Yeah, I always thought he was a time bomb waiting to explode. To be fair, growing up in a lab with Hojo breathing down his neck and being used as a mass murdering machine since he hit puberty or something probably didn't help him react in the most well-adjusted way :mon: though that's no excuse...

He may not be the most multi-faced character, but I like Sephiroth because he’s in complete control of the narrative, and you only realize the extent of it on subsequent playthroughs. Some things that we can infer about him are written in a rather indirect way, which is very interesting for a...

Yeah, FFIX's map was great. These days I usually look the chocographs up on the internet in my replays, but the first time I did it legit and it was hard but rewarding. Exploring the world was just so fun. I have to disagree on FFVIII's ending, though I get why it's not everyone's cup of tea...

"B-baka!!!!" What Sephira said :mon:

But by Barret's own admission, his underlying intentions were far from noble and weren't about the planet at all. He needed to do something with all the rage he felt. Unfortunately, he chose the wrong way and convinced everyone, including himself, that it was for a good cause. He then used said...

If one had to morally approve of all the characters they like, there would be very few people left to like in this game. :mon: Me, I look at it this way: it's not always about liking characters as people. It's not like I have to grab a coffee with them and be their friend. It's about what I...

As much as I love the game and its silliness, I have to say I wouldn't mind it terribly if the whole Huge Materia subplot got heavily rewritten. It's not just that some things don't make sense (which they don't, as this thread proves), it's all a bit… unconvincing? The Corel segment in...

Well, I think Dio says he's the owner of the Gold Saucer, but that might be a slight mistranslation and he might just be the curator/director or something. If you check the map at the main "hub" terminal in Gold Saucer, you can read a series of promotional messages on the various attractions...

… Seriously? Ugh.

I was thinking about this the other day, actually. I follow a FF page on Facebook and when news about that new FFXV mobile game was posted, I noticed that most people’s sentiment could be summarized in “Can we please move on?” It reminded me of all those years where everything SE released...

I thought that was a given :monster: I don’t even an account and I haven't been in years, but I remember that when I was starved for information about the remake and I was really bored I would go there to read dozens of pages after pages of creative insults and people going on and on and on...

I don't think she necessarily thought about him non-stop for 7 years, but her interest was piqued that night, and over the years those thoughts and her ideas of Cloud muddled in her brain so much that she ended up believing they were really close friends as children – and of course you’d...

Agreed. It's also the culmination of her arc, the moment when she can finally put her past to rest, when she realizes that in the worst night of her life she was not alone – that someone had been looking after her the whole time, feeling her own pain, trying to save her against all the odds. And...

Ah, sorry, I wasn't very clear. As headcanon I only meant the part about Jenova's involuntary involvement in creating the Black Materia. I think Ifalna is our best source on these matters so far. Regarding that quote from the FF wiki, welp, didn't know about that. I don't remember anything like...

Well, they weren't all extinguished by Jenova. A good number of them must have survived for Ifalna to be the last "full Cetra" 2000 years later. I agree that Gast's recordings were probably the best chance for the game to explicitly talk about this (if it's even true, I admit it's just a...

Was it built before Jenova's arrival, though? It's certainly thousands of years old, but so is Jenova. The Ancients/Cetra were very much alive and kicking when Jenova crashed on the planet, they weren't a long-lost civilization yet.

Yeah, I low-key assumed that Jenova and the Black Materia were at least loosely connected, too. It's just too convenient that the Ultimate Destructive Magic and one of the worst threats to the planet's life just happened to involve a meteor. And I think it works lorewise too: materia is indeed...

I know that the conversation has moved on, but you know, I remember the Genesis Awards (I was also on LJ, ha, I feel old). I only used the forums as an additional tool to browse through that huge monstrosity that is fanfiction.net, as word of mouth and people's favorites were pretty much the...

Clessie is definitely going to be a thing in the fandom, regardless of how their interactions are handled in the Remake. Surprisingly enough, I had a friend who was into them as a couple ages ago :P I think she even wrote a few fics about them and about the very minor named characters of the...

Thank you. Someone told me that the ending of the actual game had been leaked or something, so I wanted to check. I guess misinformation and fear are running rampant after such a colossal screw up.
