  1. Correct, that's what I said, which is not what you said I said. Especially when I elaborated to you what I meant by not being "critical" later. But I think we should just drop it.
  2. Sure, you'll get more context. That's why I said you'll better understanding her background and motivations, but it still not critical. If we were going by this reasoning, Crisis Core is *vastly* more critical than the Yuffie DLC and I don't think that's critical to play either. That's not what I said and I also elaborated on what I meant by it not being critical. Not sure where things are getting lost.
  3. Sure, there's references to stuff. But it's all window dressing. I find it hard to believe that playing the Yuffie DLC will make a difference in understanding Rebirth. If someone want's the read a two sentence summary in advance I'm not going to stop them! Nevertheless, I maintain that it is not critical to play the DLC before you play Rebirth. You'll be able to follow Rebirth just fine. Or at least as well as without (The FF7 story isn't exactly simple so I can see people have trouble regardless )
  4. I suppose, but this is a rebirth thread and I think the only people ITT who hadn't played FFVIIR but are interested in rebirth have now finished it! I've added additional spoilers out an abundance of caution though. If you agree it can be easily summed up, that's precisely my point. There are only little tidbits that are so easy to briefly mention. It's just not critical to play the DLC to understand what's going to happen in Rebirth.
  5. You mean the bit with I'm not sure that really is required viewing since they already showed you something weird was happening with I'm not sure I remember which bosses you're talking about and I never played the Vincent game. But the stuff with Nero doesn't really cover anything meaningful other than the fact that Nero But that can be summed up real quick if needed.
  6. I enjoyed it, but I just don't see what they presented as being critical to the rest of the story. Mostly it will give you some additional background on Yuffie and what's motivating her.
  7. No, I mean what's the flame Sony about? I just checked the comments and I guess I see some making snarky comments that Sony should have used this themselves? Is that it? Because that's a pretty stupid flame. There are a billion different services and software stacks that have to be used to make these games (and other stuff Sony does) and Sony doesn't design the security for all of them. We desperately need more services to adopt passkey already, and Sony is taking the steps to adopt it earlier than most in the service they actually control. Or if the flame was about passkey being a bad idea, then that's also a stupid flame
  8. The Yuffie DLC isn't part of the OG. You don't need to play it before starting Rebirth. If you feel like going back after playing Rebirth because you want more, that would probably be fine.
  9. It’s great and better than the original. The original was limited IMO because all interactions are just over the radio or through glass. Infinite has someone always interacting with you and it’s all the better because of it. It ties to two games together in a fun way too if you’re into weird stories
  10. To me it usually feels like 5 steps forward and 1 step back given how crazy substantial the updates have been both in new content and bugs fixed. I'll gladly take it.
  11. Every developer wishes this This is probably one of the most difficult of games to add features to without causing bugs. I can’t imagine how insane the web is.
  12. I’ve been fully on board this train since the release of the first which had way more haters. I think I’ll be good.
  13. It's a flashback. Cloud (and Tifa) are retelling events to the rest of the party so that they'll better understand Sephiroth. (This retelling also happens in the OG). They're basically going to tell you why Sephiroth went from hero to villain.
  14. No problem! I can definitely understand how it would be confusing if you didn't play the OG and know it reasonably well. Most of the game is fine in not requiring you know it, but the end is much harder to follow if you hadn't. It basically requires you to go "wait, that's not right!" and "wait they're seeing the future of the OG!" etc. If you liked this one, I suspect you'll like Rebirth. I mean, I haven't played it (other than the demo), but everything looks strictly better in Rebirth with a big open world.
  15. I'm not worried about it capturing more people than the crazies, I'm worried about it giving the crazies more reason to do something insane. I sure do hope you're right about it not affecting the election!
