Flopsy posted:Cloud's arms are literally nightmarish in motion. Too much dehydrated defined veiny muscle on very thin arms. Also the model had very sunken eyes. It's like somebody said earlier: he really does look like a dude who just got dragged out of a test tube and just woke up from a mako poisoning coma. Other than the hair, I actually think the old model looked better, for this very reason.

guts and bolts posted:But to pretend that, like, oh man Tetsuya Nomura is just this really cool dude and there's no reason to be suspicious that he's diving way into excess on a videogame project that he runs, it's all Square-Enix's fault and the suits and poo poo -- that's pretty disingenuous. every individual thing you're complaining about is the result of the work if hundreds if not thousands of people and the idea that this one single person is responsible for how offensively bad you think all of these video games are (in reality they range from okay to pretty good) is a very Online opinion bereft of value among adults

FFXII never clicked for me because every other Final Fantasy game starts in media res with a story that immediately hooks me and gives me a bunch of likable characters in the first ten minutes or so, then FFXII comes in and has me do Vaan's chores for like an hour and a half I gave up around the part where you get to the Viera village, desperately hoping for something resembling an interesting plot to show up, and it just... doesn't

to be fair the original also has Sephiroth appearing in Midgar repeatedly and it also never explains who he is, and people expecting otherwise in the remake was kind of unreasonable

Sapozhnik posted:“I won’t completely come out and say that it is the same world,” said Kitase. “However, Shinra in FFX-2 was created by [Kazushige] Nojima, the scenario writer, and when he thought him up, he thought it might be good if people would imagine that after a few years after the story of Final Fantasy X-2, that person Shinra will grow up and start the Shinra company. So that is something that he did hint in there. That being said, I’m not gonna say that it’s the same.” on this note - in Remake, did anyone else think that Shinra's depiction of the Ancient civilization had vaguely Spiran architecture and clothing

stev posted:What sucks about it? It gives the game room to breathe with open explorable areas if they're going to continue with 7R's tight focused areas, I'm cool with that if they're going to give us XV style huge open map with things and you get to cruise around and listen to your characters banter with each other, that might be good if they're going to put me in a small room with the exit on one end and a chest with a potion on the other and surrounded that small room with a big skybox so I can pretend I'm outside and "exploring" then no I'd rather not that please thanks

so I guess Sephiroth didn't come back to change things but is maybe instead changing things in the future from the past?

gredgie posted:The question would be, why would he not trip out exactly like he did in Nibelheim if he suddenly becomes aware of how he was created? Since, he flipped out just thinking he was part-Cetra, if he can see how things unfold he's probably aware that actually, he was injected with a random alien. But apparently he's okay with it? we all knew sephiroth, from the lifestream, basically overrides jenova with his own consciousness or will or whatever: maybe, now, the opposite is true, and the jenova is just consciously using the image of sephiroth to accomplish its goals I mean that wouldn't really be out of line with what both the original and the remake say about how jenova operates

Neddy Seagoon posted:It is and was from the beginning. They only broke it up because of the time involved making it. or maybe they broke it up because they specifically intended to tell a larger story spread over multiple installments, something that in media that is often referred to as a "series"

Neddy Seagoon posted:Still got to have somewhere to escalate to for later entries in the series though. the beats of the original game are still escalations from this game's ending and they could also do literally anything new and different maybe try being excited that fun new things are happening Beefstew posted:Almost everywhere else I've looked has been overwhelmingly negative. how vociferously people complain is often not related to how many people are complaining it's like how people constantly poo poo-talk kingdom hearts and make a big nerd shibboleth about how terrible it is even though it's perfectly good series that's extremely popular case in point: the "third" one that loud stupid nerds have been screeching about for a year is also the best selling of the series and every single person I know that played it that doesn't have a loving neogaf account or whatever really liked it

I'd like to hear some suggestions about would have been a better ending from people who didn't like it - do you think it should have just ended after the bike minigame? If we assume they had to have a climactic boss after that, what do you think would have been more satisfying?

Or give us a 1v1 sword duel between Cloud and Clone Seph that doesn't lose itself in its scope. These are probably the most reasonable suggestions, the former is what I would have said.

Beefstew posted:All I'm saying is that this is happening, and the ending isn't getting showered with sunshine and rainbows everywhere, contrary to what the atmosphere in here might be. and all we're saying is that the people who it's happening to basically don't matter and nobody cares "I skipped the game because my favorite youtuber had a meltdown over it" might just be the world's least interesting opinion Mulva posted:It's either good or it's not, internal consistency of threat has never been a part of the package. yeah I feel like the people who are now complaining about "power levels" are also the people who twenty years ago were asking questions like "why didn't they just use a phoenix down on aeris? this is dumb, there's no consistency"

cock hero flux posted:basically the problem with the ending of FF7R for me is that they've put a big dumb JRPG ending about 15% of the way into the plot of a JRPG, so it feels like it's out of nowhere A New Hope still has a climax even though it's part one of three of the story

Beefstew posted:It's hard to nail down specifically why this may be, but my best guesses are a). because it becomes visually reminiscent of Advent Children I've said this before but Advent Children is a lot better than its internet reputation implies Beefstew posted:I find it a lot easier to forget how dumb it is when Cloud slices through a helicopter because I've been conditioned to hate Shinra and I want to see him slice the helicopter in half. I think that because we have the characters fighting against a concept that, textually, we might have difficulty empathizing with, that it becomes harder to ignore the absurd stuff. I think it makes some people emotionally distant to the events on screen and prevents them from enjoying otherwise over-the-top dumb action. maybe this is why I liked the ending so much, because I literally fight a giant composed of the concept of entitled tasteless nerds cock hero flux posted:also there really is no way that george lucas actually wrote or had even really thought of much beyond a New Hope at the time, that's all very transparently bullshit he came up with later there is a significant amount of evidence that heavily confirms this is not the case but that's a whole other nerd shibboleth to tackle which has whole threads dedicated to it on this very forum

there are enough hints and clues and references that it's fair to assume that AC, BC and CC all remain canon so in answer to your question, yeah probably the interesting thing about them expanding Avalanche to different cells is that, as a result of that benefactor, you're likely going to come into conflict with another Avalanche cell or cells in subsequent entries

Nail Rat posted:One thing is for sure. Anybody who hasn't played the original will be saying "who the gently caress is Zack and why do I give a poo poo" obviously it's impossible that part 2 will contain any exposition that explains who zack is, as we've all accepted the reality that part 2 is going to be forty straight hours of the fort condor minigame presented with no dialogue or context
