If you haven't seen "Smash Bros X FFVII Part II" yet, I'm coordinating a project with @pm_pik , @RealSushiiZ , @CSharpM7 , and @_incredibleplay , with other collaborators joining later, to bring OG Aerith to Smash, like how Nintendo did with Cloud and Sephiroth! Here's a sneak peek!

Massive respect for them. This part of the article further hits home how much they value a series' identity, and I wish other series were more like this, not just at Square. Outside Nintendo, it's very rare to find companies that have this level of artistic integrity and care.

@ActualAero Why? The talent and passion behind Xenogears is entirely at Monolith. They left Square for a reason. SE is not suitable to handle this remake. At best, if we were to have someone co-develop it, Arte Piazza would be a good choice.

This kind of philosophy is what feeds into rehashes of older media in the most soulless form. Star Fox fans aren't desperate for any new form of content. We're desperate for a return to form to great content like the series deserves to be known for, which Command is not.

@ActualAero Who would even handle a Xenogears remake? Kitase? That sounds like a match made in hell, couldn't be a worse omen for the project. The reality is it's infinitely better if SE sold the rights to Monolith and call it a day.

FFVII Rebirth's sales numbers for Japan are out. And I think they tell a deeper story of how FF has lost its appeal to its homeland after losing its identity and quality assurance to audiences. Look at these numbers since 1997. The market was much smaller back then.

@MonsterMazeYT @GameXplain I think it's primarily because of the platform in which those characters appear in. Smash Bros is unquestionably elite and of extremely high standard. Fortnite is not seen the same way, it's extremely vast and indiscriminate with its IP choice and handling of them.

@HighwindMkII @NightSkyPrince_ You must be seriously stretching beyond belief if you really think the OG lore had any indication of an omnitemporal multiverse hub, literal wishy-washy mechanics that incarnate things in the Lifestream, among other things.

@theWellRedMage The funniest thing about this is the misdirection on what the problem was. It's not the emulation, it's yuzu's illegal profiting and support fixes for TotK emulation on their patreon that took them down. Emulators are out there just fine. They aren't destroying random emulators.

@JesseCox The Compilation of FFVII is basically what the Star Wars Sequels and Prequels were, except to a worse extent because the creative soul to them are not contingent to what drove the original work. FFVII and Star Wars, from work to fandom, share so much in common, it's ridiculous.

And you can tell also when the drops start to happen. It always follows a serious let-down and divisive reaction from fans and casual consumers. It's no coincidence every FF release since XII has been met with divisive discourse. Review scores don't matter in the long run.

If Zack is killed, it would be a cheap way of giving narrative purpose to his survival, serving as Aerith's Deus Ex Machina tool. It would also be a betrayal to the main audience this project is for: the self-proclaimed FF7 fans that actually grew up on Crisis Core. (5/27)

@jonah_da_mann If people told you that, they're lying to your face. OoT has zero to do with alternate universes. It's a time travel story that works because time travel is baked into the storytelling, it has rules. What OoT ends on is creating different timelines, bc stakes are a thing.

The only option that makes narrative sense (even if I fundamentally disagree with the type of story they're telling here) is killing Cloud. It's the only type of shock that would surprise people as much as Aerith's in '97. It's the cliffhanger for Part 3 with Zack leading. (6/27)

To be specific, I believe the two chars who interacted with the Lifestream will explain their knowledge by the Planet's own conscience, winking to a cycle of rebirth this world had and how the time jannies know what destiny even is. This will be spiced with multiverse BS (20/27)

This leaves us with the alternatives. Who would die? Many would say Tifa bc Remake plants the seed for her death by the hands of Sephiroth. Dramatically this wouldn't work, because Tifa is the tool necessary to validate Cloud's memories being fake. Her death wouldn't work. (3/27)

Given Barrett's early development as a character in Remake, with him opening up way more to his comrades instead of being haunted by his past like in the OG, I have a feeling that Dyne's story won't end tragically. There may be a redemption arc here instead for Barrett. (23/27)

They are not a good frame of reference. The only ones are Banjo and Steve, which joined bc of what I explained

@MonsterMazeYT @GameXplain I don't quite follow. Acknowledging that there is competition in the market and that their business models (especially from Nintendo and Sony) appeal to exclusivity isn't promoting console war rhetoric, much less division. It is just how things work. Even Epic does this on PC.

@MonsterMazeYT @toraktz @flying__candy @HMKilla It is called "coping mechanism". It's a way for people to deal with cognitive dissonance when they are met with a clear threat to a narrative they believe so much. People like this individual love to strawman the opposition into extremes to legitimize themselves being extreme.

This is the exploration of Tokyo from a Versus XIII inspired game I was wanting for a while. Impressed by the brand placements. Must have an enormous amount of funding just for the licensing. Really happy to see this on Switch too. One of my most looked forward to games!

@Sold1st_class This is fake news. The original quote merely mentions the development flow with Sony timed exclusivity allowing them to focus on one platform instead of working on ports in parallel. Hard doubt it'll stay exclusive to PS, specially with PS5 and FFVII R underperforming in sales.

@MonsterMazeYT This is what brand loyalty gets them. Now that criticism on TotK gained steam in discourse, expect some more "passionate" people to show up and try to dunk on you. You did good there!

@Sold1st_class It's the FF fandom. They will by all means mobilize people to hunt down the dissidents. Do not fear them when we can stick together and try as much as possible to reach out to those who are reasonable. Keep expectations in line and do your best to keep making good content.

What a complete disaster. People on copium overdose claiming 4 was made bad on purpose to kill off the franchise should really rethink their bottom tier take on the film being secretly good because of it all being ""intentional"". The PR for this one sounds soulless, as expected.

The absolute king 🧎‍♂️ This is gorgeous! What a wonderful addition to Mother 3's representation. I wish this was a real approach to Lucas's alts in Smash 6.

I've added Claus as an alternate character for Lucas! (It's a rather simple mod, similar to how Olimar and Alph work in Ultimate) Included is a new hair model made from scratch, a proper name change, and an announcer call. #SSBU #スマブラSP

@YasumiMatsuno @DOITYOUCOWARDS @Dreamboum I admire your nuanced take on this. However, I also think that the author's approval doesn't automatically make something artistically aligned with the preservation of the original vision either. If the author approves a fundamental change, it is still a fundamental change.

@DOITYOUCOWARDS @Dreamboum And when I say fundamental change, I don't mean trying to make a joke understandable to a particular market. I'm talking about a line that is completely foreign to the scenario, character or the world itself. An author may not always see that an idea might clash with his own work

@NightSkyPrince_ This a million times. Discourse used to have basis on the premise of arguing each point as their opinion or a challenge to an opinion for intellectual development. The internet generation of people is filled with immaturity and a shocking attachment to media as their own persona

@LogosSteve I would say that the grotesque state of the franchise showed its rot overnight. I dropped Pokemon in the early-00s, so my bias tends to be negative. I saw it as the lesser franchise of Nintendo's catalogue for a good while. It was always debatable whether it was still worthwhile.

@MAZEiro0 The greatest artist doing work on OG FFVII material. Thank you so much for your inspiring work. ❤️ By the way, I'm a Youtuber currently producing a long-form video series on OG FFVII, and I was wondering if we could talk about a collaboration effort. My DMs are open!

Since FFVII Rebirth is out in the wild, I'll take the opportunity to list some predictions on what will happen, before the spoilers actually come raining in over the next few days. Prepare for the potentially spoiler-filled thread below. (1/27) 🧵
