140gb preload holy moly :eyepop:
It took forever on my garbage internet but it's done now. I need to make a note to never delete this game from my system lol. Redownloading it would be a pain in the rear end.

I'm so excited for tomorrow night!

The part in the Queen's Blood tournament on the cruise ship where Red XIII puts on a Shinra guard uniform, stands on his hind legs and moonwalks made me burst out laughing :psyboom:

It's probably the most impressive looking area I've seen in a video game in a long time (aside from Alan Wake 2, of course).

I swear to loving god, if Aerith still dies in this game, I will be so sad :smithicide: She just gave a speech about how much pain was in her life but how she's finally happy because she has friends she loves and the pain was all worth it. DON'T YOU DO IT, SEPHIROTH!!!

Man, Cloud is such a dick. Aerith is pouring her heart out about how death isn't the end for us and Cloud interrupts her and says "Are you done?" gently caress you, Cloud :mad:

No Promises Await At Journey's End

I have many questions haha

What the hell could a third game involve if the second was this jam packed with story and environments? I played the original but forgot what came after this in it. I guess the war with Shinra and Wutai? And fighting Sephiroth for a third time?

Is Aerith really gone? :smith: Was that her ghost hanging around the team at the end? Did she and Cloud have a special connection that let him see her when no one else could?

Is the world really ending?

What was Zack's deal? I assumed he was in an alternate reality from the start, but how did he fight Sephiroth alongside Cloud then?

Do the Weapons come back in the final third?


What an incredible game. Definitely my GOTY, and it's only March! I'm looking forward to doing more side gigs and playing more Queen's Blood now.

Wait, so I finished the game and used the chapter select to go back to chapter 2 so I could start finishing off side quests/Queen's Blood players, but the map is fogged and the main quest markers are there. Am I going to have to basically New Game+ this to do all the side stuff? My character progress carried over from the end of the game, and looking at the map, it looks like I've already beaten the Queen's Blood players in this area.

If you want to finish side quests or other non-story stuff, use chapter select and pick ch13 (keep your quest progress from current save or all saves) to fast travel everywhere.

Remember to use the hero units. They charge by creating units of the same type.

This instantly makes the game go from "really frustrating/hard" to "pretty easy." I didn't use them for the first two matches because I didn't know how they worked and they weren't in Intermission's version of the minigame.
I have been using hero units. I just keep running into the timer and losing the match :negative:

LMAO posters ITT not wanting to believe the Turks are good guys. They literally help save the world in Advent Children too
Speaking of the Turks, I just did the protorelic side quest in Gongaga and it's revealed that Cissnei is a Turk but she doesn't say anything about it and leaves when this is discovered. Do you find out more about this later? Maybe in future side quests? I finished the main story already and it wasn't in there.

Cissnei is from Before Crisis in the same way that that Glenn guy who keeps popping up is from Ever Crisis. They're equal parts fan service and minor plot expansions.
Ah, okay. I didn't play either of those, so that explains it.

So I beat Lidrehl in Queen's Blood, got the cutscene afterwards in which he told me the card to end all cards is in Nibelheim, but I thought he would be the final QB challenger in Corel, but my map is saying 10 out of 11 players in the region defeated and I don't see another QB challenger in the region map. All the QB challengers are checked off. What do I do here?

It’s date night and oh my god this version of the play.

On the one hand, Aerith best girl. On the other hand, Nanaki best boy. On the third hand, I totally wanna pick Barret just to see what happens.

This is such a sadistic choice. :laffo:

I got Cid and Vincent for the date :shepface:

Pretty sure that's the worst choice you can get lol

e: Well, for the second date, that is. For the first I got Aerith.

What's the trick to defeating tonberrys? I'm doing the Shinra middle manager ultimate party animal side quest and I'm at the part in the Musclehead Colosseum where you have to defeat like 10 of them. I try to make my attacks fast and get away from them, and I try to dodge often, but they still seem to make my entire team fall unconscious :(

Just beat Gilgamesh :bisonyes:

That was far easier than the Odin/Alexander fight because he didn't have an attack that one-hit KO'ed my entire team. It took longer, though.
