Yeah, it really is a shame, but as Phantasia said, it was only a matter of time. Because it's expected, like a flare bursting on the already hot sun. That is, there comes a time where the extremes will happen, they already did a long time ago with the developers receiving death threats or...

Oh god yes. I actively try my best to stay away from the word "necessary/not necessary" unless it's necessary to bring it up. *badum-tsh* But it really is ironic. It's a term that hinges on something needing to be met, and what exactly that something is may very well not be applicable for a work...

Yeah it's fun, isn't it? lol I could describe this phenomenon as a mismanagement of information and logic, I suppose. Facts in and of themselves can be subject to change, but what we also tend to forget is that a lot of the objective sector of factual information and reasoning is attached to...

Absolutely, I knew from just a glance, but I have regret on investigating further because my head hurts after reading some comments. Gosh, it isn't even just about ignoring words of the creators or the work—there are some people who just want to hang onto their preferences/biases with deep...

I mean, it kind of feels like people are treating it with that importance when it's painted as an author intent of "don't objectify Tifa" for the fans or that Nojima is talking out of both sides of his mouth because of the relevancy of Tifa's appearance—at least that's what I've gotten from...

Internal and external matters for a character story—you guys know these things have never been mutually exclusive and they certainly don't have to, especially when whatever relevancy the external has is with actual purpose for setting up scenario and setting perspectives—especially once she...

Oh and that's fine! I do think there's an interesting commentary here though on that line/mileage I mentioned. Because, how you described her involvement in AC, if you were to take the Remake and do the same for Tifa, HALF of what you'd say shouldn't be about her appearance, if even...

You....sure about that? I'd like to say really everywhere, though it could be more prominent in the US, but it's absolutely normal, if not expected, to tell people directly if they're pretty, beautiful, handsome, etc. Especially 8 to 12 year olds, kids really, as some form of praise in a way...

Haha, yeah...Twitter in a nutshell. The reasons behind people's thoughts provide variables that make conversations like this complicated. Though actually, there are things I don't totally agree with here either, which if I'm not mistaken is mostly just that her beauty intentionally written to be...

Haha Well, it just kind of seems like word choice affects how each of us are describing things, doesn't it? I've seen how this can be a huge wall in conversations based on observations. I think we can agree some words have connotations that are a little less reliable if your goal is to be as...

In KH2 before he goes off to chase Sephiroth? I'm not sure if every moment someone mentions returning/or someone waiting is a reference to the last scene of Loveless XD But the parallel can be made, I suppose.

It's surprisingly about the same, actually. The only real difference would be that of requesting someone "absolutely don't die" vs "take care of yourself", though contextually this is a sliver of a difference for the passage itself in what it's conveying. Everything else is pretty well on. I...

Which is funny, considering that in certain spots, it's really in reverse, in the sense of how indirect JPN can be vs that of the directness of ENG—the honed nature of the latter is missed for those who'd rather have ambiguity. All in all it depends on what people are criticizing—it varies a lot...

Yeah, which by the time we get this script his new mindset should be realized. My point was that using "dew" as a metaphorical threat to end the world is what doesn't make sense, in most of any context. It would need a lot more convincing context to illustrate this was meant to be understood...

One they'll eventually write epics about, I'm sure.

"Quenches" is essentially framed by that of the "become dew", which reading it as it is, while the word alone would make someone think "to end" the land, the cogs should turn when understanding it from what connotation can come from "dew". It may not fit a standard of good poetry, but there's...

A dew would be considered a miniscule drop of liquid, so it still coincides with the idea there if we're talking about size. It should be of note that in poetic/figurative settings, the way something is written can "cut corners" in what it's saying to sound a certain way. If someone has read it...

Yeah, "dew" should really be the signal that creates the implied "quenches [the thirst of] the land". Something good being given, like a "drop of hope" would compel. I'm also sure framing it this way of water and quenching with it thereof was probably inspired by the usage of 雫 [drop (of water)...

That doesn't lend to the idea of ranked significance to Resolution though my friends XD It's all just gameplay stuff and differing mechanic approaches. There's no sense in extrapolating purposes there from alt dresses to who has the preferred Resolution, this is a weird correlation. Especially...

@Eerie Why do that? I can inspect Aerith and Tifa's relationship with Cloud within this game for the sake of the story itself, but once I enter the territory of the purposeful setup of game mechanics for these Resolutions alongside it, the idea of there being a "preferred" makes no sense in...
