Making an Activist

Nobody has to face the crisis alone. Role-playing games have a long history of challenging individualism.

In Final Fantasy VII, protagonist Cloud starts out as an individualist mercenary but gradually morphs into someone willing to work together and genuinely care about the fate of the planet. In Final Fantasy VII Remake this is more explicitly told as part of Cloud getting closer to the activist group AVALANCHE.

Though unlike FF6, FF7 still falls back on hero VS villain tropes many times.
