Kitase & Toriyama hint a "Cloud" Costume for Lightning

Last week FFDream.com and Finaland had the pleasure of meeting for an exclusive interview of Yoshinori Kitase and Motomu Toriyama producers of Lightning Returns: FF XIII.

"FFDream: Cloud and Zack are the two best male characters of the FFDream Awards. Can you imagine a suit of SOLDIER first class, black or purple, for Lightning in DLC ?
(They gave two drawings of Light' in 1st Class)

Yoshinori Kitase: As you know, Final Fantasy has already offered a lot of alternative costumes, such as the black mage or white mage that have been successful. First you need to consider whether other elements of Final Fantasy are also popular with the public, we still thinking what kind of offer DLC for Lightning Returns. But if there is a strong demand for fans, we will consider the question.
Motomu Toriyama: You said that Cloud and Zack are the most popular is it?

FFDream: Yes, these are the two boys who had the most votes. Girls on Yuna, Lightning and Tifa are in mind.

No,leave FF7 alone you scum bags.

These retards at SE, no one cares about this game but the small minority that can't seem to let the saga go. Leave FF7 universe alone.

zerocrossing4107d ago

That is interesting, it's just a shame that Lightning isn't.

FFDreaman4107d ago

Totally true ! But I think that Ligh' will be more interesting in this episode !

JayBlue4107d ago (Edited 4107d ago )

The problem is that fans aren't interested in Lightning. She is one of the most boring characters in FF, and the fact that Square treats her like something they have to push through your eyes to make you like it, doesn't help either. And now they go as far as trying to give her a costume to mimic an iconic character of the franchise (Cloud have a bit of cliché, but no one can deny his merit, nor FF7's).
They could have made it with the best intentions, but fans are feed up of Lightning. SE wants to make her a popular character by force.

Root4107d ago (Edited 4107d ago )

They are really desperate like....yeah lets make Cloud a costume so they will bring in more money...I mean audiences

Anyway yeah Lightning is bland, boring and is so annoying...the only reason she stood out in FF13 is because she was surrounded by characters worse then her.

She isn't interesting and she never will be

Seriously the only people who like her are the ones who want to have sex with her or girl gamers who think she's cool because she's a MAIN female character in a FF game

Freaking idiots.

Its actually pretty smart. Cloud is popular and a costume would just give them more $$$.

Original Final Fantasy 7 - Is it Worth Playing in 2024?

Final Fantasy 7 has come back under the spotlight thanks to the release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, but is it worth replaying the original?

Got to Zacks part in 7 Rebirth. Said f it. Finishing my game in 7 og. Just got to part 2 yesterday. I also got Crisis Core... So it'll be a while before I'm back to Rebirth. I just keep thinking about it too smh, want to get back to playing it. Not till I know Zacks story though. I beat 7 og sooooooo long ago, it's crazy going through it again and remembering things.

MrNinosan8d ago (Edited 8d ago )

Got to Zacks part in Rebirth?
You mean you started the game and turned it off?
The game starts with Zack...

ravens528d ago

... Really 🤓 lol. His second part, I've played for 80hrs lmao. <---- PS5 Run time, probably not all game time. You guys know how it goes.

VIK21218d ago (Edited 8d ago )

Did you not ever play the OG FF7? After you recruit Vincent, later in the game, disc 3, return to that basement and look at the pod, there's a whole Zack story that'll trigger as a memory.... it's well hidden in the game and a lot of things regarding Zack are cleared up. FF7 Crisis Core is basically an extend feature of that hidden flashback... It took me years to discover it back then lol

@ravens52
80 hours in Rebirth by doing everything, and you should've reached Zacks story about 5 times 🤣

ravens527d ago

Ye I kno that's y I said not all gameplay time. But also I am very anal when it comes to exploring.

ravens527d ago

Not to mention fighting Titan at his full strength. Hours spent trying still haven't succeeded. Found all 3 ruins but I'ma masochist when it comes to games.

Very much so. Graphically it's dated but the story and the gameplay haven't aged a day. It's still one of my all time favourite RPGs and for me is better than Remake in some ways.

Barlos8d ago (Edited 8d ago )

It always takes me back to Christmas 1997, I got it as a gift and I was blown away when I played it. I couldn't believe games could look that good. The combination of pre rendered backgrounds and FMV really made it stand out. It definitely still has a certain charm that modern games can't replicate.

I can't imagine people will still be talking about Remake and Rebirth in 27 years.

Tapani8d ago

Fully agreed. To me the atmosphere, pacing, gameplay and music are all better than in the remake.

Rebel_Scum8d ago

Yes, play this, skip remake, start rebirth for new players.

I_am_Batman8d ago

Skip Remake? That's terrible advice.

leahcim8d ago

Remake is so amazing, pure FFVII Love, play it on PS5 please! aww the graphics the battles, the music... a dream come true.

Rebel_Scum8d ago (Edited 8d ago )

I disagree Batman

Rise of the ronin sold twice as much as Dragons Dogma 2 this week...but no articles about that. It's only news if a PS exclusive is being outsold.
