So why is Crisis Core so damn funny?
- Thread starter Blackbird
- Start date
i mean even the original FF7 loved its slapstick humor and was quite strange
Crisis Core is a bonafide comedy. It's a damn shame the musical score didn't get the memo.
Real talk. I do think Crisis Core is a bit more laughable than Strangers of Paradise. Jack's game has devs that, I swear, feel like they're kind of in on the joke; Garland and his team basically spending most of the game like they're playing a DnD campaign that they REALLY don't like and are just trying to cutscene skip as quickly as possible to the final boss. Plus it has a GOAT AF ending.
Crisis Core is like the writers came up with some moving and emotional script, ran it through Google Translate 5 different times, and the animation team got the wrong Game Design Document and thought they were making some kind of comical Looney Tunes game. Crisis Core seems like the perfect monument to Game Development department miscommunication.

Crisis Core is the game that canonized the fact that Sephiroth uses an entire bottle of shampoo and conditioner when he showers. The game is ridiculous and 100% owns it.
Oh man that 2nd clip killed me, pls bring back Genesis, poor Zack is being tortured with with anime poem dialogue .
XIII trilogy dove head-first into the camp-style of The 3rd Birthday and the universe was made lesser for it
I mean, he would have to right? Unless Mako juice keeps you from sweating and producing skin oil, there's just no way he wouldn't need as much shampoo as possible to keep all that hair not disgusting looking! Even then, looking at his Remake model, it still doesn't work!
Wouldn't call Zack a dude bro, but everything else in that tweet checks out.
His friend Kunsel is 3rd class and is okay! But he always wears a helmet so maybe he isn't okay lol
It's funny as hell because everything in those clips is played completely straight in this melodramatic ass game. Delivered with all the animation polish you can get feasibly get in a psp game.
I've COMPLETELY misread what kind of game this is. Wow. I mean take my money please, this tonal whiplash from all other FF7 content is fucking hilarious as fuck and I'm here for it.
"Infinite in mystery is the gift of the Goddess
We seek it thus, and take to the sky
Ripples form on the water's surface
The wandering soul knows no rest."
This game owns
-Not feeling Zack's new VA, but I guess I'm really used to the OG PSP one-

Saw people in the other thread saying the new Zack voice is horrific. Then I listened to the original one and started laughing.
So yea just to be clear. This is not intentional comedy. It's absolutely hilarious because of how bad it is. It's the troll 2 of FFVII's really bad EU.
