* Hugo [[EmasculatedCuckold Cuck]]-a.[[labelnote:Explanation]]Post-release, Hugo Kupka gained a reputation among the game's fandom for being a giant simp for Benedikta, despite being played for a fool by her. Not only that, but Benedikta only ever had eyes for Cid and Barnabas, meaning that Hugo was obsessing all this time over a woman that didn't care at all for him. Furthermore, [[spoiler:he takes her death ''terribly'', and his attack on the Hideaway only results in him gaining a new enemy in Clive Rosfield]]. Finally, [[spoiler:prior to him losing his mind to Titan completely, he hallucinates seeing a naked Benedikta and Clive being physically affectionate with each other, meaning that he was mentally cucking himself]]. For all this and more, Hugo is pretty much remembered almost solely for his lust for Benedikta despite being built up as a GeniusBruiser pre-release.[[/labelnote]]
** Need a hand, Hugo?[[labelnote:Explanation ('''SPOILERS''')]]The only other thing Hugo Kupka is known for aside from an EmasculatedCuckold obsessed with Benedikta is for having [[AnArmAndALeg both of his hands]] chopped off by Clive in Rosalith, which were then replaced by two metallic hands incapable of being used like normal hands. So if he's not being mocked for his lusting over Benedikta, he's likely being mocked for the loss of both hands despite being the Dominant of Titan.[[/labelnote]]

* Square is cribbing notes from Namco. [[labelnote:Explanation]]After the reveal trailer and story information dropped, fans noticed that Clive Rosfield bears a lot of similarities to Velvet Crowe, the protagonist of the ''VideoGame/TalesSeries'' game ''VideoGame/TalesOfBerseria''. Both are the protagonists of a DarkerAndEdgier game in their franchise, which is also the sixteenth mainline series entry. Both are [[AntiHero Anti-Heroes]] obsessed with {{Revenge}}, spurned forward by the death of a little brother. Both have a color scheme that predominantly uses red and black, along with frayed and tattered clothing. And both use the power of other entities in battle -- Ifrit for Clive, and a daemon for Velvet -- which is manifested as [[RedRightHand a demonic-looking left arm]]. Some of the memes thus make tongue-in-cheek suggestions that Square Enix is doing ''Berseria'' with the SerialNumbersFiledOff, while others made Clive and Velvet into a CrossoverShip.[[/labelnote]]

* Sephiroth busts a move[[labelnote:Explanation]]A short cosplay video of Sephiroth dancing set to a funky rendition of "One-Winged Angel" is making it's way into the meme community in early 2023, mostly because of the sheer absurdity of seeing ''Sephiroth'' of all people get groovy. It's also commonly paired with Hungrybox's reaction to Sephiroths reveal in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.[[/labelnote]]

* Jack skipping cutscenes\"I DON'T GIVE A FUCK WHO YOU ARE" [[labelnote:Explanation]] In the third demo, Jack cuts off Astos's monologue and tells him to just get to the point and tell them what they want to know. Then when early copies of the game were released, a clip of him cutting off the Lich's introduction by exclaiming "I don't give a [[PrecisionFStrike fuck]] who you are!" went viral. This has spawned the joke that Jack is the kind of person who plays video games and skips the cutscenes, or that he's ''skipping cutscenes in-universe''.[[/labelnote]]
* [[Fanfic/DoomRepercussionsOfEvil "No, Jack. You are Chaos".]] [[labelnote:Explanation (spoilers]] The entire plot of the game, where Jack seeks to kill Chaos only to become it bears a hilarious similarity to the ''DOOM: Repercussions of Evil'' fanfic, where the main protagonist fights demons only to find out he's a zombie himself.[[/labelnote]]

Up To Eleven is a defunct trope
Changed line(s) 264 (click to see context) from:
* "We're here to kill Chaos!"/Chaosposting [[labelnote:Explanation]]The reveal trailer had the protagonist [[BrokenRecord constantly]] reiterate his desire to kill Chaos. [[ActionGenreHeroGuy Combined with his generic look and name (Jack)]], Chaosposting became a meme instantly. ([[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q3t5Ni1RW8s For example.]]) Further mutations would see Jack conspiring to kill Chaos [[FelonyMisdemeanor for minor grievances]] along with edits of the trailer that either placed [[UpToEleven even more focus]] on the word "Chaos" or manipulated the speed of the video every time the word was said. Another variation has him saying this for other game series with an antagonist named "Chaos" such as Castlevania or Sonic the Hedgehog.[[/labelnote]]
