    The Five Bosses of Godo's Pagoda

    I was asking on tumblr about the etymology of some Wutai place names, and recieved a reply that led me to this on the wiki "All the bosses in the Wutai Pagoda appear to have a link to theater. Shake is likely a shortened version of Shakespeare, the most famous English playwright. The intention...

    FFVII and the nature of grief

    There's a great meta post by the materiodictable over at tumble on how FFVII OG uses game mechanics to explore the nature of grief. It's worth reading the whole thing but here's an extract She also gives the famous Kitase quotation, "“When you lose someone you loved very much you feel this...

    "Saved": Preserving video games

    Interesting podcast from The Digital Human series, featuring a guy called Mike Finkelstein aka DarkMoon from the FF Randomizer community; I'm assuming some people here know him. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000wcct

    Final Fantasy VII: Secrets, Strategies, Solutions

    Has anyone ever heard of this book? Final Fantasy VII: Secrets, Strategies, Solutions. By Russell Murray. I want to know why it's worth 80 quid!

    SPOILERS New site timeline?

    Are we going to be updating the timeline on this site as a result of new information from the Remake, the Ultimania, and the new novella? Just wondering.

    How do you pronounce Nibelheim?

    I always pronounced it in my head as Nibbleheim, as this would seem to be the correct pronunciation in German, and it seems like German word. But I hear it pronounced (by North Americans) as Neebleheim, which grates on my ears. If it were pronounced Neebleheim, it ought to be spelled...

    SPOILERS Split-off FFVII/FFX Connection Discussion

    It's not that I disbelieve the FFX connection, I just don't like it. Are we now meant to suppose that the Shinra family are aliens too? Come on. It's not even necessary to the story. It adds zero.

    SPOILERS Characterisation of Midgar in the Remake

    Since our beloved home town of Midgar is the setting for this entire game and features in every chapter, I thought I would start a new thread where we can discuss how it's characterised in the Remake, and what it might be like to live there. The Threat of Gentrification I'll start off with a...

    Nonsensical Whispers

    The Arbiters of Fate have irked me. Chadley Fortnum has irked me. Rufus's belt-crinoline has irked me. I have written a snarky fanfic to get back at them. It inevitably features Rufus and the Turks. Enjoy Nonsensical Whispers

    SPOILERS Avalanche cells and structure (open-spoilers discussion)

    It's kind of a shame Rufus didn't arrive in time to stomp on his daddy's fingers. I was wondering whether they'd continue to portray him as the secret mastermind of Avalanche Mark II, but then the Avalanche helicopter blew up when trying to rescue Cloud, so that seems unlikely.... Unless... It...

    Does anyone know where I can download a safe, free copy of Minecraft?

    It needs to be clean and safe. It doesn't need to be state of art. An older version would be fine. I want to get my students to build a Greek temple. Alternatively, does anyone know of free software which they could use to build a temple?

    Suggest a game for my students

    I am looking for a relatively short game - 2 to 4 hours - that is free, easy to play, and has an interesting message. I was thinking of using "Gone Home" or "Papers, Please", but they aren't free. The purpose is for the students to play the game and analyse its effectiveness as a medium of...

    Dragon Quest: Your Story

    I just stumbled across this on Netflix (and amazingly, it was subtitled in English). I am a HUGE Dragon Quest nerd and I absolutely loved it. It was completely true to the visual style, the running gags, the comforting predictability, and the general nuttiness of these games. Probably my...

    Youtube Premium

    Does anyone here use it? If you do, are you happy with it? I'm thinking of getting it because it would make it easy for me to download a bunch of audio I need.

    What did Cloud mean when he said this?

    OK I know this topic has probably been discussed to death, but today I realised that after so many years in the fandom, I still don't know what Cloud meant when he delivered his famous last lines: Cloud An answer from the Planet... the Promised Land... I think I can meet her...there. "Her" is...
