Spread the Love - Review Jam
When can we start submitting reviews for the second week? I'm sitting on one that I really, REALLY want to get out because it's important to those who want to check out a game that's over a gigabyte in size yet has some pretty glaring flaws (the biggest of which is that its puzzles are in no way intuitive; the second being a possible breach of ToS) that prevent it from being approachable. The game dev could also use this information, but even if they do nothing about it, the consumer deserves to know.

I always though cloud killed Aeeith...
He would've had Square decided the game wasn't interesting or dramatic enough. I think it could've helped.
Unless you're talking about this.

In another 150 years they're going to microwave all the copies of FF7 because it's a symbol of hate against corporations.
As long as they keep their hands off my FF9 and its underlying message of love and peace, they can take the rest of the series straight to hell.
(Aside from 5, because that's my second fav of all time)

Of course, the reason they'll think this is that it'll have been ingrained into their heads by the corporations that control all of human civilization. But that's where our beliefs come from too - they were ingrained into us by the billions of individuals that refuse to give up control of their own lives.
And commercials telling us what to buy/think/do with our free time.

You don't see nazi statues standing around in Germany cause they're "art".
In fact, Germany is making such a stand to erase their history that anyone caught throwing up the Nazi salute even in jest gets jail time/a massive fine.

Man, it's hard to remember who said/did what when half the cast is misremembering due to shit/wasn't there from the get-go.
Cloud's not Cloud, Sephiroth is asleep (meaning every appearance of Sephiroth until the very end when he wakes up is just Jenova*), Tifa got impaled with the Masamune and survived/was reborn (because I don't remember). The whole thing pisses me off just thinking about it. Couldn't they make it easier to understand?
*Why does Jenova want Aeris dead? Because she's a Cetra? Does it even matter?
Which part? The combat? Surely not breeding Chocobos for the Knights of the Round. I got up to level 99 on every party member, unlocked all Limit breaks, got over 100,000,000 gil through mastering and selling All materias (5-7 at a time) and earned all the "best" Materia/weapons, and what do I have to show for it? 111 hours on Steam and no positive memories.
This game is a tall stack of questions with a blocky sword rested against it.

I love the way that statue bends.
I just played the game like super recently (I went back and got the Great Gospel achievement January 31st, 2016) and clearly nothing retained. That's how you can tell a story/game is engaging.

Final Fantasy 7
Oh my God you're absolutely right. I still think FF7 is an aged pile of garbage.

So, I just watched this, and there are people in the comments blaming the victim for her murder.
It's easy to say when they weren't there. People just want to one-up each other in their own comfort and the superiority it affords them.

So Aeris is only useful but in super specific scenarios like not the one that has to do with her actually dying and the White Materia bouncing off the fountains to her theme (her summoning Holy and Sephiroth trying to undo it), more in a Deus Ex Machina sort of way (Sephiroth prevents Holy but Aeris pulls an elementary playground godmode "gotcha" with planetary life force power infinity plus one)? Got it. And where was Holy in all of this? Meteor was in the sky, but nowhere on Gaia was there any evidence that Holy was doing diddly squat.
It really just sounded better when Holy had an adverse reaction to Meteor as it's displayed in the FMV.
That's some hippy dippy religion garbage that's not relevant to her as a character according to a previous discussion.
And to clarify, if she has the power to draw the Lifestream out and save the planet from Meteor, what would've stopped her from summoning Holy after her death? Why is Holy so insignificant if they spent so much time building it up and showing that Aeris was the only one who was capable of wielding its power as evidence by it falling off of her ribbon during her death. Why are we making excuses for a convenient twist?
I don't think anyone's ever made this much hoopla out of defending Time Kompression in Final Fantasy 8 on the back of Guardian Forces already undoing all of one's perspective universe via stealing memories. I'm thinking we all just went into it thinking "they've got an idea", then when it got stretched too thin we accepted that the heads at the drawing board threw up their hands, chanted "fuck it" and tossed the universe getting spun inside out because the player won't ever see that coming. They'll be left thinking "all hope is lost", then LOL happy ending.

she lives on and has agency after death, as do all humans

... What does Aerith being character of faith have to do with anything?

author=CAVE_DOG_IS_BACKauthor=Corfaisusholy doesn't help meteor. it just, kind of sucks. the line "holy is having the opposite effect" is misleading. sephiroth was just holding it at bay for so long that it was way too late for it to actually do anything. I will not address the rest of your points as they are criminally bad.
The biggest question is why did she have to die? And I don't mean this in a mopey way, just for complete transparency. Spoiler alert for the end of Final Fantasy 7, but even with Holy coming in to save the world from Meteor, it actually gave Meteor strength and it wasn't until the Lifestream decided to take a piss all over the world that there was any hope of the world one day being semi-inhabitable again, hence why at the end of the game when it's like "100 years later", the place is still a mess but there's grass sprouting up around the ruins of Midgar so that's an improvement.
It's like all they wanted was for a big shocking maybe-death like in the prequel (which I've already stated my problems with), but with other people meeting their end by "Sephiroth's" Masamune (the president of Shin-Ra* was honestly more disturbing because "he" left it stuck in his back), they didn't need Aerithhhhhhhhhhhhhh *steam valve broke* to bite it, too.
*It's funny, because I went to Google the president of Shinra to make sure it was the same character I was thinking about and found this. Internet, you funny.
The line "Holy is having the opposite effect" is all we have to go off of. If there's an error here, it's with the translation team. I'm just debating the value of what's being presented here, and I'll swear til the cows come home that FF7's legacy was its jump to 3D and not its story, putting it on par with Super Mario 64 and its controls.
Also Sephiroth was what? ????

I'm male and I like girls butI like penises and have a little sexual attraction to them
When I was smaller I didn't like them but now I do. I think I'm turning bi...Sometimes I get red when I'm with some male friends and with some females too :/
Anyways, I think I am a little bi and I don't give a shit of what my family think.Last year, I had the opportunity of being with a guy but I didn't tried and we end being friends.
I used to be the same way for the longest time. Society conditions men to sort of reject the thought or downplay it- I wold constantly say I was "only sexually attracted to men, not romantically attracted, and only certain specific men, etc, etc.
Eventually with the help of friends I was able to come out as bisexual. Regardless of what my parents think about it (which is hard to gauge sometimes tbh) it feels good to just admit to yourself and enjoy your sexuality.
All of those previous excuses have been thrown off of my back now, and I can just be myself. It's good stuff.
EMBRACE IT
Congratulations on your freedom. I trust you'll start collecting and framing Fratley art to go along with your Freya stuff now?
The existential dread feeling of thinking nothing you do could ever matter and you're not important and you will be forgotten
My problem is that I fear that I matter but for all the wrong reasons, like some guy on America's Most Wanted.
