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

    Yuffie's kind of stood out to me as being sort of...especially cruel? Like beyond being just a traumatic memory. Sonon not being in the Lifestream proper makes sense though.

    Hamaguchi literally got promoted, I wouldn't be too worried. I feel for anyone suffering for layoffs though :(

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

    I've been gone for a bit. I made a Twitter account for FF7 fandom stuff and immediately regretted it 😅 I re-read Traces of Two Pasts...I really loved the part where Tifa is thinking about the water tower. It's all so sweet :) As others have said I think it's more like...traumatized people who...

    I understand all of it, but like...leaving without saying anything is ...probably the most hurtful thing he could have done, I think. I get that he's depressed, but...

    Honestly I just cannot get over Cloud LEAVING. Leaving is insane. Tifa is 21, 22 in AC? Running the bar, taking orders/requests for the delivery service, Barret leaves Marlene with her, Cloud adopts Denzel and leaves him with her, and then he goes off to Aerith's church? And Denzel gets a...

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

    I don't looove ACC, and I find the English localization and performances in some places to be very poor, but when Tifa says "you don't like being alone, you need to let people in. You never pick up the phone, but I don't see you throwing it away, either" (or whatever, I'm paraphrasing), that's...

    Gacha will continue to exist further into infinity, and beyond. I have been asking for the Aerith/Tifa/Cissnei lesbian cottagecore throuple since 2007. Please, Square Enix. Give the fans what they want.

    I finally succumbed and made a fandom twitter account :( now I can get exposed to more takes! Also happy birthday to Tifa! I really think it was a mistake to have non-WM-memories Aerith with us the whole game and then jarringly transition back to Omni-Aerith at the very end. EDIT: Oh gosh...

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

    In Remake I felt like she had an element of "meta" behind her and it made sense because she had the White Materia and all the knowledge of the future. Then in Rebirth they took it away...just to apparently give it back to her just for this date? It's weird for sure. I think ultimately a lot of...

    Oh, that's right, they do say that in the cave. Same as the JP, so that checks out. They didn't make it, they just turned it black.

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

    Sephiroth says in the beginning that materia are formed from memories, information, right? That's how humans can cast magic (which is from the Cetra), because materia infuses them with knowledge? I honestly thought this was the devs signposting pretty hard because it's a pretty direct piece of...

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

    I was sour on the dream date to begin with but I've definitely soured on it more over time. It's possible that the writers' intents were more "Aerith doesn't know a lot about the world or dates so she just defaults back to the Zack first date experience" but even if that's a logical thing to...

    He's just in his Uber driver era where he has to pretend to be normal. I think it will come out with his treatment of Shera, for sure.

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

    I take this to mean Aerith talking about SOLDIER!Cloud (mostly, though I assume due to her overall presence in the Lifestream that she could have peeked in on the party's adventures with "real" Cloud at any point), which I actually think is sweet. Putting aside any "long-term feasibility"...

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

    Well, like others have said, it is kind of a core part of the story, when it comes down to it. I think it's crazy to play Crisis Core and not be a Zerith person at least. It's weird, I'm not that interested in fanon content for Zerith, but I was sobbing at the end of CC lol. If I ever think...

    They were/are in a weird place because they sort of...regressed? What Aerith was aware of (the knowledge of the future that she held in the White Materia) between Remake and Rebirth...so some people who didn't like her forwardness/flirtiness from the OG didn't like that she "reverts" to that in...

    There is a OG only thread in this subforum, but you can probably fire off questions here if you want? IDK, Rebirth kind of quelled a lot of actual "debate" here lol.

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

    Well, honestly, OG is a bit of a different beast in this regard, I do actually think Tifa and Aerith can come off as quite unfriendly towards each other in OG. Yeah, I feel like "there is a ceiling on how good of friends two women who are pursuing the same guy can be" is a totally reasonable...

    I agree with the overarching message of your post but I think this part below is sort of just a personal boundaries thing: Some people are probably just never going to be cool with a scenario where one woman, who is pretty aware that her two other friends have mutual feelings for each other (at...

    Shipping in AUs or making your own fanon content (fic or art or w/e) is normal shipping behavior...god knows I'm a fan of enough non-canon/rarepair garbage to know what that's like :'(
