The thing that hits me so close to home in the case of FF7 is that Cloud faked being cool and confident and played it off well enough to convince and influence others. Meanwhile he is more fucked up and the least self consious than anyone else. All because he lied so well that he began to believe the lies himself.
I do this all the time. I always do this when I meet new people to make myself seem more interesting than I believe myself to be. I get lost in my own bullshit and get called out on it. Then I am forced to admit I'm a 29 year old celebate who spends all his time playing vidya and browsing this god forsaken place. I want to have friends again /v/, but I can't stop fucking myself over. Just like Cloud.
Does anyone else have this feel or should I just an hero?

Not really, as you can at least pass for cool some of the time which means you don't actually have autism.

Cloud in FF VII was a mostly regular guy who had a few genuinely depressing moments. The "angsty emo" caricature of him is a meme derived from Advent Children
>>384527741Whatever.
Cloud may have been mentally fucked up but what's admirable about him is that he manned the fuck up and never gave up

Well...
FFIV (Cecil had very bad moments about killing innocent people)
FFVI (Celes really is the most depressing girl i saw in a game...)
Max Payne (Well, the title says all)
GTAIV (Niko Bellic always see the world as gargabe... like me)
Metal Gear Saga (all the protagonists, incluided Raiden, killed all... incluiding their dreams)

Honestly, you should just stop coming here. There is honestly no reason to be here if you have a job. Just go live your life. Save money for retirement and any free time you have spend it doing physical shit. Video games are shit compared to real life stuff.

I'm with you, he's a relatable character in a number of ways. I'm also 29 and just a sack of shit.
