the real romance is the cloud + sephiroth one. Nomura is working his way toward retconning the original ffvii by saving aerith AND redeeming sephiroth. cloud and sephiroth retire to a chocobo ranch and raise many different colors of chocobo. shinra is destroyed. the end

nine-gear crow posted:Oh the world we'd be in if instead of reacting to the revelation of his creation with "It is my destiny to rule the planet", Sephiroth instead went "I am going to burn Shinra to the ground" and focused his rage on the real cause of everyone's problems. I mean he kinda does! Ruling the planet is just the way he gets to maintain his only real emotional defense against being an unloved test tube baby, that he's a Super Special Boy. But his entire deranged quest is definitely aimed at both Showing That Little poo poo Who Stabbed Me in the Back I'm Not Owned, and making sure Shinra Finds Out for all the loving Around. He just thinks Shinra is the ultimate expression of human mendacity. Hell it's not even clear Meteor would actually wipe out humanity, just industrial civilization. Granted, that's still genocide and a horror beyond compare, but it's not unreasonable to conclude Sephiroth thinks he's genuinely protecting the planet and also once and for all being the Specialist Boy. Ytlaya posted:I interpreted that more as him just not knowing how to react. Like he knows what happened was bad but doesn't feel a lot about it. I don't disagree that Sephiroth was detached, but I think it's more poor socialization than anything else. He does seem to care about other people, he's just really kind of weird and bad at showing it. Jetrauben fucked around with this message at 21:02 on Feb 11, 2024 |

In the original, he seemed to be almost completely under her control, or at least they were working toward a shared purpose, though he may be influencing her to make him a god (by wiping out all life) rather than just doing what she was sent for, which was to wipe out all life. In the EU stuff, he's in the driver's seat and she's just a force of nature he's manipulating. I took it as ]Sephiroth actually took over Jenova and was controlling it. The shapeshifting meat monster is just following Sephiroth's will.

I got the impression the Sephiroth from both most of FF7 and Advent Children was basically "Jenova, but Sephiroth has such a powerful ego that he took the reins (but was still heavily influenced by Jenova)." So in a sense a mix of the two beings. And I think the Remake games might be leaning into this with the "watashi vs ore Sephiroth" stuff, which implies that the events of Remake somehow freed Sephiroth from Jenova's influence (or at least directly implies some fundamental difference between "the Sephiroth who talks with Cloud at the very end" and "the Sephiroths seen earlier in the game").

Genesis had a good reason to go crazy though, though (and is it really even crazy when following the guidance of the play somehow actually results in summoning "the Goddess" and curing you, lol). And I prefer him to Angeal's whiny "am I....a monster??" stuff.

FFVIIRebirth demo is weird because replaying one of my favorite parts of one of my favorite games of all time is literally breathtaking but then there's stuff like the part where you kind of have to awkwardly move a mako vacuum into place to proceed that are so obviously padding that I can't help but think "I can probably wait a couple months until I finally finish LADIW to play this" like I just know there's gonna be an overly complicated chocobo ranch minigame that's going to piss me off just like it did in the original 20+ years ago

The mako vacuums biggest crime was how slow it moved even with R2 speeding it up. Guides for any "complicated" minigames will have guides up within a day. Just have the birds gently caress

From what they've shown I don't think there's going to be chocobo breeding. It looks like the chocobos are just unlockable open world traversal enhancers.

I was so annoyed in Intermission that you keep getting new units for their little RTS minigame way after the point you can still play it without doing some NG+ bullshit

SettingSun posted:Breeding opened pretty late in the original. Maybe in part 3. You could breed starting pretty early on, you just couldn’t catch the right kinds of chocobos to make the special colors until later in the game. I think you need a Black Chocobo and an Excellent regular one to make a Gold one but you can’t get the Excellent ones until you get to Mideel.

How else is Cloud supposed to process the death(?) of Aerith/Tifa/Barret/Yuffie/Zack/Roche/Rude/Johnny/Don Corneo/Dio/Tankceratops without hours and hours of making chocobos gently caress? Oh right snowboarding.

Can rebirth do one thing and kill off all the Dirge of Cerberus people because their appearance in the Yuffie DLC was the low point of the entire game. Holy gently caress do they suck.

Playing through the Yuffie DLC and I just remembered that they do not have Sonon playable, but they also have ability requirements such as "Land a finishing blow" for him. So Syncro Attacks count towards that? Or do I basically need to baby the AI into doing it?
