Barudak posted:Nobody has ever actually played FFVII, theyve only learned the plot from the spinoff titles and from fanfiction stories To be fair, if you played FFVII as a young kid or you weren't paying attention, I can see how you'd miss that plot point. It doesn't amount to a whole lot.

Death of the authorquote:Kitase, whose résumé is far too long to list in one paragraph but includes director credits on Final Fantasy VI, Chrono Trigger, and Final Fantasy VII, was in Seattle last week for PAX West to talk about his most recent game, Mobius Final Fantasy. Of course, as I told him, I couldn’t resist the urge to ask about his older work, too.

quote:When Kitase and his team first started development on Final Fantasy VII, he added, they saw some other company give a survey to little children that asked if they thought people come back to life after they die. “A lot of the kids actually said yes to that question,” Kitase said. “There are all these fantasy stories where, [for example], the princess would come back from death with the kiss of her prince. For children, it was normal for them that people would come back to life. And we wanted to question that idea and thought. So we wanted to depict that there is weight to life, and just put weight on the loss as well to life, and that’s where we all started with Final Fantasy VII. That was our core concept.” This owns lmao.

What the gently caress Ultimecia being Rinoa is like the most obvious reading of the plot of ff8 how is it not true

The whole "Gogo was Daryl" is easily debunked by the Gogo mimic character archetype being introduced in FF5 anyway. It only came about because FF5 was skipped over and the west didn't have that previous game as a reference. Like, of course Gogo the mimic in FF6 is a nod to the same thing in FF5; having different stories but similar game concepts/mechanics/terms/etc. is a foundation of the FF series.

Calaveron posted:What the gently caress Ultimecia being Rinoa is like the most obvious reading of the plot of ff8 how is it not true Because for all we loving know Ultimecia could live a million years in the future because the game goes out of its way just to repeatedly say she's from the nebulous "future," which of course encompasses everything rfom one second from now until the end of time. And although it's easy enough to read Sorceresses are immortal from the game's continued insistence that a Sorceress must pass on their power before they die, that is not the case. Even still, R=U is the only way Ultimecia has any loving character and it also makes Rinoa more interesting too so I am all for this theory.

The whole theory came from the fact that both Rinoa and Ultimecia have as much depth as a card-board cut-out and people tried to come up with an explanation that made both of them relatively interesting in some shape or form.

More FFs need to be made that intentionally ruin the ideas of children. A FF game where you learn Santa isn't real and instead a national holiday is a secret mass economic brainwashing tool, etc.

You're not special children. None of you are. Some of you just get lucky by being at the right place and the right time.

TIME KOMPRESSION Ultimecia's C-to-K accent (when there's a C in her own name no less) was probably the weirdest thing about her and that's saying something.

Breaking the fourth wall only he can see. That way he gets to be all WACKY and LOLRANDOM while writers can still have a canonical reason to ignore him and what his existence means in the greater scheme of things.

When the fandom can come up with a more interesting and compelling perspective with the meager pieces offered to them, you really gotta wonder what that says about the narrative that was given and presented by the supposed professionals.
