hands up if in ff7 after finding out Red 13's real name when starting a playthrough again you just renamed him Nanaki instead of Red XIII out of respect for his culture and his people and then were like :| when the game straight up just went "Nanaki, otherwise known as Nanaki" because it was just a name entry field.

like c'mon square the fuck would I wanna call him by the bullshit alias the humans (especially hojo) assigned to him!? That's not his friggin name.

also ngl the cosmo canyon bit in ff7 where Nanaki finds out the truth about his father Seto always makes me cry.

...but like...

fuck. give the dude a fuckin' Soft potion already I've got like a ton of them here and I almost never use them.

@Nine I like that they do that in ff9 XD although it has to be a super soft. Regular soft won't do!

@Nine wait XD wouldn't it need sugar? I mean, sugar stops cement from setting, so... Maybe sugar is the magic ingredient

@bentosmile though also BRB pouring bags of granulated sugar all over corporate highrises to dissolve the already set concrete :3

@Nine i think there was originally gonna be some shit with like, clones of him you'd fight called Blue XIV and Green XII or some shit. as i keep saying, ff7 was good by accident,

@jk oh, fuck yeah that's a point I totally FORGOT about that. Like Nanaki even goes "wait am /I/ a Jenova clone too!?" and then it just gets fuckin' ignored immedaitely and never brought up whatsoever

@jk holy shit josef you're right ff7 WAS good by accident holy shit this game is a mess.

@Nine i'm glad that the production of the game was such a mess because it stopped them going deep enough into their ideas that they got stupid? playing FFX right now and you can tell it had a much more ordered, sensible approach, much to its detriment

@jk I never played FFX. ... fuck I have FF15 and I haven't played that yet what the fuck am I doing

@Nine @jk ff15 was so awesome! (it's worth noting that I like riding around in cars staring at the scenery, and 15 is a big riding in cars staring at scenery sim. So I mostly did that, sidequested, and camped out and cooked. Oh, and ate all the restaurant food. My friend who didn't do that had a very different, much shorter, experience)

@Nine @jk still, it's one of the few ff games I have completed, so that says something. First time I played it too! I had to play 13 twice to finish it.

That means the only ones I've completed first time are 7, 9, 10 (bafflingly, because it was painful), and 15 o_o

@Nine yeah, I did that just to see if anything would happen (sorry, I'm spamming up your mentions here with ff7 stuff. I have played that game a lot. Like really a lot.)

@bentosmile Oh hecka same, don't worry. I used to love FF7 like, a LOT (I still do, I just also used to :3 ) It's the only final fantasy game I've actually completed too. granted I did that with an Action Replay/Gameshark or whatever it was on the PS1, because fffuuuuuck jrpg grinding. But still, I used to have loads of ideas about the story and stuff and had to kinda read between the lines on a lot and also wished that Cloud would keep wearing the pretty dress throughout the entire rest of it
