Hey everyone, I was browsing through http://ff-reunion.net/ . Noticed something FFVII related, but I can't read anything. Translations anyone?

I think there's something about Zack and the FFVII 20th Anniversary, but don't hold me to it; attempted to use Google translation...so yeah...not the greatest interpretation.

Move this thread if need be. ^_^

Thanks.

A new CG title screen of Crisis Core with Zack visible from behind, as he talks to himself, apparently being handed off to Dissidia? Or maybe 3rd is off to work on Dissidia.

Second one talks mostly about how Tadashi wanted a designs as quickly as possible and to show the immediacy of the destiny of Zack.

Third one talks about getting it done really quickly and the others commenting on 'well we didn't exactly tell you what to draw', and 3rd asking to keep the design around for inclusion in a 20th anniversary book for FFVII.

So, the guys working on 3rd Birthday are also working on stuff involving Zack and Dissidia, it seems. Not surprising, but curious what they're working on.

If Zack is in Dissidia... who will he ask for a date? :awesome:

Don't get too excited about Zack in Diddidia just yet. It might also be that Dissidia's crew is also working with the 3rd crew on this Zack thing. 3rd just said 'Dissidia in charge now' which could mean a number of things.

I'm assuming that because The 3rd Birthday is a PSP game made by SE, that the same team that did Dissidia/Crisis Core are also working on it. Still not that awesome at Japanese, so I bothered Hito to come look at it.

If we examine this by way of the LTD, this clearly points to clack as canon. :awesome:

The problem's less the Japanese and more the lack of content. What was said was pretty obvious, what it all means it another thing.
The same Dissidia and CC crews working on it makes sense, though.

It's nothing serious. All three are from Tabata, who was the director of CC. The first one talks about the PR staff for CC, who joked about how they didn't realise that title CGI for CC ('Faceless Zack) was Zack since you can't see their face. They're in charge of Dissidia now.

The second two talk about the Faceless Zack image more. It was designed by the art director, Naora. Circumstance lead to the request to Visual Works being on needed 'as soon as it's finished'. Tabata asked for a dramatic design for the title screen which would give a sense of Zack's fate. "When's the deadline?" "Right now (lol)" So Naora made a sketch on the back of a piece of paper laying around.

He finished the rough draft of the image in about 30 seconds. When he handed it to the movie director at VW he told him that he had no idea what he had drawn. Even Tabata just barely knew what it was meant to be, it was really vague and badly drawn. Naora still has that bit of paper, 'so maybe I'll have him keep it safe to show at FFVII's 20th anniversary (lol).


On FFVII, Tabata also talks a bit about the 3DS (again, nothing major or serious). He says if he was going to make something for it, it might be a remake of BC. He says he kind of wants to make an action RPG BC, with the scenario composition and game design updated for the 3DS, with lots of Turks all playing together at the same time. Obviously there's no official company stance on that.

But though it's not to the same level of Nomura, Tabata also has a lot of titles on his plate so can't realistically take charge of a new one. With 3rd [Birthday] and [FFXIII] Agito he hardly has time to sleep during the week and is really feeling the pressure every day.

That's cool that someone still remembers BC. That is some unexpected good news, even though there's no remake actually planned. At least someone is thinking about it.

Oh, what a difference a little context makes.
