Question about Cloud's Responses and Personality

[jimmyoneshot]

I am wondering whether at the start of the game does Cloud inherit Zacks personailty in the way that he acts for example we learn through the course of the game that Zaxk was a confident "Ladies man" so would Cloud, having inherited Zacks personality act in the same manner ie cocky, arrogant or ignorant and flirt with any woman he comes across, only be nice to certain individuals such as Aeris or Tifa etc. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
In my post on the other sites I posted this list of questions/events that the player is given throughout the game in relation to Cloud and asked how Cloud under the influence under his Zack personality (If he did indeed inherit Zacks personality) would respond. <o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>

I know that Cloud initially is very cold but it appears that Square have put in these responses for a reason and I am just trying to understand Cloud's true personality. I get the impression that he only initially warms up to Aeris and Tifa, am I right in thinking this. Also does his attitude change later on such as when Avalanche are dying on the pillar would he treat them with the same cold responses or be more sympathetic towards them.<o:p></o:p>

jimmyoneshot, we don't allow quadruple posting here. I don't know what you were trying to do with all those ":p" but it's making your posts incredibly hard to read and also impossible to merge (literally).

So please re-do your post without all those ":p" and start a new topic. For now I'm gonna close this. PM me if you have any questions.
