Aerith was fine in Remake but she started to get on my nerves in Rebirth. Anyone else?

the tone is all wrong in rebirth, too lighthearted, joyful, dramatic moments like Dyne's fight/death are treated like a fucking joke. Temple of the Ancients also has its fair share of out of place humor. The original knew how to balance this shit out, and remake did too. Not sure what happened for rebirth to be that way

Dyne dies and seconds later Dio shows up flexing his muscles like a retard and then Palmer shows up with his mech and there's a boss fight, because of course there has to be a boss fight. People are making jokes and laughing while Barret is on his knees over Dyne's still warm body.

They are not joking or laughing what the fuck. The team is just taking care of the buggy and receving the stuff
all of the dyne happens as serious as it gets and when it is done, it is done. Then you see the scene of Cloud giving Barret back his gun arm and say "we are here for you, i mean it", thats a joke to you? what the fuck?
>>
>>727277461
Nah, remake knew when to be serious, Rebirth doesn't.
>>
>>727277521
I don't remember the exact order of things, I just remember the whole sequence being retarded. This should've been a heavy and personal moment for Barret, instead it's like a fucking disney ride.

>>727277093
>the tone is all wrong in rebirth, too lighthearted, joyful
Exactly, because this arc of the game specifically is about the adventure and exploring the world you are supposed to protect. The party isnt sure whats happening with sephiroth and they tackle the world as it comes, it happens the same as the OG. Its just usual JRPG adventure.
>dramatic moments like Dyne's fight/death are treated like a fucking joke.
Every single dramatic moment is treated with drama, not jokes. There arent marvel jokes as in "this character is dying, throw in a joke". All the "jokes" happen later, after the events are done, similar to how the scene goes to black and they go back with mr coates to have fun chocobo racing.

>temple of the Ancients also has its fair share of out of place humor. The original knew how to balance this shit out, and remake did too
Temple of the ancients in remake is far, FAR more serious than the original. The trials alone is far more serious than anything the original did with temple. Replay the original and tell me how the fucking rolling stones is supposed to be serious. Or how the indiana jones music is supposed to be serious (great music btw, but the tone is clearly different. The original music is more about fun exploring a tomb or something, the remake version is slower, more sacred, clearly giving you a "Sacred/mysterious" atmosphere. Its not just another tomb, it is THE temple). The original treats the temple of the ancients as just another building containing the black materia. Remake treats its as a sacred temple, filled with cetra history where Aerith learns about herself and suffers for it.

I hate it man, i hate all of you, AI pajeets with no real opinions, never saying how things actually happen, its always just an exaggeration in order to have a single argument.
So fucking tired of this shit.

>>727278008
Jessie was basically a non-entity in the original, they had to make her extremely proactive in the remake in order to give her at least a semblance of presence, i guess trying to get into Cloud's pants is one way of doing it.

i agree with you in theory, but not for this game. they just make shit up.
there's a scene where barret and dyne are arguing. the japanese script has him express concern about his wife. the english script is about his daughter. his adopted daughter who wasn't born at the time.
you can't just make shit up because it sounds good. there's a middle ground.

>>
>>727278374
>>cue dubstep music and Palmer throwing a tantrum
its not "cue dubstep" is fighting music. It happens after dyne fighting. When the party notices shinra is coming, it is not treated as a joke.

>followed by Dio flexing his muscle next to Dyne's body
Yeah it happens later. Dio flexing his muscles isnt even a joke, thats just what Dio does. He pays his respects, gives the buggy to the party, and a "hopeful" theme plays to show that this is the aftermath of everything that happened, where barret decides to pick up his gun arm again and keep carrying that guilt.
Wheres the supposed joyful tone? where are the jokes? the "well that just happened" because i sure dont remember it.

Palmer slapping his ass isn't supposed to be funny?
>>
>>727278537
you are incapable of understanding a reasonable middleground between two retarded options, and you rely on false dichotomy because you don't have a real argument.
>>
>>727278667
wasnt that 1% of the entire fight? I have trouble thinking that specific moment was the moment that stuck with you during the entire sequence.
And dont get me wrong. I would have moved Palmer to Chapter 14 gold saucer fight instead and rework the fights with corneo, but you acting like this invalidated everything before is just retarded.

He could have her just by staying in the village, it's his own ego that owned his life.
>>
>>727278848
Barret's friend died in front of him in a long drawn out dramatic and sad scene and then not one minute later I'm getting mooned by Palmer. Rebirth's problem is that sombre moments aren't given room to breathe like they were in the original, everything moves from one set piece to the next far too quickly and the result is tonal whiplash.
>>
>>727278848
Point is you don't have time to take in the moment, it's immediatly followed by "fun" shit. They could've taken the time to, i don't know, give Dyne a burial, and then on the way back to the Corel prison have Palmer and Shinra surround them instead of whatever the fuck was that sequence
>>
>>727278142
Only valid criticism is the story aesthetic. It doesn’t feel have that same depressing “the world is ending” feel that the OG had.

But any Ubisoft/padding criticism is bullshit. The OG had plenty of padding with its deliberately confounding town and outer world maps that made you go around in circles.

I mean, you have arguments to both sides.
The way you set up the plotting can make everything look too artificial. Dio told you before that shinra was on the hunt and it was a matter of time before they find you, so crashing the moment felt a little more natural since things dont happen as you would hope.

>>727279000
Remake covers the OG from start to leaving Midgar. Rebirth covers the OG from leaving Midgar to Aerith's death
>>
>>727279567
No you won't
>>
>>727280627
The Wutai scenario was obviously meant to happen before Aerith's death since she has some dialogue in the OG there, and the whole event is not in Rebirth.
>>
>>727280771
Yes, i would, easily. World map is by far the most elegant solution when it comes to psuedo open environments, it keeps filler to a minimum and focuses all content in specific hubs rather than smearing it all around in a tasteless checkpoint fashion.
This is one of the reasons E33 was so good.
>>
>>727280865
they're setting up a big conflict with wutai, it's likely going to be a large part of the third game. Aerith might have had dialogue there in og, but Yuffie was optional in the first place, Vincent too, and he had dialogue as well.
>>
>>727280865
>since she has some dialogue in the OG there
yeah but, what kind of dialogue does she get
>oh no! our materia!

Dyne, Seto, Nibelheim, and Aerith's death are all abortions compared to the OG. The rest is pretty good

Shut up retard. When you're with your party in the heat of the moment, the world doesn't suddenly become sad and depressed waiting for you to pull up your straps. The mission has to go on, other people have agendas. Yeah someone you care about dying is tragic, but the world can't stop for you while you mourn, especially if the world is counting on you.
This isn't marvel movie oscarbait where the Turks are going to stop and watch as Barret carries him like a Duality of Man painting to a hand dug grave and decide to hold off fighting while you morn a loss for 15 minutes. They're going to see an opportunity to put down their enemy and follow through.
This is a story of a war being fought across an entire planet to save that planet.

I feel like it's hard making something popular, seeing reception to it, and not leaning too far into the thing that people liked as a result. People like Aerith's attitude in the first one so they went overboard with it in the next one.

When Remake was announced, fans were concerned that the games would be too grimdark and overserious like the other FF7 sequels which completely lack the charm and fun of the original. Rebirth did exactly that and now people complain that it isn't serious enough.
I think the main story scenes of Rebirth play it fairly straight, they've maybe gone a bit far with the side content and characters which are near universally silly and that kind of bleeds into the perception of the main storyline.

Tonally, I expect that Rebirth will be a diversion period and that the third game will be much more "serious" but that kind of disappoints me, hopefully it isn't charmless like other modern media
>>
>>727290090
Quite honestly no foe in Remake is really a rival for Cloud, he effortlessly shit stomps everyone coming his way. He beats Reno so badly he can barely stand afterwards despite him being a cocky little shit.
>>
>>727276339
isnt it because in rebirth she is clueless aerith ? in remake she knew her fate
>>
>>727290764
Eh, i think they tackled it well.
Part 1 is in the middle, introduces everything and has a mix of humor and seriousness.
Part 2 is pretty much exploring the world and having fun, since it is the laidback part of the story. Stuff happens, but there arent marvel moments like "serious scene has a joke".
Part 3 should be the most serious game in the trilogy since this is when everything goes to shit in every sense. So what you said isnt necessarily a "uh, people complained" change, it is just what happens.
>>
I look like this
>>
>>727276339
I thought she was mostly the same in Rebirth but a bit less actually. Maybe it's because she didn't seem to get as much screentime. Tifa was annoying as fuck in Remake but did get a bit better in Rebirth.

>>727290806
Lore wise, Cloud was somewhere near the same power scale as Zack because his Jenova cells copied Zack's physical ability and skill to wield the Buster Sword. That's why he was able to do all the stunts that a real SOLDIER First Class could do. So yeah, he's technically the strongest in the story, second only to Sephiroth, since Zack never beat him in the lore.
>>
>>727291554
You wern't supposed to ruin my point by using the same logic as me
>>
>>727292045
And in the end he outright surpassed Sephiroth via Omnislash.
>>
>>727276339
Both games get on my nerves. It's not a remake. Only thing remade about it is the characters.
>>
>>727292247
I'm gonna assume Cloud unlocks the skill to dual wield in Part 3 after he recovers from his breakdown, since at that point he's no longer copying Zack's fighting style. That would make the most sense to me.
>>
>>727292578
The original Omnislash didn't require dual wielding. I'm not into Compilation garbage but advanced Omnislash as a way to surprise Sephiroth was one of a few well done things about it since he basically invented an entirely new combat style to finish him off.
>>
>>727291915
Aerith definitely has a better VA. I just mean that in Remake Tifa was very whiny. Rebirth Tifa less so. By comparison Aerith is more or less the same as in Remake but has less to do.
