Anti-R - August 20, 2006 10:23 AM (GMT)
I just got the game, but am not playing it yet. ^^;; *am squeeing at the Aerith blurb*
Any thoughts for those who are now playing it?
EDIT: Adding the spoilers... XD

well i am having a fun time playing it, of course i suck when it comes to playing shooters like DoC but eh till i am doing fine in it. Um very addicting and the story i think is very interesting and it makes you want to keep going to find out more. Gah Lucrecia reminds me of Aerith guessing cause how they look. That was a random thing to say. Anyways the game is a good game. The english cast is fantastic IMO, expecially Reeve!!! EEEEEk! So i like that they did a good casting and it feels just fine when they talk, anyways the game is entertaining and very cool. IMO.
Um are those even decent thoughts? O_O XD
Sorry if my thoughts didn't make sense, i am random at times that i have no clue what i am trying to even say. =p
Still fun to play!!

LOL. Thanks, might. XD
Here's our conversation...
Me: Gawd, it takes eons to form a save file. Maybe it hanged. We should reset it.
Brother: Wait for it. You might destroy your memory card.
*after three minutes, game starts*
Brother: See?
DoC opening
Me: Wow, it's actually better than YouTube
Brother: Yuffie has a nice butt.
Me: -_-
Brother: what?
Me: Poor Rufus. His only appearance in the game, and they only show his feet.
Brother: Well, he had screentime in AC. Seems fair.
*controls Vincent*
Me: It's so... blue.
Brother: It's ok.
Me: customizing his gun is pretty neat.
Brother: true.
Both of us LOL when Reeve first showed up.
Anyways, am on the second chapter on the way to Edge.
Controls are alright.
I have expected to not like the game. It's a surprise that it didn't.
Now will continue until I see Yuffie. XD
might - August 21, 2006 05:20 AM (GMT)
Anti-R your conversation was hilarious.
Yeah at first when it was reading for the memory card i had a convo with my younger brother
*Standing staring at the screen*
Me: dang what the heck? Seesh i hope the game won't be slow.
Brother: It alwasy happens when it makes a new file.
*we stare at the screen*
Brother: Well it never took that long.
*finally it started*
Me: Well gee finally! I think i aged already.
Brother: Wow your hilarious *Sarcasm*
The controls are fine, but it takes me a while to aim, cause i suck. XD
I like the game i enjoy it very much, still upset that you can't jump around more freely like in Devil May Cry but hey since it was an inserted thing they couldn't really make him do that. But gah that would have been a better thing. Oh well still very fun. ^^
Anti-R - August 22, 2006 11:25 AM (GMT)
I reached Nibelheim! Whopee! Weird trip to memory lane, and I could almost *hear* Vincent thinking that the mansion was a little different the last time he was there. It was a nice touch the room with the coffins was there. The secret lab/library. The lobby. XD
*Sees Vincent looking like he wanted to hug hologram!Lucrecia scene. My thoughts.*
1. Waah. Poor slob. T.T
2. SE is evil.
3. Lucrecia's pink disk of Omega info was very convinient. What the..? o.0;
I was disappointed with Azul. He didn't have much going on with him. Just the boss Vincent has to shoot. Here's for hoping the other Tsviets would be better...
Still hate Shelke. But I'm happy to realize that Shalua rocks.
might - August 22, 2006 07:22 PM (GMT)
Yay i passed that, good old memory lane, well no not really or is it? I mean it was neat going back. Wait i have no idea what i wanna say.
Omg poor Vincent during that scene with the holorgam, i was like Poor Baby!
SE is evil but i guess that is what makes fan love alot of their work. =P
Yay Azul did feel like an inserted boss to me, actuall all of the Tsviets...(gah i can't spell it i am just tyring to sound it out XD) the bad dudes all of them really don't seem to have a story IMO
Shelke is alright, Shalua eh, don't like her outfit i guess. Her outfit makes me not accept the fact she is a scientist! COme on! Sorry i always need to pick at outfits that just seem nasty in my eyes. =P
Anti-R - August 23, 2006 03:58 AM (GMT)
Sigh. I felt the Organization in KH2 has more substance than these guys. Tsviets do it because Wiess says so... >.> Wonder if they'd jump off a bridge because he'd asked them politely.
Rosso looks interesting, I love her weapon. Except she's a sociopath who wants to kill people.
Nero and Weiss is hot, despite some little problems in that pairing...
might - August 23, 2006 04:52 AM (GMT)
yeah i think they would have easily jumped off a cliff if Weiss told them too. XD
rosso was alright except her outfit!! I am sorry but i am the type of person who hates outfits that make you want to gah! I mean what the heck is that a carpet on her!! Okay sorry sorry that is my opinion.
Nero and Weiss are oh so hot and yet that little problem i still find them hot together. XD
Yes i beat the game today!!! MY GOSH!! I wish it was longer but still need to get the secret ending cause i did not succeed in that.
And now that i think about it Shelke is creepy and i do not like her, the ending scared me about her. Hopefully i ain't the only one reading way to much into it.

Do tell.

*linkies* :fangirl:
Your reactions to the loading time are hilarious! :lmao: I don't think I'll be getting this game for a while (FPS are at the bottom of my to-play list, really, something even SE can't change... and I don't have a PS2 right now anyway), so all these little comments are interesting to read!
Could anyone explain what's the deal about Lucrecia? I recall old reports back when the Japanese version was released, about her basically falling in love with everyone. :P
Anti-R - August 23, 2006 04:28 PM (GMT)
Lucrecia reminds me of Yuna, actually. She was so into her work, she doesn't care what happens to herself.
Lucrecia has feelings for Vincent, but her guilt regarding his father seemed to be the cause for her not to cross the line. I really don't understand why she chose Hojo because...
A. Vincent was prettier
B. Hojo's creepy and insane. I swear, one look at him in DoC and you'd look at Lucrecia and say, "what were you smoking?"
In the end, she realized that she loved Vincent (and this was after he got shot, oy) and doesn't want to lose him. Hence he became Chaos, in an attempt to save him.
Things went spiral from there. Lucrecia was wrought with guilt and anguish when her baby was taken from her, and her mind and body was slowly turning into something... unpleasant.
I hope that helps, Lynn. XD
BTW, Vincent has this nice flashback of him sleeping on the grass, Lucrecia teasing him that he's not being a good bodyguard, him protesting he was just resting his eyes, and her producing a basket of food, inviting him to a picnic. And ZOMG they're near to a field of flowers!!! They're evil clerises!!!
Ahem.
Anywho. I've reached Midgar (and whoa, the train graveyard was there!), and busting Vince's butt protecting the WRO (sheesh Reeve, at least TRAIN them to not be stationary target practice, will ya?!). :/
The Shera's interior is nice (Cid has pics of the Highwind and Tiny Bronco!), I was delighted they added Yuffie's punching the air mannerisms.
I still wonder what "Wushians" is... is that what they're called now (the Wutai people)? Will Random Wutaian Dude become Random Wushian Dude? o.0;
I did like Yuffie's "zen stance" before she got her head hit on the wall in the truck scene. She does quiet down when all is said and done. And her using an icebag to fight off her airsickness. And Yuffie coming in and rescuing Vincent, literally pissing Rosso off.
Forgive me. Am fangirling. XD Am also happy this game doesn't seem into yuffentine (apologies to the fans of that pairing, but I can't really see them in an intimate relationship. Plus Vincent's a gothic 60 year old, dammit >.<. That game cements it for me.) I can totally see Vincent x Reeve and Vincent x Shelke though.
Oh, and Cid's speech of "You guys better not die or I will go straight to hell personally to kill you again" and "Shera's getting worried, you know how she is". Makes me realize why he's my favorite FF Cid.
Oh and I have a thing for Random WRO Who Wears the Red Cap Guy, even though he gets killed like 50 times in this game. >.> <.< *is ashamed*
BTW, there is an interesting line from Vincent...
Shelke: So? I don't understand how someone could give her own life for that of another.
Shelke: Do you understand, Vincent Valentine?
Vincent: I can't answer for your sister. But...
Shelke: But?
Vincent: When a person has someone they care about that much, giving their life is sometimes the least they can do.
Vincent: And maybe that's what makes us human.
Shelke: Someone they care about...
Vincent: Although... it seems like there are alot of people around me who don't need a reason to risk their lives for that of another.
might - August 23, 2006 07:24 PM (GMT)
I thought Lucrecia reminded me of Aerith cause of her look, yet combined Yuna. =P Two lovely ladies into one i guess heh.
I had a feeling Lucrecia loved Vincent's old man, i mean she wanted to save Vincent cause he had his eyes. She seemed like she cared for him but more like cause she was responsible for his old man's death.
And just casue i call him Old man doesn't mean he wasn't hot. Vincent's old man was hot! Now we know where he got his hot looks. I so went off subject. =p
I thought that was cute with Vincet's flashbacks, very cute. It made say out loud "Why the heck couldn't Cloud and Aerith get a sweet scene like that!" of course then my mom gave me a 'you're nuts' look. XD
Stupid WRO!! I serioulsy think they are a bunch of idiots! I continued screaming saying random things to Reeve. XD
Me: Damn you Reeve! Don't you know how to train soldiers?
Why the heck don't you give me decent fighters! Get off your hot sexy butt and assit me! Reeve you can't blame me for getting your men killed cause they can't take care of themselves!
and my ranting continued for hours. XD
But my gosh i kept on drooling for the WRO guy with the red cap. Who was like everywhere. I kept on freaking out when i saw him dying. I was like "Nooo my sexy guy with the accent" it was the accent that is what makes a hot guy hotter. heh heh.
I never saw Yuffie and Vincent as a couple, cause lol i mean like you said Anti-R
Vincent is like old enough to be her grandfather! Also i see that Yuffie treats him like a Big Brother! Which is cute.
I so see a Vincent x Reeve thing going on. It makes me squeel louder and louder! XD But Vincent and Shelke? That ain't right, she is 19 but in a 10 year old body...makes you think. "Freaky..." XD
I like that line. It made me say "OMG! Like Aerith did for Cloud! She cared so much for Cloud and everyone she did that! Awwww" then my big brother came and said "Oh shut up, she sacraficed for the planet"
Me: Oh be quiet! YOu will admit she did it cause she cared deeply for Cloud and everyone! Duh! And cause Cloud gave her strength.
Of course i went off subject and realized i was playing DoC. XD
But yeah what Vincent told Shelke right there made sniffle. I am such a sap. =p

Well, unlike Yuffie, Shelke actually bonds with Vincent. Complete with almost hugging and looking at each others' eyes. Plus the ending.

Well yeah cause she has Lucrecia's data floating around her, but i highly doubt Vincent will ever want to have anything to do with a kid, he has morals. =p
I still see that Vincent cares for shelke like a sister or daughter or a good friend, nothing more. The ending...sheesh i was like "Girl you are not normal and Vincent doesn't see you like that"
Why am i even arguing. O_O Well no not arguing but eh we all have our couples ya?
Whatever still freaky to me :P
Anti-R - August 24, 2006 06:07 PM (GMT)
Well after Lucrecia, I can feel sparks between him and Shelke. Vincent actually shows his caring side to that younger girl, anyways.
But then again, I can totally see VinceReeve. Woot~!
might - August 24, 2006 08:03 PM (GMT)
yeah well i would have too, after it she was a child who lost everything and ended up getting the memories of his once love, but eh. I have the perfect match!
VincentxReeve and they adopt Shelke. Yay a happy family!!
^___^
Of course i will get shot later on. =P
Amathala - August 26, 2006 12:29 PM (GMT)
I think I may know why Lucrecia (wow! They totally say her name different than what I have been!) reminds people of Yuna. I think they have the same VA in the English version LOL. I was sitting there and went, "OMG! It's Yuna in Lucrecia's body! You're in the wrong game girlie!" LOL.
From what I've been able to see, I love it so far, my friend rented it and has been playing it. I totally dig Shelke and Shalua (yes, I really thought Shalua was awesome except for that ugly ass outfit...what kind of scientist dresses like that?!).
The worst part of the game was playing as Cait Sith...ugh...sneaking around...I got shot right in the face so many times!
And...of course, I squeed major at the Aerith posters and at the appearance of Cloud :fangirl:
Oh! There are also Cloud posters, pictures of Barrets arm gun, and Red XIII pictures that say "Pet Shop" on them LOL!
might - August 27, 2006 03:20 AM (GMT)
Actually i do not believe Lucrecia's VA is the same one of Yuna's. Still she didn't really remind me of her, she reminded me of Aerith cause well they almost looked the same. =P Or i am just a crazy girl. XD
Yes someone agrees with Shalua's rediculous and hideous outfit!
Awww Amathala you did not like Cait's part? I enjoyed it i was like "Oh yeah Metal Gear has prepared me for this." of course MGS is harder =P
I haven't seen those posters around. Hmm i need to pay attention to the enviornment more. XD

Beat the game, fairly easy, but I liked it. Story line was great gameplay provided something new and challenging, and it was just beautiful. I wouldn't change a thing about it....except that Yuffie's VA changed.
oh and to me, Lucrecia reminded me of Aerith in looks, but Yuna in voice. sooooo
and I liked Shaluah's outfit, if she wasn't wearing that ugly coat.
Shelke though, was sooooooooooo cute I loved her.
Anyway Anti-R, I think that this game was good, and it held alot of great FFVII moments and Characters. I squeeled alot like a fanboy. ^^ :fanboy:
The_Drizzle - August 27, 2006 08:03 AM (GMT)
I'm finding this game fairly fun. I will play to the ending but that'll be it. I see no replay value in this game. My nephew seems to loves it. He said he's already a couple of levels past me, so I guess it will get it's use.. I'm just glad I didnt have to buy it

Actually it does have replay value, IF you dont cheat and get the Super Secret Ending the first time through. I'd replay simply for the fun of getting my accuracy to 100% in all missions.
If you're having a hard time finding the posters, look around in the area where you have to find all the snipers (where you have to have the little boy lead you around), I think that was Edge. You can see just about everything there, a picture of the car that you escape from ShinRa headquarters is there too...and this really blurry picture that looks like a cropped picture of that artwork of the FFVII main cast (minus Aerith *sniffle*)
Anti-R - August 31, 2006 05:41 PM (GMT)
I dunno. Seeing you know who carrying you know who to yaoiland together secret ending doesn't sound rewarding for me...
might - September 1, 2006 05:01 AM (GMT)
Anit-R you got the secret ending?
I mean i still want to see it, and i wish it was yaoiland! Heh heh but still i would replay to get better grades and the secret ending and of course squeel over Vincent and Reeve. Hear Reeve laugh. My gosh when Reeve laughs it is sooooo hot!! Am i the only one who thinks that!? I mean you will all need to agree with me that when Reeve laughs you want to melt. XD I am such a fangirl. =p
Anti-R - September 1, 2006 12:12 PM (GMT)
I didn't finish the game yet. But I did saw it through YouTube.
Reeve is hot. I give you that.
Yeah, yaoiland, the most wonderful place a fangirl should dream about...
might - September 1, 2006 06:24 PM (GMT)
Oh okay then, well i would watch it on youtube but i rather watch it in a clearer and bigger screen. ^^ Plus i'm a sucker for trying to redeem my grading. =P
Woot Point for Reeve, yes he is a hottie. Heh heh.
Yaoiland...well i'm a yaoi fangirl and yet i never even dreamed of a place like that. O_O My gosh! I must be mad!
afterglow - September 2, 2006 05:31 AM (GMT)
Great game. The VincentxLucrecia thing is just so sweet.
Anti-R - September 2, 2006 03:19 PM (GMT)
Anyways, I repeated the game. Because Hard Mode is annoying. T.T Couldn't get to finish Chapter 8 because the game obviously hates Vincent. Grrrrr...
EDIT: I got to chapter 5 within 4 hours. 0.o;. Hmm.
