So what REALLY happened during the ending sequence?
>>736893843Like I give a shit.
>>736893843Not even Nomura and Nojima know the answer to that question
>>736893843I genuinely dont give a fuck anymore.
Clerith is canon
>>736893843She died, Cloud went into super heavy denial. Because whoever is in charge of the story thinks that was both necessary and engaging for his character. Unfortunately it misses out the point that Cloud in the OG was not in denial which made Sephiroth's control that much worse, and it actually made Aeris' death, and the events leading up to it as Cloud worries about how much control he has, have impact.
>>736893843>she died>no wait she's alive>no she's dead>oh wait she's alive and she's helping you fight Sephiroth ZOMG!>oh nevermind she's deadconvoluted DOGSHIT that ruins the original moment sucking out any grief the player might have and replacing it with confusion. All subtlety gone so Nomura can have his cringe multiverse bullshit. This was the one part in FFVII that should have been played straight in the remake and they fucked it up. She's going to be everywhere as a ghost in part 3 talking to Cloud ruining the finality of her death even more.
It's a convoluted plot device designed to be as vague as possible so you have interest in Part 3.They're doing the same shit with Zack and the Avalanche crew.
>>736893843Cloud blocks the sword, the timeline "corrects" itself, creating two timelines.
>>736893843It's not supposed to mean anything or be coherent. It's textbook Nomuraslop; it's smoke an mirrors with absolutely ZERO substance because he doesn't understand substance. He thinks that convolution for the sake of convolution is D E E P. He thinks unforeshadowed, unknowable, nonsensical asspulls are revelations and "a-ha!" moments. He doesn't understand the fundamentals behind the things he attempts to portray, and so everything related to Nomura is meaningless fakedeep bullshit that no one should ever pay any attention to, because all of it is entirely devoid of meaning. All Nomuraslop is inherently vapid and no mind should ever be paid to anything contained within Nomuraslop games. Watch the flashing lights, marvel at the pretty colors, turn your brain all the way off, do not devote even a single thought to anything attached to the name "Nomura", and then forget all about it as soon as it is over, if you must play it. That's how Nomuraslop should be treated. Nothing will ever come from trying to unravel the convoluted contrivances of Nomuraslop, it is a waste of brain power to consider anything related to Nomura for even 1 second.
>>736894840imagine if he blocked the sword but just deflected it to Tifa and it kills her?
>>736893843Aerith diedCloud doesnt accept it and blocks itall of his denial and pain creates the "aerith lives" lifestream branch that sephiroth will use to manipulate CloudEventually Cloud will have to accept her death by making the CHOICE of letting aerith go in order to properly defeat sephiroth, or in other words, reach acceptance.
>>736893843>from the faggot that directed KH series>a series that so convoluted and stupid it require PHD just to get the timeline right
>>736893843It's all fanfiction at this point, and it misses everything that made FF7 great.
>>736895170Its really not that deep retard
>>736895284You are confusing convoluted with deep. A common trait amongst retards.
>>736895512NTA, but I think (You) are confusing convoluted with deep. You said you need a PHD to understand Kingdom Hearts, which isn't deep, it's just convoluted, and it doesn't even make any sense at all (see: Kairi, Mickey Mouse's shirt, etc)
>>736895643You're the one who said deep, retard.
>>736895750>You're the one who said deepNope. I'm not that guy, I'm just telling you that (You) said you need a PHD to understand Kingdom Hearts, which would imply that it requires a certain level of higher education to understand, which sort of implies that it is in some way "deep", used colloquially. You are the incorrect person here. You shouldn't have said that a convoluted mess of nothing requires a PHD in order to understand. And actually, he even said "it's really *not* that deep", so he was saying it wasn't deep. You're not very good at conveying your thoughts correctly, but you are very good at becoming upset when someone interprets the words you have written, as they are written.
You'll have to wait for part 3 to see how Nojima's autism ends.
>>736895868Just because something is convulted doesn't mean it's deep, retard.
>>736895971Oh god, on top of being a moron who gets upset that he himself used words incorrectly and who also melts down at the incorrect people, you're also an avatarfag? Jesus Christ.
>>736896038Cry moar, retard.
>>736895141thank you for this, its really not that complicated but some people here need movieslop level of exposition to engage a narrative. not to mention the story is only 66% complete and we are not meant to understand every detail yet, like how cloud can see the crack in the sky (trademark of lifestream worlds) while in the physical.
>>736894461Nobody cares about Zack
There won't be a part 3
>>736893843noejima sniffed his own farts long and loud.
>>736896250Zack is one of the most popular characters in the series in Japan.
>Cloud! Save her!What did Zack mean by this?
>>736895141Very overly complicated way to reach a “similar” emotional beat as the original and most likely just feel drawn out to tug at heart strings of people who clap avengers movies up.
>>736896423Sure man
>>736895006Imagine if Cloud was just fine after that instead of getting depressed, too. The saltiness of waifufags would be legendary.
>>736893843Whatever is the most convenient based on fan feedback. Currently, it is intentionally vague because its completely up in the air. The scenario was not finished by the time they shipped out rebirth and that's the god honest truth.Currently, what little left of the structural integrity this product has left is being compromised by 3 groupsShareholders. The shareholders are going to want the avenue that will lead to the most efficient and effective merchandising. Since the game sales are wavering, anything to make the characters more marketable. The MTG sales gave them a taste of the merchandisingShippers. The shipping crowd is psychotic. That is a 100% proven and verifiable fact. The Remakes have been leaning more toward some of the dating sim elements and for fear of stepping on the toes of these deranged freaks, Square will pull their punches, and possibly write multiple ending scenes. Those heading the project. These fucks have conflicting visions and that much is abundantly clear.
>>736895884Top is just bottom but you don't need 3 hours and 45 useless side-fetch quests to progress.>b-b-b-but it LOOKS betterGenuinely kill yourself. That's why the remakes are ass.Because people care solely about graphics. Pretty = Good.Same reason games aren't optimizied. If it looks good, it sells. Doesn't matter if you get 3fps.
>>736896150>clearly he needed itNo he doesn't. He's wallowing in self pity and guilt for no reason, Aerith even chides him for it. It's absurd that Cloud is now going through this a third time during Rebirth.
>>736895141Nah, they are going to change it and give him some form of hope of being with Aerith. Otherwise it's just convoluted for the sake of it.
>>736896509You don't need to do any of that to progress in Rebirth. Why are you so passionate about the game without even having played it?
The cut scenes in Rebirth in total come to 13 hours. I think someone at SE HQ should be beaten to death for it.
The discord trannies are here.
>>736896509>Because people care solely about graphics."""People""" only care about graphics and dollars-per-hour value. You can play Rebirth for 200 hours if you really want to. Rebirth has better graphics than the original (even if it has worse graphics than Remake) which is a plus. These are the only things the modern audience cares about. It's simply a bonus that it has Final Fantasy VII characters in it. Some people will buy anything that has Cloud and Tifa in it, forever, no matter what, even if they are no longer the actual Cloud and Tifa.
>>736896423They are trying to push him into another superseller like Cloud by shoving him down everyone's throat, but I don't think it's that effective.
>>736896554I have played it. You do have to do a bunch of useless unfun side shit to progress. You can't just go from A to B without inerruption. Even the shitty ass chocobo rest point or whatever, you have to stop for 30 seconds until cloud decides to finally pick up the sign all the way. The entire experience is a slog. Like walking through chest high diarrhea.
Zissnei!
>>736896484Theres no denial or acceptance regarding aerith in the og, it just happened
>>736896652You have to do 2 chocobo minigames total to progress in the whole game. Everything else is running to the next objective if you don't actually want to play the game. You also have to do a tedious task to get a chocobo in the original, by the way. Even more tedious, actually.
>>736896507According to Nojima they wouldn't change the story according to feedback, but who knows with those guys.
>>736896719>Everything else is running to the next objective if you don't actually want to play the game.What the FUCK did anon mean by this? Are you trying to say that all the checklist and minigame bloat is the real game?
>>736896709Because having a “denial” leading to multiverse nonsense is retarded especially with time jannies. I can’t imagine what else they’d butcher after they butchered the city of ancients so terribly.
>>736896719>Even more tedious>Equip materia>Run around in a circle for 12 seconds>Kill everything without attacking the chocobo>Done in less than 3 mintuesYou are very obviously an absolute retard. You MUST have some sort of disability.Also your argument for Rebirth is>Bro, just play the game but skip everything except the mandatory stuffWow, what a brilliant defense. Sounds like a great game.
>>736896719Yes it’s so tedious to use an item on an enemy that’s guaranteed to spawn at a specific spot in the map that the game INFORMS you of Retard kill yourself
I really genuinely loved FF7 Remake and Rebirth. The games being fun and a great expansion to the world of FF7 aside these are some of the most ambitious pure passion projects ever seen in gaming and you can tell tons of effort went into both of them. That being said, the ending of Rebirth is genuinely the most retarded shit of all time. The time ghosts were stupid in Remake but they never straight up ruined anything. The ending of Remake implied that they would change shit in Rebirth but that didn't end up really happening and for the most part the game they played it straight right up until the end. I cannot even comprehend what the fuck is happening with the dog universes.My biggest gripe though was Aeriths death, not even how it was handled but the actual direction of the scene. This is one of the most iconic scenes in video game history and instead of just letting it play out the stupid fucking time ghosts are flying around all over the fucking place ruining the moment completely. All of the atmosphere of the otherwise beautifully recreated City of the Ancients destroyed by having these fucks constantly whooshing around and taking up most of the screen. I really couldn't believe they didn't see how stupid it was while they were making it. The other 99% of the game was impeccable but I wish I was lying when I say it almost ruined the entire game for me.
>>736896837Lmao so no argument
>>736896885>>736896887Play FF7, retard. You have to feed it greens or it'll run. Fucking idiot retard.
What a contentious thread
>>736896709Yep, the extreme guilt in Advent Children came out of nowhere for many.
>>736896817The OG equivalent would be to run in a straight line, avoiding all content and paths, solely progressing the stories. You don't enjoy video games. What the fuck do YOU mean?
>>736896937I'm not the guy you were responding to. I probably should have said that first. I just think it's utterly incomprehensible to berate an anon because he doesn't want to scan rocks or complete all the piano songs or whatever, and not only that but you're insisting that all the Chudley checklist bloat is the real game, and that the real, actual game is just an afterthought. Which may very well be the case, it's just strange to hear that coming from someone who seems to be defending it.
>>736896763Fan feedback, perhaps not, but they are 100% beholden to shareholder feedback, and if fans are loud enough the shareholders will raise a fuss
>>736896918You don't you dumb filty nigger. It just prevents it from running. If you kill everything fast enough it doesn't run. I did fail to mention it, yes, but at least get your fucking facts straight you inbred cunt. It doesn't make it more complicated either. Just select the thing then the chocobo, fucktard.
>>736896998You're a disingenuous moron, in other words. Such passion for things you hate.
>>736897039You're a colossal retard, giving all FF fags a bad name. Unmitigated autism. Get past your mid-life crisis already. This is just embarrassing.
>>736897062>You're a disingenuous moronI'm just trying to understand why someone defending the game would say that the minigame and checklist bloat is the real game and that if you don't want to complete the 100+ hours of minigams and checklists and you just want to play Final Fantasy VII that you don't enjoy the game. >Such passion for things you hate.You're the one saying the real game is something that people can't enjoy. You're the one saying the minigame checklist bloat is the real game. I'm just repeating back to you what you said to the other guy.
>>736897080>I have no counter argument. You were right. So I will just call you retarded and embarrassing.
>>736896905Are you retarded? (Probably lol) the argument is plain as day, whatever they’re going for will never be as impactful as the original for the simple reason being the intent behind the story is simply to sell more merch if cloud and gang. The originals was designed to genuinely replicate a feeling of absolute loss of someone dear that can never return and how that’s handled. Time jannies stretched across three games that already neutered the majority of the atmosphere and tone of the original already killed all chances of it ever reaching the same level, the story decisions just bury it deep neck in nonsense
can they just show part 3 already
>>736897279They're still cooking it, and in Hamaguchi's last interview he said it was "mostly" on track, which probably means it's at least moderately behind schedule.
>>736897279The third part will release in 2027 to celebrate the OG's 30th anniversary. So if they releasing it at the start of 2027, the first trailer drops 6 months prior, this year's summer
>>736897279>>736897512Buuut it might release on December of 2027 and in that case the trailer will drop summer 2027
>>736897512What if they drop it at the end of 2027? Like September or maybe even December?
Is she dead or not?Jesus fucking christ
>>7368975576 months prior.
>>736897605Sit down. She's dead. But Cloud is under illusion she's alive. When everyone else were mourning her, Cloud was talking with the illusion Aerith and everyone were wondering what's wrong with Cloud. So the 3rd part's Cloud's identity/reality crisis will be accepting Aerith's gone
What made Aeris' death so impactful was that after Sephiroth stabs her, it's over.She never speaks again.You never see her smile or look at you ever again.She's dead, and she's gone forever.
>>736897605yes she is dead dead. but the lifestream exists where she can still do esoteric things behind the scenes (like the OG where she destroyed meteor with the lifestream itself)
>>736897605She's dead Jim. What you're seeing is Lifestream force ghost Aerith or a hallucination/disguised form created by Jenova.
>>736897705>What you're seeing is Lifestream force ghost Aerith or a hallucination/disguised form created by Jenova.in other words: it's life but not as we know it... Captain.
>>736897512there were 20 months between rebirth reveal (june 2022) and release (feb 2024). using a similar timeline, assuming they reveal it at summer games fest would put the release of part 3 at late 2027 EARLIEST
>>736897605She's alive. In one timeline for now, but they'll bring her to the main timeline.
>>736897773Yes yes. 6 monts prior. No use squirming or screeching.
Why did they let hojo go free at Costa del sol? He's right there
>>736897672>What made Aeris' death so impactful was that after Sephiroth stabs her, it's over.>She never speaks again.What truly made Aerith's death so impactful is that it was the first time most of its players experienced death of a main cast member in a video game. For people like me who had already been playing video games for several years, we had already experienced death of major party members or even the main character and thus Aerith's death was nothing. Honestly, I didn't even give a shit at all because I didn't use her as a party member. I just moved on. And then you go snowboarding right after so it's like the game doesn't care either.
>>736897605DEAD. you can literally see cloud monologuing like in the original as she is dying but with no sound because he is repressing it. also tifa sees blood while cloud doesnt
>>736897863He was on vacation. Same reason Turks didn't go after you in Wutai in OG, they were on vacation
Nobody knowsHope they give us an option to bring back my wife in part 3
>>736897901Ummmm. After her dead you reach Icicle Inn, the town in snow. In the town there's a house that belonged to Aerith's dad and mom and you can see their video tape conversation and how Hojo barged in and killed the dad and captured the mom and baby Aerith
>>736895884It's amazing how certain people think the low poly environments and characters, the toasters for hands, the lack of textures, most 3d models consisting of gourard shading, and the janky pre-rendered backgrounds with painfully obvious 90s era rendering, were "creative decisions". The fact that FF8 and FF9, on the same console, brutally mog FF7, is overlooked by these people. They clearly had little grasp of the tech when making FF7. The characters switching from chibi to normal proportions randomly, OG FF7 is a mess visually.
>>736897971Sure. I don't think anyone cared. I certainly didn't.
>>736893843this basicallyhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqbxCzn-9qo
>>736893843I can only give theories for what I think the ending met because the next game could come out and what I think happened could be totally wrong.What I think happened is that Sephiroth is trying to combine with Sephiroths from other timelines where he won and Aeriths are basically trying to stop as many Sephiroths as possible in as many timelines as possible so that he has little Sephiroths as possible to combine with. For some reason the main timeline our Cloud is in is the most important for reasons we don't know yet, it's probably where sephiroth is gonna combine with all the other Sephiroths that won for some reason.the Aerith we know died but the Aerith at the end of the game is a different Aerith that's guiding this timeline to defeat its Sephiroth. The ending is likely going to be Cloud actually letting go and the Aerith he saw helping him going back into the lifestream for good.The ending didn't really explain anything, I'm mostly guessing based off of the tropes we keep seeing over and over.
>>736898024Yes you did. Also you are meant to rotate characters after each dungeon. The only reason you chose not to use Aerith was because you were spoiled she will die and you were afraid her gaining levels/limit breaks would hinder others. Newsflash, it doesn't! All party memeber even those not in the active party gain EXP!
>>736897968Square Enix would never be cool to give us a 100% happy ending. They've long since been in their never-ending shitty phase with no engoodening in sight. But a man can hope they dare to make their audience happy. At least let Aerith and her true love Zack have each other in the afterlife or another dimension or SOMETHING. For fuck's sake, Square.
>>736898116Genuinely what is wrong with you? And no, I didn't know Aerith was going to die. The reason I didn't use her is because I was a retarded kid who just used the people who had the highest attack and I spammed attack.
>>736898131why would I care about zack
>>736898187I've played FF7 from start to completion over 10 times
>>736897901Nei's death in Phantasy Star 2 pre-dates Aerith by nearly a decade.One thing about Reibirths ending, is that the snowboarding now has an actual context.
>>736898204Because Aerith does.Cloud x TifaAerith x ZackBarrett x Marlene's College FundCid x Aerith's MomVincent x Being A CuckYuffie x Doing Adult StuffNanaki x Being Best Boy
All deranged FFcultists reunited here.
>>736898241
>>736894993Filtered
>>736898267............reunion...........
>>736898131They torpedoed her relationship with Zack bro, it's over. The only hope is her and Cloud find each other on the next life or some shit.
>>736898241>Nei's death in Phantasy Star 2 pre-dates Aerith by nearly a decade.Yeah, that's a big one. Or Crono in Chrono Trigger.Or Hamlet in Illusion of Gaia.
>>736897968Don't worry anon, they've teased it too much for it to not happen.
>>736893843kingdom hearts actually makes sense compared to whatever the fuck happened in stillbirth
>>736893843Who cares. Cloud should just retire and marry Priscilla
>>736898415This is my favorite version of Tifaface in Rebirth.
Bros. If Aerith's not dying. Surely that means someone else is dying instead?
>>736898353he fed himself to the enemy so others could live...
>>736893843>End of original ff7>Cloud and the gang are swallowed by the life stream>Life stream acts as a matrix-like reality showing them "what if" scenarios>Cloud having a bigger connection to sephirot/black materia/white materia/jenova whatever, is in denial of Areiths death and subconsciously tries to steer the narrative to a "areith alive" route>The gang still sees the original>Discordant lifestream realities fuckery which will be the central plot of Remake 3>Cloud will be forced to let go of it if he wants to "fix" everything and defeat SephirotAll of this is bullshit since in the original the whole point of cloud's character is that accepting Areiths death is what moved him into a more proactive role and provided a wedge to free himself from Sephirot's control
>>736898401>kingdom hearts actually makes senseShut the absolute fuck up, Cuckdom Farts faggot. Nobody gives a shit.
Roche is going to stick the black material into his motorcycle and turn into the real final boss he's constantly moving around in the air the entire time too
>>736898541lmao this retard still can't understand DDD
>>736898595IF YOU KNOW THEN TELL ME WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED???!
>>736897605Everyone will think she's dead, driving Cloud to mentally collapse until he proves he blocked the sword.
>>736898645dreamsdarkness within darknessxehanort clonestime travel that's more retarded than FF1s time loopi'm taking the piss, it makes more sense than rebirth but it's still retarded either way
Wouldn't it be funny if they just forgot about him?
What is it about this game that feels at home. I used to hate its popularity until I finally got around to it much later in my life. Everything is warm and perfect. Even the cringe. I will die happy if they make a ff6 remake as well but dont think that is happening
>>736898645NTA but KH has a bad case of having plot twists as soon as it goes stale to keep engagement, but feels like the writer made them after other things were already set in stone and sits you down for increasingly long amounts of time to explain how "it totally fits bro because this this and that"
>>736898980>What is it about this game that feels at homeIt features the skinsuits of the characters you remember from your youth, with a story that you are already familiar with.
Is this any good
>>736894324The entire sequence feels, specially Aerith's triumphant return, like the devs thought they wouldnt get a third game and blew their entire load on a Safer Sephiroth fight and Aeriths final battle in the lifestream against himThats the kind of shit that should have happened in the next game, would have held way more weight too, with her being missing from the entirety of the game only to return at the very end
>>736898415Priscilla belongs to Mr. Dolphin.
>>736898980You actually played it and realized it's just a good game with some slow parts.Most people don't play video games so that puts them at a disadvantage.
>>736893843Aerith is kill, but there's at least one of the worlds where she's still alive physically, yet incapacitated. She's basically fighting Sephiroth on the astral plane. The simplest way to understand the remakes is the novellas Lifestream white/black. What as the player we see play out as an altered retelling of the OG story is actually just the facade for the battle between Aerith and Sephiroth in the lifestream. I wouldn't be surprised if it ends with Sephiroth being redeemed like a saar in the end because it's the only way to finally get rid of him, the have his humanity absorbed by the lifestream and the jenova filtered into oblivion. Like Poltergeist 3 or some shit.
>>736899123Pirate it and read it
>>736898261Vincent and Cissnei would be a perfect pairing. Both former Turks, both Cucks.
>>736898913He's pretty important to Yuffie's character arc.
>>736899038>remember from your youthI actually never played it in my youth though. I didnt play a single jrpg growing up
>>736899187IMHO Zack will end up with still-alive Aerith in another timeline.
>>736899123Is there an english release already?
>>736899319That looks like overmodded Skyrim, maybe that's what's triggering the feels.
>>736899136>blew their entire load on a Safer Sephiroth fighti haven't played since ps5 release, i thought it was just bizarro, or was the zack phase safer?
Aeroth was saved in retrilogy timeline, the version where she dies are obvious visions of the OG timeline. Cloud will have to prove this to everyone and he will get some sort of ending with her.
>>736898415
>>736898853>i'm taking the piss, it makes more sense than rebirth but it's still retarded either wayThe best thing is that Nomura does NOT realize how a badly constructed story that badly affects the main characters usually leads to awful sales. Nomura is about to see Kingdom Hearts become Final Fantasy XIII where each sequel sold less and less strictly because many customers hated the badly written story and trash main characters.That's what awaits Kingdom Hearts 4. And this time it will be fully Nomura's fault. He will forever remember that he is the one who ruined Kingdom Hearts along with his minions Nojima and Tai Yasue. Hope that it haunts them and ruins their careers. And if Nomura and his minions don't care may they get hit by a car.Used to like Kingdom Hearts but the writing became so genuinely terrible that its a legit embarrassment of a series. Notice how young people refuse to give the games a chance. On the other hand young gamers still give Resident Evil games a shot. And don't say its because Resident Evil is rated M because other family friendly brands that are old like Sonic still keep their momentum with young folk. Kingdom Hearts has truly become indefensible shit.
I haven't played Rebirth yet but what do you mean by that?Did they change Aerith's death?
>>736899319Doubt.
>>736893843Cloud saved aerith but she had to shift reality cause she has to die to stop sephiroth while having only cloud know that she is "alive" cause she is afraid that his he will just breakdown. It's also why the others were hallucinating that she died like when cloud having his memory episodes.It's why she can fight with cloud at the end of the game and why he can talk to her more directly before entering the plane at the end.Maybe instead of child cloud helping tifa restore his memories It's with aerith instead cause she's a pervert and a groomer.
>>736899462Perfect.
>>736893843Cloud saved her lmao. No way they added all the whispers stuff for nothing, anyone who thinks otherwise is coping
>>736899610They integrated cloud finally going completely crazy as a bait to fans expecting aerith to survive in an "alternate timeline". Cloud is seeing Aerith alive even though she's actually dead alluding to his eventual degradation into a drooling retard.Honestly genius if you ask me.
>>736899874Is there anything about the Remake that isn't genius?
>>736899136They must have something even grander prepared for part 3. Otherwise they wouldn't gave gone with bringing her back so soon.
>>736899610She's dead in one timeline, alive in the other. But Cloud still sees her and interacts with her in both.
>>736899906Locking hard mode on NG+. Fucking braindead casualfag first playthrough so you're to play it twice to enjoy the actually good combat system is what makes me hate it.
>>736899995Stop being obscene. You need to play the story first before you jump to hard difficulty and the hard difficulty is balanced so that you have levelled up your characters and have equipment to go with the hard mode
>>736900162>I'm a casualfag. Yes. Go back to playing your gacha games.
>>736893843sephiroth says it himself>a confluence of worlds and emotions2 worlds have merged or are in the middle of merging, one where aerith lives and one where she dies. cloud is living in both of them simultaneously while the rest of the party is living/only aware of the world where she dieswhen sephiroth is explaining the multiverse to cloud it literally shows two worlds merging together>b-but sephiroth is not a reliable narrator!!!him and aerith are the only ones who truly know whats going on and aerith doesnt bother explaining jackshit.
>>736900382Not him, but Final Fantasy is literally the peak casual series.
>>736893843A cliffhanger so you wait and buy the next game, that's what happened.
What are they going to do with my boy Zack now that they shot down his romance with Aerith? Is he really going to leave with Angeal in the lifestream like in the mobile game? That's a shit ending, I would prefer they let him live and find another girl.
>>736899995because taking away items and restoring MP definetely makes the combat better it doesn't
>>736898509I hope all of them die.and then I hope nomura dies after the poor sales.
>>736898509Aerith already died in one timeline, the OG.
>>736900787>brings back cissnei>she lives in zacks hometowncmon anon
>>736893843Was he really crying this hard in the OG? Somehow I didn't picture it like that.
>>736900932The Remake takes a lot of liberties with the narrative of Final Fantasy VII.
>>736897335i think it's more like "how do we innovate , how do we end the story ?" panic mode more than a technical/content creation setback , these shits didn't think they would get this far
>>736900903I hope you're right anon. I just hated his ending in the mobile game, it felt like a "how can we get rid of him now so he doesn't get in the way" type of ending. Unless they're planning another sequel with him and Angeal, which I doubt.So my hope is they let him live and get to Gongaga.
Will part 3 be the ending of the story and the compilation?
>>736901394There will never be an end to the FFVII Compilation. They'll continue milking it and its fans until Square Enix is no longer a company, and whoever buys them will continue milking it as well. It's the video game equivalent of the Star Wars movies.
>>736893843Does it matter?They ruined the story of FF7 purposefully to hook retards into wasting their money on this piece of shit.It's licensed fanfiction pretty much. It isn't worth thinking about.Either mindlessly consume or move on with your life knowing that we will never get an actual remake of FF7 and not a sequel with a meta joke for a name.
Too many scenes. Not enough video game.
>>736901835I bought Remake day 1 (actually a week before the release date because our supermarket was selling it on the old cancelled release date) and I bought Rebirth day 1. I will also buy the 3rd part day 1.
They didn't have Marlene tell Zack that Cloud has to get better so he can save Aerith for shits and giggles. He's going to fucking save her and he will finally get to be happy.
>>736901361>another sequel Anything's possible with square enix, lolBut Zack was already the protagonist of a game so they wouldn't use him. But Angeal still has hopes of one day being the main character of a compilation game, lol
>>736901394No, the anons who said FFVII will be milked forever will be proven right, and the anons claiming part 3 will be the end of it will be proven wrong, again, and their humiliation ritual will continue
>>736900932In the OG they have to keep up the pretense of Cloud being a tough exSOLDIER until the lifestream sequence. In Rebirth they stopped trying to hide his identity, so they let his reaction be more genuine. But I wonder how they'll make the lifestream stuff surprising now, since they've already teased and showed so much. They'll probably change it like Aerith's death.
>>736904763But they can only go >Did Aeris really die? Or>Who is Cloud in love with?So many times before everyone stops tuning in. It will at least be a turning point in how they milk it if they make future sequels. If they want to go the same AC route and continue with DoC, or if they set a fresh conflict for future sequels. I think they'll go with the latter.
