FF7 Character Guides I really like this dudes character guide videos.. especially the "advanced" ones. Just an example but my first play through I totally missed that each characters focused attack increases stagger. I'm really digging this game even though I beat it like 3 weeks ago. I really wish they'd announce some end game DLC.

thebardyspoon posted:Beat the VR mission thanks to Werewolf of Londons patented "elemental fire on armour and then bathe in Ifrits healing beams" plan and then smashed through the rest of the game on hard. The pain points for me were hell house for a bit and then even with the ultimate accessory the rush of whisper fights at the end got a bit annoying, Cloud got knocked out of ascension 4 times in the windup and then Bahamut did megaflare about 2 seconds after he appeared which was unfortunate. All right! Good job! Hope you joined the platinum team!

I just beat the Top Secrets simulation battle too, I was getting frustrated because everything up to Bahamut was just a tedious slog that posed absolutely zero threat and then Bahamut suddenly pushed my poo poo in. Turns out the trick is to not care at all about defense and just go balls to the wall offense lol. Basically just lifted that speedrunner's build and then adapted it for someone who hasn't completely broken the game over their knee (mostly switching around a couple materia and substituting some accessories because gently caress doing half of Chapter 9 another two times just to farm Fury Rings). Didn't even bring a healing or HP Up materia lol. Got a little hairy on Leviathan but Bahamut didn't even get to summon Ifrit and I don't think his countdown even hit 6. Also Chadley's monologue afterwards followed by Cloud just saying "cool" was amazing. Now to blitz through the rest of hard mode with this accessory.

What does Barret say when Aeris dies in battle? I can only hear "That the girl who saved my Marlene?" I like the idea that he still doesn't really know who she is but assume I'm missing a word or two the beginning.

I like the idea that he still doesn't really know who she is but assume I'm missing a word or two the beginning. I think it's 'this's how you repay the girl that saved Marlene?', if I remember it right. I had kind of a rough time on the Arsenal boss, and AI Aerith seemed to always be in the line of fire when it launched plasma cannon, so I heard it plenty.

So anyway here's more Ultimania stuff. https://twitter.com/aitaikimochi/status/1259402537939030017 They're being about as coy about Sephiroth seeing the future as they were about the different Stamp dog so suspicions confirmed, lol Saying that the "through suffering, you will grow strong" line sounds like "harsh words of encouragement" is pretty interesting.

Could somebody repost the ultimania bit where it talks about how Nomura had to tone back what the staffers wanted to do with the ending? Need it for ownage purposes.

Also Aerith's "Guess it wasn't meant to be" upon dying in battle got a lot funnier/darker upon realizing what she probably knows of the timeline.

I don’t know what’s more surreal. The fact that Nomura tried to reign in the crazy. Or the terrifying idea that Nomura did succeed, and the ending was the other writers being restrained. (Don’t get me wrong. I love the crazy poo poo. I just find it amusing, that’s all)

Cross-posting this from the GBS Thread because it deserves more mockery.Dumb Lowtax posted:I finished a full watch-through now. Since I had a Chinese speaker handy, I was lucky enough to experience it without the English translation and voice acting. It was a lot of fun. I just want to revisit how loving dumb this take is in light of the ultimania guide basically stating that it was exactly the loving opposite - Nomura ended up being the one who was restraining things.

I’m now imagining that Nomura is actually that one sane guy, and that Kingdom Hearts was him failing to keep everyone else restrained. He learned from that attempt and succeed in FF7 . I doubt it, but it still funny to imagine

Kingdom Hearts is confusing yet lovable nonsense, but if anyone says they're worried about FF7R because of KH and Nomura's name, it is safe to assume that they cannot and have not formed an opinion on the game that is with listening to. Like, these people beat the game and presumably viewed the credits which showed who wrote the thing.

I've said it once and I'll say it again: people love blaming Nomura for every single thing they don't about a game, regardless of whether what they didn't like was even remotely related to his job. the guy's worst crime is adding too many belts to outfits sometimes but no somehow he's responsible for S-E's corporate structure and every bad part of a game that has ever happened. like some person in this thread or the FF thread was blaming him for things in FFXV, a game that he had no hand in whatsoever after they actually started real development on it.
