The Dave posted:In terms of what I don't like I think there's WAY too much foreshadowing in this game. Like they actually loving SHOWED US flashes of Aerith's loving death??? Was that necessary? Like in the original she said she has a materia and it's good for nothing. It was so casual in the original that when you first play it not knowing anything, you don't even think about it again. But this time it's like BUT IT'S THE WHITE MATERIA AERITH IS GOING TO SAVE THE WORLD WITH IT!!!!!111!!!11111 *flash flash flash to her super iconic death scene* For why? Is it necessary for Not-Really Sephiroth to show up once an hour to give Cloud those headaches? Is he contractually obliged? Not to mention the Watchmen of Fate stuff just seems so unnecessary so far, like they're there to point out everytime something ~fateful~ happens and it's like, no poo poo they're the main characters everything they do is part of the storyline therefore fate? Yeah, having seen all of these things, it was a bit too much. Cloud's headaches happen about as often as he breathes. Blueberry Pancakes fucked around with this message at 15:23 on Apr 2, 2020 |

Rude has different attack animations for when he's hitting Cloud compared to when he's hitting Aerith. He'll combo attack Cloud and giant throw him, but in comparison he uses Sleep spells on Aerith and tries to knock her out with one of those anime neck chops.

Elephant Ambush posted:So if this is actually a sequel masquerading as a remake, then where/when does it take place? Is this all in Cloud's head? Is he in a coma again? Is this all a dream? Clearly Ansem from Kingdom Hearts showed up in Midgar and taught Sephiroth how to travel back in time by discarding his body. Armed with that power, Sephiroth is now changing the past to ensure his victory, while Genesis and Weiss return to the past as the dementors to try and correct the changes Sephiroth is making. I don't believe a word of that, but it sounds like the kind of nonsense Nomura would pull.

Reno Boss Fight Why the gently caress does nobody ever try parrying him with Punisher Mode when he's clearly designed to dodge attack spam? Rude Boss Fight I love how he hits Aerith with her own bodyguard. Onmi posted:

Making the victim Cloud or Tifa instead would ruin Cloud's identity reveal, though.

Yeah, the context I saw leading up to things didn't make it clearer: Seemingly after the Motor Ball fight, Sephiroth appears and Aerith tries to tell him off a bit to no avail. He then opens a portal of darkness while the Dementors cover Midgar, and Aerith uses some kind of magic to turn it into a portal of light while talking about how they need to change the present and themselves or some such nonsense. They then enter the portal and then the above clip happens. It really looks like Darkside from Kingdom Hearts just shows up and starts wrecking poo poo.

Blockhouse posted:For context he's not the "real" final boss. Arbiter of Fate is. Sephiroth is a one-sided unwinnable stomp fest where he only doesn't kill Cloud because he still needs him to bring the Black Materia to his body in North Crater. Makes sense. And also, there's this picture. Is Stamp supposed to be a cartoon dog based on Zack?

The thing I find the funniest about the remake is that everyone hated the dumb ghost things when they were first revealed, and then Cloud and Co. kill them and it's revealed that all they wanted was to keep the events of Final Fantasy VII the same instead of letting Nomura do whatever the gently caress he is.

Aerith is supposedly supposed to be a play on the word "Earth", likely based around the fact that she was originally designed to be a Geomancer.

I heard that there's supposed to be a scene where Cloud and Co. come across the entryway to Deepground and the ghosts show up and just usher them the gently caress away from there. Does anyone know where I can see that scene? Because it sounds hilarious.

I'm sure someone shared this already since I'm late to the party on everything, but VII Remake was intended to have remixed music from other games. This remix of Kefka's Theme going unused is a goddamn crime.
