    Lucrecia's characterization and depiction

    I might disagree, but then, I’m not sure what I’d suggest they have localized to instead to have made it better. :monster: It wasn’t just her font, so I assure you it wasn’t needlessly, but thanks for your input. :awesome: I can’t read light-on-dark text for more than a little while without...

    HELP. Japanese cutscenes from Dirge of Cerberus?? (alternate title is me screaming really loud)

    UGH GUYS WHY. SO in Episode #465435 of Why I Hate the Internet, I just discovered that the YouTube video I had been using (yes, that’s an ongoing action verb, and yes I realize I haven’t worked on the project in 11 months) for this translation project has been made “private” so that, presumably...

    Five Reasons Dirge is a Better Game than people think.

    Lucrecia never said she became hideous. It was a thing in an Ultimania, and I think it may have been part of the scrapped "early materials" because either way it never made it into the game. We see her during OG and she looks the same. Not only that, but Lucrecia is a far better character than...

    Lucrecia's characterization and depiction

    Hey guys, sorry I'm super late to the party here, but as someone who has been studying and writing essays about this stuff for years I thought I should pitch in some input on a few points here. For posterity or whatnot. Unfortunately when I found and read this very lengthy thread last week it...

    DCFFVII Research Thread

    Hey guys, I just stumbled upon the front page article in an ironically timely manner here. Cool to see people still taking an interest in Dirge of Cerberus... The Tumblr and deviantART fandom communities have all but written it out of their memories and I often feel like I'm one of the the only...

    What was Hojo's motivation?

    Still speaking according to my headcanon here, I think a combination of both. The thing to remember about Hojo's arc is that it spans 30 years (or more, if you'd looking back into his childhood development also). There doesn't really need to be an "aha, that's the point where he lost his...

    What was Hojo's motivation?

    This is because Hojo is actually a fairly disappointing character. The problem with Hojo (as a character, not as a human being; that’s an entirely different dissertation lol) is that he has so much potential for depth, but every time the canon creators get their hands on him they’re...

    Veld's last name?

    Cool, thanks. I thought as much but was receiving conflicting reports. And hey, we've seen characters given dumber surnames. And dumber first-names-that-should-have-been-last-names. (I'm looking at you, Gast Faremis.)

    Can someone change my username?

    For the sake of consistency across the web, can I get changed to the full "Ravynne Nevyrmore" moniker? Thanks.

    Veld's last name?

    I've seen a few people refer to him as "Veld Dragoon" but am unsure of whether that is a canon or fanon surname. Can anyone cite this from canon (ideally with screen caps)? Thanks!

    Rumor of creators saying Vincent and Lucrecia's relationship was sexual?

    Thanks. That was my thought too. The only thing I could think of that is even in the vein of them ever saying anything like that was when they mentioned that Cloud and Tifa's Highwind scene was originally going to be a "much more risqué" scene of them surreptitiously coming out of a chocobo...

    Rumor of creators saying Vincent and Lucrecia's relationship was sexual?

    Guys I'm not asking what I may or may not believe re: Vincent and Lucrecia's relationship. :lol: I'm well aware of the canon story, have my own headcanons that fill in the blanks, etc. That's not what I'm asking. I'm just asking if anyone's heard of this supposed interview before. If anyone...

    Rumor of creators saying Vincent and Lucrecia's relationship was sexual?

    Hey guys. So before you go "Oh jfc there's Ravynne going on about her VinLu delusions again," let me state that I am on the skeptical side of this but wanted to confirm. So I recently read this in someone's character bio on a Vincent Valentine RP blog on Tumblr: Needless to say I raised an...

    I can't seem to find the part where I said you weren't. Much in the same way that I am speaking generally when I say that, in general, people who make posts about how no one can be objective about character interpretations are wrong and have no basis for claiming such a thing, and are possibly...

    Have you considered that perhaps this might be a problem that you're having, and everyone else does not necessarily share this problem with you? I do not interpret characters one way or the other because I "want" to. I look at the evidence and make an educated decision. I find your insistence...

    Assuming you're claiming responsibility for that "You can write him as super-competent if you want," line (or whoever said this to me), and if you meant that about me personally: I have never written him as "super-competent," just "Turk-average level of competence with above-average shooting...

    I kind of think you guys are overplaying the significance that Vincent Valentine would have to any subsequent Turks who never knew him. I don't think the guy's in history books. Once Reno, Rude, Elena, and Tseng met him in game and presumably, at some point, learned that he used to be a Turk...

    I think if we were meant to believe the Turks are incompetent they wouldn't have the reputation they do. Going back to the whole show vs. tell thing, sometimes you have to accept the tell even when it contradicts the show. Chalk the rest up to poor storytelling if you wish but I don't think...

    You don't think he would be emotionally compromised when he thinks Lucrecia is upstairs dying? I'm not saying getting help wasn't a smart move; I'm just saying he is compromised by his emotions.

    I'm not seeing what part of this demands that the issue Vincent was confronting Hojo about at that exact moment was, "Hey! Lucrecia just died!" Vincent never says, "Lucrecia, you're alive. I thought you died and I went and yelled at your husband for it and everything." Most likely, he...
