I remember looking up stuff for the game and didn't have the concept of fan fiction in my head. I saw all of these stories and was like "oh cool there's all of this extra story stuff on a game I like." I kind of finally clued in that it wasn't official when I saw a story that was all about Cloud having a bad hair day.

Hmm, cloud furiously pounding red xiii in the butt, yuffie using stolen materia as anal breads, wait...bad hair day!? This isn't from square!

How many EU things has Cloud been a part of? Just Advent Children and Kingdom Hearts?

Kingdom Hearts lost me when Johnny Depp, essentially, showed up.

So KH2 then?

Yes, but it was specifically that part of KH2.

The CT cutscene of Frog cutting the mountain in half is the most hilariously Dragon Ball thing.

lol according to the fan wiki Kefka is 5'4" and 35 years old and a canon birthday of November 19th so happy birthday I guess

Kefka being 5'4" actually works really well, lol.

I still love that for the 3D remake, when they realized you can't rename characters due to voiced cutscenes, rather than simply cut Namingway they have him have an existential crisis and travel the world constantly renaming himself and giving you silly small sidequests. One involves helping him keep out of hot water for accidentally setting up dates with 2 different girls at the same time lol.

The 3D remakes of III and IV had a lot of care put into them. I like them a lot.

Also, talking about IV reminded me of this really good breakdown of IV's translation, comparing the original japanese, the original english, and the re-translation for the 3D remake: https://legendsoflocalization.com/final-fantasy-iv/

X-2 has the best execution of the ATB system and the job system.

Also, it's peppiness is a great contrast to FFX. Where X has an obsession with death, X-2 has an obsession with life; it's goofy, optimistic, and fun. FF needs more of that.

I used to speedrun X-2, and the massage was my most consistent runkiller forever.

no don't, the elevator fight being a massive slog because you removed everyone's materia is a crucial part of the way the game was actually played

this is where 11 year old me gave up on the game.

I hope the remake gets rid of the entire dumb relationship system and does what they should've done from the start: establish Barrett as the only canonical date.

World of Final Fantasy is an actual game? I thought it was just another thing like Brave Exveveziusze.

Final Fantasy VII Remake Reveal Teased for 2019
https://www.playstationlifestyle.net/2018/12/19/final-fantasy-7-remake-update/

Tetsuya Nomura, director of the Final Fantasy VII remake project, and producer Yoshinori Kitase, both provided a “keyword” for 2019, along with a message for the fans. Nomura’s keyword was, well, “7.” But his message was more of a nugget, as he said “various plans will be announced.” Meanwhile, Kitase’s keyword was, “long wait,” and  his message was, “I’d like to try my best to respond to the expectations of the fans.”

Definitely worth an article, yeah.

I'd like to see a game play with the idea of Active Time Events a bit more. Like the Sexy Brutale but with multiple characters instead of time travel.
