    Garland BT+ is *really* fun. Having his awesome BT effect twice in a fight makes for very fun crazy damage out of the rest of the team. And more consistent delay out of him is always fun.

    Final Fantasy VII: The First Soldier

    I'd certainly say that by the era of the Compilation, Sephiroth was no longer seen as the "first" SOLDIER. Mako *had* been around as a a known substance for quite a few decades by the time he was born and I have a *really* hard time not seeing someone in the Science Deparment playing around with...

    Final Fantasy VII: The First Soldier

    DG was a thing ever since Genesis was born... which was slightly before Sephiroth was born. So DG is *definetly* a thing by this point. We even have Rosso and Nero's birth years and both of them were born in DG. If anything... I"m more concerned with with being tied into DG somehow on the...

    Final Fantasy VII: The First Soldier

    @Makoeyes987 I keep hoping that there *will* be a DG Solider skin just for kicks for that exact reason.

    Final Fantasy XVI

    No PC version until 2023 makes total sense. Heck, early 2023 could even make sense for the console release technically speaking. That would still be a far shorter media coverage time than nearly all modern new FF games. Yoshida has said that FFXVI would only need one more big trailer for it's...

    Ori and the Blind Forest

    It is an amazing experience. It's like... playing a painting that moves. The OST is one of the best game OSTs out of the West in ages.

    Theory Videos and other interesting shit

    I have *never* seen 意志 (ishi) related to Jenova in any lore book entry I've looked at... or about any of the Clones related to her. 意思 (ishi) turns up fairly often, particularly when it comes to Jenova's (or Angeal or Genesis) "intentions" influencing the "intentions" of their clones. So...

    Locke & Key totally got a Netflix series that releases on Feb 7th!

    The 2nd Season of this released! What a nice thing to find on Netflix the week of Halloween!

    Theory Videos and other interesting shit

    @Ryeleigh Jenova is... similar... only... Jenova doesn't have to "consume" *anything* to mimic it. She can just pick out what she is mimicking from someone's head so long as they're in the same vicinity of her... which is considerably large since her body doesn't have to stay in one piece. It...

    Theory Videos and other interesting shit

    The Lifestream is made of "spiritual energy"... which really is... well... think of it as the hard-drive for the Planet's Memories. All the memories of everything that has lived (and as of Remake, will live?) are stored on there after they die. Jenova/Sephiroth is described as "eroding" it after...

    Theory Videos and other interesting shit

    The Planet itself is presented as being fine 500 years later. It's not at a "natural" end of its lifespan anymore than person in their twenties whose cancer that was in remission flared up, has a bunch of bleeding wounds and and who just got hit by a car is not at the end of their natural...

    Theory Videos and other interesting shit

    The word used for "drive" and in *many* other situations to do with Jenova is 意思. It has the sense of "intention/wish/purpose", if more of those being feelings than something that is decided on. So it's something like... "It [Jenova] has an instinctive intention to destroy the Planet" This is...

    Final Fantasy VIII General Discussion

    That's how I played FF8 the first time through. If you have a head for Triple Triad, it's a lot of fun.

    The Final Fantasy XIV Thread [Dawntrail - 7.00]

    The FFXIV community is eyeing when Sakaguchi gets to Shadowbringers with *much* anticipation. Several FFXIV fans have noted how this has now come full circle. A lot of the FFXIV devs grew up playing Sakaguhi's FF games and that inspired them to go into game development in the first place. And...

    The Five Bosses of Godo's Pagoda

    This is my favorite Yuffie moment in probably the entire Compilation... I always found it interesting that the other Five Gods of Wutai are there for this moment and their reaction isn't getting mad at Godo for how the situation turned out... but instead to sympathize with him and even wonder...

    Final Fantasy VII: The First Soldier

    The biggest retcon I have found so far in Remake is the starting date of the Reunion Project. In the OG (and all the way up to and including Crisis Core!) Hojo never made any Sephiroth Copies *before* Sephiroth died. It was only after Sephiroth died that he decided to test the Reunion Theory and...

    I've been on this hecking website for 10 years

    Heh... it really *has* been a long time. It's been great hanging out with you all online and tossing theories back and forth for the last decade!

    Did Hojo manipulate Lucrecia? [split from Repository of Debunked Rumors]

    She was "pushed over the edge" a long time ago. It's worth pointing out that she has *no control* over her own immortality. It's that the *Jenova* in her that won't let her die even when she herself wants too.

    The Five Bosses of Godo's Pagoda

    Applying Anime logic to FF7 works... very well. So them being a theater-themed quirky mini-boss squad... yeah... it fits. Also... the thing Yuffie is annoyed about is how Wutai is a *tourist* town now and not a military empire. So in a metaphoric way, Wutai as a whole is acting out their own...
