I love how the fans are keeping the love triangle alive and well.

P.S I'm with Tifa.

Ugh, snob alert. Who else but an elitist could take a light hearted comment and make an essay length comment about it? When did I ever say anything about identifying as Cloud, presumptuous much?

And btw, I don't think of any of my childhood heroes as "toys".

/pushes them together instead

now kiss

There was no love triangle. Most people had a preference and they went with it regardless of the content of the story or characters.

Fundamental lack of respect for your toys.

Except that the original game gave you dialogue options that allowed you to influence the question, culminating in who you went on a date with at the Gold Saucer. It's hardly a lack of respect for the "toy" when the toy was specifically designed to be used that way.

(If you rejected both Tifa and Aerith equally, you got Yuffie. If you rejected them both and hadn't added Yuffie to the party, you got Barret.)

None of which matters, since Cloud up to the mid point of the game isn't really Cloud. Besides which, getting Yuffie or Barret is more complicated than that. Getting Yuffie requires completing the Wutai sidequest and backtracking to Kalm without having talked to any of the NPCs in the town and giving them answers Yuffie likes.

Rest in peace, SJ devs. Don't burn out too soon!
