Once you think about it, it's quite true. Both: Joined a Shady Organization

Memory problems.

 

Comas.

 

Learned they weren't who they thought they were, and was living a lie.

 

Had a you're not even real period. I'm guessing Nomura really wanted a KH version of Cloud.

That's just the only kind of character square enix knows how to do

Oh yeah, Cloud had the Fusion Sword. Two swords in one, right?

 

 

Yep, you are probably right. How could I not see this? You really made my day, whatever-your-real-name-is!

 

 

Rock on!

Well, I'd be lying if I didn't think it was a little too much of a coincidence that Cloud's Compilation hairstyle looked oddly familiar...

But to be fair, that story happens a lot in video games...and prequel stories in general. I mean, it's not note for note the same, but I got heavy Days/BbS vibes from Snake Eater. Why must it always come down to killing the awesome friend/mentor character....why? T3T"

Actually it's more of SIX swords in one...technically seven if you count the combined sword as it's own weapon. So let's just say that Roxas takes one cool concept even further and Cloud is really REALLY trying to distract himself from all of his issues. X)"

Nowhere close. Roxas is a nobody and Cloud is a human.

 

I hope this topic is a joke because if so, this is in the wrong forum.

In broad strokes, yes.

lol Are you serious?

Of course, their personalities are polar opposites, their personal quests are different, and their reactions to their personal existential crises are handled much differently. 

lol Are you serious?

Yeah I am. I really am not sure if you are joking or not. If you are, then this needs to be in Random, not General Discussion.

I guess I can see those similarities on the surface, but deep down they're not all that similar at all; Cloud was far from the first thing I thought of when Roxas appeared (well, except maybe the hair... but I associate Cloud more with his spiky unicorn 'do, anyway.)

I mean, looking back at it if you played FFVII, the similarities are there.

True, but you have two completely different entities. One has a heart and one doesn't. Sure they have similar scenarios, but that doesn't mean they are "clones". Besides, it hasn't been confirmed anyway.

He's just talking about their character developments. They just happen to be similar.

This is reaching to such an extreme I don't even know what to say anymore. 

This is a joke right?! lol 

 

I've never saw them as similar besides their hair styles.

I would think it's quite obvious it's a joke.

NO, IT IS NOT A JOKE. DON'T YOU SEE?

IT'S THE ILLUMINATI TAKING CONTROL OF SQUARE ENIX.

CONSPIRACIEEEEES.

It kind of is, but if you play Final Fantasy VII and Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, there are a number of similarities in regards to character development, especially the ones Enix mentions.

I see what you mean about their character developments. I was thinking more in their personalities and how they are really different. I wouldn't really expect to see Cloud and Roxas to get along for some reason.
