    Default What exactly is Cloud's role in FFT?

    Just curious

    Vaan - "Hey, you!"
    Penelo - "Yeah, you! The one reading this sig at this very moment!"
    Vaan - "Interested in playing FFXII International Zodiac Job system?"
    Ashe - "But you have no knowledge of the Japanese language?"
    Fran - "....We could help...."
    Balthier - "That's right, Fran! Just click on Crossblades' thread on the very bottom of this signature and it will show you all license grid translations, magicks and tecks locations, and other changes that were made!"
    Basch - "Don't forget though. Swap Magic is needed to play this game if you don't own a japanese PS2."
    Vaan - "Also remember that if you played the original, you'll have an easier time playing the international version. We hope you enjoy the International Zodiac Job System experience. See ya then!"

    Just add another element of gameplay I would say. You don't HAVE to get him...it just gives you something to do after you've mastered your final party. I've never completely mastered Cloud though...got him up to level 70 though. anyway, Cloud being in Tactics has no relevance to the story line of Tactics. Perhaps it was an advertisement for FFVII? Who knows.

    Cloud's appearance in FFT is, to me, an answer to what happened to him while in the lifestream. After being engulfed in the lifestream Cloud mentioned that it took him to a far away place (or something like that) and Ivalice was the place in question... that's just my take.

    It's certainly cute to see (SPOILER) a reprise of the first time he meets Aeris.

    I think it is kind of interesting to see Cloud in the game because FF7 and Tactics both came out in 1997.

    after i get worker 8, what else do i do to get cloud? i've tried everything, well obviously not but still. I love the scene when you worker 8, it's hilarious
    When you can do everything, the hardest part is doing anything.

    Kiwi: (SPOILER)After you get worker 8, (you obviously have Beowulf and Reis right?) continue the storyline until you find the rumor about Nelveska temple and a robot. Once you get that rumor Nelveska will appear (before this you WILL come upon Aeris, buy her flower). Once Nelveska appears, go to Goug and you'll see a scene with Besrodio and a new gadget and need the Cancer stone. Now, go to Nelveska and you'll face Worker 7. (make sure to get the secret items on each of the pillars there, as this is the only time you will battle here) Once you defeat worker 7, Reis will be human. Now that thats done and you have the Cancer stone go back to goug and cloud will appear. He will then run off. Go to the city where you bought the flower to find Cloud getting into trouble, recue him and he'll join you to find a way back to his world. Ultimately you never do, but you have Cloud on your team!

    I think its something for all the major fans of FF7 to look forward to when they play the game, so more of an add for FFT. And I believe RedCydranths right, though it something a lot of other people think as well.

    I got him in my party once but after he leveled up for a little while he just ended up leaving my party! I was thinking man, I went through all that trouble to find him and he just leaves.

    The only way he leaves is if you tell him to... You messed up or something.

    I thought it was probably just a cameo to cross-promote FFVII. Personally I would have rather got a character from FFIV or FFVI in FFT.

    It would be badass to get Cecil, or Terra.
