Play DoC anyway. You can probably get it for cheap these days, and while it's not the game of the year, it's not all that terrible. You could finish the game in a couple days.

Prep your ridicule shield :monster:

(And I finished the game in two sittings, for reference. And it is true that at no point did I want to gouge out my eyes or anything. But then you tend to be in Masa's boat more often than not Octo, so maybe you would have a stronger reaction, lol.)

I might pick it up....if I see it for less than £5 :monster: I remember I watched one of the cutscenes with Yuffie and it set my teeth on edge.

Yeah I don't expect Cloud to be all 'C'mon gang, lets put on a show!' or anything, but as long as he's stopped doing this face all the time:http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-4Ey0XSoAZ.../Cloud_Strife_Full_HD_1080P_5_by_kuraudo1.jpg

Like a small child watching a clown die in a horrific circus accident.

Nah, Masa is in my boat. And he owes me money....for boat fuel...or something.....

Ridicule is wasted as a shield. Prepare main ridicule batteries for fire!

I was hoping, desperately, that Yuffie's silly act would instantly drop at some point and she'd bring the pain, but oh, so many wasted opportunities.

Hell, if we get around to the DoC LP, so much of it would be 'This is how I'd have done it!' bits.

It's definitely cocky, confident Cloud in DoC.

Like a small child watching a clown die in a horrific circus accident.

Lotta kids I know would cheer for that.

Nah, Masa is in my boat. And he owes me money....for boat fuel...or something.....

I thought he was your cabana boy.

Yeah thats what I don't get, shes meant to be 19 in DoC, and yet she doesn't seem to have matured at all? Not that I expect her to be super serious or anything, but just a little less goofy.

Thank god for that then.

Yeah, I thought that. My brother included.

Basically he's a slave :monster:

Damn, I'm actually curious about DoC now, I want to know if Vincent gets any closure so he can y'know move on with his life and stuff...... :/

It's a start :monster:

I guess I'll have to play the damn thing. I was kind of hoping he'd be able to move on without having to shack up with anybody though. You gotta love yourself honey before you love anybody else! /Ricki Lake

He scores jailbait.

Does that count?

It counts against him if he does anything with her. She's as old as Yuffie but looks 12.
Take the creepy factor of Vin/Yu and multiply it by like seven for that one.

And he doesn't actually DO anything with her, Octo, she's just into him. Shit's complicated because the jailbait gets a mind virus in the form of Lucrecia's memories.

You should try looking up that clip where Vincent speaks with Tifa, Cloud and Barret in a conference call. It's quite cute. The first time I heard Cloud say Tifa's name when she's looking up the map of the building I was all AAAAAAWWWWWW and SQQUUEEEEEE and yes, he does sound quite content. Like, not smiling or laughing, but sorta smirking. And he has confidence. I like DoC-Cloud.

Several thoughts after watching that.

1)Cloud must be happy if he's talking to his motorcycle

2) I forgot how ugly the Shera was.

3) Why do they act like retards with that shiny projection thing? Its just the same as the thing in Bugenhagens lab. Even if they haven't all been in it they would have least heard about it?

4) Hoverboards.....for fucks sake

5) Actually Cloud can't be that confident....he has to get Tifa to make phonecalls for him.

6) Oh holy christ....its Sheeenra is it?

7) Vincent needs to put on some weight

8) Barret needs to stop wasting ammo

9) 8.13 - 8.22 made me feel physically sick. Do not want.

10) 8.31 - 8.38 what is with all the sex noises? Seriously, close your eyes and they could be having an orgy :/

11) Sorry my boundless cynicism has derailed this thread :monster:
 
First order of business once we've established a channel of communication with representatives of Square:
ORDER THEM TO RETCON DIRGE OF CERBERUS (and Before Crisis) OUT OF EXISTENCE.

I'm not kidding. First they must retcon the game, then make a PROPER "Vincent Valentine" title, with the same cliffhanger ending (but with an English Genesis that doesn't sound like a vampire).

I only noticed it when Tifa said it on that phonecall :(

HANDS OFF MY B.C.
Re-write it to eliminate the plotholes, and then release it, with more fully animated CGI cutscenes, in an English version, for the PSP, is my Christmas wish.

Well I hope you were joking on this one...

6) Oh holy christ....its Sheeenra is it?

They clearly say Shinra elsewhere in the Compilation, I dunno if Dirge's director had a weeaboo moment or what.

9) 8.13 - 8.22 made me feel physically sick. Do not want.

It was supposed to be a joke, as Vincent would be the last person to have all the team gung ho stuff. I'm not defending it, I'm just saying that's what they were going for.

10) 8.31 - 8.38 what is with all the sex noises? Seriously, close your eyes and they could be having an orgy :/

They're fighting deepground soldiers while tossing the phone between them and talking. I will defend this scene though as it's probably my singular favorite moment.

Well, I'm sure it was just easier for Tifa to make the call while Cloud was doing other shit. However I used to get my mum to make calls for me and then pass me the phone when I was a lot less confident. So its a half joke. I'm sure Cloud wasn't doing that....but if he was... :lol:

Yeah, I thought so too, otherwise I would have been whining about it for years. Put it down to brain farts.

Fair enough if that was their intention for it to be a bit tounge in cheek, its just that they've done similar things elsewhere in the Complilation to make me think they we're being serious :monster:

I don't think we're talking aboout the same scene here, I'm talking about 8.31 onward where that curtain of darkness descends (or that light recedes) and they're just standing there being aroused surprised. :monster:

Oh, derp. Nevermind me then :) I'm working and didn't actually watch the video and so assumed. I know exactly what you mean now, haha. Sometimes I think they'd be better off just not dubbing all the random sounds people make in Japanese. It doesn't happen in English and just makes people sound weird.

Understandable. If it were Zack we were dealing with, I'd say they were being serious. But the fact that it's Vincent...

Doing that would mean no Shelke, and that is simply unacceptable. :monster:

Besides, I think once you see my ideas for a final Compilation title, you'll feel a little more tolerant of Dirge's place in things. Sadly, BC would have to stay as well, but if it did go, I sure wouldn't shed any tears.

ew english cid in my thread

If I could have one dubbing wish granted, it would be that they picked Gary Sinise instead. I have been hearing his voice as Cid since 1997.


:no:

I don't even think Gandalf could pull off that wizardry.

Sometimes I think they'd be better off just not dubbing all the random sounds people make in Japanese. It doesn't happen in English and just makes people sound weird.

If I had a second dubbing wish granted, it would be this. There are expressions of surprise, screams of anguish and anger, and sometimes even laughs that just never come off as authentic when dubbed. I don't know why, but you can always tell they're reading from a script when it comes to these things in English dubs.
