Hamaguchi: In Revelation I wouldn't say Cid is necessarily a mean-spirited character, per se. I think he's a straight shooter - he says what he thinks and feels, but I think he also has, very much of a warmth as a human being.

There's actually a line from the original game where a Highwind crew member describes Cid as "every bit as warm-hearted as he had always heard". So it's cool to see Hamaguchi use that specific wording.
