    Rebirth material ultimania says Cissnei has the potential to become the third heroine and her connection to Zack was a key aspect that they emphasized on, so I’m excited to see what they do in pt 3. I think what’s interesting is Cissnei’s wishful hope/dream of seeing Zack again (who doesn’t feel gone) just like his parents too that are waiting for his return. I think it would be nice if he actually got to go home to Gongaga and see everyone this time around.

      This is what we've been saying for a long time while a certain portion of the fanbase just won't hear it. A lot of people are gonna have to eat a lot of crow if Cissnei ends up being major in relation to Zack. I still believe it was Cissnei and Angeal who helped Zack on the hill and maybe part 3 will be expand on it. Zack and Cissnei as the main characters in part 3 is still a pipe dream but at least there's a sliver of hope again.

      I wouldn't be against Cissnei being a new party member in part 3. I always felt that if they ever did remake the game that it would be cool if they made Cissnei a playable party member after Aerith dies since SE did seem to like have 3 females for party members from VI to XIII.

    If you use Assess materia on Dyne in the fight, it tells you he will fuse with scrap metal after taking enough damage. People just dont read. So its not as if it was completely random. We're playing a game set in a fantasy story with magical spirit juice made of memories but for some reason magnetism is totally "unrealistic". I may be a 32 yr old guy but I still balled my eyes out during the whole sequence. Definitely one of my top favorite moments in the whole game.

    • @3EyedBro-tk2yt
      @3EyedBro-tk2yt 3 дня назад +2

      Don’t think that was issue. Think folks were more frustrated about the attacks being unblockable, while stunning you, while doing tremendous damage, while being more frequent than you can generate ATB.
      And Assess Materia is vague af and borderline useless outside of identifying elemental weakness. “After a certain amount of damage”….he does this fusing as soon as phase 3 starts, making the information given from the Materia completely useless because it’s blatantly obvious when he does it.
      Just enjoy the game and stop trying combat people who didn’t enjoy it or have criticism about it. Did their bad experience somehow spoil your experience? Or do you need things that you enjoy to be validated by others like some weirdo?

    I think Roche could have really been fleshed out more. They did him really well actually, but I hope they give us his full backstory about how he become a soldier and why he became a soldier. I think the perfect way to connect Roche to Cloud would be for Cloud to be able to possibly even save Roche and help Roche remember his past. I think an interesting way they could do is make Roche be that Shinra grunt that was washed away during the Nibelheim incident. That would really connect Roche even more to Cloud, Zack, and Sephiroth. Perhaps Roche tells the story of what happened afterwards and his desperate story of survival and understand how it left a permanent psychological mark which may have led to him qualifying to become a Soldier.

    Just learned from the ultimania that the dog the timeline where zack survive is 7 stars. Including all timeline we know it is 3 stars to 7 stars. So, there is 2 stars ( timeline) we don't know yet.
    My guess is the 2nd stars is one where Cloud successfuly block Sephi, thus saving Aerith. 1st stars will be og ff7. That or 1st stars is the one where Zack end up in the finale. Og will be a no star timeline as it is the prime timeline.

    Rebirth is my favorite game this year, but I did have some issues. I agree that the acting and the emotions in the Dyne fight are very well done. But even with all that, the original’s direction left a lasting impact on me that Rebirth’s did not come close to. I know suicide is almost a taboo topic these days, but the despair and loss that Dyne feels in the original far surpasses what Rebirth was able to portray. At least for me.

    • @CuriousCorduroy
      @CuriousCorduroy  3 дня назад

      The original does hit harder for most, but I do appreciate Dyne coming to his senses briefly to protect Barret in Rebirth. He sacrificed himself in a different way I suppose.

    • @snoopykiller1976
      @snoopykiller1976 2 дня назад

      ⁠​⁠@@CuriousCorduroyBut that is also something that just felt off to me. Dyne did come to his senses in the original. But unlike Rebirth, he saw that he would be the biggest danger to Marlene due to his broken psyche and crippling murder boner. His moment of clarity led him to kill himself to protect Marlene, not Barrett. Makes more sense to me at least that he would protect Marlene from himself than Barrett from Shinra troops. Which by the way, their presence there breaks the emotional impact of the scene. I understand if the scene has emotional impact on people. It just did not resonate with me that way. As controversial as the ending has been with the fan base, this was the scene I was most let down by. But I still love the game as a whole.

    • @kalanbell1057
      @kalanbell1057 2 дня назад

      For me I think the part that gets overlooked is that yea Dyne protects Barrett but he still doesn’t forgive him and his last words are to carry the weight of Dyne and Corel. This comes full circle in the latter half of the game but also ties into Advent Children and Barrett’s On the Way to a Smile chapter. That weight (along with Avalanche’s activities and the journey through the game) is still sitting heavy on Barrett

    I do think they will release the series as one whole game. With everything rebalanced and updated according to part 3. It’s a huge opportunity for money. Think about it like artists nowadays releasing deluxe albums.
    Or maybe there is a mode that streamlines the game into the original. That’s more wishful thinking but I do think they’ll release the trilogy as a whole

      Time clearly isn’t moving in that space. And the way I’ve looked at it is each time Sephiroth takes Cloud there he is testing his strength. Cloud still is denying what is being shown to him but he was able along with Zack and the party to beat Bizarro Sephiroth. While Cloud lost in Remake, Aerith’s help pushed the fight to something of a stalemate which is why Sephiroth left. That and I think he’s not done trying to push Cloud to his strongest.

    Dyne scene Good but
    It hidding some problem
    especially Dyne himself
    For me Dyne lean a bit too much to madness
    Player DO noting have time to invest Empathy in him enough
    You need to make player invest empathy in charecter before pay out scene
    Dyne charecter madness come close to "child behave" more than " Hero to evil "
    But it not a BAD scene anything ONLY we need to feels respect "madness of Dyne " (*just like joker from Dark knight batman people around the world who watched it respect madness of joker* ) to
    Push this scene to the frame of honor
    Just good great scene but missing some part to sit on 9-10/10 scene
