The Final Fantasy VII LTD Thread (Round 4)

But Cloud's sidestory in KH was so overly vague that they ended up watering down Tifa's character faaar too much.

What exactly about Cloud's side story watered down Tifa's character?

I find her to be pretty unlikable in Kingdom Hearts II, but I also think she's mostly out of character too, so there's that.

For someone that shows up in like 4 scenes and has about 4 lines of dialogue I don't know how you can consider her unlikeable or OOC.

Then again this is coming from the perspective of someone who could really care less that she was included in the KH series. Clearly not someone who would freak out over her mere inclusion and threaten someone with death.

Not pointing fingers at anyone here. But examining the silliness that is KH so seriously for an excuse to pick on Tifa is what seems the stupid thing.

Tifa looking for Cloud in all unlikely places is obviously meant to be intentionally amusing, nothing more.

Yeah let's get back to how Tifa in Dissidia totally blows this whole LT thing out of the water!

LTD is srsz bzn. You gatta be on your toes.

Discuss serious catastrophic force of LTD pwnage that is Tifa in Dissidia. I'm sure we all want to 'freak out' and jump around in a similar manner to the clerith reaction to Aerith appearing in Kingdom hearts. Amirite?

Personally, I'm hoping for more of this:

LTD never fails to deliver lulz.

Personally, I think Dissidia will have as much of an epic romance now, as it always had. Absolutely none.

Just more than likely.

Fact which will no doubt be twisted and used one way or the other.

They tried to make her quirky with that. I actually like KH II Tifa, but she wasn't really Tifa so, whatever.

You mean everyone's homoerotic advancement towards Firion? I agree.

 

[Raquelborn]

I think KHII Tifa was still Tifa. She's just given a one-track mind which makes her seem more narrow-minded than usual. There wasn't much room for her character to be fully fleshed out when it was Cloud's side-story, IMO.

 

[OneWingedDemon]

Sephiroth is the evil born from Cloud's heart in KHs, or something equally stupid.

Bitch, don't be talkin smack about Sephiroth, ok? Or their special bond in KH. It's deep stuff, you'd never understand.

I wouldn't mark them as BFFs, certainly not so much so that they get a special reunion.

If anyone needs any kind of reunion, it'd be Aeris and Cloud. After all, she dies in the actual game. Everyone else gets their ending/closure. Aeris is taken from the team quite suddenly when she is brutally murdered by Seph. On Cloud's watch. And then he's all like "boohoo I fail." If I were to pick anyone to put in an AU, I think I may pick the chick that died and gave one of the most memorable moments in FF regardless of whether or not she's shagging the main character.

it's unclear what their KH relationship is, much less how much it may echo the one they had in FFVII.

Ja. And then its direct sequel has her waving pom poms as Cloud passes by. I don't see the great mysery. She's a friend.

WORD

 

[Celes Chere]

@Wintah - I am saying she wanted to get behind the wall, most likely to search for Cloud there too. She wasn't literally looking behind a picture frame or under the table, she was looking for the passage.

KH pretty much ruins every Final Fantasy character for me, I agree with you there. I'm saying Tifa's IQ isn't that of a rock, and KH didn't make her THAT stupid.

 

[Max Payne]

There are no real FF characters in KH.

 

[Celes Chere]

I think every thread needs moar Dean. &#9829; Fuck Sephiroth.

 

[OneWingedDemon]

KH never showed Tifa's IQ is that of a rock. Come on, let's not be ridiculous.

I'm only thanking you for the Dean gif, just so you know.

tbqh I think there's no shame in you guys freaking out with joy over Tifa and potential Cloti action. I'd sure as shit being doing backflips if Aeris was in it, lord knows I love me some AU!Aeris.

....Buuuuuuuuuuut I also should add that I wish the fandom would take itself less seriously with the AU stuff, in that if Cleris fans want to jump for joy over Kingdom Hearts or a ridiculous giant monopoly game just because their favorite characters are in it, it shouldn't immediately be met with "SHUT UP YOU DELUSIONAL CLERIS, IT'S MEANINGLESS." Just being a fangirl/boy =/= serious business debate, man.




Although I will admit I want Aeris in Dissidia just for the potential Aeris/Lightning.

I expect there to be as much romantic action in Dissidia 2 as Dissidia- none.

I think the problem is, we just see too many who DO take it as a serious meaningful hint, instead of just being cute. And also others who get upset if the other side 'jumps for joy' over the same. At least I keep running into them.

That's... vaguely incestuous.

 

[DrakeClawfang]

Man I have been gone a while. What I miss? Is Clerra still canon?

Now it's Tightning.

Nice to see you again Drake! You were missed.

Tingle shows up even less than that in your average Zelda game and still manages to be extremely unlikable. A character doesn't have to have a shitload of screen time or plot relevance to make someone dislike them.

that's me alright, hoo boy

wow you guys sure caught me

i only brought up KH so i could "pick on" tifa

this is what I was trying to say, thank you.

hahahaha yeah sure man, whatever you say. I have like 8 different ways to respond to this, but I just can't even be assed. only about 1/5th of the people in this thread listen to anything anyone else says.

Although I will admit I want Aeris in Dissidia just for the potential Aeris/Lightning.

DO WANT SO MUCH maybe they will put lightning in KH
if only

that's me alright, hoo boy

Who says I was talking about you?

Something you want to share with the class?
