  • Yeah, I hated the multiverse thing. I do think they did a better job of showing that cloud is having a mental breakdown. The fact that he could see Aerith when nobody else could really made the mental breakdown stuff so much more clear than it was in the original. I’ll be playing the final game, but I didnt give Square Enix my money on part 2, gotta voice my displeasure of the unnecessary story changes somehow. We’ll see how bad they flub the last one and if its actually worth buying from Square directly, or if I’ll find a used copy months after release again.


  • I didnt like part 1 bcz it had so many story changes. The whisps really made me irrationally angry. The forced story changes into the game for no reason. Im not even bothered by the extra fluff about the side characters that wasn’t in the original. But there are so many fundamental story changes, and then you meet Sephiroth as the final boss?! There’s nowhere to go from there, you’ve revealed the big bad guy already, and not in a logical flowing progression like you should. I do get the linearity of the first one tho. That did make the game easier to get through.





  • Well said, Humans are social creatures, everyone wants to feel accepted and like they matter in their community. When you aren’t getting that, you get extremism.

    Like seriously, I despise the right, especially the people using it to influence and gain power knowing they dont believe their own bullshit they’re spewing. But we have to extend these people olive branches and try meet them somewhere or they will just go farther into their echo chambers. I’ve had a hard time putting that into words here on lemmy and its been frustrating bcz the sentiment around here is ‘the only good nazi isna dead nazi’, and then every MAGA person is lumped in that group (and for the record anybody reading this, I agree with the sentiment). But these MAGA followers aren’t the nazis, the leaders are, and the people in government. These are people who have been duped just like the rest of us. And we’ve all somehow bought it hook line and sink. This isn’t just fascism, its class warfare, and the billionaires are winning right now all around the world.






  • I once found a commit message in our commit history that just said, “i hate git…” bcz they hadn’t changed anything, and I think it took a new line character and decided that they’d actually changed like 5 lines of code twhen they hadn’t.

    It was the funniest shit, someone who was a senior lead for like 9 years that had left, and 5 years later I find that…
