Ah, I have never played any of the spin-off games.  I did see AC, though.  Which was totally... weird.  Especially Bahamut with his perfect, pearly-white human teeth.  Haha.
 
I never understood in Advent Children why Cloud became extremely mopey and self-absorbed even though his attitude changed in the game FF7. It just seemed strange that he was still upset about Aerith's death even though he completely understood why. You'd think he would be happier that all his friends care about him so much.
 
Mopiness (it's a word now) seems to be related to geostigma. Even though it's not a symptom in and of itself, severe loss of energy is. I don't doubt that Cloud would've felt upset about being useless against the suffering around him and even in him.

Advent Children had a lot of problems, but that was one of the few things in it I thought made sense.
 
How would Cloud be useless, he was probably at least level 70 after the game plus with all the training he does. I'm pretty sure he was level 99 by the time of Advent Children. I thought Cloud felt useless because he let Aerith die until he realized that Aerith needed to die to save the planet. I guess Cloud wasn't as strong as I thought he was since he completely copied Zack's personality and didn't even realize it but I think that's what makes him more human to me rather than someone as callous as Sephiroth.

I disagree. The whole ending of VII was about his resolution. "We've done all we could, let's go home proud".  Those are Cloud's own words.  They had saved the planet, and Cloud had gone through an entire story of change and self discovery.

Advent throws all that character development down the toilet, turning him into something that doesn't even come across as the Cloud from the end of the game.

Also, Cloud was not level anything in Advent Children.  A level is for the gamer, not the story.  The same way that Rufus did not literally shoot cloud with a shotgun, and Cloud didn't go collecting balloons on the Great Glacier.  :)

Level can just be used as a term to gauge skill so it makes sense that he would be more skilled which would be why he was able to defeat Bahamut so easily.
 
I've watched this some time ago... I love the Yoga achievement and wish to earn this everyday on my way to work... ;)
