Looks like I struck a nerve. No, it’s just basic psychology, actually, and anyone who cares so much about what an anonymous persona on the internet thinks of them is a solid case study.

Totally with ya. I enjoyed the MOTOR fight and the whole highway sequence more than just about any other fight in the game. All the 'QA miss blah-blah' is being way overblown. Some people are so infatuated with it they're writing full-blown short stories out of it. Insane, if you ask me...

I would've been happier if they weren't swooping in and ruining some of the good OG moments like when you first meet Aeris or are at the church with her, or the rest of the times they got in the way. I also feel if they were going to include them as much as they did they should've made them...

I mean, hey, we all loved the OG. But if you were to compile a list of things the Remake was better at that excluded things strictly on the basis of an advance in technology from 1997 to 2020 that allowed for it it'd be quite easy to do: 1) Honeybee Inn - instead of this just being a pervert's...

Also, for all the criticism of the Harbinger and whisper fight.. does no one remember the absolute clutz of a boss you fought in the OG before Seph's angelic form? Bizarro Sephiroth? I, personally, thought he was lame.. as well as the music. Then they followed that up with the most awesome...

A good post. In addition - as much as I love the OG it also had some cringe-worthy content. "Because, Cloud, you are...." (10 minute Jenova boss fight) "Beacause[sp].. you are a puppet." "I'm a puppet?" Who could forget that misspelled out-of-context exchange that threw a really awkward...

Looks like you're not done ranting... Stop being so defensive. The context of that entire paragraph was 'for many', of which I included myself if you'd bother to read down to the 3rd paragraph instead of immediately throwing your gloves up. And I went back and re-read about half of your post...

The first time through the game you’re going to be comparing every little thing to the original. This will cause you to dislike it and even be outright disgusted at times, because it’s a much different game than the original. They’re 23 years apart. This can be labeled the ‘Denial Stage’ for...

Yeah. But that doesn’t change the fact that he never sported a black wing in the OG. It’s a clear contradiction from the OG. You guys may want to check out the Easy Allies spoiler podcast with Max Dood as guest if you haven’t already. They put forth a convincing argument for the time travel...

I also loved how when Tifa would call Cloud on it you sometimes heard Barret’s voice in the background on Cloud’s end. Details.

Me too. :)

If Sephiroth’s not a time traveler, then how does he have a black wing already? He doesn’t have that before Advent Children, which takes place after the OG. Does he? It could just be a stylistic change, but then you’re leaving it subject for ridicule amongst a community of fans that have been...

So that quote from Kitase is from today and not a past quote from him that someone just decided to post today?

Made it to Ch 16. Toughest non-boss enemies IMO have been the Sahagin. Those guys, combined with the hard-shelled crabs, are a real pain on hard mode since I have to conserve my magic. Oh, and those damn sloats in the sewer had me cussing for a bit. Once I avoided their typhoon move they...
