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

    They could honestly just make it playable DLC tbh. It doesn't need to be a movie, just as long as it overwrites ACC lol

    Hamaguchi said it would be a dream come true to remake it, so I'm definitely hoping it happens 😭

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

    I don't know if I can compromise but it's not like I get a choice anyway ... 🥲 Yeah, exactly. They're finally going to cover it within the scope of the OG itself so.... can we replace ACC with something else? Maybe? Please?? Let's wipe it out of canon, besties!! Woooo lmaooo it can stay for...

    You and I are on the same wavelength there, my friend. CHEERS!!

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

    Right? It drives me nuts lol and I bet it drives Nojima nuts too. As for chronology.... I had the same thought but since the devs claim RT is the same as OG maybe it'll be more like... CC - OG - ACC - DOC ↳ - RT - ???

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

    Absolutely and I wholeheartedly agree w/ you. The issue with OTWTAS and ACC, as many people have pointed out before me, is that it's basically a redo of Cloud's arc in condensed format w/ bad execution. While there's nothing wrong with Cloud having to re-learn that he's not alone/doesn't have...

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

    YES TO EVERYTHING. The twitter discourse, which I was apart of bc I'll stand ten toes down on criticizing Cloud (AND BARRET) in CoT and ACC, drove me insane because everyone missed the point. I know why Cloud left. I know why he shut Tifa out. I know that he thought he was doing what was was...

    Exactly! I've said it so many times but I'm sick of the fandom woobifying him. He doesn't need to be defended or protected. Yes, he has his reasons for doing certain things and acting a certain way but that doesn't mean he's justified in doing so. And the narrative never justifies it, so it's...

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

    What a lot of people (aka Cloud stans) dont understand is that the game is showing you how flawed of a person he is. You're not supposed to be on his side when he chooses to be rude to Aerith, shut Tifa out/question her existence, callously brush Yuffie's trauma off, insult Zack, etc. Like these...

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

    Yeah, Cloud specifically tells Sephiroth to "return" the village to him before he kills him in the reactor in CC, at least. So it doesn't seem that he's traumatized by the village or the people in it. If anything, he secretly loves his village. He's just a grumpy lil kid who didn't want to share...

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

    Yeah, precisely. They think it's admirable and they encourage Tifa to be just like Claudia too. They have a lot of sympathy for the fact that she lost her husband on the mountain and had to raise Cloud alone. They seemed to rally around her and support her, not ostracize her. But a loooot of the...

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

    Yes, that. And they seem to have this idea that Brian and the people of Nibelheim are prejudiced against the Strifes in general. I've heard this so much that even I just accepted it for a long time but when I actually went looking for proof.... there's none and if anything Nojima only debunked...

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

    Reminds me that I've been having some frustrating convos with people on twitter lately about Tifa, Brian, and Nibelheim in general. There seems to be this pervasive thought of the characters and story that expands beyond actual canon. I guess it's just well accepted fanon that's existed over the...

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

    The Dirge of Cerberus character sheet/guide also describes Zack and Aerith as Cloud's "best friends" who sacrificed their lives for him. I would assume 'best friends' is translated from the same 'Taisetsunahito' term. The chances of Aerith NOT being playable to some degree in part 3 seem very...

    Ah yes, you're right. It was a quest, not the chapter! Ty

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

    They dialed their original intentions back a TON because initially the chapter was going to be called Crisis Core and be full of Zack references. This is why I laugh about ppl saying 'Hollow' isn't about Zack bc it's one of the references to him that was left in the chapter, as well as the kids...

    Yeah, 'cause I'd be pissed about this too. Why are you making my friends murder about you? No offense to Cloud lol

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

    This reminds me of how one of the most popular CA fanart from the 2000s is a flip on the scene in CoT where TIFA is crying at Aerith's grave and Cloud is comforting her. But in the fanart, CLOUD is crying and Tifa is comforting him/looking conflicted. And it just goes to show how much this...

    To be fair, the devs themselves say that the story of LOVELESS represents Zack and that wrote a whole breakdown for why/how in the CC ultimania lmao but I agree that the symbolism can get rather confusing
