    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    I think do Corel and Fort Condor without them, and do the Underwater Reactor and Rocketown/Space with them. But I think we should visit Rocketown to get introduced to Shera and maybe have that Palmer fight while Cid is the leader.

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    I really feel like having the failures of the Big Materia stuff AFTER the Lifestream is actually a good thing. It shows that, with real Cloud at their side, they are ready to face anything, even future failures. That even if the world is ending, they have each other.

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    I didn't realize you could have no one either. I texted my brother when he was in Chapter 8: "Who came to your door!?" He said: "...No one?" lol sad

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    Yesssss. I just saw this last night. I think the lyrics are about: the water tower promise, some angst about when Cloud came back to Nibelheim and hid from Tifa, the Gold Saucer date, the Lifestream and Under the Highwind.

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    Returning to the Forgotten Capital and Nibelheim would be great post Lifestream. Maybe the party walks Cloud through these areas so he can relive these memories. The Forgotten Capital for himself, and relay what happened with Zack at Nibelheim to the rest of the party. Also, it would be an...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    You make some interesting points and I felt similarly. And this is coming from someone who didn't particularly like Aerith in the OG - Remake turned me around on her and I enjoyed her a lot more than I thought I would. From what I've been seeing, those who liked her in Remake tend to like her...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    For sure. I love him. I'm not a Kingdom Hearts fan, so I can't speak to those things, but dude created a lot of my other favorite things and has supposedly kept Retrilogy on the rails and talked Kitase out of killing most of the main party in the OG. Similarly I love Nojima, and I wasn't sure...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    Also I could totally see Nomura figuring out that people would figure out Part 3 would be Reunion, so he calls Crisis Core remaster Reunion to fake us out, thinking "okay, now Part 3 can't be called Reunion" and then it's called Reunion anyway. Oh I love him.

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    I agree with you. The name Reunion would work on multiple levels. You've got the big ones like: reunion of JENOVA happening at the Northern Crater, the reunion of Zack and Aerith, the reunion of Tifa and Cloud, the reunion of Cloud and his identity. It could also be applied to smaller less...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    Right now I'm planning on doing a second playthrough from scratch. I did all of the odd jobs except for the Shinra Manager Gold Saucer stuff, but I didn't do some of the other things, like all of the intel and Protorelic stuff. I'll do my obsessive completionist playthrough now where I do...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    He wasn't able to do that with Tifa though, which is interesting. I think that shows that Sephiroth still needed something from Aerith, so he relinquished some control. But he knows that Tifa is really in his way, so he pushed him at Gongaga. Edit: Oh and there was that huge amount of Mako at...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    Aerith called out to Cloud when he was raising his sword to kill Elena, and it took Tifa physically wrapping her arms around him to stop him. This is Elena, who has been a foe the entire game, and even then he's not fully snapped out of it because he just uses the excuse that there's "no time"...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    I guess some of the hardcore CA’s are posting Cloud shoving Tifa in The Temple of the Ancients over and over again with the cry/laugh emoji. Like it’s a gotcha moment or something. And saying that only Aerith can snap Cloud out of it. Same with Zack apparently being heartbroken when Marlene...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    Also with the angst we got at the end of Rebirth, as well as the inevitable angst coming in Part 3, after the Lifestream Sequence we better get some hopeful stuff. I know Meteor has been summoned at this point and the world feels like it's ending, but in the OG there was still a sense of hope...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    A duet would be lovely. Something that can be about both Cloud and Tifa and Aerith and Zack. Something about reuniting. Zack and Aerith in another world/lifestream, and Tifa and real!Cloud. Anyone think that part 3 could still be called Reunion even though they gave that subtitle to Crisis Core?

    Did they really say no DLC for Remake and then do it anyway?

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    I really think Zack is just super confused. As far as he knows Cloud and Aerith have never met. Cloud is still the young man from Nibelheim that Zack has to constantly protect and take care of. And the way Marlene answers "Yeah, she likes him." is very casual and childlike. I think Zack takes it...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    The developers said that the Zack things are to show how the universe of FFVII works. There is also a very interesting NPC conversation you can overhear in Cosmo Canyon. A woman talks about how the Lifestream isn't made up of just memories but also of hopes and dreams, and that it can't...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    As I sort of hinted at in my lengthy post above, within full context, I feel like the ending is actually truly about Cloud and him losing it. I think we'll get closure in Part 3 about Aerith's death. I think we'll see the burial scene then. Perhaps when we revisit (and hopefully get to explore)...

    SPOILERS LTD Remake — It's like New Coke except ... no, it's exactly like New Coke

    Well, I beat the game finally. After seeing the full ending, and in context, I am not at all convinced that the multiverse is a thing. Right now, I feel like 95% of the screwy stuff is in Cloud's head. We've seen his "headaches" since the very beginning of Remake, during the first bombing...
