Been rewatching Tim’s videos up to the point where I played the game, right before being locked in jail inside the Shinra building. Then checked a playthrough of the fan translation as well, and i must say i’ve spoken before my turn. Turns out i’m no genius able to imagine whole lost text boxes or janky translation (a heifer, lol) based on watching Tim’s videos. There’s just so much that doesn’t make any sense in the original if you haven’t played the game since ‘97: Tifa realising Barret might be looking up underneath her skirt when they run up the stairs in the Shinra building (i thought she had to pee); Guys in the gym being ‘like you’ actually being about one person only: Big Bro; Aerisu saying about Zack ‘it was the first person I liked’ in the fan translation comes closer than ‘my first boyfriend’ based on what Tim said. I’ll give both a go; just like you all did. That linked post is terrible though indeed, so yeah thanks for staying as objective as you can about it.
