Dumb Lowtax posted:It seems like your differing reactions come down to differing levels of trust in this corporation (Square Enix) to not betray you or mess up some key aspect of quality.... including story writing I went into the game with the expectation of being disappointed, and then while playing it I wasn't, and was surprised by that, and then by the end of it I was disappointed in the way I had expected to be when I went into it. It was just a very sudden change because man I was really feelin' it for a while there. Basically the game was 95% exactly what I wanted and 5% exactly what I absolutely didn't want, but that is a big 5%. Heath fucked around with this message at 05:08 on Apr 20, 2020 |

Solice Kirsk posted:Sounds good. I'm gonna predict they kill Tifa instead of Aeris this time. Just really throw it all against the wall and give all the old fans the same sort of moment from their youth. What if they kill whoever you've bonded with the most by some arbitrary metric, like in Dragon's Dogma.

I know it was a joke but I want this feature very bad. I want to feel the same sense of loss over Aerith during that scene, but instead it's Don Corneo.

The picture for the Cait Sith theme CD shows a cat that actually looks like a cat and not an anthropomorphic nightmare so I'm actually kinda excited for him in part... 2?

FF7 thread blows up in the early AM on the east coast. Just finished the colosseum earlier today and going to take another stab at Leviathin before beginning the end game but finals are also coming up. I’m looking forward to seeing how they deal with that weird part of the game when you have to position troops to defend a mountain to guard an egg or something weird. I dunno just a weird out of place part of the game from what I remember from playing it when I got to sephiroth but couldn’t beat him at 7 and when I got like 65ish % through at 16. Also going to be interesting to see if they have that weird Junon marching mini game and chocobo breeding.

If the fort condor minigame is still a thing I hope you can still cheese it by putting a bunch of dudes way at the bottom right away to kill the first enemy that spawns and win pretty much instantly Jk it'll be totally different this time around and might actually be fun??

I've played the original so many times I think I've done literally everything there is to do (which is a LOT) except for going back to Fort Condor every time you can earn a new item from playing that awful minigame (which is a LOT)

I hope they just leave out Fort Condor entirely, tbh There are plenty of other ways to show how evil Shinra is across the rest of the world.

Not looking forward to paying $60 to run around Cosmo canyon just to solve a mystery(?) that could have been solved by just looking at the top of the cliff. How they handle optional characters is going to be interesting. Going to guess not very optional but watching how they are going to divide up game time between the full party will either be really good or super annoying. Edit: I bet that all the weird bumfuck towns that spotted their planet will still be in the remakes and they will serve as hubs to rest and restock as you traverse most of the game on foot/chocobo through slightly larger than Midgar pathways.

If they really want people to hate Sephiroth he should fall from the sky and force the "1/2 HP" slot over and over in the Battle Arena. edit: I'm trying to get Omnislash right now and I'm just constantly landing on this and it's making me mad at video games!

You can cheese the slots by mashing square because the wheel stops spinning when the menu is hidden. Makes it super easy to get what you want with a bit of practice. This also applies to Tifas limit

I hope the next instalments have a branching story with several endings depending on in which order you visit the various world map locations compared to the original. also https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8VMC01M-wbE&t=980s

Game is good. The ending gives the remake potential to actually be interesting instead of re-reading the same 23 year old book. Did anyone actually want that?

Things I want to see in future installments: - MOAR ROCKET just SO MUCH ROCKET - Fill Cosmo Canyon with hippies who smoke Cloud out so he can have a few minutes of goddamn peace and relaxation. Then he and Cid can smoke a fat blunt. - Make the Gold Saucer loving awesome - Make Corel Prison loving heartbreaking (it's SO GOOD in the original game and the music is perfect!) - Expand the City of the Ancients because it's my favorite and it looked so beautiful in the original. - Make the archaeology "mini-game" 1) fun, and 2) actually related to archaeology in some way! - snowboard surfing behind ice chocobos I do not want: - Fort Condor AT ALL please don't make me do this crap again. - To chase Yuffie down. Just join without being so dramatic; I'm barely gonna use you, anyways.

how come cloud never gets invited to eat? seems like he gets kicked out of the room every time there's food. he gets uninvited from the pre-reactor-bombing party. he stands outside for the pizza scene and no one saves him a slice. he turns down food at aeris's house. maybe he just doesn't eat because he has an energy potion addiction? those things must have a hell of a lot of protein in them to keep a SOLIDER going with no other nutrition. i guess the troops eat that and the normies want to eat more variety.

SOLDIERs are fueled by ethanol like futurama robots which is why the only thing cloud consumes on screen is hard liquor potions are 40% alcohol by volume and elixirs are functionally just everclear

Probably because any time you make any kind of personable overture towards him, his response is one of deep confusion. "Cloud, come have sex with me in my shipping container house!" "...huh?" "Do you want to go to Wall Market?" "What are you talking about?" *looks left* "Would you like a drink?" *that Japanese noise that's halfway between "guh" and "huh" and indicates some kind of surprise* "How are you today?" *folds arms, intimidating glare*

I wonder if the real reason Square lost the original source to FF7 is that the developers were so disgusted by their own code that they deleted everything after shipping the "final" build https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAvfBwPzfJw
