It doesn't sound so romantic that "Cloud's" a virus that "Aeris" needs to fix, lmfao. No, wait, it's not even "Aeris" fixing it, it's just the magazine name. That was too funny, lol. Quite different than the majority of CT appearances referencing the promise, right?
Welcome!
I mean, when you get right down to it, almost all the things Cleriths reference as being CA that come from outside the narrative are
Are these posters for a concert?
I assume so. Laughable argument whatever it is.
30th Anniv of the series concert.
A lot of bizarre takes in circulation recently, none of which worth a second thought since they drag down characters into being terrible/manipulative. Pure nonsense.
Oh, absolutely nonsense, but also fascinating, because they reveal the mindset of the people making them and their actual priorities.
He's literally the guy who made the face and was directed on how to depict Cloud's body language in the moment. He has every right to state what was supposed to be portrayed here because he's literally the guy portraying it.
The park "date" does not mention jealousy.
What do you make of the argument that claims feelings of jealousy are canon to this scene as its in reference to the player option of "jealousy/envy" in OG?
Doesn’t really matter if it was an option in OG. Like many other options, it can easily have been removed and I strongly believe it’s been ignored.
I know this question isn't for me, but I'll jump in anyway.
Didn't Andrea's Japanese VA say "Everybody in Japan knows they (Cloud and Tifa) had sex"? Or something like that.
I think this is a mix of misunderstanding the record keeper june bride event that had Cloud, Aerith and Tifa in it, and extreme over the top cope and denial.
“It’s up to the player” and “player choice” has quickly become the most frustrating to me. The “well, in my playthrough that’s not what happened” is an offshoot of it and it’s engineered to derail any type of real discussion.
We're definitely back on the "Mutual feelings being confirmed is OPTIONAL" train for the highwind sequence too, based on my interactions on reddit last night.
It's funny because that scene in and of itself is a confession, Ultimanias say that this is where Cloud informed Tifa he held favour for her. Highwind scene or not she still knows lmao.
"There's no canon love interest, it's player choice, except Cloud and Tifa are just friends in Advent Children and he left a life with her for Aerith instead"
And don't all actual player-choice games start at zero? Which makes me wonder why didn't FF7 characters start at zero? I guess Tifa having prior affection points for Cloud makes sense if the gameplay and story were interconnected but the affection points ended up being kind of arbitrary and meaningless anyway?
Exactly. The feelings are revealed no matter who has what AV points. The only thing those change is how forward Cloud and Tifa are on acting on those feelings under the highwind, and even then, we know that they do confirm their feelings match under that scene.
Motte and Bailey argumentation, natch.
The other thing they do is claim these determine Cloud's feelings for people... somehow. I guess calling Barret your boyfriend in Don Corneo's trial is a valid interpretation of the character. Oddly not that popular a ship, from what I know.
I suspect the values were adjusted to give everyone a fighting chance, and that was easier than rebalancing all of the choices individually, especially given several are probably coded incorrectly.
