Why? 

Do you feel that this game should somehow be more unique despite having a 15-25 year-old protagonist who wields a giant sword and can jump several times his own height?

 

I never said the game wouldn't be cliché as fuck, just that your comparison somehow to Cloud is completely out-there. You're loco, homes.

Siegfried is also a pretty big guy in a suit of armor, not a lanky-looking teenager wearing flimsy clothing.



@WoW
It doesn't matter to me really. =P

Anyway, the video has finnaly loaded to me, Cutscenes look really odd, the gameplay looks good (you can't go wrong with turn-based battels), but seriously the character design is all kind of wrong in this, I don't know if it is the anatomy or their head design..

Why do you say that?

I'll bet they're in the same age range 15-25.
They both carry giant swords (and can hold them with one hand).
They both can jump several times their own height.
They both battle fantasy monsters.
They both wear mostly clothing instead of real armor.


Give him [character in red] Cloud's blue jump-suit thing and a 3 hour hairdresser to dye his hair and get that spikey look and I think he could do a nice Cloud cosplay.  He even already has his own giant sword.

You have just described 90% of JRPGs characters there.

I see what you're saying, but no joke, you just described 90% of all games to ever come out of Japan.

 

You said in your first post "The main character looks like such a Cloud-wannabe it isn't even funny." And you were wrong. Nothing to do with opinions or anything, they just look nothing alike.

Pretty big guy? You do realize that Siegfried is 5'5 and 110lbs right? Taki is 5'7 and 117lbs BTW.

Really?  Maybe its his recent incarnations but that armor makes him look really huge.  O.o

No, your opinion is obviously wrong.  A simple hair/outfit change and he could be Cloud.  ^_^
