SPOILERS FFVII:R Chapter 14 Spoiler Discussion

[Odysseus]

By the way, I'm surprised none has mentioned it, but has anyone else found Kotch still bound in Don Corneo's dungeon?
That's the sort of silly detail faithful to the OG that I love to find in this game.

Can you open the door? I heard someone crying for help but I couldn't get in there.

 

[Mayo Master]

Oh, you totally can. I went down there and freed him (although I wasn't sure I should have )
Only thing I'm not quite remembering is whether you open the path from the walkway inside the main hall or you open it from the side door in Don Corneo's office. There are parallel stairs leading to the dungeon.

 

[Odysseus]

Oh I missed that. Something to do during my replay I guess

Question: Does anybody know if there is a scene where Cloud learns the name of Kyrie (aka !Yuffie) ?

I never noticed such a scene, so when Cloud inexplicably knew her name I imagined Kyrie asking "How do you know my name?!" and Cloud just replying "You were in the promotional material".

Her grandma tells the group her name in the Corneo's Secret Stash sidequest

It's a scene you can miss if you're doing the Johnny Sidequest first I believe.

 

[Shademp]

Thanks! I definitely did the Johnny sidequest first and never unlocked that particular scene with Mireille.

 

[Odysseus]

Do Cloud or Tifa ever meet Kyrie in the Turks book? I'm wondering if some continuity issues might crop up from them helping her here.

Briefly I think they do IIRC, but I don’t think there’s anything contradictory indicated.

They do definitely meet up in the book’s epilogue when Evan and Kyrie are talking one of their loved ones to get cured of Geostigma at Aerith’s church in a post-AC/C scene.

She's in Seventh Heaven all the time, and they have at least one significant conversation together that I can remember.

EDIT: Ninjazilla

 

[Odysseus]

Yeah, you're right. Man I've read that book twice and I didn't remember. Gotta wonder if Tifa ever brings up that time Kyrie slandered their good names.

 

[Cannon_Fodder]

I remember that

Spoiler: TKAA spoilers, the book is great so go read it if you haven't!

Kyrie is very intimidated by/jealous of Tifa, so I'm guessing that Tifa doesn't even have to bring up the slander in the first place. Kyrie isn't going to give her any shit anymore.

 

[looneymoon]

The scene with Cloud and Tifa : ow my heart, I'm getting a little misty

Elmyra asking the party bring Aerith back - oh god she never sees her again does she, I am fully sobbing now

okay so I'm now in sidequests territory before I can enter the Shinra building and never return. I wanna do everything but I also wanna see what happens next. Dilemmaaaaas!!!

No matter what, one thing FFVII Remake has done amazingly well, was bring new life and incredible characterization to these characters I didn't even think was possible now. That scene between Cloud and Tifa is one of the most powerful moments for them, and it's a combination of just.. The deep intimacy, pain, and comfort they shared being conveyed so well in such a singular moment. Like, there are so many moments in the Remake that speak to such a great examination and showcase of what makes the characters so unique, and that moment is a shining example of one.

They really did well giving the characters new life in this.

 

[Keveh Kins]

Still on this chapter, futzing about doing side quests.

Jules is absolutely murdering my thumbs.

 

[looneymoon]

I do not like the implication from the fact that the Don's stash is full of moogle medals

Jules made me feel like I actually did a pull up. But like, for my thumbs.

 

[Odysseus]

The original game told you not to mess with big bro, the remake showed you why you don't mess with big bro.

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

I wondered why the Don had so many moogle medals, too.
Maybe the moogle kid who runs the shop in the hideout works for him?

 

[looneymoon]

my bad place brain thought it was something more nefarious than that...

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

Do tell.

 

[Rydeen]

I'm assuming to lure children into sex trafficking...

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

That would be in keeping with his character.
Although I found it funny to think of the Don hoarding moogle medals because of what he can buy with them.
Incidentally, can moogle medals be spent anywhere other than with moogle kid in the Sector 5 hideout? The game is still giving them to me in the Shinra building.

 

[Fangu]

It annoyed me seeing the amount of Moogle Medals I got post chapter 14 as I knew I wasn't going for a second playthrough.

 

[looneymoon]

so uh

has aerith just been casually killing behemoths on her own to get medicine for this doctor

 

[Maidenofwar]

Pink wife OP.

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

Nice thinking looneymoon.
Aerith can always find strong guys willing to do her bidding.
Or maybe her Turk bodyguards helped her. Now there's a fanfic waiting to be written.
