Hmmm... I like it, but is it intended as a chorus or first verse? I could go either way, but it changes my preferred placement of the theremin.
I was thinking of the hook to lead into the chorus, but I'm flexible.
Fuck, turn hard right then and through the rock formations, then due north. You can grab a Shaymin without needing discontinued event items
Knew you'd get the reference. Fun fact, my wife lived in Hokkaido for a time and we have a short series- sadly now abandoned- called Console Tours where I wander about Sinnoh and the wife compares it to real locations in Hokkaido.
Might have to look into it, I've heard of SotM... somewhere. TVTropes, maybe? Sounded good whoever brought it up.
Possibly me in years gone by.
Cloud is multifaceted. Most of the facets are "grumpy" at minimum, but still multifaceted.
The facet that's not Grumpy is the "together with Tifa" facet. That one's happy but socially awkward.
So a Triton or Sea Elf could wreak havoc from above, but a winged Tiefling could probably do it better. Interesting. And giving high level summoners/conjurers more options to play with on top of that.
The idea of the setting is that civilization is trying to A: raise land above the cloud sea to create your classic flying island, and B: find the source of the cloud sea and if possible stop it. It also allowed for spelljammer like play without need for space travel.
Appreciated. Besides, I'll always have the memory of walking out the front door of that job backwards while flying a double eagle and cackling. Immediately after the manager being flipped off had been overruled by their boss whilst attempting to fire me.
Always appreciated when you can say fuck you to a shit job or manager.
I was refreshing my comics knowledge with a wiki walks last night, I understand we already have a Honey Badger (she's sweet, plus claws) so I don't see why not.
It's related and he can hang out with the family mascot!
That tracks. With how multiverse focused the Spider books get even compared to Marvel as a whole, individual code names for 616 at least really should be the rule.
It's funny, X-men used to be the multiverse focused chunk of the line.
One of the finest moments in comics history, Spider-Girl smacking around a young lady in a familiar (ridiculous) green and yellow suit and casually telling the bystanders "my dad used to beat up her dad."
MC2 and Renew Your Vows alike deserve all the love they got and then some.
And then you see how shat upon he is by life in 616 and you wonder who editoria's conflakes he pisses in.
I remembered our ever lovin' blue eyed pick for Barret after posting, decided not to edit and let you have the correction. S'what you do, after all.
Danke.
Not just a pilot, also an engineer and would be astronaut. I hate to suggest this but... MCU Rocket Raccoon?
Or, going back to Logan, isn't Mr. Howlett one of the mechanics/most common pilots for the Blackbird? Expertly trained with explosives as per the Dynamite limit break, fights primarily by throwing himself blades first at opponents? Honestly Cid's various Dragoon jumping stabs kinda work as self-propelled Fastball Specials. Also, chain smoking. Yeah I like this better than Rocket, despite my love of Rocket.
I was trying to avoid relying on the X-men, but yes, Wolverine fits quite well. Plus, he's been Australian, now he can be southern.
While constantly trying to edit its own genes to isolate one of the fused beings from the other while granting fire resistance to a specific half but constantly stepping on its own toes and doing both. At least it's keep them out of everyone's hair for a while, till they get desperate.
Truly, a fate worthy of being Hojo.
Sadly Zoidberg's new shell house at the Forgotten Capital just burned down. Something about a cigar.
It wasn't sephiroth that killed Aerith, it was smoke inhalation! ZOIDBERG!
Ah yes, the downfall of most Sith. Isn't this even the source of most of Vader's actual losses?
I believe so, yes.
Sonic deserves better. I mean it's not Sonic 06 bad but that's almost the definition of damning with faint praise.
Sonic 06 just being damning straight up.
At least the red and black spiders are big enough to see 'em coming now. Just watch out for the koalas, you know it's required that they become Drop Bears in Fallout or anything like Fallout.
I need to find my stats for the evil Arborial Dwarves in DnD who were a parody of Drow and Drop bears. They started combats by falling from trees butt first trying to land on people's heads. While wearing a giant steel butt spike.
I'd question my sanity for coming back down south if I'd had any other options.
That presumes there's sanity left to be had.
Can't wait till someone tries to add a rose to a bouquet and ends up with thorns stapling it to their hand for the rest of the round.
The basket it somehow wedged inside the arm itself, flailing about as they move.
This is everything I dreamed of when I suggested it.
I aim to please.
I imagine most people who even briefly experience quantum superposition would come out of it confused or broken in some way. Poor kids not a Time Lord after all.
If anyone is in FF it's Gilgamesh.
Or Ardyn Izunia. He's like the evil version of Tom Baker (Colin baker joke goes here).
Same old Bullshit, greater sense of desperation.
I don't see the difference from before
There seems to be a greater franticness this time. Like they're desperate to self soothe.
Also, re NC and LS sequences: for the NC scene, I don't think there will be anything else than the Nibelheim incident at play. Because it's very important to convey to the player that what makes Cloud break is the fact that Tifa doubts him. Because I feel that this sentence "it's only your opinion that counts" that makes Tifa realise that she needs the truth, that she wants to believe in him. It is their bond being tested while they're being manipulated and gaslit by Sephiroth and... it does not break. Cloud breaks, but not their bond and this is why she decides to search for him after this. If you put Aerith's death here, it will muddle the message as well as the message that their bond is being tested, it makes less sense for Tifa to search for Cloud after this. Despite everything, you have to show that the connection is still here for this scene to work, as well as the following ones.
For the Lifestream sequence, I'm still surprised at how many fans don't get that the first part of this sequence is a huge love confession (the second part being the resolution of the Nibelheim incident); I mean it's even said that this is where they realise their feelings for each other there but people stubbornely refuse to take this into account when crafting theories. This cannot be a group project, at most we'll have Aerith (and Zack?) guiding them in the Lifestream, protecting them, but that's as far as it can go. Yes, the Lifestream scene will definitely be expanded upon; it is not a surprise as we see Tifa being aware of one of the core elements, ie Cloud actually trying to help her in Mt Nibel when they were kids - that one memory that PROVED that Cloud was the true Cloud, which means they'll have to rely on something else now to prove that. We also see the Black Whispers attacking Cloud's memories in the Lifestream at the end. To me that shows expansion of the scene with new additions, however as the Weapons fled the place of the Lifestream memories, one has to wonder what happens then to Cloud's memories. IMHO they will have to talk a lot more about memories and their feelings associated, Cloud's hopes and dreams (Cosmo Canyon speaks a lot about the essence of the Lifestream being more than just memories, so I think we'll see that). I have said it before but to me, CT is probably one of SE's greatest love stories and we will see that being developped inside the Lifestream.
On a side note I was watching Welonz yesterday playing and she said that Cloud and Tifa never really had a conversation about their fight in Kalm, that the topic had been avoided so far. And yes, of course as a new player you can't understand this, but the Kalm fight is a setup not only for CT to open up about each other in Rebirth, but also for the NC and LS scenes - I realised this as she was talking about it.
Honestly for Aerith's death, I see it more as an aknowledgement later on when they return to the city of the Ancients and we can have her death and burial for real, that Cloud admits he imagined having saved her when it was not the case. Because, it is what happened there. The same way we need to have an aknowledgement on how Zack's death traumatised him as well as what happened after Cloud beat Sephiroth - this part was left out in the OG outside the Lifestream scene because it had no place there, and I feel the same towards Aerith's death.
Yeah, I've been thinking, and we don't need to confront her death, we can just acknowledge it, have Cloud go "right after it happened, I wasn't sure what happened. Part of me knew she was dead, part of me thought I'd saved her at the last second" Do that when the party is watching the memory projection and you can lead into "But it was always her saving us. She wasn't worried about her own safety. She wanted to save us. Let's not let that hope be in vein, let's go kick Sephiroth's but. Mosey Mosey Mosey."
It has nothing to do with the LS scene and the Aerith death scene
And Cloud was heartbroken because he was rejected by Tifa
Play the game again, fool
You want to change it that way in part 3
I know you're CA, so shut up
Hi, who the fuck are you and why are you shitting up this topic? I've checked your post history and you have primarily just said piss obvious shit in a confrontational way and accused other posters of being Cleriths because they have panic attacks about Square Enix fucking things up.
Isn't this something they do with each Ultimania release one way or another? Same old shit to me at this point.
There's nothing new to their actions, but they're trying very hard to push it and I feel it betrays a desperation and an attempt to hold onto their own self assurance that they backed the right horse.
I don't really agree with the whole "Clerith wins because he doesn't give a shit about Tifa" thing.
Because if the game tells us anything, it's that Tifa's death is the only one to get a specific reaction from Cloud. So she's special in her own way.
What did Cloud do when he saw Aerith die? He created a new memory. Something we've already seen in the past. That's exactly what he did with Zack. Tifa's death is the only one that triggered Cloud's catatonic state. It's the one thing that simply stops him from functioning as a human being and moving on. It's literally his reason for living that disappears when Tifa's gone.
Sorry, but for me it's a crushing victory for Cloti in this part of the narrative.
Cloud loses his entire shit at the idea of Tifa being dead. With Aerith- in the half of the hypertime where she is dead and he's aware she's dead - he cries over her death and moves forward.
Not surprised at the cope. Grasping at the slightest thing in order for “proof”.
If CA fans think they won, well… they’re gonna have a hard time with Part 3.
I don't think they think they won, is the funny part. I think we're looking at frantic denial right now.
All the comparisons of Clouds reactions to death make no sense anyway, because they all pretend that his state of mind is the same from one day to the next.
If they hadn't noticed, Cloud wasn't exactly doing fine anyway. It's not like Cloud was having a good time, then Aerith died, and Cloud breaks. No, his mental state was on a steady slow decline for a while. Something that thinking he might have killed Tifa didn't help btw, it's not like after she got back his mental state went back to before he attacked her as though nothing happened. All these things took their toll and then Aerith dies at a point where he was already so far gone that it was enough to push him over the edge.
Yeah, that's a good analogy, it's like asking why Tifas death only made him fall over while Aeriths death made him fall off the edge, when at the moment Tifa "died" he was still 20 ft removed from the ledge, while with Aerith he was already teetering.
And Tifa's near death sent him well over the ledge and her coming back brought him back, and then remembering Zack's demise sent him teetering again and his sense of self has been continually eroding all throughout rebirth.
