identity crisis old school

[tamlin_kitsune]

there's an interesting discussion that just started over at ff7_oldschool regarding Cloud's identity crisis at the start of the original video game.  The whole 'how much was Cloud, how much was conscious decision, how much was Jenova cells, etc.'.  Since I know I've heard theories and speculation from some of the writers on here before I figured I'd give the head's up.  I always like reading as well as offering my own theories and this looks like it'll be a fun discussion.

from the labs to the train station and farther

Thanks for the sharing hun, it´s nice to have you back. It´s a rather confusing topic, and my lenguage and time barriers are probably not helping, but here´s my little input, if you wanna read it: http://community.livejournal.com/ff7_oldschool/19259.html?thread=313915#t313915
See you around!

I thought you explained it very competently, especially for such a confusing topic. Of course, I think the fact that the game is so easy to play and enjoy and yet, afterward, looking back on it, there are so many points that really challenge you to think, is part of the reason the game's lasted so long and keeps us coming back. Poor Cloud alone is enough to fill discussion forums for years to come - lol. It's amazing how such leggo shaped people can manage to catch and hold our hearts, isn't it?
