Character trailer

[AerithLives]

Does the character trailer for Cloud imply there might be one for each of the other characters?

 

[pxp]

I certainly don’t think it can be discounted ...

That would be super cool! I do wonder how others would go theoretically without giving too much away tho.

It would be especially interesting to see someone like Tifa's, since I reckon a lot of what we see and know of her character is heavily dependent on her relationship with Cloud, so I reckon it would be hard to have a 'Tifa-centric' trailer without it being about Tifa as well as Cloud (the promise and all that). D:

I reckon Aerith's can flirt with her connection with the planet, so viewers realise that she's 'special'. Then Barret has Marlene and his passion for AVALANCHE to highlight should he get a personal trailer. Hmm!

The idea is fun to speculate on haha, even though I admittingly don't think it's very likely?

I'm personally not a fan of the idea of having 5+ more trailers before the game is out. Then again, I've been on a "Trailer blackout" after e3 (boy, it's tough), so maybe that's just me.

I mean this Cloud one didn't really show anything new. Just got a little more dialogue, and mostly still all from the first bombing mission. So if they could manage that with the other characters that would minimize and spoilery-ness. Of course, if there were that many trailers with so little new stuff, people would probably complain about that, haha.

I do like that I think the Cloud trailer is the first time we don't have "early development footage subject to change". Also, of course, Shinra riffs.

I'm ready for the game though. A little less than 3 months to go.

Yeah, that countdown kills me a little every time I look at it.

It's certainly possible, but the short Twitter character trailers that have accompanied the wallpaper/avatar packs serve the same purpose really IMO. I don't feel any more are necessary.

There are already mini trailers for characters though:

Tifa
Barret
Cloud

Aerith's isn't out yet, but the German FFVII Remake twitter fumbled and tweeted it before deleting it, so my guess is we're going to see it soon? So the question is, will there be longer trailers like there is one for Cloud? I somehow doubt it, it looks more like we get those as characters' presentations... Cloud being the main character, it's logical that they expand on him, especially since we get his POV in that stage of the game.

I'm the same... At this point, I want to be surprised about things. I don't want to go through the game thinking, "oh, that's the part from the trailers."
