I didn't read any of this before hand, but I guess now I know so I will give my 1 cent. We already knew the main character was a lesbian so I didn't really care about that. The trans crap is a bit weirder to me though. Why does this have to be in a video game? Does it really add anything important to the story? Also would people really care about something like that during a zombie apocalypse? Seems like it would be the last thing to worry about.
I know this sounds a bit harsh to say, but wouldn't they realistically be more worried about the survival of the human race? Realistically every female would be almost required to have children. Or you know... we would go extinct and all...
@briarpack: Spoilers - I know what you mean with the Zack stuff. In a way I'm dreading to see what they change, but I'm hopeful they will be respectful of the old fans. The thought of them going into alternate timeline shit is almost depressing. But, I'm trying to stay positive about it all. I think I would be okay with multiple endings if they went that route, as long as one of the endings was very similar to the original. I'm almost positive they are going to have dialog options that let you change the course of Aerith's death. Just a gut feeling. It's like everything Cloud had a vision of they were trying to say can now be altered.
@jamesparkhurst: The PC version is a sure thing that's not something you have to even worry about. But it won't be released until next year due to the year long deal Sony made with SE.
Oh hey look an old thread about SM64. I sure as hell hope those rumors about it coming to Switch are true! Just wondering how much Nintendo will update it.
@vikingrk: I'm with you on the camera being bad. I think it was probably the most frustrating part of the game. When locking on to something it didn't give you a normal and acceptable view of it, it was always slightly off. I also wanted to zoom out way more than what they offered. The camera options gives you between 1 - 3 and I really wanted to bump it up to 10. I'm hoping once this game finally comes to PC they patched a lot of things. If not then I'm sure someone will mod the game to allow the camera to be zoomed out more.
No idea why but I can't get this song out of my head! It sounds like something from a Phantasy Star game, or maybe a little of FFXIII music? Either way, it's making me have feelings...
Masashi Hamauzu is the composer, so that explains the FFXIII similarities.
I just beat the game and right at the end of the credits when I could save I hit 30 hours exact. Overall I enjoyed it a lot. The Slums sections were probably my least favorite, although I did enjoy the chapter with Aerith in Sector 5 a lot. Maybe because I really enjoyed the music of Sector 5 Slums. The voice acting was all very enjoyable to me and made me much more interested in the characters. The level design was either a hit or miss though. Some parts looked great and felt good to traverse, while others looked awful and took forever just to get from point A to B. I don't get what was the point of all the squeezing through small spaces, it didn't even seem like it was for loading purposes... The combat was the most fun I've had in a FF game in a long time.
So I'm still trying to process the crazy ending. I didn't hate it, mostly thought it was okay. Like everybody else I'm wondering where they will go from here. It seems SE really wanted to make it clear that nothing will be the same. I'm wondering if the second game will start at Kalm or what now.
