I imagine a number of factors help with that (in addition to overall game quality): The spoilers may have put off people who weren't committed to completing it People felt they needed to complete it in order to have an opinion of the whole game - it was quite polarising, which drove even those...

Maybe Sephiroth found it and that's what tipped him over the edge into full-on crazy-pants Sephiroth. :aah:

They were both scientists.... let's assume it was a test-tube conception :D Though Hojo seemed to have quite a way with the ladies in OG....

Yeah, there is no hint of paternal instinct/regret from Vincent, his regrets are all focused on Lucrecia.

I always imagined in Vincent's sin scene in DoC that the paternity was painted in a deliberately ambiguous way. In the compilation, Hojo clearly believes he is the father. But to me the subtext in this scene, it really sounds like Lucrecia is pleading to Vincent to speak up as the father. If he...

Ah I see, that makes sense! So his comparing his shock at being woken up by Veld in that moment as more shocking than if Reno's own dead dad woke him up. Thanks, I feel a lot more comfortable with the official translation now. This is a meaningful comparison, a comparison perhaps of Reno's two...

Thanks! I guess what complicates that more is that Veld goes on to suggest the Turks are like his family (making Veld their father figure). And to me, it felt like Reno would be more likely to be literally shocked by being woken up by Veld, who he did think was dead (assuming this the first...

If I recall correctly, the OG didn't itself indulge in fake-out deaths, and the story was so memorable partly because of the shocking finality of , but the wider compilation was completely littered with them, off the top of my head,

I was watching The Last Kingdom yesterday, and it struck me if the making of Remake might be similar: basing the story loosely on the recorded "history" (compilation in this case). At least that's what I am prepared for as a worst case. I expect it will retain a lot of existing canon and I'll...

If you do, I'd be so grateful for clarification on this translation: On page 160 of the official English translation it stated that Reno's father is dead: "Yikes. I'd be less freaked out if my dad woke me up," Reno remarked. "And he's dead" But thelifestream.net translation says...
