So, I played Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth Demo yesterday...
...and here are some scattered thoughts about it.
There might be some spoilers for the compilation of Final Fantasy VII. Read only at your own risk.
It's funny how attached I am to this game series these days. I used to think that FFVII didn't need a remake... and well, maybe it didn't. But it's still damn cool and made me fall in love with the game all over again.
And now, when I have been consuming Diabolik Lovers in between Remake and Rebirth, the game has gotten an extra flavor through voice acting. I can't help but hear Ruki when Cloud speaks, and the same goes with Carla and Sephiroth. Oh boy, my ears are in love too. 馃き Ruki/Cloud, not Carla/Sephiroth, but the latter is still cool.
But about that demo... It was so amazing! I enjoyed playing it, and now, I'm eager to get the full game. I also watched Tuesday's State of Play, and it made me think that I will spend months with this game. I rushed through the Remake in one week but I can't imagine beating Rebirth that fast. It seems there is much more to do in this game, and it's two discs too. Gosh, I can't wait!
Fighting together with Sephiroth was amazing! I know we get a brief view of that in the original too, but in this demo, we get to spend more time with him, and I got really sucked into the story and fighting. You can skip this part of the full game by playing the demo, but I want to replay it then.
Playing the demo made me think how much I wish to meet all the characters again. I want to see more of Rude, of course. Maybe we'll get the scene where he admits to Reno that he likes Tifa. That would be so perfect. 馃ス馃挄
Then there are Vincent and Yuffie, too. Gosh, I love them both so much, and I totally want to see how I can combine their attacks with that synergy system. What cool things can they do with a gun and a shuriken in fights?
Also, everything looks so beautiful! I want to visit all the places already! And I loved the Costa del Sol outfits for Tifa and Aerith they showed in the trailer. I hope Yuffie has a nice outfit for the beach visit too. If they showed it, I missed it. 馃
Of course, I also have some worries. They beat fate in Remake, so there will probably be changes in the storyline, and the chances are that I don't like them all. I really wonder about what is going on with Zack and how that affects Cloud's story. While it could be nice if Zack and Aerith could have each other this time, Cloud mixing his memories with Zack's is such a huge plot point that I'm afraid it could be ruined if Zack isn't dead. But... it can also be well-written, so I guess I simply need to wait and see how things will turn out.
I have several reasons to wish it was already the end of February, and Rebirth is surely one of the biggest ones. The other reasons are more personal and not so nice, but let's not get into that. This spring will be so much fun together with the characters I love. 馃グ

FMK with the Turks :)
Now that's a question. esp since there's 5 to 6 primordial Turks in the saga, if i count Vincent in it as well.
but so if we think about it...
Fuck: Reno, i mean, come on. It's Reno.
Marry: Vincent and Cissnei <3
Kill: Rude, sorry pal :( he'd be good at Marry i feel bc i do love him a lot, but "Marry" is the only option i'm confident about here.
I'm really undecided on Tseng and Elena though 馃 Like i could get on with either of them which would push the other one in the Kill option, so it's kinda sad.
I think i'd pick Tseng in F because of the Suwabe element, so pushing Elena on kill, but know that it was close between them.
But yeah Marry on Vincent and Cissnei without a single moment of doubt at least.
馃 thank you soldier.

Did you just... Project Kaiba onto your 8th grade crush in that dream??? Ngl this feels like the start of a puppyshipping fic Anyways hope you still managed to get some decent sleep despite the confusion 馃挋
AGGSDKSHGSSHHS PROBABLY???? I partially also blame the fact that I鈥檝e been thirsting over Rufus Shinra since they revealed him in the final trailer for FFVIIR and he鈥檚 essentially the Seto Kaiba of FFVII. (OMFG Tseng is Isono, isn鈥檛 he?! And Reno and Rude and maybe Elena too? are Mokuba. Ahshfkdhsgdkjj.)
XD But I certainly do have Seto Kaiba on the brain (when do I not HAHA), as my bestie and I are currently doing an extremely self-indulgent YGO/FFVII + a dash of KH crossover RP where, yep, they鈥檙e both in it.
馃 But you鈥檙e right, it does sound like the start of a KaiJou fic, pffffffftttt. XD I鈥檇 write it, if I had any motivation or confidence to write anything outside of RP right now.
But yes, I did get some extra sleep, thank you!! :3 馃挋
