The reason I don't think this will happen is because from the Remake's perspective, Advent Children already happened (in a wibbly wobbly timey-wimey sense). So it wouldn't be disregarded so much as it will be part of "how we got here". The reason I'm sure Genesis will appear is because it's supposed to follow up Dirge. Weiss may end up playing a bigger role in the future as well. That's the feeling I get, anyway.
Well regardless of whether Advent Children really "already happened" from the respect of the Remake (which I don't really agree with, at least not in the sense that it makes the Remake a "sequel"), one of the main reason I think the Remake will end and still align with AC (and DC) by its end, is that all the references to AC, especially in chapter 18, just scream to me as the devs going "Hey you guys, remember AC and the Compilation? We remember them! This is us showing that that stuff is still important and the Remake will still connect/comply with them!" to the players.

Don't trust my judgment.

Read what I actually put. There's all the evidence you need. :monster:

It's not real dude, I don't know how much clearer I can say it. It's like believing Aerith can be revived on Disc 3. It's not real.

It's kind of just how you view it I guess. I'm very sure Sephiroth is from after Advent Children, and so are Aerith's out of place memories which giver her knowledge of the future. For me, all the callbacks to AC in chapter 18 are supposed to be a nod to that fact that from certain perspectives (Sephiroth's, Aerith's, and the Planet's) those events already happened. I don't see Cloud omni-slashing Sephiroth only for him to do what he did in AC and return because Remake-Sephiroth did that already. I think the reason Ever Crisis exists is to catch people up on the lore so they can appreciate how the Remake is the capstone to it all.

Cloud's 100% going to Omnislash Sephiroth in the Northern Crater like he did in FFVII.

What he'll do against Sephiroth at the Edge of Creation will be a different story.

I mean that's a real possibility. I predict that there will be a final battle to wrap up the overall threat the other Sephiroth poses to the party, but it'll come at the cost of erasing the other timeline because he would have absorbed that Planet's lifestream and tied it to his own existence. It'll basically be the "Promised Land" where everyone could find their hope and future where everyone's losses no longer happened. But at the cost of the Planet existing in accordance to it's proper cycle of life. A dead planet that Sephiroth keeps frozen in perfection. A false promised land, and Zack will naturally fight to stop it too. Because Cloud and the others will be tempted to accept it.

I mean I don't doubt Sephiroth (the chapter 17/18 ??? one especially) and Aerith have some form of the knowledge of the future (how much is consciously known for each of them may vary too), but I don't think how it is happening will make the events happening in the Remake a "sequel".

And I think the Remake setting up something like or similar to a closed-time loop (where something like Sepiroth's own attempts and shenanigans to mess with the Remake's events are what ultimately guarantees the events of AC and DC going on to happen in the future) is a completely viable outcome. And casual loops are some of the Final Fantasy franchise's go-to tropes, like FFXIV Endwalker just featured one of them in its main narrative.

I mean, FFVII-R is a "sequel" for the other Sephiroth, perhaps. But that's from the perspective of the antagonist. For him, he has experienced FFVII before, but that doesn't mean it's a sequel from the stance of the main characters of the story. It's still FFVII's story. Cloud is still Cloud from FFVII. Aerith has some knowledge from the future, but she even says in ToTPs that the knowledge has now disappeared thanks to the Whispers no longer being around her. In the end, we're still in FFVII but with an added storyline of Sephiroth from the distant future, where the planet met it's ultimate demise. And him trying to prevent it.


And Mako why did you run away from the server, it was fun teasing you about Wada.

lol I just been busy, but I never "left" the server. Just haven't chatted.

Alright, so I've come to learn that the same person Mako is calling a liar about the part 2 leak was also the one who broke the Remake script leak from the demo, which was real. Here was Mako's reaction to THAT leak.
So looking at Resetera again for spoilers, and like this dialogue string here?

This is fake. I'm 99.99% certain this is just fake crap meant to mislead and try to sound like FFVII, or a bastardized version of it. The intermixing of random trailer quotes that don't fit or make sense in the context is bizarre.

Also, after going through it carefully, the codes for the alleged subs don't make sense or mesh with the number pattern/sequence of dialogues posted before.

Unless the dialogue in the Shinra Building chapter is so numerous and scattershot we're gonna just jump numerical values by the thousands, I'm dubiou...

Then there's the writing itself which just seems... False. It also has numerous spelling errors. And unless S-E has failed basic English and lacks a simple spell checker, there's a horrifying lack of quality control here. The grammar is messed up as well.

Folks, be careful out there. Cause, people clearly are trolling hard now. This dialogue spoiler here is just.. It's false as hell.

EDIT: Found the supposed leak of dialogue with mention of G-Type SOLDIERS.

This is fake as hell. The same I said before regarding the previous dialogue applies to this supposed leak as well.

Whispers/Guardians of Destiny monster bio

$menu_EnemyBookText_SU0005_01_Bahamut_Boss_Feeler,Bahamut, recreated by the Whispers. It was formed by the coming together of three entities: Whisper Rubrum, Whisper Viridi, and Whisper Croceo.
Those monster bios are shady as hell, the spoilers posted on ResetEra on pages 29 and onward by the user Lunatic do not make sense and seem like intentional trolling.

Like...Why would bestiary entries for the Guardians of Destiny and the Deepground enemies be mined first and revealed around the time the Genesis trolling began in earnest on that forum? Especially with no other leaks of Sense bestiary info coming before it...

Why would the Hell House entry just be "No one knows how it was built?" That sounds like it was written as an afterthought, while the supposed legit DG enemy and GoD bios have actual text and explanations of their purpose and context. Too fishy and try hard.

The person posting these on Resetera thread legit seems to be trying to get attention. I'm dubious of these, as they simply don't make sense.

Like, this bestiary entry here...

$en_FeelerPraeco_MiniGun,Whisper Croceo,a,whispers crocei,whisper croceo

This sounds like a straight piss take. The naming convention for the three entities are simply colors in latin. No symbolic value at all. And them combining together is analogous to... super sentai/power rangers. That's the symbolism. That doesn't make sense to me. It sounds like legit trolling mocking the concept itself. Why would the ghosts form in 3 colors combine to form a giant Bahamut?

Yeeeeah. Anything posted by the user Lunatic on ResetEra is more than likely taking the piss.

So you'll understand why I have my doubts lol.

Dude, are you fucking serious?

Read the literal black and white text and DMs from the actual person who was falsely name dropped as a source for Part 2 leaks, btfo of the guy lying about his fanfiction level "leaks" that have no corroborating hard data source.

It's not real, and I don't understand why you're equating my hesitancy at believing leaks from 2019's initial release of FFVII-R, with supposed data mined from the retail copy of FFVII-R that's non-existent and proven to be A LIE. I didn't believe the initial leak of stuff from 2019, so I'm now making shit up? What?

Like, just read. Read it. It's not hard. Don't take my word for it. You really don't need to throw some random unconnected shit in my face to try to prove me wrong about the past when you can just read and see it for yourself. Don't believe me? Read the actual contemporary text of the actual person who was lied on and cited.

I mean, FFVII-R is a "sequel" for the other Sephiroth, perhaps. But that's from the perspective of the antagonist. For him, he has experienced FFVII before, but that doesn't mean it's a sequel from the stance of the main characters of the story. It's still FFVII's story. Cloud is still Cloud from FFVII. Aerith has some knowledge from the future, but she even says in ToTPs that the knowledge has now disappeared thanks to the Whispers no longer being around her. In the end, we're still in FFVII but with an added storyline of Sephiroth from the distant future, where the planet met it's ultimate demise. And him trying to prevent it.

I mean think this is where how people understand closed-time loop stories may just be a matter of schematics (especially ones that are initially set-up to seem like they are telling a dynamic timeline story like Back to the Future). Like in Harry Potter 3, where Harry saves himself from the dementors in his past, that doesn't make his character a "sequel" in the earlier chapters before the reader knows the mysterious figure who saved Harry was himself, at least IMO. It's more a case of Harry having always saved himself because he had to have been saved by himself in order to save himself.

Now in the case of the Remake, meta-textually/Doylistically the player/audience understands there's the OG that the Remake is adapting its story from, but on the Wastsonian level of the Remake's story, I fully expect whatever the ??? Sepiroth is doing (who probably thinks he is in a dynamic timeline story, and maybe even is, temporarily, what with the alive!Zack stuff) will ultimately inadvertently lead to him guaranteeing his own defeat in the main OG outline story of the Remake and ensure the future AC/Compilation stuff occurs without him (or at least his "past" self) realizing it. Basically meaning that all that stuff has always happened from the respect of the Remake, but we just won't realize it until the end.

I'm actually quite curious about a time loop direction, I think that is quite feasible judging by the way Aerith in particular acts

Dude, are you fucking serious?

Read the literal black and white text and DMs from the actual person who was falsely name dropped as a source for Part 2 leaks, btfo of the guy lying about his fanfiction level "leaks" that have no corroborating hard data source.

It's not real, and I don't understand why you're equating my hesitancy at believing leaks from 2019's initial release of FFVII-R, with supposed data mined from the retail copy of FFVII-R that's non-existent and proven to be A LIE. I didn't believe the initial leak of stuff from 2019, so I'm now making shit up? What?

Like, just read. Read it. It's not hard. Don't take my word for it. You really don't need to throw some random unconnected shit in my face to try to prove me wrong about the past when you can just read and see it for yourself. Don't believe me? Read the actual contemporary text of the actual person who was lied on and cited.
My take away is that he randomly claimed some model ripper artist was on his "team" for some reason even though she seems to believe otherwise (notably, the conversation ends with her wanting to make sure he's not in her server under another name) and you're using that as a basis for claiming the whole thing is fake despite this same guy doing a very real and publicized leak you also claimed was fake until proven wrong.

I've seen a pic of the hex code that was leaked, which contained some dialogue between Cloud and Zack. It was very convincing lol. The way it was formatted perfectly matches how the text in Remake 1 is formatted. That'd be hard to come up with out of nowhere so shortly after the game released.
