I have the nagging sensation that this surge of "content"(?) would have happened regardless of how Tifa's redesign looked like.

Completely unrelated to the current topic but still related to the thread: has anyone figured anything regarding a potential meaning in the runes engraved in Tifa's bracers? I tried to find the proper norse characters and convert them into roman alphabet, but all I was ending up with was some...

Regarding the damage / death toll from the explosion of a reactor: if you consider most industrial disasters, while detonations can be deadly, most deaths would be caused by the collapse of buildings or shrapnels, rather than the shockwave itself. In the past, catastrophic detonations have...

Aw, come on... Who specifically was in charge of Midgar city planning?

In terms of content, one thing I would like to see in the remake is the presence of media - radio, TV, internet if there is one. Of course, you'd have the "Shinra touch" on the media, but it doesn't have to be glaring. They could simply broadcast mostly game shows and other entertainment...

It goes to show that the city planning of Midgar really is a disaster. IRL you would not plan to have power plants or chemical plants in the vicinity of housing complexes, for safety purposes. And when it becomes unplanned, well... And Cait Sith of all people is the one calling Barret out!? Who...

Ok, I'll see myself out.

Let's have some tasteful product placement while we're at it! :mon:

Man, I laughed and shuddered at the same time. Sounds like you've been around the darkest recesses of fanfic.net a little too much.:huh:

I wonder if we should try and display a count-up from E3 2015 to put things in perspective :wacky:

Re: Gaia or not Gaia: while I'm totally ok with the world of FF VII being "the Planet", I was wondering if anyone had some info on the following item: On the one hand... On the other hand, there is an area in the game called "Gaea's Cliff", which reeks of a transcription error from "Gaia's...

Probably not a popular opinion, but I personally wish that after the Midgar raid, you'd be given ~ 1 in-game week before the Meteor crashes (with the whole "bad-ending CGI cutscene") if you keep screwing around. It often breaks my immersion whenever there's a conflict between a story that...

Video gaming logic has it that defeating Sephiroth never was the simplest way to stop the Meteor. All it actually took was to keep playing mini-games and breeding chocobos till the end of time.

Cherenkov radiation FTW! Anyway, I personally had a very odd pet peeve regarding the OG interiors of mako reactors, because they defied how someone would actually design walkways, guardrails and ladders in an actual power plant. In real life, you shouldn't have to do any "platforming" to check...

The poster featuring the "Clear Icicle" mineral water really caught my eye, since during my work for Team Avalanche I had imagined a particular beer brand

I think that in that respect, one big difference between the OG and the remake is voice acting. I realize that with voice acting, a flashback can just be told as part of a dialogue between characters, and be conveyed in a powerful manner. Characters in games like Dragon Age would just tell their...

One way to expand the Midgar scenario would be to begin the game earlier, when Tifa finds Cloud stranded and catatonic on the platform of the slums 7 station. The issue would be that you wouldn't get to begin the game with the iconic opening scene that we all know and love, but on the plus side...

To be honest, I've been mostly out of touch with the modding community since I had retired from it in the wake of E3 2015. People very occasionally poked me for help once every 6 months and I provided support, but that's about it. I'm not sure how things are now, but in the recent years, a fair...

Man, some of these screenshots / concept arts reminds me so much of working with the guys of Team Avalanche. Good times.

I always had the personal interpretation that Cloud's desire to join SOLDIER wasn't just for the sake of impressing Tifa - he first needed to accomplish something that would impress himself. Achieving this goal was a means of overcoming his crippling lack of self-confidence.
