Can't wait to see how many things I miss that are references to the spin off games, which I never touched.

I hear Part 3 will be a perfect 1:1 recreation of Dirge of Cerberus.

You wanna get through this?
I want it to be a running gag that everyone loves Stamp and Cloud is the only one lost.

Also I'm sure there's going to be a sidequest involving a Stamp superfan.

...Instead of the 1/35 Soldier there will be the 1/35 Stamp

No, part 3 is just the gold saucer (second visit)

Dio won't give you the stone unless you win 500 GP in the arcade, which now includes 10 full games

Part 3 is the North Crater. 30 hours of navigating it. Lots of jump puzzles. And if you miss the Zombie Dragon's enemy skill you gotta start from part 1 again.

Whatever part has the Gold Saucer must rival Yakuza games in the mini-games department.

Everyone immediately forgives Reeve for being a spy when they find out he created the character.

Its the nature of any text based game. I remember arguing with friends as a kid because we had like 4 different takes on how to pronounce "Kakariko Village" or "Kokiri Forest"

My favorite was in FFVIII my best friend kept arguing you pronounced SeeD as "CD" because why did they stylize the capital D that way?

Then a bit later the sorceress says "SeeDs from a garden!" and he's like "poo poo I guess you do just pronounce it as seed"

They seem to have a good handle on the characters, so I'm sure they'll at least make Cait Sith fun, even if they brush aside the sheer insanity of him being there. It was one of the dumbest parts of the original.

"There must be a traitor among us."

"Ridiculous! I trust everyone, including the ninja who has tried to rob literally everyone she's come across including us, the wolf who said he's only here until he gets home and no further, and the fortune telling cat who forced himself on our party with no adequate explanation".

A golden helix streaked skyward from the Helvault. A thunderous explosion shattered the silver monolith and Avacyn emerged, free from her prison at last.

The penultimate act ends with Sephiroth casting it and the entire last game is navigating the solar system, doing a myriad of timed side-quests, all to try and mitigate the damage. If you do well enough you can continue the battle, otherwise you have to do New Game+ to try again.

They're probably at the very least gonna have to update how Cait Sith joins the team, because he really does just go "I'm comin with you guys!" and then noclips into Cloud.

Haha one of my college buddies and I still pronounce Rydia differently and laugh about it. He says "rye dee uh" and I say "rid ee uh".

He also never played FF15 so he mispronounces Aranea when we talk about FFRK.

There are some others but whatever. As long as I know who he's taking about I don't care.

Sometimes, in a city this dirty, you need a real hero.
So i'm pretty much gonna pre-order this but can't quite decide on the standard version or the deluxe.

The soundtrack could be cool and all but it'll probably show up on Spotify eventually (or, well it'll appear on youtube presumably). I kinda want the materia as part of a completionist kind of thing though, but is that likely to come out separately later on?

The reason I preordered the deluxe was the art book and steel case.

They'll probably update Cait joining to being a side quest where you have to earn enough GP to pay off his gambling debt or something and then he'll insist on coming with you to repay the favor

Or like you'll stumble on some dudes attacking him and save him

I forgot how crazy OP you get in the original. I'm not grinding at all and everyone is level 40-ish at the Sleeping Forest, and none of the fights so far have been remotely hard. The only time I've summoned Bahamut was just to see what it looked like at 3x speed
