yeah this scene was... dgkgjdg lmao I don't know. Obviously, my Cloti brain loves it but sir pls, your good friend just performed a heartfelt song and cried on stage and her bestie is gushing about her and your response is "Next time, I wanna see you on stage"? STAND UP lmao but yes, more Tifa performance foreshadowing
He might, I'm not sure!
I like that she rushes over to help, then after a little bit she realizes she's looking at Cloud.
Her entire attempts at romance with him are like subconscious attempts to bring Zack back. It'd be bittersweet on its own.
My rage against marketing as proof is so powerful it made it into the major LTD article. That's not even the whole of it. I've gone on that rant like three or four times, talking about each of the FF commercials, Japanese and English and one or two others and how they all mislead or aren't reflective of the game (most of the times these are tongue in cheek on the commercial's part. I was making a point)
Actually, no. This is referencing an incident before then, when he's assigned to protect a scientist who winds up getting caught in the Avalanche/ Turks crossfire. Cloud is pushed to the edge and while initially he is a joke of a unit with his gun, he becomes a hell of a lot more formidable once he gets a sword. I hope this sequence gets adapted in EC at some point.
"tank and spank" I just laughed in an inappropriate setting due to reading this.
Well you have to get her date so yes lol. But there's also Maru's quest in Nibelheim where they talk about it and Tifa says she can't sing at all lol.
My first guess was that he was like a copy but with Rebirth that seems moot, seeing the transformation into an actual one... eh so I wonder too.
Of course!
Correct me if I’m wrong, but as far as I know only about a couple months pass between Zack’s death and Tifa finding a Cloud right? I’d bet Cloud just wanders around the slums like a zombie until then.
I think @starcape91 was asking if he says it on the kiss date version or the standard version, but I'm not sure
Ya Zack dies in September and Tifa finds Cloud in December....? I think
Assuming the timeline holds, Zack dies mid-September. Cloud meets Tifa again on like the day before the bombing mission, so Dec 8th. Even if you assume they didn't do the bombing the literal next night it can't have been more than a few days.
One of the newer lines that stood out to me in Remake was from the reactor mission. It was Barret telling Cloud, "Prove to me that you're the man Tifa says you are." Or something close x3 And in my head, I was all, "Well, now, that's a tad on the nose, is it?"
I remember seeing this type of thing in a soap opera before. Genders reversed, though. And iirc, it was treated as a problem that had to be corrected. At the end, The man agreed that while the woman looked like his deceased wife (as in they could be like identical twins), she's right that if they were to stay together, he has to regard her separately. One of their arguments mid-story was the woman asking if he loved her or the face of his ex-wife that he sees when he looks at her.
Its really cute in English too. I do love the scene, I just like to bully Cloud for being such a simp
So then it can be surmised that Cloud and Aerith know each other for only two weeks, three tops?
Well, she says she hasn’t sang much before, not that she can’t. But she doesn't have to literally sing for the song to be from her POV.
Yeah, it’s not like anyone sang Hollow. Imagine how weird it would be if Cloud sang it…….
Right. I took the line about her being on stage to be foreshadowing to her being more main in Part 3. Not literally performing on stage next game.
It's very on the nose but it also makes sense given that Barret's putting a lot of trust and money in him based solely on Tifa's say so.
Are you familiar with X-men? There's a situation like that where Cyclops falls in love with a woman who reminds him of Jean Grey when the latter is presumed dead and gets married with her, has a kid, then runs off the moment Jean turns up alive. Now it turns out this woman was in fact a clone of Jean created by an evil mastermind but it was still a dick move of him.
Given that she dies before the new year ticks over, and it's implied the people of Knowlespole are celebrating a christmas equivalent, yes.
It's more a "think about how much warmer it must be compared to what they're used to"
Is it just me, or does it feel like have incorporated some of Britt's mannerisms into Aerith in Rebirth? I know it's a completely different Japanese mocap artist, but for some reason her motions seem distinct from how they were in Remake.
I can’t wait for Icicle Inn and (maybe Modeoheim?) and the glacier and snowboarding. I love snowy stuff, and it also is the start of my favorite parts of the game. Pretty much everything after disc 1 lol
How so? Tifa and Aerith always felt p distinct to me re: gestures. Tifa does that funny angled arm and wrist thing, lots of hands behind her back and leaning forward, hand on hip. Aerith is more feminine wrist shakes, double hand waves... I'm not familiar at all with the actress' mannerisms, though, so I wouldn't really know.
