    Default What did Zack contribute to the original FF7?

    I was having a hard time figuring out how to word the title.

    Other than the information you find out during the events of Final Fantasy 7, how did Zack effect the original game?

    Here is two off the top of my head:

    -He bought Aerith's trademark pink bow in her hair

    -He named the bar "Seventh Heaven"

    -Gave Aerith the idea to sell flowers


    Add to the list.

    He was presumably the first person to make a big obnoxious hole in the church's roof. But considering Cloud didn't even do that on purpose (in other words, it wasn't actually one of the many things he did because he thought he was Zack), it's either a huge coincidence, or people are falling through there all the time.

    I can just see the "Caution, Falling People" sign there in the Church.
    My friend Delzethin is currently running a GoFundMe account to pay for some extended medical troubles he's had. He's had chronic issues and lifetime troubles that have really crippled his career opportunities, and he's trying to get enough funding to get back to a stable medical situation. If you like his content, please support his GoFundMe, or even just contribute to his Patreon.

    He can really use a hand with this, and any support you can offer is appreciated.

    Umm, without Zack there would be no VII. If Zack hadn't existed Cloud wouldn't have lived, much less thought he had done everything Zack had done and set the entire game in motion. I think Zack had a huge influence on the game.

    My name is Zach. Do you know how utterly awkward that made FFVII: CC?

    he did give cloud his old solider unifrom (the purple 2nd uniform, which is wierd because cloud claimed to be a 1st but was wearing a 2nd unifrom).
    When we dance, it looks just like Fire.

    When we sing, it sounds the same tone.

    Actually that was a uniform he found in a closet upstairs in the mansion at Nibelheim. And I'm pretty sure they said it was a 1st class'....

    yup Cloud is clearly wearing blue all through the original FFVII, unless your TV or monitor colors are thrown way off, i suggest grabbing a DVD with THX and setting it up right, but of course without the TV you can still look at his uniform in the manual & Strat Guide artwork and see it is in fact blue...

    Zack helped Cloud escape from Hojo and got him to Midgar. I'd say that's pretty important. Also, perhaps he influenced Aeris enough to result in her running away after Cloud.

    They just changed the first-class uniforms to black in Crisis Core; similarly, the Turks actually wear blue suits in FFVII--also changed for the Compilation.

    Because black is cooler!!!

    And Reno's hair went from a reddish brown to that eye-hurting neon...

    Reno's hair was always crayola red, that's one of the things i always liked about the character, i was actualy happy that they didn't make it darker for Advent Children...

    Sorry to randomly jump in, but he made cloud who he is now pretty much, thus there would be no final fantasy 7.

    Like MrsFairStrife said, he did make Cloud who he is now. Hell he got all confused and mixed up his own life with Zacks, which is something of a big part in FFVII - e.g. in Nibelheim when he thought he went in and helped people and saved people, thought he was 1st class, well..in SOLDIER at all really.

    Cloud's guilt etc also stems from Zack's death, but that's more going in to AC. Besides, Zack gave Cloud his starter weapon :P

    I am not a man
