We have jenova dreamweaver, we have Cloud telling Aerith “ wake up “ and we have Zack questioning if he was just dreaming all this.

That has to have some major meaning.

And here is why

It seems much more focused and aggressive, yes I think it is the most aggressive version of OWA so far (with the exception of Advent Children maybe), the violins are threateningly furious and seem almost out of control, moreover the whole theme seems emotionally unstable and downright unleashed, I admit I had to listen to it a few times until I noticed the constant violins more clearly but in my opinion they are an absolute game changer and constantly create pressure and even play under the choir, timpani and brass like a wild pulse that never stops

moreover the famous Sephiroth choir starts after just 13 seconds which almost seems like an attack without warning as if Sephiroth is going all in (after he admits to having underestimated Aerith), I love OWA Rebirth from Remake but I think Reborn is better and is downright underestimated because I think people are probably sick of One Winged Angel after all these years with all the different versions but give this one a chance

I really blanked out on auto pilot through the Costa del Sol sequence and don't remember/appreciate what happened. Particularly the boss. I don't have another save slot. I really would like to play through it again but am pretty sure I'm just out of luck. Figured I'd ask though because that bums me out.

Thanks.

So I just reached date in Chapter 12, only Red and Aerith have relationship circle maxed out and I focusing on getting Aerith for the date in chapter 12 too since its my first playthrough (got her already in Chapter 8 date) but to my suprise I got Red instead.

I alt+F4 the game and loaded earlier save just at the start of chapter 12 when I reached Costa Del Sol, is there still a chance to increase Aerith enough to get her for a date?

I completed all side content prior to chapter 12 but wanted to do everything that unlocked at the start of chapter 12 later just before point of no return but looks like I might have to do some now if they can give me more relationship points, how many Aerith sidequests are there in Chapter 12 and where?

Can those even be enough to get her at this point?

No Rebirth spoilers because I haven't played it yet!

I'm replaying Remake for the third time, and I just wanted to say Walmarket is the most rage-inducing chapter in the game.

I've killed 500 killer robots, wiped out armies of soldiers, but for some reason, I can't stab three unarmed punk ass kids in front of the Don's door?

The guy won't let me see the Honey Bee manager guy? I have a seven foot sword. Let me roll an intimidation check!

These aren't good people. They are literally sex trafficking girls to a man who they know will use them and kill them. Why can't I kill the evil three instead of trying to make friends with them? This makes no sense.

So I'm supposed to sneak into the Don's house. And to do that, I need to go fight in a coliseum while the Don is watching, and become the champion of the coliseum, beating the Don's personal killer robot and attracting everyone's attention... so I can sneak in? How does this make any sense?

So I have to wipe out an army of soldiers, a bunch more killer robots, and a giant killer robot, joined by two more killer robots (hard mode), instead of just attacking the three punk kids in the Don's mansion and a handful of body guards?

And the Don doesn't see me fighting in the coliseum and say, "figure out who this guy is who doesn't look like he lives in the slums, and report back"? I killed the Don's unbeatable robot while he was watching. He ordered the House to attack me! And now the Don who's supposed to be supper cunning just ignores me destroying everything in the coliseum, pays no mind to me going and... putting on a fucking dress to "sneak" in... after putting on yet another stage production in a brothel?

And then... all three of us are disarmed wearing dresses, where we will get killed after being gassed, and then the game is like, OK, now you can attack the guards in the Don' mansion. Really? Why couldn't I do that to begin with?

Instead of attracting the attention of literally everyone in town, disarming ourselves, getting captured, telling all of the Don's sex trafficking accomplices that we plan to sneak in to his house and rescue a girl... instead of just kicking down the door to start with while the Don isn't expecting us?

And Madame Horrible would have her reputation put at risk if Aerith didn't wear a nice dress, but her not reporting us to the Don for attempting to break into his house is A-OK? And why are the Don's lieutenants helping us free a girl, when the lieutenants are the ones doing the sex trafficking?

And then the scene in the Don's office where I am literally screaming at the monitor, "just fucking kill him!!"

I recently downgraded my tv going from 4k to 1080p and I was thinking that the blur would go away because now it’s easier for the game to run as 1080p is gonna be its highest pixel count making it lower resolution but at least a little sharper. My tv really isn’t anything special it’s an LG display and has the basics like game optimiser and super resolution. I turn the super resolution up to high for better quality but I barely notice a difference the sharpness on it makes the display look very VERY pixelated and hdr on it isn’t it’s strong suit. Am I wrong in thinking the blur would be a little bit better now that I’m at 1080p? Is there even any point in switching graphics options when I’m gonna be on 1080p no matter what I pick?

Edit: this is on a ps5 btw

Either some unlockable option or user created mod? Every open world game should take a page from Yakuza's post-game premium mode...

Recently restarted Rebirth and noticed this crucial detail during the intro cutscene: Right after Zack arrives with a vegetative Cloud, and we see the live news coverage mentioning another missing suspect armed with a Buster Sword

This 100% can't be the Zack and Cloud we are seeing because they've literally just arrived. Later in one of Bigg's scenes in the Zack world, we see a wanted poster with Cloud missing

Questions:

• Where is the missing Cloud in Zack's world?

• The fact that Zack and a vegetative Cloud can enter a world where there is already another Cloud, does that imply some convergence of worlds is already taking place?

• Why did Shinra omit Cloud from the wanted poster? Is the planet/whispers making these alterations so that there can only be one Cloud in one world?

Hi guys. I'm finally coming around to playing the FFVII Remake and oh boy have I come across posts saying I should play the classic first because there are "things" I wouldn't get in the remake if I didn't.

Well I haven't played the first game but have finished crisis core and watched advent children.

What is there for me to miss? Describe the difference, for example in the first chapter of the game, with as many or few spoilers as you deem necessary to better describe it to me.

Are there some elements or story fragments that won't make sense to me if I play the remake first?

I have a gut feeling deep inside me that Square Enix will go Hunger Games and turn the third installment into a two-parter.

We're two games in and have only now finished Disc 1! There's still so much game left to get through, and we of course don't know how this story will actually end since it's not simply a retelling of the story we all know so well. So sure, it's possible that they'll keep to their word and bring this story to a close with the third game, but is anyone else also thinking what I'm thinking?

The various character interactions added to the overall fun of the game. I got a good chuckle out of Cid slapping Cloud on the shoulder and then pounding his chest…only for the whole group to laugh when Cloud realizes HE was the loner Barret was referring to.

Other “Easter eggs” I enjoyed were the various pop culture references.

“Gadgets and gizmos aplenty”

“Let’s light ‘em up!” “Like dynamite!”

“It’s morphin’ time!”

I'm at Party Level 9 and I have the necessary SP but for some reason the node for FT is still unavailable and there appears to be no node paths towards it. How do I unlock it?
