I agree, I don't really see how discussing her opinion is any different to discussing someone like Tim Rogers opinion. They're professionals in gaming journalism and critique so thats just part of their job and their views are open to discussion. This site is fairly chill and sane, if it was...

3 parts, probably City of the Ancients or Northern Crater.

I don't think anyone was being malicious, just discussing it, and because she's part of a major gaming publication I think it's fair to discuss. Other sites can be quite unhinged and yeah, on those places, I get it. But here, neah.

I totally agree. If this was business as usual, I'd just be going through the motions with it and it would be cool and everything. But this is something else, I enjoy trying to figure it out and its now more intense. I think this is a full on sequel, but in a groundhog day that allows it to be...

I don't know. I have a theory (because, of course I do). I've said a few times that I think both Aerith and Sephiroth exist as entities outside of the normal living world, and are in some way their AC/post AC counterparts, the OG events have already occurred and this is taking place post...

You're not the only one who found her annoying... I found her irritating even as a teenager, and she was benched along with Cait Sith. I've not played Integrade yet, but she looks fun to play in Remake, and I didn't mind the humour in her introduction. So, hopefully she will be more enjoyable...

I didn't mean a war with Wutai, but they said they're expanding Wutais role and I was wondering whether that, whatever it may be, would be part 3.

If they go to Northern Crater, or even CotA, then maybe Wutai will be the focus of part 3? We're also assuming that 3 parts will take us further, a lot of the final disk was that huge materia quest and side quests.

Also, because it came to me. If it turns out Aerith is evil at the end of remake or something like that, then I called it in back 1997. I named her "Satan" because I thought it was funny, and thought she was weird, when I was kid. So, I'll claim this theory now.

Sephiroth offering his hand to Cloud, and asking him to join him in defying destiny together. Also, the whole "embrace me, don't deny me" thing. That's classic cinematic foreshadowing. Doesn't mean it'll happen mind, but it wouldn't surprise me, and if it did then I don't think it would be...

The end of part 1 foreshadowed him stepping onto the dark side. So I wouldn't be at all surprised if he does become an antagonist, at least for a while. I think it could be more impactful that way, and can get rid of the whole silent Tifa thing. The protagonist witholding information trope is...

Same here, it was going on for quite a bit with First Soldier, talking and Merch. I started thinking, we aren't getting it, are we? Me thinks the videos pacing was intentional. Lol

I think a good modern example would be stuff like The Witcher. You can play any Witcher game without reading the novels and understand whats going on, despite it acting as a sequel. You can also play The Witcher games in any order and understand whats going on without playing the others despite...

While I know its technically a misconception, its also not so far removed from reality. His mind is a garbolled mess of real, Jenova stuff, and Zacks stories; and these tend to lean into him believing Zacks past is his. Sorry for multiposts, multi-quote doesn't like my phone.

Thats an interesting take. I also think @Makoeyes987 is onto something and its interesting. I don't see how its not going to have some pretty profound implications as to how this plays out compared to OG though.

If you're just speculating and are going to enjoy the ride either way, then thats great. However, if you're hanging on for it being close to the original, then I'd probably be more open minded to avoid disappointment. The end of part 1, how Aerith framed the trailer, the callbacks to Aeriths...

On this, I'm leaning into wanting this to be a gambit between Sephiroth and Aerith wanting to remove a corrupted Minerva and take her place.

Neah. In multipart series and sequels, they're often created so that people unfamiliar can jump in without having to go through everything before it. But those who have experienced everything before will have a greater understanding of whats going on. This is often publisher mandated, or...

I've been mulling over this myself. From my perspective, a lot of the 4 parts thing has been considering how long it would take to recreate the world and that content will be heavily expanded like Midgar was. I don't know.

My predictions, because some of that was pretty on the nose:
