I don't think it's a case of the game being pre-production going to full production. We have to remember that sometimes Japanese to English translations are a bit weird, especially when it comes to the meaning of specific words. My theory is that Nomura is talking about the stage towards the...

To be honest, I don't want a sequel. One, because SE hasn't done particularly well lately, so I have concerns as to whether a sequel would do the original justice. And second, I really didn't like the direction the compilation took to the story. Taking the compilation as comparison, I don't...

Thanks Splintered, that's what I was looking for. When I was playing the game I thought they were touch xenophobia like they did in X, but it doesn't quite get there. Initially yes, but then I suddenly got curious if it was my fault that I didn't get the point of the story or if the story was...

Ok, I was over-simplifying things. I meant after all "personal struggles" had been resolved, it was pretty straight-forward. Kill Barthandelus because he's evil kind of thing. I'm just curious if there was a more compelling story behind it. You know, like when you watch a movie for the second...

On the technical side, yes XIII is better graphics-wise. But between a wonderfully lifeless corridor, or a less good looking expansive world, with towns and ... gasp!... NPCs to talk to, I'd take the second any time.

For those who actually bothered with the plot in XIII I have a question: is there any depth and logic to it? Because the only thing I got out of it was that 'these are the bad guys, kill them'. I know FF usually has lots of hidden meanings and stuff, but I just didn't care to go deeper when I...

I can understand why some people might not like XII, but thinking XII was bad and XIII was better? Holy Crap! XII was better than XIII in every way imaginable. Every way imaginable!

That's a very logical take, but then in the OG, Cloud was in a horrible state, left alone in the train station and then when Tifa finds him, he all of a sudden starts talking normally. That bit still makes no sense to me. That's why I said the only thing I can think of is Tifa's presence...

For what I remember from the OG, Cloud's fake persona was a mixture of other people's memories, but not personality. There's nothing in the game that suggests his personality was linked to Zack or Tifa. That always seemed odd to me. The way I would explain it is that when he saw Tifa, Jenova...

I actually disagree with this part. Here's what Aeris said in the date scene: As you see in the bolded parts, there's no indication Aeris sees Zack's personality in Cloud, just the way he acts reminds her of him. Also Tifa did say he was acting strange, but then it doesn't make sense she would...

Yep, it kinda fit the occasion well, but then every time you return to Junon you have to listen to that over and over. It's almost as bad as the Golden Saucer theme.

Thanks, I'll take a look

Not trying to argue, I'm just curious, why would you consider Maiden to not be canon?

Not sure how to embed an youtube video, but at the 6:35 mark, when Cloud is in the temple of the ancients and tries to access a room he says "Sealed...? That sound brings back memories". Do you guys know what that means? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3isYw2WnJyU&feature=related

Oh yeah, well remember Raz, the music in the game is wonderful too. Sometimes I go to youtube just to listen to the themes of Tifa and Aeris on the piano. So beautiful!
