So whats next for FFVII?

[The Twilight Mexican]

The old guard on FFVII are the guys still in charge of FFVII, Kuraudo. Not sure what you're talking about.

Whoever the hell designed the remake of costumes and stuff for FFVII Comp. Needs a kick in the face. Just saying.

And if the old crew is working full on FFVII "comps" then who the hell was the guy who wanted to change the Jenova fight in Crisis core? You know not have Sephy go in and fight, but have dear old' mummy do it? Give him a punch in the nose while you're at it.

You mean...

Nomura?

Who designed the old stuff as well?

 

[The Twilight Mexican]

Yeah, that'd be Nomura. And the idiot with the idea of having JENOVA involved in the CC battle was Kitase, who directed the original game.

I'm not using "idiot" ironically here, by the way. That really was a fucking retarded idea.

Wait. What'd I miss?

zacks so cool he beat the shit out of sephys mommy and made sephy cry

 

[The Twilight Mexican]

When they were making Crisis Core, Kitase thought it would be a great idea to have Zack fight both Seph and JENOVA in the Nibel reactor. Tetsuya Nomura of all people was the voice of reason who told him it was a bad idea.

Being told you've gone too far into the absurd by Tetsuya Nomura is like Audrey Hollander pulling you aside to tell you that's just too much buttsex.

So the consensus is that we would like go get their younger selves from the past and have them do the remake?

Pretty much. Identify at what point in time they all fried their brains on that bad batch of drugs they got into and grab them an hour before.

 

[ForceStealer]

Frankly, Nomura's been fairly reasonable through all of this. Kitase is the one that seems to have lost it. Nomura is everyone's favorite whipping boy, but AC/C is the only one that he directly and almost exclusively controlled.

I'm sensing a few more years of this...

SE- a remake is possible.

Fans- Yay but we know this already.

SE- a remake would take 100,000 years to make.

Fans- Oh boo. I told you that there would be no remake !

SE- We have been testing on future technology on what a FF VII remake would be like.

Fans- whoo guess what ! They are going to make a FF VII remake !

SE- We have decided that we can't be 'effed to make a FF VII remake.

Fans- So that means no remake ?!

SE- I've been looking outside my window and I was thinking about what a FF VII remake would be like....

Fans- So FF VII remake 2013 I guess ?

SE- We are too busy screwing up FF XIV to make a remake at the moment.

Fans-. "........."

LMAO!!! LOVE IT!!

Frankly FFVII still needsto be wrapped up. Leaving it unresolved would basicly render any meaning the comp may have had null and void. At least with a new game theres a possibility we may get some sort of payoff. The comphas gotten better as its gone after all. AC BC and DOC may have been shit, but CC was actually a decent game that could have been greatif not for the cliches, and ACC was a vastimprovement over AC.

I think the worst that could be done is declaring the comp nulland void, because right there all the time and effort we've invested in playing the comps titles and understanding the plot is rendered fucking useless, which would be a far bigger slap in the face then simply making another game that doesn't live up to the OG.

I think the comp as a whole isn't really that bad, people just give it crap because it seems underwhelming when compared with the OG. Itskinda like this. The OGis kinda like having meaningful sex with a woman you deeply love, where as the comp is sex for thesake of sex with some chick you picked up in Vegas. Its still fun, but when compared with the more meaningful sex it seems unsatisfying.

Now a remake would be nice as well. If it sucks I can just go back to the original and all will be well, and if its good I can have more meaningful sex.

:joker:

Elaborate, please?

- Three different versions of the Nibelheim Incident.

- Yuffie & Vincent's were they/weren't they at the final battle from AC/C & DoC.

- FFVII UO says that LO was from Tseng's POV, where Sephiroth jumped into the Lifestream but his report reads: "By the report ... it is considered that Cloud killed Sephiroth..."

- Genesis's existence in the G-Reports is deemed highly classified, even though he had a fanclub in CC and only disappeared a few years before FFVII.

I could post some more, but the bottom line is that Squenix clearly don't pride themselves on creating a coherent body of work. Like I said, the remake won't 'complement' the Compilation, it'll only throw up more inconsistencies.

Well, since I haven't played CC yet, I can see it only now.

Thanks for the info.


@Que, it was a serious question.

 

[Joker]

There is nothing that is needed here.

FFS, move along.

 

[Dashell]

@Que, it was a serious question.

I was just surprised that someone out there wasn't aware of all the inconsistencies XD

 

[Tifabelle]

Personally, the "inconsistencies" don't really bother me all that much. The only one was the Sephiroth jumped/was thrown in/fell in/moonwalked in business. But I've gotten over it. The other stuff, like plot holes and whatnot - all games/movies/tv shows have them. w/e

Thank you Tifabelle; you've restored my health.

Why have you put inconsistencies in inverted commas?

 

[Tifabelle]

Why have you put inconsistencies in inverted commas?

Because it's all an illusion in your mind. And they're quotations not commas


Seriously though. Because I don't consider Genesis appearing in Nibelheim an inconsistency. It was something they added later, but it's extra to what we already knew. It didn't change anything, just added stuff. And Vincent/Yuffie - they were optional characters which is why they didn't have them in the end of the OG. So they tried to explain that in DC. And no one cares about LO anymore. I know there are others, but those are some of the ones you mentioned.

- Genesis's existence in the G-Reports is deemed highly classified, even though he had a fanclub in CC and only disappeared a few years before FFVII.

This is definitely either an inconsistency or just plain dumb ass writing, though. The only way they could explain this is if Shinra had a 'mind wipe' button for the entire planet. You can try to explain it away with 'well Shinra has a tight grip blah blah blah', but the flow of information just does not work that way.

 

[ForceStealer]

I never took the fanclubs especially seriously, they seemed merely there to poke fun at stereotypical fangirls. Indeed, is there a single NPC anywhere in the game besides thsoe three that mention Genesis or Angeal?

That said, yeah, it's still sloppy.

I wasn't sure about this one, as I don't remember. But the G reports are from after they declared Genesis dead? What did it say - that his existence was deleted from the records? That could still be true, even if people remember him. They refer to Sephiroth as "S", but sure as shit people remember him.

In actuality, they probably weren't paying attention to their own writing.


EDIT: I just had a thought. The people that write all those little things (like G Reports or fan club newsletters) probably aren't the same people that write the script and other things, right? Not that it's an excuse, but it could explain.

They probably killed those girls.
