I'll double down on this and say that I would find it unrealistic if Tifa's appearance was emphasized any less. Maybe it's my cultural background that gives me this expectation, and maybe folks would expect this to be less of a thing in the U.S. now in the age of #MeToo, but that cultural shift...

Yes, @TurquoiseHammer -- huge thanks. I always wanted to get around to all this, but just never did. It wouldn't have gone as expediently as your efforts either, probably. Thus, hope for the Compilation Buster Sword design emerging after the Lifestream sequence in the remake lived on~ Another...

Good observation. I can only figure the footage of Lucrecia would be between Genesis's birth and Sephiroth's, since we previously knew a) Genesis and Angeal were born before Seph, but also b) that Genesis's birth was a turning point in terms of the extent of experimentation on other personnel.

Even if that's so, the wide time period under the microscope there is for Project: 0 and its unfortunate test subjects.

The Jenova Project should have already ended around 1977, though, since Genesis, Angeal, and Seph were born around 30 years before the main FFVII. Project: 0 and 1977-1984 is, per the prior trailer, the period in which Shin-Ra experimented on "countless casualties" to develop SOLDIER.

Since Shin-Ra was selling the end of the Wutai War as the beginning of a new era of peace and prosperity, a new calendar was probably an effective symbolic piece in that propaganda.

That is fucking awesome.

Oh, God, the kidney stones ...

That's more than fair.

Right. This is potentially just a way of experiencing new moments with a concept you already love but can no longer get new experiences from in its present form. Kind of like a group of people sharing stories about a person who has passed on that they all knew. If it sticks the landing, it'll...

They may be arbitrary, but could it be that the planet is just too weak to do more at the specific point in the future it's striking from? I don't know, that still sounds somewhat arbitrary, but all the players involved need limits of some kind to make for a compelling drama, so if we have to...

I admire and appreciate your dedication to the mission, @NaoyaShinota Since EC is bound to revisit BC, though, I bet they'll just say look forward to it -- at least for the next couple of years. Perhaps after that they would be willing to re-release the original if there's still enough fans...

I appreciate that kind of storytelling, but I don't think I want it here. If it's what we end up getting, though, I'm confident it will be as high-quality as the Remake storytelling up to this point.

To add to this, Evan does the same thing with Kyrie, who he's actually already close friends with at the beginning of the story. And to add to that, there's a minimal observation that Kyrie feels a bit inferior in looks to Tifa, and slightly jealous about Evan's obvious attraction towards her...

Ain't you seen them thighs and hoo-hahs?

Doesn't that just underscore Lic's take (i.e. your first proposed possibility)? The situation is only emphasized for one of these characters when it logically should apply to them all, and Lord knows they all have their own real-life stans proclaiming their desirability.

I mean, I would trust my wife to take care of my bank account while I'm in a coma ... but I can't say that she's my first choice for who to have on hand at the onset of the medical emergency that resulted in my coma. She doesn't do emergencies well. Situation-specific confidence is a thing. I...

Certainly within the realm of "could," but it as easily could not be if Jenova just eats the energy and burns the stuff up like a mako reactor.

Even if they had meant no more DLC ever, I would buy zero stock in such a prediction given the often tumultuous and too unpredictable world of game development.

There was a time while a friend and I were both dealing with serious insomnia that she would read Dune to me over the phone until we fell asleep.
