      IIRC, Cid said something similar after he got to space.
      "I always thought this planet was so huge. But lookin' at it from space, I realized it's so small. We're just floatin' in the dark. ......kinda makes you feel powerless. That's why I say this planet's still a kid. A little kid sick and trembling in the middle of this huge universe. Someone's gotta protect it. Ya follow me? That someone is us."

      Idk if ho is really accurate since he thot patrols the shit out of Jessie by shooting down every one of her advances and is really reserved around Aerith with the extent of their relationship being witty banter and a close sense of friendship. Only person he openly flirts with is Tifa.

    My wife and I were watching this together. For years she never truly understood why I love the original FF7 so much. And I could never find the right words the articulate that love. But 1:15 into this review I started to tear up and I think she finally understood what the game offered me when I was young and going through tough times. And for that, I can never thank you both enough. Now because of you both she wants to play it and see the game through her eyes. Please keep up the amazing work!

      @@TerryAVanguard Yeah no. People still read Shakespeare because mass culture didn't exist back in 1500s. There was only one defining status quo of cultural style at a certain time and Baroque in 1600s was the last of them that united Europe. After the French Revolution, Industrialization and mass producement of media products, our culture has become diverse and shattered.
      To give you an example on how "empty" 90% of people in Europe were, the average Brit in 1500s knew 300 words... You don't think about much of anything with those words, not your economical status, not political ideaologies or your potential as a human being. The cultural consensus was defined by the rich and literate 20% who were very conformist against one another. This massive change to today's 99% literacy in the West has happened so fast through education and industrialization, we don't even realize how "special" art was before the 1800s and how it defined entire socioeconomic systems, monarchies and historical events.
      That's why people will hear of Shakespeare in 2200s alongside the future pioneers in IT and coding and their text books will have a mention of gaming as a subculture with Minecraft being mentioned. Sadly, that is the truth. On the other hand, you can be happy to know that you lived at the same time as FF7 existed in humanity's cultural memory.

      My first reaction to when Cloud was fighting Jenova/Sephiroth’s control was like, “wtf? Oh shit. NO NO NO NO NO!” Then Sephiroth kills Aerith, and I’m stunned silent. It hits me when I see polygon Tifa runs away crying, and I’m still in stunned when she’s laid to rest.
      But it wrecked me even more when Tifa stayed with Cloud, and repaired his psyche in the Lifestream.

It wasn't that she was some silly Waifu, Aerith clearly symbolizes hope and innocence. Her death clearly symbolizes the death of those things, and for many of us it represented the deaths of our childhood.

    I still believe that "REMAKE" means that as a quite literal subtitile. You are remaking the story

    I was legit sure when taking the stairs, that after floor five/ten the game would just cut out to a quick montage and beam me up to the 59th floor.
