Ha. Glenn was actually my first thought, but I thought he was a bit too blonde. The hair color is closer to Genesis. Which matches my theory that he went back in time after Dirge to stop Seph. But seeing that robed Glenn look has me leaning Glenn again.

Who is robed goatee guy?

I thought TFS started 18 years ago. The trailer said it was 12 years after 30 years ago. Or does EC pick up a few years after that? Edit: Oh yeah. They graduate from the VR training with the player in the EoS of the original TFS, so it makes sense that it's a few years later.

It's still so weird that they made a ponytail Tseng model for Remake, and then just used the regular model in the flashback.

What gets me about Clay's death, is that, assuming the helicopter crash was before his scheduled vacation time, he was walking towards Midgar, on foot, wounded, for at least 10 days before finally dying, when Aerith sensed it. It was probably this single minded focus of getting to Elmyra that...

So Marle was apparently having adventures in the Slums at age 15. Which means she can't be much older than 50. (Page 116) Doesn't seem right. Cross checked with Peko's fan translation, and it doesn't specify the adventures being in the Slums. That would make more sense.

The translator is Stephen Kohler, the same guy who did DotF, and seems excellent at localizing. The books both read very naturally, instead of like awkward scripts, so I assume it's his doing. I look forward to getting to Picturing the Past, to see how different it feels. Finished the first...

Well, the OG mostly takes place in December/January. Not that seasons are ever acknowledged in the game. Maybe it was just Summer?

I unlocked Barrier Break at around 65%, and was red after that. So it's not specifically related to 95%. That's just when most people start farming Barrier enemies for the final ability.

Always having a limit or summon saved, just so you can reset her before she casts Judgement Arrow, and deal with it without Crimson Flares screwing you over was key to my strategy. That and Libra, so you know exactly when it's gonna happen. Otherwise, I just played slow and steady. Careful to...

Again? Guess getting delayed by a few months several times is normal for SE books. It was originally supposed to be out last month.

Wish they would've just used the original CC ending part with Aerith. It's a weird mishmash of awkward cuts now. And her body language still says she saw something spooky in the alleyway.

It just really does not bode well for any adaptations of violent scenes in the compilation. After Episode Yuffie wasn't so sanitized, I kinda had my hopes up. Hopefully Rebirth doesn't butcher the scene. Remake did Jenova real dirty.

Looks to me like it's just a box head in the tank. Hard to see though. It means that iconic shot of her face with the glowing eye will be completely ruined.

Pity to see all those fun glamor assets go. Was waiting for a console release to check this out, but can't say I care too much since I don't typically play PvP games. At least it'll live on in Ever Crisis.......for a while at least.

Right, but the destroying part is just kind of happenstance. He wants to open up a wound in the planet so he can absorb the Lifestream. It's a means to an end, and not his goal in itself.

He never wanted to destroy the planet. He wanted to turn it into his personal space ship. "What I want, Cloud, is to sail the darkness of the cosmos with this Planet as my vessel -- just as my mother did long ago."

It's just speculation at this point, but the hints are leaning very heavily in that direction to me.

Well, yes and no. It takes place in the same spot, but it's a different timeline. Events in it are likely happening because events in the future "already happened". Like the next cycle in a time loop is "after" the previous, but it's just repeated events.

Remake trilogy is clearly a new timeline with some weird timey wimey stuff going on. Popular idea is that post AC Seph sent his consciousness back in time through the lifestream or something. I could see post DoC events involving Genesis being the nexus of this time travel event, and everything...
