Pretend DoC NEVER happened.

[Ravynne Nevyrmore]

I just wrote it off as shitty, cheesy as hell writing, though I would prefer to think it was an intentional funny.

Incidentally, there is a line in a song they play at work that says "time to save the world" (but it says it all sexy-like) and every time I hear it I think of Chaos!Vincent getting all hyped up to kick some ass with his cheerleading squad. ><

 

[Shinra Scientist]

I thought so too, and they certainly messed up his age, but since learning that his one deep line in FF7 was actually a horrible translation error

Oh great. lol. But still, his character has changed from the original FFVII.

I don't understand why you people had such a hard time understanding that she was alive when they spend like 5 minutes discussing that very fact.

It was an optional scene that's easily overlooked. I barely even remembered it myself except for her saying, "I never had a chance to hold him." Everything else was simply forgotten. I'm not blaming SE for that. *shrugs*

But then why wasn't that shitty, cheesy as hell writing in anything else Compilation? And why would it be used on the one character who it makes the least sense to use with unless it was a joke. Vincent wants to be a hero even less than Cloud does, so why would he say "It's time to save the world" unless he was half-joking, because its ridiculous (to him) that he's the one that has to do it.

I would've expected you of all people to like the joke, given you liking Vincent so much.

 

[Max Payne]

If that was meant to be a big joke, it was definitely a bad one.

I think the fact that he/she is a big Vincent fan, is the reason they feel that way. It was completely inappropriate all things considered.

Doesn't "Hmph...guess I have no choice..." precede that line? I thought it was Vincent reverting to (anti-hero) type.

Probably, or maybe SE for some reason thought that would be a cool line...which it wasn't XD Theres a spoof of that scene captain planet style on youtube if any one wants to check it out. Funny thing is that line is in both the japanese and english version making me want to crawl in a hole and cry. And while i'm on the topic of dialogue and voice i would like to add that if Doc didn't happen and another game was made the dialogue in the english version should at least MATCH the character's mouths. The whole picnic scene with Vincent and Lucrecia was like a horrible 1960's imported movie. I think Vincent says some stupid line like "I was resting my eyes" and it was just horribly...horribly done. I don't understand why SE doesn't have a japanese option on their games like a lot of others do. Like the new Resident Evil game. Hell i the voice acting in that is 100x better than what happened in DOC

 

[ForceStealer]

I'm always confused when the lips don't match up and I see and easy way it could have. That picnic scene you mentioned, Lucrecia says,

"But...I just wanted [something something]"

She stops at "but" when, obviously in Japanese she said "demo" so it didn't match. So why didn't do what they were actually pretty good about in AC with having Cloud say "But I" or "I just" as then at least they're moving their mouths for each syllable. It's pretty easy and makes it look loads better, so why not?

 

[Midnyte92]

Okay I hated the battle system of Dirge of Cerberus and there was that bit where they all yell Vincent which I found stupid, I don't think the game was great but I liked some of the storyline and I liked the music and i wouldn't go as far as pretending it doesn't exist

 

[Ravynne Nevyrmore]

Oh great. lol. But still, his character has changed from the original FFVII.

Has it? Or have we just imagined him speaking differently?

Let me rephrase that: I KNOW we all imagined him speaking differently. ; And it could very well be his ridiculous voice that makes his character seem different. Have his actions and dialogue really changed?

What they did fuck up, of course, was his age.

I think the fact that he/she is a big Vincent fan, is the reason they feel that way. It was completely inappropriate all things considered.

You seriously don't know my gender by now? "a.k.a. Katie" might have tipped you off.

 

[Max Payne]

Gonna be honest with you, that means nothing on the net.

And I don't even bother looking at people's stats anymore, Mako was 10 years old last I checked.

 

[Ravynne Nevyrmore]

Mako IS 10 years old.

 

[Gale]

I rather liked some of the flashbacks, and Reeve.

That's about as nice a thing as I can say in regards to DoC.

Okay.


okay sorry I'll stop being a smart ass and read the whole thread next time.
