god damn Gackt
Well, yeah, it was in the original. One of the team was a My Bloody Valentine fan, so this is named after their second album.

I mean, if you played the original you should know it's extremely appropriate that Cloud would "try to look cool."It was nice overall, but when Cloud does a flip off the train and swings his sword, well that was cheesy. Just jump down like a normal person instead of a tryhard edgelord next time. Square-Enix tries too hard to make characters cool, but it's just silly.
Of course, Cloud was a bit of an edgelord in the original too, but it was cooler when I was a teenager.
Hopefully there really is a demo coming, because I'm not sold on this yet.
The playground shown first isn't the same as the one later. The one later is way more run downwait, the slums are on top of the plate now? or is that a different playground that just looks the same?
Not really, they got it right the first time beginning with space (connecting to the Cosmo Canyon telescope) with Aeris' face close up andCan't hate on the intro even if I wanted too. Better than the original opening movie imo.
Ew ...To shoot or to edge, that is the question. Do I watch it or wait...
I think connecting it to the Cosmo Canyon telescope is more your idea than what's actually going on in the original opening.Not really, they got it right the first time beginning with space (connecting to the Cosmo Canyon telescope) with Aeris' face close up andThat was beautiful and cosmical. I'm not a purest but if you change things, they should make it better not worse. I want to see my favourite moments recreated from the original.ending it the same way

Not really, it's foreshadowing the story is about the universe, not just Gaia and the same music plays in the telescope scene.I think connecting it to the Cosmo Canyon telescope is more your idea than what's actually going on in the original opening.
Uhh, Most of the original team who worked on the original is on this remake. Also regarding Red XII, the whole point is that he's putting on a different face in front of everyone because they don't know he's only a pup. He talks in his sleep all the time, crying for his grandfather. That's like a big part of his character. He breaks that facade after Cosmo Canyon.Not really, it's foreshadowing the story is about the universe, not just Gaia. Bugenhagen shows that,. My guess is the developers of the remake just thought of the zoom out shot, let's make it bigger and cooler but didn't think of the point of the orginal scene. It's like giving Red XIII a cool and wise voice, he may look bad arse, but he's more like a reckless teenager. I worry they have a superficial understanding of the original.
Looks like they went too far, Red XIII is not Aslan. Whether some of the same developers worked on it or not, doesn't mean they can't miss the point.Uhh, Most of the original team who worked on the original is on this remake.

Good.I knew something was different the moment I saw Aerith. They got rid of the cat lips and they shrunk her chin.
Lol ok. He literally talks like that in the original version but yeah they went too farLooks like they went too far, Red XIII is not Aslam. Whether some of the same developers worked on it or not, doesn't mean they can't miss the point.
Red XIII was quite childish, there's a sceneLol ok. He literally talks like that in the original version but yeah they went too far

The new one is on the left.Lip looks better but the chin is too small and rounded now. Guess they had to give up to the japanese complains.
Have you played FF7 before, or was this a joke?there is a fucking poster for loveless in the opening
god damn Gackt
Oh! I thought you were thinking like "shrunk" horizontally....my badI know , it's the one where they shrunk the chin.
Mind you, I'm not really care much but I remember japanese fanbase complaining about Aerith looking ugly too long chin and shit like that.
You all are freaking out over nothing. He can have a cool voice and this will make the inscurities show off even more when they do show off, which fits the character pretty well.Red XIII was quite childish, there's a sceneHe's quite insecure even earlier on and not very cool and calm, despite how he may look at times. Giving him the most coolmaccool voice, misses the point. The whole "he pretends to be cool" is an excuse because even then the insecurities still shine through.where he sneaks in Junon in a human disguise and he clearly doesn't know what he's doing. Same with freaking out over Aeris in the chamber.
If you have the ability play in Japanese, if not watch Tim Rogers series on it. Explains it well there.

Why is it pointless? Its a reimagining of FFVII set in a new continuity. I like the contrast shown between the slums and the upper plates.All of the new bits like the parts during the day and some rando stepping on Aerith's flower feel so pointless.
As awesome as the trailer looks, I tend to always roll my eyes when games go for that "the city is so rough and raw that this person just stepped on Aeris' flower with NO regard for her" feel. Like I live in Chicago. If somebody dropped their shit on the ground and was on their hands and knees collecting it, nobody is gonna come through and drag their boots hahaAll of the new bits like the parts during the day and some rando stepping on Aerith's flower feel so pointless.
wait, the slums are on top of the plate now? or is that a different playground that just looks the same?
To me, it looks like that's supposed to be a historical shot of the sector 5 reactor firing up for the first time before the plate for that sector has been built. Like everything before it cuts to Aeris is actually in the past

Yes, Valve's approach with HL Alyx is so refreshing in comparison. Imagine if we got a big cutscene showing us the G-Man's intro or something like that shown before releasehave to say, it is a really odd trend to show beginning cinematics long before the game is released or the famous"the first 10 minutes"...
back in the days it was the best to experience this personally, nowadays the beginning is already spoiled because marketing reasons...the magic is completely gone from a new game this way
This was my interpretation of it as well, that it was showing a quick history of Shin-ra and Midgar's rise through building and expansion all the way up until the city that we all recognise.To me, it looks like that's supposed to be a historical shot of the sector 5 reactor firing up for the first time before the plate for that sector has been built.
