So I feel like FFVII fans tend to break down into SOLDIER fans, AVALANCHE fans, and Turk fans. Turks fans seem to stick together, get along and not have much drama or love triangle issues. Are we the harmonious side of the fandom?

Um, I'm sorry, but I'm a bit confused. What are you trying to argue? I'm really not following. Could you clarify. I understand if English isn't your first language and I don't mean to be harsh, I'm just not sure what you're saying. First of all, ShinRa was run by many people, the Board of...

As an IP nerd, can I just say I'm surprised they didn't Trademark Shinra sooner? I'd be happy if we got official Shinra merchandise in wake of this...

Good point, maybe instead of put down she would have been given to Hojo for augmentation, over the objections of the professor who began the no augmentation project. Maybe the professor who raised her pressed Veld to take her because he didn't want his "master piece" metaled with because he was...

Actually 13 doesn't seem shockingly young in a world where you can join the military around 13 or 14 (Zack is 16 at the beginning of CC right, this is a world where adult hood comes much earlier). My head canon is that Cissnei was literally raised Shinra as part of a social experiment...

You're welcome, yeah I'm a third year law student specializing in IP. My substantial paper is going to be comparing Japanese Doujinshi to western fanfic in terms of leniency among copy right holders and the benefit of allowing transformative use to be fair use. DA won't let you sell fan art...

I know the fan artist, he's on DA and Tumblr, his art is amazing I wish he'd do a Rufus blanket. As for Yes, I've missed this thread, we should discuss things and post pictures and fan fic links more, it will be fun.

True, but surely she wouldn't have to worry about seen as different by someone like Nanaki. I think if you're different it's easier to share with other people who are different too, and when it comes to trauma sharing with someone who might have similar experiences can be a great release because...

I tend to look at characters and only assume trauma if there are signs of it and it makes sense in light of a characters current behavior. I won't write trauma lightly, exploring it if it seems necessary to understand the character or likely to have occurred in light of how the character acts...

I guess it's just a difference of opinion, but when I played, and you can see the scene here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=42vJhik1mpU&list=PL85B216E81DDC1CF7 at about 10:35, what I see is Zack sees a girl corned my monsters and shouts "Hold On, I'm a - coming" Then moves to help her only be...

I read that as Reno intervening because Zack was being sexist and stupid. Zack wanted to run and save Cissnei, assuming she was a damsel who needed saving, and Reno's line was 'she's got it covered, she doesn't need your help." That's a great point. You're right, there could have been...

Unless the President intended to kill civilians, , in order to poison the name of AVALANCHE in the public mind, which is my suggestion. Of course, that's open to speculation, which was what I hoped to debate in this thread. In either case, it's mass murder as collateral damage or mass murder...

It's not genocide, it's mass murder, genocide means targeting a specific group. Sorry to get picky with semantics, I have a back ground in human rights law so terminology is important to me. Understanding the rational behind an action does not absolve the actors. AVALANCHE did not just kill...

The purpose of this thread is not to discuss the original game but to discuss Sector 7 in light of the entire Compilation, including the events of Before Crisis which I am taking as canon for the purpose of this discussion, and the Turks' characterization in the rest of the compilation. The...

As the debate on tumblr continued, it was questioned whether President Shinra's actions were motivated by fear and irrational insecurity, to which Licoriceallsorts responded that the President had never seemed afraid of anything, and had only been afraid for Rufus's safety. Read Whole Debate...

A few days ago, I made a post my blog, positing my view on President Shinra's rational for dropping the plate in light of the events of Before Crisis. A discussion spawned from that on tumblr through reblogs, but I think a form might be the best place for this debate (since reblogs can get...

*Head Desk* You know, they should have just introduced Cid at that point and had him fly Cloud to the Forgotten Capital so he could catch up with the Remnants who had a head start. That way the travel time would make sense and we could introduce the character to people unfamiliar with the story...

Game play wise I couldn't imagine exploring a Planet the size of Earth. Essentially, a game that involved walking great distances in real time or enough time that it felt like you’d traveled awhile would not be fun to play (For another example or games in real time with real distances, try...

That's also possible. I think it would depend on if he thinks the Turks have informed anyone else. Anyway, so I've decided to do an Ask Cosplay Blog over on tumblr for Rufus Shinra. Essentially, I'll answer questions in character as Rufus and include cosplay pics to go along with the...

I heard from someone that Jesse was originally going to be a spy and the cards failed because she intentionally rigged them to fail. I'm not completely sure how this would work? *shrug* I agree there should be a better reason to thwart the rocket (I honesty was never really clear on their...
