Sit down, Squeenix. We're having a talk.

No, no don't get all concerned, I'm still throwing my money at your stupid games. Even the ones whose plots and character designs still look really dumb to me.

This talk is about something else. It's about, well, Cid, of all things! Yes, one of your old, simple, and often overlooked staples. About something that shouldn't make people concerned at all. But here we are, I suppose, so I'll continue. Cids are great. They occupy a special place in my heart, though to be fair I don't think the Oglop or Robin Williams look-alike Cids are invited there. But I've forgiven you guys for those two, because on a whole, Cids are great.

Don't get me wrong, this isn't about you guys innovating your Cids. XII had two Cids. We've had a variety of Cids over the years, and the difference between them make them fun. No one is going to assume that VI and VII Cid are the same guy, in any way! But you see, there's innovation and then theres, ahem, this. Squeenix, there are acceptable limits to this. We both know this.

This? This, Squeenix, is not a Cid. I shouldn't have to tell you guys this, but apparently you've taken it that far, and now I must.

Just give him some charming other name and we can both be happy and on our way. And I can stop this dirty feeling every time I look at him and catch myself wanting to lick my screen.
