maybe if he was more used and given a reason for existing, i can see it
but otherwise they put voice acting and character design and weird kinks into a piece of graphics that was essentially a filler episode
i do think roche and leslie were tacked on for anime reasons which i don't like in a game that already has 100 million characters
would've preferred more char development for others instead
imagine cloud and barrett getting more friendly and chummy instead of the whole leslie thing? imo that would've been good!

i think a good way of handling cait sith would be to have it tack on as just the cat, without the mog thing, and not as a playable character this time around
it's almost bad that they had that cameo of the cat when (SPOILER) reeve was right there in the same building!
