#anyway im done with my ff7 remake replay

[peachalie]

I didn't know if my entire team dropping to 1 hp two seconds before the fight ended was scripted to put the fear of God in me or if I just got incredibly lucky

So I looked up other people's final fight gameplay and no??? It's not scripted I just think I broke the game???

I was SCREAMING when my whole teams hp dropped to 1. I fully believe that wasn't supposed to happen. Sephiroth was dropping meteor as I was pulling off a limit, we all dropped to like 1 hp at the same time (sephiroth included) and then sephiroth died after the screen flashed white. I should NOT have won bruh how did I win???

When the screen flashed white, I almost put my controller down like "its so over"

#the noises i made in the final few seconds of that fight #it was the definition of WE'RE SO OVER and WE'RE SO BACK #actual miracle that i won that fight #anyway im done with my ff7 remake replay #ff7 remake

I finished ff7. Hearing the series theme is what got to me. Im sad. I miss it 😭😭😭😭

Anyway uhhhhh, thoughts. My opinion on Aerith sure did change thats for sure. Getting to see the original version in person, she was hilarious sometimes and other times I was just like 'girl what the fuck is wrong with you'. I ended up genuinely feeling nothing for her. Sephiroth was also very unintentionally funny to me and I couldn't take him seriously. I felt like he meant nothing. Not necessarily to me like with Aerith, but like to the story. Like yeah he meant something to Cloud as an enemy, but man. The extra context you get from Crisis Core is like, actually necessary for Seph to become an actual fucking character, lol.

On the other side, I definitely have always loved Cid, but now there's a real possibility that he might best Vincent as my fave character in the entire series. That one crewmate on the airship calling him warmhearted nearly had me bursting into tears. I love him so much. He means the world to me. I want to be hugged by him please for the love of god. And Tifa is best girl.

And like, in terms of the story, maybe its just cuz Ive done so much research going over everything about the story for years and years that knowing everything beforehand lessened the experience, but like. Well... I think 8, 10, and 13 actually have better stories. Tho I think 13 is more of a personal preference. Maaaybe 8 too cuz everything about Squall makes me cry and my opinion toward Cloud was mostly 'yeah thats Cloud' the whole time, but like. The story of 8 isn't all that much, tho still slightly better than 7. I think what really helps 7 is the existence of the compilation as a whole when plenty of the other games never got sequels or novels or movies and all that. But 10, yeah thats the one babey. This has solidified that 10 is top tier.

Anyway Im gonna rewatch Advent Children probably tomorrow and then replay Dirge of Cerberus probably the day after. And then I'll just cry everyday until the Crisis Core remake comes out so I can see Zack and Genesis again.

#like idk. i think my problem is that it felt like it wasnt done at the end. like there was so much that just felt. like thr story there #wasnt complete #and thats where you need extra stuff from the rest of the compilation #like seph felt flat without the context from cc #the thing with zack is like. who the fuck is that??? until you play cc #the stuff added to DoC gives everything to vincent that he needed and didnt get #THE NOVELS BASICALLY GIVE YOU EACH CHARACTERS ACTUAL PROPER ENDING #thats the thing!!!!! you get to the end of the game and its like. okay now wheres the fucking ending???? #people lost their minds over this shit in 1997??? #me saying 8 is probably better than 7 is probably a death sentence tho lol. like if i said that on a forum in 1999 i woulda been banned #tho saying 10 is best is not nearly as much of a divisive opinion #for real for me the compilation is the best part of 7. not the base game. tho it may just be where the focus on the things i like is at #personal #long post
