Of course, and it's entirely fair to use his track record as a predictor of future actions, but I also think it's only fair to account the EARTH SHATTERING FORMATIVE EXPERIENCE of seeing the world about to end before your eyes and being partially responsible. Rufus is at a crossroads right now...

Forgive me; I'm sort of projecting on you my universal response for a sentiment I see a lot of; "YOU SEE, RUFUS STILL WANTS POWER AND HE'S AMBITIOUS! HE'S STILL A BAD GUY" I see a lot in the fandom. But still, even if that's not what you're saying, I still interpret it differently; Rufus sees...

There's degrees to this, though, Octo. While I wouldn't buy the Emperor seeking forgiveness (he really was pure evil), Darth Vader did seek absolvement for his crimes and to a degree he did redeem himself. But if he did survive, it would be perfectly realistic for him to slowly seek and...

They could! And it looks like they are; organizations like the WRO are sort of proof of that. But look at it this way; is there any real functional difference between the WRO and a hypothetical 'Not Evil Shinra'? I'd say not much. Shinra brought organization, economy, structure, and culture. Any...

Having Shinra back doesn't mean Rufus Shinra sitting on his ivory tower, eating grapes, though. It doesn't have to mean Rufus coming back to run the company at all. I do think Rufus is a capable and competent enough leader to truly reform (at least, enough) to get the world moving in a better...

If anything that gives them depth and consistency. It was established pretty early that the Turks have no real personal beef with AVALANCHE. Yes you do and yes I can imagine it, because it happens all the time even in real life with real world empires (antagonistic or no) What would happen if...

Note: It's been a long time since I've originally played FFVII (when I was like, 12) and it's been a long time since I've posted in this thread. I can admit to the fact that FFVII's writing doesn't exactly have very much depth, even compared to later titles and especially compared to say...

Thanks for the shout out! That post sums up some of my strongest feelings towards FFVII (the slums), and that has never changed, since I first played FFVII at 12 years old, and even now, at 29 (and lo and behold I'm actually working through a FFVII playthrough now), and ditto for Crisis Core...

You know what adults enjoy? Whatever the fuck they want.

lol this looks straight titty, fam whats the budget for this shit?

There's a tiny part of me that is starting to think that Trump doesn't believe half of the shit he said during the campaign and only said it to get elected. I remember Trump for my entire life before this/last year; he's always been pretty liberal; not entirely so, but a lot of the shit he's...

This is all well and good, but those same people still have voting power and something must be actually done unless we want to see people like Trump voted into office forever. She requested it.

Yeah so just fuck everything I guess. Good job.

So Trump not taking the job seriously and at least trying to do what's best for America and instead letting Mike "electrocute the gays" Pence enact policy would be the best case scenario? What?

This is true. Sometimes it's also far simpler; for example, Trump appealed to the working class demographic, and Clinton didn't, almost at all, it seemed. As I mentioned before, I'm from a Rust Belt state; the demographic of out of work blue collar frustrated with being jobless and broke is...

Oh, to clarify, I am in no way saying that being in the military is 'above' being a civilian, I just used that as an example of any profession or position that gives you a wealth of perspective and information that you wouldn't have otherwise.

No, but it's possible. I'm not COUNTING ON THIS SHIT mind you, but like I said, Trump had this real solemn look on his face all day today after his visit to the White House. Something shook him, and maybe he'll attempt to take the shit seriously. I'd say majorly so, or rather a big...

While I don't think he actually believes a lot of the shit that came out of his mouth for the past year, for other reasons, Donald Trump is a piece of shit as a person. However, if And this is a pretty big if here... ...If, Donald Trump sees the weight of the entire free world on his...

Apparently Trump was like that all day. He apparently got a huge info dump during his visit to the White House that's making him more and more aware that this shit ain't a game.

I don't think anyone is saying otherwise...We're saying that some people who voted for Trump did it for reasons other than 'being racist!' and those reasons must be examined. It's easy to dismiss Trump's success to racism and that's it but that will lead us nowhere, because the same people who...
