SPOILERS If Genesis does return, how would you like to see him handled?

Intergrade felt like a great opportunity to bring him back or at least reference him in a substantial way....the lack of that is disappointing. I wonder if he'll be involved after all, hmm.

Square Enix's marketing tends to put it all on the table before release. Even Remake's final trailer showed a hot second of Zack's last stand and the dome of Whispers over Midgar (super happy I skipped that trailer, though I did have the Zack surprise partially ruined by a thumbnail).

Since Genesis wasn't in Intergrade's final trailer, I pretty much had no hope for a surprise appearance.

I don't disagree.

But then, I don't really have any idea of what's in store for the final part of this Remake project. Could be a huge, epic blow-out conclusion. In which case, Genesis feels like a must to me.

Nonsense!

Genesis is a scholarly individual who is misunderstood by the fanbase, a fanbase who crave only action and fighting. Genesis came from a humble farm and grew up wanting only to spend time with his dear friends, Angeal and Sephiroth. Jealous, perhaps, but he still cared for them as his true comrades. Then he asked Sephiroth for help, when he was suffering badly, and Sephiroth told him to go and rot. This was understandably traumatic for Genesis. By the end of the game Genesis has become a true hero, blessed by Minerva herself as the protector of the planet, and legend says he will awaken to save the world from a future crisis...and that future crisis has arrived in remake.

Huzzah for Genesis!

Cool, but all his portrayal is soulless. A nice cliche background can't save a badly characterized char with 0 personality appeal (not sure if your post was sarcasm, but the point remains lol).
