Hopes for Remake & Rebirth (story/content)

[LNK]

I think Supernova should only be used as a game over move, like Sin's from FFX, or the Astrals being summoned in FFXV. Obviously it is a cool attack, but it's very hard to believe surviving something like that.

 

[Ariga]

I always thought of Supernova as an illusion attack. Sephiroth wasn't really destroying the solar system, but he was making the characters see and feel the destruction of the solar system.

 

[Kai Schulen]

A very whimisical hope for the story and it really adds nothing to the plot but I want to hear some really crazy conspiracy theories about Sephiroth's death. It's been officially stated by Shinra that Sephiroth was KIA on a mission, but the hero of Shinra going down so easily like that, with no public funeral will make conspiracy theorists go hogwild.

Conspiracy theories like:

Sephiroth went to the moon.
Sephiroth was a robot.
Sephiroth ran off to get married and start a family.
Sephiroth, Angeal and Genesis all faked their deaths and are slumming it up in Costa del Sol.
Sephiroth, Angeal and Genesis all faked their deaths to pursue a life in agriculture.
Sephiroth was killed by vaccines.
The Planet is flat, and Sephiroth fell off the edge.
Sephiroth was abducted by aliens.
Sephiroth ascended to the astral plane.
Sephiroth never existed, was a shared hallucination.

...it would be even funnier, if half of these rumors were started by Shinra themselves, so that no one would look closely at what really happened.

Since the other two are Compliation added, I think it would be only Sephiroth.

Wait, the planet isn't flat?

Trainer Red, that is a great idea and Shinra would 110% embrace fake news and foster so many conspiracy theories that nobody was capable any more of distinguishing truth from falsehood. This wouldn't just work for Sephiroth but for all the other cover-ups they're always engaged in.

I can see that... I just think it would be a cool game over attack though

 

[Makoeyes987]

Supernova is going to look fucking god-like in the remake. I eagerly await them going all out on Sephiroth's ultimate over-the-top universe breaking attack that all villains get in Final Fantasy.

What I really want to know though... Is how are they going to animate Heartless Angel?

Are they going to keep the evil chibi angel or will it just be the dark green energy and halo that appears over the party's head?

... I hope they give us the angel.

 

[FFShinra]

Makes me wonder about some enemy skills....

 

[ForceStealer]

 

[Makoeyes987]

I hope Pandora's Box is the most high-def, 4k rendered, badass looking question mark ever seen in a modern AAA video game.

That fucking enemy skill is hilarious given its strength and difficulty to obtain.

 

[Jairus]

Don't forget Frog Song. Now we can be turned into 4K HD toads so detailed you can see the warts!

 

[Makoeyes987]

Oh man, that's gonna be hilarious....

Imagine the dialogue that could happen when made into a frog... FFXV spoiled me with their hilarious banter when someone got hit with debuffs in battle.

"Aww shit! Cloud's a muthafuckin' FROG again! Get this fool over here a Maiden Kiss before I step on his dumbass!"- Barret

"Hm... Tifa, shouldn't you do the honors and free your prince from his curse?" -Vincent

"S-Shut up! Here, Cloud." -Tifa

"I owe ya one. That.. Was a nightmare..." -Cloud

Don't forget Frog Song. Now we can be turned into 4K HD toads so detailed you can see the warts!

I'm having flashbacks of that one FFXV tech demo of that frog.


....would the frog song have lyrics, or is it just going to be very musical frog sounds?

 

[OdaDaimyO]

Nothing against your dialogue choice, but the Vincent line is a roll I can see Aerith much more to play in, because we know she will tease the two to no end.

 

[Metal Heart]

Ya'll know how Lunafreya got her wedding dress designed by Vivienne Westwood? I would laugh if Cloud's dress is designed by someone similar. Imagine walking into Don's Mansion in Gucci. But since they said they modernized it. I doubt it we will get anything fancy, but just a thought. LMAO

 

[FFShinra]

I wonder if they will do the frogs like they do Kirby in that you can still sorta tell it's them, since they aren't in specific positions on a battle screen anymore.....

 

[Odysseus]

Do it like melon did:

Exactly! Cloud with the spikes, Red with the flaming tail, aerith with the bangs, cid with....goggles?, vincent with wraps, no idea how to do the rest but yeah!

Spoiler

- Official FFVIIR twitter

It's just a move. It's just a move. Don't panic.

 

[Claymore]

Ah oh, lol.

 

[Ite]

Actually there's no -TH kanji, so it should read Gaia's Wras

 

[ForceStealer]

It's just a move. It's just a move. Don't panic.

I mean, did you think her original 3rd Limit Break meant the Planet was called Earth?

 

[cold_spirit]

Is there something I can read that explains the issue with “Gaia”? Is it a perpetuated mistake? Or do people prefer “The Planet” because it makes it more general/relatable?

 

[LicoriceAllsorts]

I'll leave it to Shademp to explain

 

[Kain424]

Honestly been waiting for this to come up.
