Crow T. Robot: We do!
I regret nothing.
Am I Mike or Tom Servo then?
This
This story has a beginning, middle, and end. Some of what you see in the middle may change based on your choices, the end
will not.
The last actual plot variable in the entire game is Tifa's level of confidence under the highwind based on her Affection Value, and regardless they confirm mutual romantic feelings in that scene officially.
I wanna say it's a different interview that was being discussed in tandem, but it was always back there so... Could be either.
Regardless, it was said.
Nomura thinks it's best when you figure shit out on your own. If hordes of people get it wrong, that's not his problem.
Nomura likes "engagement." Nojima wasn't people to understand.
Are people really arguing that one of Tifa's many qualities being "maternal" in some way hurts Cloti? After Cloud literally called Aerith mom? That's good old fashioned Both Sides-ism.
Yeah it doesn't make much sense where I'm standing either.
It's funny how hard it is for people to let go of SOLDIER!Cloud and the illusion of choice he provides.
Some people just don't want to admit they got snookered in any way.
Agreed, though this is one of those times I wish he'd just say "I'm not answering that at this time, move on."
It makes things so much simpler.
How long did it take for certain folks to seize on "wanted" being past tense and assume that it doesn't apply to the present, which is optional except it's really Aerith? Was it measured in nanoseconds?
I mean that's been the usual BS answer since '97 when we learned of the sealed up secret wish. "It's in the past" and all.
Funny how Aerith who was deadwas never in the past. Only Tifa, standing right beside him. Time's funny like that sometimes.
Well folk methods can't all be wrong, sign me up.
You just want to burn dumb people. It's okay, you can admit it.
Sadly I'm already buried in cats that I love plus my mother-in-law shaped person's cats so I should hold off on this.
As always, no rush. Just put it at the top of the nameboard.
Why would you wish this on Sonic, he has so much internet bullshit of his own... Oh wait you meant the in-universe .exe stuff. Yeah that could be fun and give Tails something to do. I'm down.
Though meeting someone's edgelord navi based off of Sonic.exe would also be hilarious.
Or if you're Matter Eater Lad. Yes I am referencing that. I still regret nothing.
He could have been cool if he had any ability to do something with the eaten matter. Like Eat-Man.
Will definitely give this a look later.
Feel free to watch the rest of our stuff too.
You will not be disappointed I don't think.
From what I saw in Rebirth, Fluffy was a prolific breeder. Ergo, baskets of kittens riding on Fenrir. I think I might have diabetes just picturing it.
She had a litter of six, at least, so yeah. All the kittens for everyone. Edge needs mousers.
My own is substantially easier, as it lacks the rasp and volume. I JUST ENDEAVOR TO ACTUALLY SPEAK IN BOLDED ALL-CAPS. Also sees a fair but of use since it's easier for Clicky to understand (she has pretty severe hearing loss especially for higher pitched sounds so the deeper I can go the better).
For me it's vibrating my throat to create a stereo effect as I talk.
That's adorably inconvenient.
She likes to be way up high. She rides on my shoulder and arm like a parrot.
Well heretic or infidel, it amounts to the same. You're both correct and know how to debate and they hate you for it
Wear it with pride.
I do. It's why I call myself Deus Admiral. Those were insults I repurposed.
Ok so it is 2024, good. Had me worried, some of the last 14 years did feel more like a a nightmare than reality. But, I got three good reasons to never take them back.
Blinky, Pinky and Clyde?
To be fair, isn't that all words? When using a word with a looser or more varied meaning isn't it just as or more important to be precise about how it's being used?
And I do both know what you mean and agree, I'm just saying.
In this case because there's no other word with a meaning as specific as canon, I feel we ought to be more precise with it than normal. Don't want another literally on our hands, after all.
For some, a bio-baby isn't enough. Nothing ever will be. For those who follow the narrative, Denzel wasn't even necessary, he's a cherry on top.
He's a handy narrative shorthand for "Cloud is a family man now." I'd actually like for there to be more for him to do. I guess Nojima agreed which is why he wrote Episode Denzel.
That is funny. Hilarious, actually.
I mean, I do suspect it's purely to drive a wedge in to pretend there's space for a C/A conclusion and then insist on that conclusion because we "can't say for sure" etc. etc. etc. Clerith of the gaps and all.
Tempted to write a parody version of Professional Pirate for the LTD.
"Cause when you're a dishonest CAltist... It hurts to tell the truth!"
Do eet!
Now, putting aside how ridiculous this claim is for a moment... how do you even run an orphanage that is a rival to another orphanage? Do you compete on number of orphans in your care? Number successfully adopted out? Do we throw them into Battle Square over at the Gold Saucer?
Orphan battles in the streets to determine who rules the city, maybe?
Laugh at them a bit too, for good measure.
The only accurate translations are done in a WacDonald's, everyone knows that
A beacon of truth and honestly, WacDonald's is.
Pretty much this. Even back in the bad old days this was true outside of bad faith actors like BlankBeat and Anastar who posted exclusively to pick fights in the name of Pink Hell.
It was darkly hilarious to see them turn on translators who were formerly totally trustworthy in their eyes because a translation came out "Cloti."
Are you serious? I remember, if only vaguely, some accusations of that kind of shenanigans, but never heard if anyone got to the bottom of it. That's low, if true. And being as I'm hearing it from our Admiral, I have to assume that at minimum it's the most obvious conclusion based on available evidence.
On at least one occasion they were caught using Hitoshura's translation with one word changed. It was either a crisis core keyword or a character profile, I think. There were also instances of just making complete bullshit up like Koi SPACE Bito which means something completely different to Koibtio.
Chronologically in-universe sounds best to me. By import or impact would be too subjective, and in-universe chronology should mix up old and new out of universe a bit. Also you definitely should get the SSL up again ASAP FGJ, and quoting from it should be SOP until all opposition is FUBAR
I can start with the quote from 2000 gil to be a hero then.
I haven't heard Material Jesus in years. Ahhh nostalgia.
When people are making her to be a saintly messianic figure, I'm gonna mock them for it, simple as.
"But wait! Character relationship charts say Cloud and Tifa are just childhood friends!"
End my suffering
They say the same about several couples who get married in the end!
Except in Rebirth Cait's readings were 3/3
That cat is on a roll
But they're all very vague, is my point.
I completely forgot that reading to be honest. I was thinking about those 3 he gave to Cloud at Gold saucer.
1. "Things are looking up so throw your caution to the wind. Put your trust in others and a last minute twist may pleasantly surprise you"
2. "Watch your belongings. Lucky color: black"
3. "Seek and you are sure to find. But alas, you shall forever lose what you cherish most."
All three readings were spot on.
All of these lack a lot of detail. You could make the case that these are all ironic, in that for example, putting your trust in Cait gives a last minute twist of betrayal, the Black Materia is decidedly unlucky, etc.
Also, re: the translator subtly changing that quote, anyone still calling her Aeris in the last decade is immediately suspect to me.
