Well, it's just...I really don't know what to write about. It's because I don't even have a life--for the past while I've been scrolling through tumblr and watching the US navy do their own version of Oppan Gangnam Style (one of like 500,857,459.5 versions of it). Actually, I'm far too obsessed with kpop for my own good--Which brings us to...my obsession note of the...day? week? post? whatever...
Currently I am obsessed with: honing my skills on the piano! (just watched Piano no Mori and listening to these amazing Chinese pianists really inspired me), Joshua from The World Ends With You (he might be one of my "admired characters" posts someday. He's very unique in the way he expresses his aloofness and cynicism), sewing (found a new cosplay and I am going crazy without anything to sew!)...so recap: piano, Joshua, and sewing.
Random Tangenting Ends Here!!!
So today's character is....
Zack Fair!!
MBTI type: ESFP
He is from Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core. I think I was meant to get this game. My friend told me how much she loved it and I was like okay, sounds good, maybe I'll pick it up someday. Then, by chance, I was in gamestop and it was on sale for seven dollars. It seemed decent, I liked the two scenes I saw from it, so why not, right? Good deal, I thought.
So I fell in love with Zack pretty quickly--it's impossible not to! He's nicknamed Zack the Puppy and it's completely accurate. He is loving, loyal, energetic, but at the same time not annoyingly so or blindly so. He's just a really happy, nice person who, I can imagine would make others feel the same if he was real (well, he makes me feel happy when I play the game, but that's different lol). I admired his simple view on life and the way he'd always "chin up" when things looked bad. For everything that he'd been through, he only had one, maybe two, if it counted, breakdowns.
Also, I really loved that he just wanted to become a hero (I don't know if that sounds cheesy?), but I liked one his quotes that my friend actually decided to use for her yearbook quote: "Embrace your dreams. If you want to be a hero, you need to have dreams."
(I couldn't really find a good picture...he looks sad in this one...)
Spoilers from here on out:
Honestly, the end was heartbreaking the way he everything and everyone he once lived for in ShinRa turned their backs on him. Additionally, he could have lived, but he decided that he had to see Aerith and, once discovered, that he would protect his best friend from soldiers out to kill them for escaping the people who were illegally experimenting on them (unfair). Actually, it was so sad watching him turn from such a happy-go-lucky guy to more serious and cautious because of his circumstances.
Side Note of Sorrow:
I swear the game makers put in the DMV for the very end. I found it...artistic? Is that the right word? the way they showed you through the Digital Mind Wave how his mind and memories were slowly deteriorating and being erased from all the damage he was taking and how weak he was becoming. Then, all the flashbacks...
Needless to say, that was an emotional game for me, even the second time through. :'(
