PART 2 COMING SOON! Cloud Strife has a spiritual awakening theory? Might seem far fetched but this explained story arch of Cloud Strife in Final Fantasy VII the original might just strike some cords with people. It's actually an aspect I hope to see in Final Fantasy 7 Remake, my reaction to the Cloud we have seen in the trailers so far gives me great hope FF7 remake can bring out these deeper themes. In recent news the directors Nomura and Kitase have both said how they plan to evolve on characters storys, partly through new technology that can bring these characters to life. I think advent children really steered the development of original Final Fantasy VII Cloud down a different route that might make these theory seem weak. But in this first spiritual awakening of Cloud vid, I'm gonna discuss the themes of idenity, the illusion of Maya and in the next we go full throttle on Cloud's resolution. The part 2 of this OG FVII and Final Fantasy 7 Remake vids will make huge sense when you see both. Enjoy guys! Oh and spoilers all over the place for the movie, cinematics, cutscenes and endings so flee if you are spoiler free ;)
