so he at least at some point visited 7

Both this and the original incarnation from FF7 were equally as bland. I don't get why so many people get offended by this one.

+Aldonos Probably because they interpreted him cooler, given it was text.

Streak Yeah, Steve Burton's voice REALLY affected a lot of Cloud's character in my opinion. The sad part is, Cloud may have actually been pretty cool before he became voice acted. But damn, Steve Burton's voice just totally ruined him, now he sounds like a guy waking up 24/7

@@toysouldier1 I don't think you realize that Cloud is SUPPOSED to sound like he does. Steve Burton makes his voice and character perfect for the way he acts because of everything that's happened to Cloud in everything he's featured in. Cloud is SUPPOSED to sound monotone. He is SUPPOSED to be moody. Taking Crisis Core, all of VII and Advent Children into consideration (all of which are canon), Steve Burton portrayed Cloud perfectly and the fact that he was changed for the remake saddens me. The remake Cloud isn't a bad voice actor by any means, but I just prefer Steve's voice for Cloud.

@@Russman25123 100%!!

I think it's a reference to the fact that he kept being haunted by his inner self and fears in FF7

@DarkSonic180 hes not an emo

@DarkSonic180 isnt an emo sombody who wears dark makeup and silks alot cloud does sulk but he doesnt wear black makeup or has dark colored hair

@DarkSonic180 Not even close to emo in the original game. He's actually very arrogant and kind of a douche during the Midgard section of the game until he recovers from the life-stream to reveal he's actually a dork who tries to act cool. Crisis core and ff7 both show his true personalities. Every representation of cloud after KH basically butchered his character. What you're saying is purely false.

Yeah
