    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    I don't think this is the right place to ask, as the people who post here are already quite actively attached to the outcome of the LTD and have been fighting deep in the trenches for a long while lol. Even I myself feel like I'm too entrenched in this - born from nostalgia that FFVII is a...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    I've seen Zack and Tifa can end up with each other because Tifa is too depressive for Cloud and Zack is too high energy for Aerith Tifa is a person better off alone because its a good story for her to learn to be strong and independent Tifa can have Cloud in one timeline and Aerith can have...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    The thing I don't understand about the people who say the date being "only fanservice" and Aerith's date is the only "canon route as what developers intended" is that they're clearly didn't care what the devs were saying that they were especially careful about how they wanted to depict each...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    Side note, I know everyone is so excited about the Ultimania, but is this the same Ben Sabin who does the translations for Remake and Rebirth? He did a long lecture about how game companies should explicitly embrace sex scenes and not cop out with fade to black? Somehow that makes me laugh a...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    I'm gonna throw my hat into the ring as well that Tifa and Aerith's friendship could have been written better and more women could have been in the writer's room. But....would it really be better if they were more friendly? What if the game showed them being incredibly close at the end, Aerith...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    Well to be very very fair to a brand new gamer, with no context whatsoever to the OG games - if I'm just beginning by playing Remake it just feels like I've been given 3 options of women who seem to really like me. I get a train roll with one and it looks like they almost kiss, I get a kiss on a...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    Regarding NPTK, ngl, I was pretty sure it was for Zack, then I was like, yeah, I guess it could be Aerith's song to express what she felt for Cloud, as it links up to the ending and the dream date, and the whole "like like", and the fact that they hold hands on their date, and hold hands at the...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    This is the same Marlene that tells Barret she'll be be a good kid to Cloud & Tifa - that they'll be her "parents", right? Going by twitter, is that proof she changes her shipping preference sometime 1 year between FFVII and Advent children from Cloud/Aerith to Cloud/Tifa? I guess I think it's...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    The continued use of platonic scenes of hands reaching out from the white light should be enough to dispel any of the "he wants to die to be with her" no? Barret reaches out to Tifa in the white light Aerith reaches out to Tifa in the white light Heck even Angeal reaches out to Zack in the...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    Funny, I didn't play the first two Witcher games, so I had no emotional attachment to Triss. But how Yen was presented was with the big opening cut scene + within 10 minutes there's a scene of Geralt naked in the bathtub and her ass on display, I thought "well, she must be the main love...

    No one actually believes Barret/Tifa are a thing except those who don't want Cloud/Tifa to be a thing, let's be real

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    Interesting. I wonder if that's their way of leading people down a "canon" route. I'm inclined to believe that all dates are canon, just like how i felt in remake all resolutions are canon, but from a story telling pov, my hypothesis is that casual players will be lead to a particular direction...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    Then, did the Clerith influencers actually understand the story, and are they real fans of the series? And let's be for real, if a company puts you on their payroll to be excited for their products and you get upset over shipping and go on ranty streams, you're probably not aligned to the brand...

    I've seen the video of Cloud and Tifa in Gongaga, its non optional but what I saw was in German but essentially Basically, they probably reused the assets from this Cliji scene

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    Perhaps a gentler way to look at Aerith's behavior without demonizing her as "backstabbing, boyfriend stealing person, who has no loyalty to Zack" in Rebirth (if what I get from the leaks is correct) is that she is HAS already been constantly trying to suss out Cloud and Tifa's relationship to...

    It's not the nakama stuff and the semantics of it and oh Nakama has been used for Tifa, and obsure anime abcd used nakama for a couple that ended up canon so therefore, nakama can be lovers eventually. its But the way its set up is, every shipper gets to have their fun, everyone gets their...

    I never really used to care much for Aerith, but damn, I want part 3 to give her the happiest reunion with Zack because oouuff I never expected them to end the LTD this way

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    But in 1997 Cloud/Player WAS the blank slate, boring center of the universe main character where all the girls available fell in love with him. I feel Remake/Rebirth IS trying to balance what is true to the essence of OG (romance all the girls, date mechanics, sexist jokes, steal women's...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    I dunno why people get so worked up about a line that says both girls get equal importance. Equal is not the same? 6+5+1 is equal to 3+2+7 but the combination of numbers is totally different. The composition of emotional gravity, character motivations, Clouds responses are all going to be...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    I'm afraid I won't be able to resist choosing all the bad options, because I think those would elicit the funniest responses. :D But when I think the current date mechanics do a pretty good job of giving everyone the fan service they want, while the plot is still tight. - Your options don't...
