Bacon Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Despite the hatred I have had towards this game, I don't want to ruin anything for the people who want to enjoy it. I don't even want to put this in the main thread. From reddit: Spoiler OK this isn't even a fucking remake at this point. It is almost like spoiling a new FF game. Almost. Spoiler Final Warning. Spoiler Spoiler: the events of VII and AC have already happened in another timeline Spoiler: the ghost things are Whispers of Fate that try to keep the characters in line with the original game Spoiler: Biggs and Wedge live. Jessie unsure. Spoiler: Sephiroth kills Barret, but the whisperers revert time Spoiler: after the highway chase Cloud and co. fight the Whispers of Fate and beat them, making it so they're no longer bound by the original FFVII's storyline. During the battle the party is shown the clip of an old Nanaki with his cubs running towards a destroyed Midgar, Red XIII guesses it's a vision of the future that awaits them if they fail Spoiler: Sephiroth shows up after beating them. Fight is basically AC-tier of anime bullshit with Aeris and Today joining in. Sephiroth gets a black wing mid-fight because of course he fucking does Spoiler: Sephiroth travels back in time to stop himself. After beating Sephiroth, Cloud and the gang must stop Sephiroth, who despite helping them stop Sephiroth was still evil (because he's Sephiroth) Spoiler: while this happens we flashback to Zack surviving his last stand in an alternate timeline Spoiler: after beating Sephiroth he teleports Cloud to the "edge of creation" and asks for his help in "defying destiny... together". He refuses and fight similar to their final omnislash duel ensues Spoiler: the party escapes Midgar. We continue Zack's scene with him walking to Midgar with a comatose Cloud holding on to him. Remake Aeris and alternative Zack sense each other 3 hours ago, Kal-El814 said: Seriously, anyone who's remotely invested in this game and doesn't like spoilers should stay far fucking away from this thread. This thread is maybe kinda a mess. Just, if you really don't want to be spoiled, leave the tread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crispy4000 Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 “OK this isn't even a fucking remake at this point. It is almost like spoiling a new FF game. Almost.” Good enough for me to stop reading.

number305 Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Spoiler Yeah from what you posted it does not sound like a remake... sounds like a time loop or another dimension where the same events/similar events are taking place. But the original game/story still exists as is. Interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bacon Posted April 3, 2020 Author Share Posted April 3, 2020 Yeah, I am not even mad about the "episodic" shit cuz Spoiler it literally isn't now. But I can't even say I'll play this eventually now.

Spawn_of_Apathy Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Seems like the kind of thing that would make it feel new for old fans, but could lose new comers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bacon Posted April 3, 2020 Author Share Posted April 3, 2020 @Kal-El814 It doesn't. I just didn't black out that part until after he quoted me because I didn't know if I should spoiler mark that part or not. I didn't but then I felt like it should be blocked so I edited it, but he quoted me too fast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kal-El814 Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Okay, all. Apologies to everyone I edited in here. Probably cut too close to the bone with my edits but... better safe than sorry. I read all the spoilers so if something slips through @ me and I will edit as quickly as work allows. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah the edits are fine. I don't blame you. There is nothing wrong with being hasty in this case.

Dodger Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Spoiler If all that is true they should have called this a Re-imaging rather than a Remake.
