I had never seen anything like this anywhere when I played this 22 years ago and all of it, but this part in particular, really shaped a lot of my tastes and interests.

This was what really sold me on the game. Cloud feeling counterfeit and worthless beneath it all makes him so much more than a stereotypical JRPG protagonist.

I related to Cloud on such a deep level as a girl who felt deeply empty and counterfeit after years of pretending. By the time I played it, I was a teen who'd already resigned myself to never be fully me, and yet, FF7 emphasized there is hope to one day pursue your full self.

It still took over two decades to face that trauma and the pressures to be what I was expected to be. I had no Tifa, and I wasn't forced to fix it. If anything, Cloud's arc in FF7 was wish fulfillment for me as a queer person. To actually break free of the mind control one day.
