My reaction to seeing Nero in this trailer: "Oh crap. They let him *out*!? WTF is going on down in DG for *that* to happen???"
Followed up by the realization that if Nero is killing the *scientists*... it probably wasn't Restrictor who let him out... Also... he could kill Yuffie and Sonon just as fast as he killed the scientists and he's not. So... something's up with that. I get the idea Nero's line of "How dare you. How dare you stand in my way." is directed more towards the scientists and not Yuffie and Sonan.
Any takers on the idea that Yuffie and Sonon don't so much fall into DeepGround as much as they get *teleported* in?

My reaction when I saw Nero the Sable in INTERgrade:
What kind of club is Deepground again..? And how X-rated is the dress code? Just asking for a friend....

Well at this this time it definetly won't be Hojo directing the plan. So that's a pretty massive step in the right direction.

If one looks closely, the trailer shows that Nero's appearance actually occurs mid-battle. And the battlefield looks partially destroyed and there's even a wall that's been demolished.
Given what we see earlier in the trailer, we know Scarlet herself mockingly greets Yuffie & Sonon within Deepground and personally pilots one of her Wutai War era battle armor mechs to fight them.
Scarlet is one of the few Shinra Executives with knowledge and authority over Deepground, so one can reasonably infer that after her battle and defeat from Yuffie, she authorizes the use of the Tsviets to neutralize the intruders. And one of the first Tsviets to escalate the stakes of this altercation is Nero the Sable.
What happens is unclear given the episode's unreleased and all.... But it seems the scientists who are within the vicinity somehow try to obstruct Nero or give him orders and he doesn't take their interruption well at all. Maybe he's getting antsy at Yuffie and Sonon's proximity to Weiss, or maybe he's just in a bad mood, but he clearly takes his frustrations out on the scientists.
Also, there's a detail I think that is important regarding Nero. Take notice Nero's arms.
First, while he seemingly uncrosses his arms over his chestbecause he lives the goth scene everyday of his life it is not because he is wearing a straightjacket. His arms are seemingly left free and unrestricted. Furthermore, his nails are not black like they are in Dirge of Cerberus because it's hard to get nail polish in the Deepground commissary due to how many EX Medals they cost and his tattoos do not cover nearly as much skin when compared to Dirge of Cerberus as well. Notice how his arms look in DC.
His tattoos go all the way down to his wrists and his nails are black. This leads me to believe that his darkness is not as strong as it was in Dirge of Cerberus. Nero's arm tattoos and nail polish reflect his power of darkness, and at this stage of his life, his darkness isn't quite as monstrous as seen in DC.
Perhaps this incident in INTERgrade with him literally attacking Shinra scientists in rage and annoyance is what prompts Deepground to put him in a straightjacket and restrict him 24/7.

Goodness me that was exciting. I never got too deep into the compilation so all of this is going to be new news for me! Very interesting to see what you lot are making of it.
This looks so good. Adding so much depth to what was originally an optional character and leaving you wondering how they’ll intertwine her into the party in Part 2 considering all these new connections that they’re making. Love it!
I’ve gotta say though, I was most excited when Ramuh popped up and seeing how good Fort Condor looks!

It's a fun trailer, but it would have been taken to a whole new level if they had teased Genesis, darnit.

That was my initial guess as well. It'd make the most sense since this is all happening during the events of the original game, and DoC was after.

I agree! Especially if we got him quoting a line from Loveless at the end of the trailer

If you do that, might as well look at all the Tsviets. Their stories are all linked

He is a tragic hero and deserves a substantial role in the remake! Intergrade is the perfect chance to see him elaborate on 'the final crisis'...

I know you see him as Gollum and wish Zack had killed him, but it was pity that stayed Zack's hand. My heart tells me that Genesis has some part to play in all this, for good or ill, before this is over. The pity of Zack may rule the fate of many.....

Sure, that doesn't make Genesis a hero though.
