Geek Fight - Ep. 3 - Squall vrs. Cloud

[Aschen Windseer]

GEEK FIGHT!

Welcome to Geek Fight!
This is a semi-regular thread around here, where we pit two characters, items, events or concepts from the different Final Fantasy games against each other. So, let's start out with our rules.

Rules of Geek Fight
1 - Each Geek Fight will take the time needed. No more, no less. You can change your vote, though. Votes get tallied when they do. Get over it.
2 - If you can't decide, there will be a third option. This option is always awesome.
3 - In your post, you must voice and defend your opinion. This may include nifty images. Or fan art. Or insults against the other sides progenitors.
4 - To defend your opinion, you must use Geek Logic. Geek Logic consists of any arbitrary opinion you like, as long as it backs up your preference. This means using any version of the concept, going after any particular aspect, or just plain random thoughts.

Well, I wanted to kick off Geek Fights with this one, so I've been keeping it up my sleeve for a while. Why? I can't quite remember right now. I like exploring the small differences.

SQUALL VRS. CLOUD

[Griever]

Oh look, one I can vote in! XD

Okay, first of all, I love both of them. Really. But the reason my vote is going to Squall is because FFVIII is the game that got me into the series. It was my first FF (...sort of, I played IX first but only the very, very beginning), and right away, I loved Squall. It would be a really, really bad idea to underestimate my love of that game in general...it can be kind of frightening. Ask anyone who's known me long enough. XD

Not that I'd say it's my FAVORITE, because I love every game in the series that I've played. But it's got nostalgia associated with it that only IX can (almost) equal for me.

BESIDES THAT SQUALL IS PRETTY. :B

I hate both.

If FFVII stopped with just FFVII I would have picked Cloud. He got ruined as a character.

If Squall stayed badass instead of the pansy ass that Rinoa turned him into, then he would have won hands down.

This one goes to Cornholio.

[Kupo]

I never played eight (refer to the tragic tale of my glitchy disk) and I love the bit at the start were cloud is a total ass hole. I actually like him as a character but not when he's being whiney. TBH i only love him so much because I just completed crisis core and the stuff zack said to him in the final scene made me want to cuddle him.

Additional viewing material, to help everyone come to a decision!

As for me, I hate both. Squall is emo, and Cloud is overrated.
And the Great Cornholio only wants TP. For his people. They have no bungholes. So, he's a valid hero, and gets my vote.

[Kuja]

...I just. I just no.

Just no.

I don't know what else to say~.

[Hiko]

I'm voting Cornholio. I disliked VII, and didn't get far enough into VIII to get a good feel for Squall. Since my only main recollection of him is as Leon in Kingdom Hearts, it's hardly fair to vote for him based on that merit. :x

Voting ends Friday, so get your votes and suggestions for the next Geek Fight in!

[Kupo]

I can't believe cornholio is winning =O i do like that video though!

[Aschen Windseer]

Well, and now for a speech from our winner.


Th-th-th-that's all, folks!
