I would be OK with that, but if I see one Cup Noodles so help me...

I can live with a little product placement as long as it's discreet and unobtrusive. From what I've played of FFXV, they seemed to do well following that idea. Sure, you saw the Coleman plates and such at camp, but nobody said anything about them and there were no scenes dedicated to pointing them out. They were just there, in the background, which is fine. I can't stand the I, Robot approach with its blatant advertising. Much as Lister can't stand Cup Noodles, hehe. Any Dwarfers here, btw?

Well it went to the other extreme, completely tongue-in-cheek, for the cup noodles angle. Which honestly I found very amusing. That doesn't mean it's something I want to happen regularly, but for what it was, I enjoyed the self-awareness. And, as I say, it did fit the vibe XV was going for more than it would any of the others.

I had just remembered the scene where Cloud is in a wheelchair and Tifa stays beside him to help. For some reason, that turned out to be the most emotional moment for me in the game. I had already felt bad enough seeing blocky, LEGO looking Cloud in a wheelchair. I don't even want to know how awful I'll feel seeing a realistic looking Cloud in that scenario...

I've seen some people laugh at this scene (because of the outdated graphics) and it breaks my heart.
Also I plan to draw this scene soon, I'm gonna cry into my tablet : /

I agree, a realistic rendition of the event would be a strong gut-punch. More than seeing Cloud wheelchair-bound, it's really seeing him into a vegetative state that would be blood-chilling, IMO. You thought your hero was a badass, but now he needs to be fed through a tube and have someone take care of his diapers *shudders*

^ Well I guess there has to be a device which gets Marlene alone so that Aerith can send her to Elmyra’s house. Maybe some other NPCs support Marlene with running the bar to make it more believable, but they run off/die in the general bedlam of platefall.

^This! And for the Remake, Tifa could still be saying the same to Marlene as in the OG, but in reality, Johnny will be the one who's taking over business. This could be something that's already routine for them.
