So I'm sure somebody else has already made this observation, but it just now occured to me. When Cloud arrived at The Edge Of Creation he starts to spaz out, just like throughout the rest of the game when he'd recieve an inexplicable glance at the future. But this time he doesn't see anything...

Stormdancer, by Jay Kristoff. It's basically a mix of Japanese mythology and steampunk. You've got griffons, airships, demons, chainsaw katanas and also regular katanas, and a bit of magic to boot. Really cool stuff

I did that, and yes, he fired just the same as if he had a gun. It's pretty funny

It's not about skill per se. The reason Sephiroth isn't moving around and jumping and spinning, is because he just does not need to. It's not just skill, he's also much faster and stronger than Cloud. Even if Cloud matched Sephiroth's skill, he would still get his ass kicked for the simple...

Damage is also a shit metric since the amount of damage an enemy can do will change depending on what difficulty you play on. You're own damage and hit point pool can vary wildly depending on how much you grind. One player might grind a bunch and subsequently shit all over a boss fight. Another...

I think it's important to remember that there are more than two levels of skill a swordsman can have. It's not just skilled and unskilled. It's entirely possible for swordsman one to be a skilled fighter, but still be nowhere near as skilled as swordsman two. That's what we're seeing with Cloud...

I mean, all SOLDIER members essentially have dead people juice and Cthulhu DNA injected into them. It'd be strange if they didn't act like a bunch of weirdos

I just went through the OG recently, and I think my biggest issue is that after you're first trip to the northern crater, the plot loses its sense of focus until almost the very end. Up to that point you were actively pursuing Sephiroth for most of the game. Then after the crater he throws up a...

Like is a strong word, but I don't hate Genesis myself. He's just kinda there, ya know? The ultimate case of a shrug and a whatever before moving on to more interesting characters.

I don't think it's any different than in the OG, at least not on a fundamental level. Sephiroth could force Cloud to help him via mind control, but the thought of mind fucking Cloud so hard and breaking him so completely that he'd willingly and knowingly help Sephiroth, as he did when he gave...

Well sure, nothing is really stopping it from being that balls out. That doesn't change the fact that the balls were previously only half out. The reasons why doesn't effect the fact that the overall portrayal has changed. And it's not a bad thing necessarily, in fact it make for some...

Well yeah, there's obviously gonna be a certain degree of inconsistency between what we can do as players and what the characters are portrayed as being capable of. For example, if Cloud could jump the way he does in cutscenes when we control him, we'd be able to easily skip huge chunks of the...

Limit breaks aren't the most reliable thing though for gauging strength. Iirc one of Tifa's has her run around the entire planet to punch a guy. Even at it's most over the top the compilation has never shown a character do something like that. I feel like some degree of superhuman stuff is to...

I meant in the sense that while they are demonstrating superhuman strength and agility in this scene, they aren't leaping entire buildings or chopping them in half. Sephiroth is knocking Cloud back, but he isn't sending him flying hundreds of feet through the air like a human rocket. The...

So, just a random thought I had, but I feel like the duel between Cloud and Sephiroth at The Edge Of Creation was a lot closer to what I thought combat between two first class fighters in the FFVII universe would look like based on how things are depicted in the og, as opposed to the battle we...

I put my money on part 2 ending at the northern cave. This makes the most sense. Part one ends as the goal shifts from "defeat Shinra" to "hunt Sephiroth." Part two therefore should cover the entire hunt for Sephiroth, and end as we transition to the new goal of "Find a way to stop Meteor."

My wife has never touched a FF game in her life (hates turn based gameplay and isn't big on anime styled things) but I got her to try Remake. Next thing I know shes finished Remake, started a playthrough of the original, and has a PSP and a copy of Crisis Core due to arrive in the mail sometime...

Does anybody know what the music that plays during the cutscene just before the final battle is called?

I mean, it could be as simple as Cloud saying to himself "Ok, I fought Sephiroth. I don't remember what happened, but given the circumstances Sephiroth would not have let me live, and the newspapers and such all report Sephiroth dying around the same time I fought him, so logically I must have...

Hell House is absolutely phenomenal. The new Jenova theme, OWA, and Those Chosen By The Planet are also great. Edit: Almost forgot, Seven Seconds Until The End is one of the best pieces of FF music period
