His death is hilarious.
As a character, he's okay. He's weird and meta in a game where the weirdness is part of the fun. Even when he comes back from the dead, his dialogue pop-up just appears in the corner of the screen--"bad time?"--in a way that plays with how the game handles in-game cutscenes.
I wouldn't say I'm passionate about him, but I don't dislike him and I think he is an essential part of the game. Chose not to vote.

I didn't vote, since I don't really like or dislike Cait Sith. I like how he adds variety to the cast of characters, but his limit breaks suck, so I never use him in battle.
Quina, on the other hand, is a boss whom I use as often as possible in my party.

I completely agree. I always found Caith Sith a fascinating character, and sympathized with Reeve who could only share the adventures with all the other members remotely.
As in in won't be optional in the Remake obviously but part of the story instead
I don't really care for the cat, it's whatever but that big mog is so off putting to me. I hate looking at it, get it away from me.
Given how much Wutai was referenced in Remake compared to the Midgar section of the original, the idea Yuffie doesn't show up in the next parts of remake as a mandatory party member this time seems laughable
Nah, Square is going to give Cloud a fourth possible waifu. Too many Yuffie fans out there.
I can't relate, that just seems like not paying attention to me. There are plenty of scenes that transition directly from Cait Sith being with the party to Reeve being in Shinra HQ. There's even a scene where Heidegger and Scarlet discover Reeve talking to the party through Cait Sith and have him arrested.
It's also made clear very early on that he's at least as important of an executive to Shinra as Heidegger, Palmer, and Scarlet are, being the only ones that attend President Shinra's meetings (aside from a brief visit from Hojo).

Yeah which is what I said. They are optional in the original won't be optional in the Remake. Of course they will be in. Remake is setting up Wutai to likely be a pretty big portion of whichever part it will be in and Vincent already has all his lore they just need to not have the Dirge Hojo x Lukretia shit

I feel like she's definitely too young for them to make her a waifu candidate in the remake. In the original, the gold saucer date with her is mostly played as a joke about how uncomfortable Cloud is with her advances due to the age difference, but I think that sort of joke wouldn't fly today
I like his character, but in the couple of times I've 100%'d FF7 he was easily the worst part of playing and not someone I use when just playing through casually.
I liked him in the spinoffs.

Fuck him.
I would've been okay if they deleted him from this continuity.
Vincent is the character I want to see.

Cait Sith is up there with Red as my favourite fFVII party members. i love him lol.
I wasn't really a fan of the Scottish accent on AC though. It felt a bit too on the nose, and I never got that accent from the original.

You don't deserve the username and avatar quote >:(
Although I'd pay anthing for Sephiroth to say that to him in the remake.
I love Cait Sith/ Reeve and I'm looking forward to see how can they improve on them in the remake.
Fuck Yuffie though.

Not really. I do like the idea of a character like Reeve in the larger context of the story and all, but that goofy-ass giant Moogle thing looked so dumb compared to every other character even in the original. His limit breaks were pure trash too. Worst character to use in battle by far.
I can't even picture how they could make the visual of that as a playable character work in the Remake tbh.

Yes I did.
And I cannot wait to see how they will handle the design in the Remake and try to not make it feel like out of place.

Cait Sith's field model back in the day through a CRT tv was unintelligible and I think lead to confusion, probably along with either bad translation or just poor explanation, as to what he was and is a factor in how the game always looked rough.
When I played the game again years after the fact at a higher resolution and a wiki I was able to enjoy his character better and I do like him.

Really not going to put a "meh" voting option huh?
Sounds like the type of conversation a Sith would instigate...

i'm ideologically opposed to including such options in my polls
lol yeah, I had no idea what to make of him when I was a kid.Cait Sith's field model back in the day through a CRT tv was unintelligible and I think lead to confusion, probably along with either bad translation or just poor explanation, as to what he was and is a factor in how the game always looked rough.

i disagree. i think cid is an integral part of the party
cait is the only mandatory member that feels superfluous, and vincent and yuffie were optional anyway so it's hard to make them feel essential
Yeah I did like him. Oddball character but he was a fun enough addition. Yuffie and Vincent can do one though. Couldn't stand either of them.
Keep in mind, this came out a long time ago and the people that played it in my age range were maybe 11. And they don't really give Reeve much to work with, he just sorta shows up sometimes and has some smaller scenes late game. I bet you I could talk to most of my friends that casually played through and they won't know who Zack was, lol. Weirdos like us live in a bubble and this game had broad appeal.
