Ok so I am pretty bad at this but let's give it a shot, *ahem*
Hi, I am a relatively new JRPG and FFVII enthusiast. I played the OG for the first time at the beginning of the year, and it's now one of my biggest regret in life to not have played it sooner.
As soon as the credits rolled I knew I experienced something unique and that, unfortunately, I won't be able to experience it for the first time ever again...
I was familiar with some of the characters (thanks to Kingdom Hearts *cough*) and knew about the unfortunate end of a certain someone, but apart from that I was totally going in blind.
I binged the rest of the compilation immediately after: played Crisis Core, read "On The Way to a Smile" and "The Maiden who travels the Planet" (that's how I found this site btw, thanks!), watched FFVII: ACC and Dirge of Cerberus (call me weak, but I didn't have enough will to play a third-person shooter game, sorry).
Then I played the Remake on PC and here I am! I have yet to read "The Kids Are Alright" novella and "Trace of Two Pasts", the translation can't come soon enough!
What hooked me immediately were the characters and the plot. I absolutely love it, the lore is fascinating and the challenging yet simple gameplay of the OG was the icing on the cake! I actually enjoyed playing a turn-based game and that's something. The gameplay of Crisis Core was alright and I had a blast playing Remake, but I can understand how it is not everyone's cup of tea.
So yeah, I am not much of a forum person usually, but after reading a few lore related threads, I decided to overcome my shyness and actually interact (and not just lurk) for once! Usually everyone is at each other's throat and from what I gathered, It doesn't seem to be too much the case here? A welcome sight.
I guess if you want to know a little more about me (and you have time to lose), you can check the "about" section in my profile.
Can't wait to delve deeper into the lore and eventually chat with you all!
Let's mosey.
