my only experience with Noel (not counting the XIII-2 demo I largely forget) is in dffoo and he was pretty cool in the chapter he was introduced

background on omnia, good guys are summoned into the world by Materia. Except Noel was summoned in the middle of a vast desert he wandered alone, "It could have been days, months... No, years even."

There Cloud of Darkness starts speaking to him as a voice in his head for accompaniment, while she warns him of her "abominable" visage and that she will become his enemy in time but Noel's like nah your kindness has kept me alive to this point

He's eventually found by Serah/Celes/Locke/Paine/Eiko, when hearing his story Celes relates to Serah's explanation that he was a lone survivor in a desolate future world. Next scene with the party shocked at how Materia carelessly left him in the desert where Noel then talks about the voice who kept him company and the trivial things they talked about.

It was a p cool introduction and I've had no reason to dislike him yet! he also recently got re-released with a pretty wild infinite looping mechanic when teamed with Cor
