Hopes for Remake & Rebirth (story/content)

[looneymoon]

Video games are lots of fun, but they aren't life.

someone clearly has not seen the list of things I need to do in Persona 5 Royal

my 4 part time jobs aren't gonna work themselves!

 

[Rhoey]

Not that I care about her that much (sorry).

HOW DARE YOU!?!? Yes, hello, officer? A stranger on the internet said he doesn't care about Jessie Rasberry!

 

[Ryeleigh]

I know you're making a joke, and it's kind of funny, but in a tragic sense. And I'm a party-pooper, so I'll indulge it.

The more disconnected we become from nature and the planet, the more sick and miserable we become - and there is a significant push to get humanity even more disconnected (AI, Metaverse, brain implants, VR, transhumanism, etc). Isn't that the deepest message in FFVII to begin with? What happens to our race and our world when we become disconnected and play God?

Video games are lots of fun, but they aren't life. Sure, we can have the metaphysical discussion about life itself being a video game/simulation (which it is), but the purpose of life isn't to escape it, but to live it. And life isn't just fun and games; it's also hard, bitter, way too short, and taken for granted. The sickness in our society is that we treat everything - our lives, our bodies, each other, the planet we live on - as disposable and usable, with no respect and no love. It's crucial to become aware of this so that we can heal, and not head towards a dystopian future.

Jokes aside, one of the most dystopic things I've ever read was that cows are hooked up to VR of outside so they'll be "less anxious" and produce more milk.

I haven't heard of it, but nothing surprises me anymore. They'd rather invest in VR than in improving the conditions for the animals they are exploiting. I wouldn't be surprised if the companies practicing this would use it to label their milk "humane" or "pasture raised" or whatever fake green label they use. But it's monstrous, either way.

I'm amazed it took this long for someone to make this thread, but here it is Go wild

Everything

Hahaha.... I don't hate her, but not on my favorites list either. I'm a Turks' girl all the way.
I loved Jessie's chapter though. The best from the new content in Remake IMO.

I dunno, y’all. I think they could go a step further and just kill every other female character except Madam M. Her and Cloud share an intimacy that no one else can live up to, and killing every other girl will remove any potential distractions from the true love story between a masseuse and her client.

Was that posted by the one who shall not be named?

“Touch grass” is basically Gen Z rediscovering a new way to tell people to “go outside”

Little does Gen Z know, but I live in a concrete jungle. There is no grass when I go outside. Checkmate muahaha

So uh, I dunno if this or the actual remake thread is the place to post but as its story related maybe here has anyone seen what's been going on in relation to Nojima on twitter

A certain someone harrasing him on his personal twitter account was apparently the straw that broke the camel's back and now Nojima has tweeted to say he is no longer going to speak about the remake.

What an absolute shame that its come to this for him and he doesn't feel comfortable commenting any more, and I think its disgusting he's been driven to it.

Just as an extra note I'm not saying that certain someone was fully responsible for this but evidence suggests played a huge part in it. I've seen them constantly bombard all offical FG channels to get their Jessie fix in anything remotely FF7 related including including on FFBE and Dissidia Opera Omnia channels

Nojima has from what I understand been getting harassment over shipping but this seemed to be the final straw and was relentless.

People need to have respect the creators and their work, and stop the harrasment and bombarding. This is when the creators feel they have to quiet down on giving any info to their fans or feel they need to back off its crazy and disgusting

Shipping makes people crazy.

You know, this probably would have never been a thing if only there was some overt romantic affection displayed by Cloud. Implied sex and adopted children aren't good enough. He needed to have an on-screen kiss and biological children to squash this nonsense, plus a giant poster saying "I'm in a romantic relationship" on the wall in his room.

But that ship has sailed. Square doesn't want to piss off the fandom so they make it just obscure enough for these people to continue to exist. Shipping is a disease.

 

[Eerie]

Square has already given the same clear answer for over 10 years now. If people don’t want to hear it, maybe it’s because they don’t want to.

 

[LNK]

Yep, Cloud and Tifa bump uglies, and take care of two kids as their parents, in a complicated relationship.

 

[KindOfBlue]

At this point, I want them to have an on-screen kiss/“I love you”/marriage and/or biological kids just to see what kind of spin the naysayers come up with…when it comes to headcanon, shippers sure are a creative bunch lol

 

[cold_spirit]

Honestly disliking how often shipping comments are leaking from the dedicated LTD thread these days, no matter how trivial.

My latest theory:

[Golden Ear]

I'm down to see what happens and i'm mostly done theorizing but please whatever happens DO NOT have the whispers force Aerith to her death in the Forgotten Capital.

 

[Maidenofwar]

Not outwith the realms of possibility unfortunately.

 

[Golden Ear]

I would rather that Aerith live and Zack live and have everything not lead into Advent Children in the end than to have Aerith's death handled by having the Whispers forcing it to happen. That would feel so unbelievably cheap, really hope that's not what they're going for.

 

[Maidenofwar]

Will just have to wait and see I guess. Is possible those who think Cloud will kill Aerith, that might be if the whispers force Cloud's hand. Not long now to see who was right in the end

Zack pops into existence from an alternate universe. He and Cloud work together to fight off Sephiroth and protect Aerith...

...then the whispers appear and push her down some stairs

She's tumbling down the stairs while that canned Aerith battle damage dialogue plays "Reaaaallly huuuurrts...."

Hahaha. If they follow that up by having the whispers push Sephiroth down some stairs to his death in part 3 I'd say perfect end to the trilogy, no notes

 

[Rydeen]

Pushing Aerith down the stairs hurts me too much, but Sephy is fair game, he can take it.

 

[Leafonthebreeze]

I'd edit this to be aerith but I'm drunk and on my phone

woe, homestuck be upon you

RIP Staerith

time yet to add hopes Re-(part-III) ?
