Final Fantasy 7 has a standout line up of characters - in a series already bursting with loveable faces - but Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth's director didn't hesitate when choosing a favorite child.
"This might sound cliché, but it would be Cloud for me," Rebirth and Remake's director Naoki Hamaguchi said in an interview with Danny Pena. "And the reason is quite simple: I've been on the Final Fantasy 7 Remake project for about 8 or 9 years at this point, and I've always had Cloud there, visibly. I don't think there was a time that I haven't seen him in front of me, so he's almost like family to me at this point."
