Fusion X. Denver Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 That was funking cool. Like I never ever would have expected Cloud to have joined.Honestly, I don't think characters like Banjo Kazooie or Simon Belmont are that far of a stretch anymore.

Shradow Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 So hype, I was yelling so much when the "L FANTA" showed up and I realized what was happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 HYPED for Cloud, although I assumed that he'd probs be the reveal with the Square Enix stuffs from the direct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shradow Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 I'm so excited for whatever they've got planned for December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Progenitor Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 Why cloud though? Like seriously. Like I get representing FF in smash, but everything from 7 on wasn't even considered home turf on a nintendo console. And why represent FF anyway? Square didn't really do anything for the game...I just feel like there are just so many better potential 3rd party / fanservice characters. Honestly I think they tried to get snake, but Konami was busy shooting themselves in the foot so Square was like "bruh remember this dude? Your fans probably will."

Cosmo. Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 I am so hyped! FINAL FANTASY IN FRICKING SMASH! I wanted that so badly. I wasn't expecting Cloud, i more expected more generic approach to a class (like a generic Black Mage) BUT THIS WORKS OUT TOO AND VERY WELL. I'm in a FinalFantasygasm. Between this and Explorers idk what i'm msot excited for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Βyakuya Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 I'm not a huge fan of FF, but I guess for fans of the series, congrats to them. In my eyes though, Cloud seems to play like a more technical and lethal Shulk. But then again I was too surprised by the reveal that I couldn't even focus on the moves of Cloud. At this point, we can expect anything now for the Direct in December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 You can argue about the quality of FF7 all day, but ultimately it is probably the most well known of the FF games. Agree that putting him with the other Square stuff would have made sense, but capping off a direct with a smash character is just too good. And the December Direct is all Smash news.

Shradow Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 Yeah, I was too excited and didn't initially notice that the December direct is all Smash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Βyakuya Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 The Direct might even reveal the winner of the ballot. No news of the ballot was posted this Direct, so chances are we'll get news of the reveal. If it is Cloud, then I'd be very surprised and disappointed though.

~British Soul~ Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 I have to admit, the former NoA employee was pretty much on the money from their hints last month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonk Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 I'm not disappointed about Cloud's inclusion. But rather, I'm just horribly confused. I don't even know where to begin with explaining my confusion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryusei the Morning Star Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 Konami is desperate to keep MGS afloat, we might see Snake again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmo. Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 Cloud makes me happy, because if i don't like the ballot winner, i still have someone new to ADORE. THIS WILL BE CLOUD'S FIRST APPEARANCE IN THIS CONSOLE GEN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No news of the ballot was posted this Direct, so chances are we'll get news of the reveal. If it is Cloud, then I'd be very surprised and disappointed though. Don't think of it as a one winner game. Odds are we're going to get a few characters from the ballot. Banjo, Sceptile, K.Rool, Inkling, and Snake are all still very live for getting in still. I'm not disappointed about Cloud's inclusion. But rather, I'm just horribly confused. I don't even know where to begin with explaining my confusion. I think the biggest confusion is that FF7 is when the franchise left Nintendo. Not to mention Cloud has never appeared in a proper game on a Nintendo system to my knowledge. At best it would be the crossover games with the assemble casts.

Sethera Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 This is pretty exciting as a fan of Final Fantasy VII. Though I'm wondering how Cloud compares in swordplay to the other swordsmen. I watched the Direct, so I know a bit, but yeah.Tbh I was hoping for someone else, but this isn't bad either.

Cosmo. Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 We'll get a Cloud amiibo for sure.. Which could be probably used woth maybe another new unannounced Final Fantasy for wii u. Dissidia 015? Yeah i'm asking for too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just unusual that they would choose a character that symbolized Square's departure from Nintendo consoles onto Sony consoles as a way to represent the series.

Though I'm wondering how Cloud compares in swordplay to the other swordsmen. I watched the Direct, so I know a bit, but yeah. Tbh I was hoping for someone else, but this isn't bad either. If I were the guess he would be a bit like Ike. They ever had them have a stare down before Ike got hit with Clouds FS which is basically just his. The interesting thing is the limit break. We'll get a Cloud amiibo for sure.. Which could be probably used woth maybe another new unannounced Final Fantasy for wii u. Dissidia 015? Yeah i'm asking for too much. That thing is going to sell like mad. I think that might be it. It's just unusual that they would choose a character that symbolized Square's departure from Nintendo consoles onto Sony consoles as a way to represent the series. As I said, 7 is likely THE biggest FF game. While its an odd fit, if they were going to pick a rep he is the best choice imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 The memes have already started, I've already seen someone PS Cloud into the pic from the simpsons with Abe yelling at the cloud, found that on Twitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's going to be slightly faster than Ike but hit more along the lines of Shulk- with a moveset as a mix of Marth and Link.

Shradow Posted November 12, 2015 Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 Since Square characters are a possibility, it'd be cool if we got Geno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
