This is annoyingly close. Every time I've come back to check, they've been within 2 or 3 voted of each other.

Wow, some harsh words in comments as usual. I'm going Noctis of course, because I lack brain cells. Either way however, I'm happy. Both are great characters.

I myself, I like him, he's my favorite video game character, and I think he's pretty cool, but that doesn't mean that I think he's the best character ever (I'm still trying to work out who that one is...)

So, when people say "overrated", they mean "his fans argue in his favor too aggressively for my liking" or "other peoples opinions of him are too high". Cause the former is not the same thing as overrated and the latter, well, opinions are opinions, and "cool" and "best" are pretty subjective terms. If someone said "Cloud could hand Noctis his ass with both hands tied behind his back", then yeah that's rating Cloud way too high, Cloud's not that strong and strength can be objectively measured.

I love the art. Noctis in this one makes me think of Sasuke, and his Sharingan with those red eyes.

Can anyone tell me why they would vote for a character who's game hasn't been released yet?

Why not people can do what they want even without a reason. The match wouldn't be very exciting if Cloud was in the lead with 100% of the votes, a match like that would be very anticlimactic.

I'd bet money that Cloud will gain a demanding lead of more than 20 or he'll just leap ahead at the last minute.

well, it's more kinda in the vein that Sonic haters are sometimes. They won't even let you express your opinion sometimes because "You are wrong, you're an idiot, Cloud is the best EVAR!!!!" kinda stuff.
Don't get me wrong, I am a Cloud fanboy, but even I see the stupidity in that kind of thinking.
