the "chuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" sound? xD
No to both, it relates to a specific boss battle.
The buzzing vacuuming noise before that Air Buster thing that P. Shinra throws at you?
It's not the sound Air Buster makes.
My subordinates may sing their own praises
By shouting their strengths,
But this changes here!
Everything is my strength!
Go on, say it with me! Sing my strength!
Hint 1: The person of the riddle commands a you, the player, to sing his praises with him.
Hint 2: The answer strongly relates to a person, but is not a person
Hint 3: The answer is not tangible, and is heard before a specific boss battle
Incorrect guesses:
Rufus Shinra
Master Materia
Professor Gast
Great Gospel
Lunatic High
Touch Me Frog
Don Corneo
Shinra Executives
Sephiroth
Knights of the Round
Church in Sector 5 Slums
One-Winged Angel
Rufus's Welcoming Parade
Phantom of the Opera
Lifestream
Fury Brand
Spirit Boost
Megaphones
Rufus's Parade Theme
Something from Crisis Core :p
"Chuuuuuuuuu"
The sound Air Buster makes
Something that I see people are doing is looking at only the last hint. Look at all the hints together as well as the riddle. If I see a couple more guesses still being off track, I'll give another hint to add on to the last and hopefully narrow down future guesses.
The sound the Carry Armor makes as it's walking in?
Nope, it isn't the clanging of Carry Armor.
Hm.... Toughy... Could it relate to the Gi boss? I don't recall the name, but you fight him in the Cosmo Canyon caves.....
It has nothing to do with Gi Na... err... Nanatakitakkawakalaka. Whatever.
Hint 4: The answer is spoken.
Whatever the Demon Wall says before the battle?
Nope, it isn't the Demon Wall. It is said by a person.
"Gya ha ha"
Nope, it's not Gyahaha.
Is it whatever Don Corneo says before dropping you into the sewers to fight Rapps?
"OMNI CHANGE!"
Correct!
My subordinates may sing their own praises
By shouting their strengths,
The other 4 members of the pagoda would yell out what they represent, or their strength, whether it was power, magic, speed, or weapons...
But this changes here!
Everything is my strength!
...But for Godo, everything is his strength! Omni literally means everything, or all.
Go on, say it with me! Sing my strength!
This line was to tell the reader what they were looking for. It commands the reader to say Godo's strength, so you come up with "Omni Change", because, as said above, everything is his strength.
As a whole, the riddle is very arrogant, which fits Godo's personality well, from what I can remember.
Good job Karifean!
Good riddle!
Very good riddle.
I'm still not sure I understand the 'sing' references... but it was a tricky one!
You aren't actually singing. I said in a previous hint that it was just using the idiom "Singing Praises".
And thank you for the compliments :3
Whoever wants it can take it.
Tik tak, you wil only see me at one certain hour.
there is no way back, i will devour.
you will face me after your nemesis.
and thats just how it is..
could make up anything at the last sentence :P
dnt think this one is to hard :o
Demon Wall.
jupe ^^
Soooo... is Sam right or not?
I'm not sure what 'jupe' means... isn't it a type of skirt?
from what planet are you? :P
Jupe = yes
To be fair, I was confused as well :monster:
aah ok.. i thought it was 'global thing', but i guess its more a dutch thing
even though ive heard it in several american movies :O
Name them! :D
Pretty sure she means "yup".
That's what I was thinking.... "jupe" seems to be Dutch accented when spoken (and thus when written).
Ahh... no worries. I quite like the word 'jupe' for 'yes' anyway. I might try and see if I can get my friends to start using it.
OK, next riddle!
aaah now it all makes sense :D ..
and bout the movies: at the moment i can only think of Mr. & Mss Smith
and im a She btw :o
Unless we're told otherwise, Shaibana, we will assume the person to be male. In cases like this, "he", "him", and "male" are used as a neutral gender as we don't have one.... unless we call the person "it"......
Anyway, next riddle please.
and to undo they off that neutraility im informing you that i am of the female gender ^^
.. so now u are told otherwise :)
or actualy i already did in my previous message :D
... so.. bring on that new riddle xD
Beautiful, everlasting,
I was stricken down,
But I'm supposed to last forever!
Are we looking for a person?
Jenova?
Aerith?
Tifa's boobs?
They can't stay that pert forever.
Beautiful, everlasting, - the answer is both beautiful and everlasting.... does "everlasting" relate to eternal?
I was stricken down, - the answer is "stricken down"
But I'm supposed to last forever! - the answer is "supposed"-ly eternal
I'm going to guess the Rocket in Rocket Town, the one that was used to get into space when trying to get the Huge Materia.
Lucrecia?
Bubba, how was Lucrecia "stricken down"?
I wonder if the answer is intangible? (For that matter can anyone get a hold of Tifa's Boobs user?)
No.
And it is tangible.
Hm...
TiBoo, that's what I'm calling you, can to tell us the direction we need to look? If the answer is not Aerith, then what direction?
I really can't say without spoiling it.
Could anyone, please, repeat the riddle along with the incorrect guesses and any hints?
Beautiful, everlasting,
I was stricken down,
But I'm supposed to last forever!
It is something tangible.
Incorrect guesses:
Jenova
Aerith
Tifa's boobs
Lucrecia
Sephiroth? If the riddle is told from his view.
President Shinra?
If it is not him, then what does I mean?
One of the weapons?
Rufus Shrina !
I'll guess Sephiroth.
Beautiful, everlasting,
I was stricken down,
But I'm supposed to last forever!
This entire riddle makes me think of Midgar for some reason.
Rydrum's on the right track.
I just realized that this was my riddle. :3
TB was probably distracted by how perfect she is ^^ no offense. Anyway. Ultima weapon.
Diamond Weapon. Because diamonds are forever.
hmm also makes sense.
Thanks Jared. (if that is too local of a joke- then how about: Thanks Sean!)
I'll say ultimate weapon.
Although he didn't say it was a weapon just that my thought was on the right track. There are a number of of things in the game that were supposed to last forever (i.e. jenova)
Tifa's Boobs is a girl, oddly enough.
darn it I was close lol
well he thought you were a guy lol. I thought you were a guy too until I looked on your profile and was like "ooo a girl ^_^"
anyways awesome jiro is on hopefully we get the next riddle soon ^_^ haven't done this in years.
Everywhere you look
Disaster strikes!
Just close your eyes
Or look to the front
Try not to notice
god I hate making riddles or something.
I don't know Cloud/Tifa.
Jiro can you say if it's a person, thing, or event?
It's a person. None of the guesses so far are right.
Aeris.
Incorrect!
Oh! Shinra manager. That guy on the train.
Nope, not him either!
wow lol am I close? hmm maybe Reeve.
Here's a handy hint: the character doesn't have a name ;)
oh it's some random npc
Everywhere you look
Disaster strikes!
I'm guessing, this relates to the Mako energy draining the Planet.
Just close your eyes
Or look to the front
Try not to notice
I'm not sure, but I think this refers to constant fighting because of the Mako energy draining.
My guess: the Mako produced by the Shinra Electric Company.
Shinwa Tsuki I think you're a bit off target. Keep trying though, with thought processes like you have, it won't be long before you find that right thread to follow.
Hm...
Is it that guy in Midgar who looks down all the time and then up, and then decides to look straight ahead? I think that's how it went.
Is it some guy on a train? .....could it be the guy Barret almost beats up?
The guy on the train who steals from you?
So wait he got the riddle right? Congrats Rantz!
Rantz you're up.
Here's my riddle:
Forsooth! My hair is... a chocobo!!
Are you smurfing Cloud
YES I AM
Well well well! Let me just get around to writing a riddle, one moment plz.
Deep and dark and dank
Watch out slick, better be quick!
This is where you come face to face with the face.
The Fire Cave!
hmm you mean the gi cave?
Gi Cave, Fire Cave, same diff.
It is the Cave of the Gi.
Aight, so I got it?
Lemme come up with something.
First I was
Then I wasn't
Then I am, and then I am, and then I am
Hidden secrets, and I still am
But not as much
First I was
The answer was their first... .
Then I wasn't
And then is wasn't... .
Then I am, and then I am, and then I am
The answer is likely seen in Midgar first, then in other areas.
Hidden secrets, and I still am
The answer is still there, yet it contains hidden secrets.
But not as much
The secrets that the answer holds is still there but "not as much".
im verry bad at riddle's...
yuffie's secret hidden materia stack?
I'm not sure...... I forgot to give my answer as my previous post was my analysis. My guess: the Potion item, it looses it's potency, you see it often, although I'm not sure about the 'hidden secrets'.
Nope. :)
First I was
-available at or near the beginning of the game?
Then I wasn't
-unavailable for a little while
Then I am, and then I am, and then I am
-the available again, in disc 1, still available in disc 2, then still again in disc 3
Hidden secrets, and I still am
-maybe where it's still available is hidden?
But not as much
-some of the places it can be obtained have been closed off?
Hmm... No guesses here, but that's how I analyzed it.
The answer can not be a missable item then. I guess the Cure/Restore materia as you don't need it as much later on in the game.
You encounter it in a way, but it's still optional in another way.
Wouldn't happen to be those dudes who act as a tutorial?
I second Jiro's guess. Even though I still dislike him >.>
Ah, nope.
You can encounter on any disk, but is most important on first disc. Semi-compulsory.
Getting Aerith's final limit break, Great Gospel?
... Aeris? >.>
Golden Saucer?
No. It's a monster.
So not Yuffie then?
The Ghost monster that you can steal the Ghost Glove from in the Train Graveyard?
Midgar Zolom?
cactuar?
About damn time! Karifean got it after a trout ton of hints!
First I was
The first time you see it, it's alive in the swamp and slithering around.
Then I wasn't
Sephiroth impales it on a tree, so it's dead
Then I am, and then I am, and then I am
After that, it's back! And you can kill it several times.
Hidden secrets, and I still am
If you use the save glitch, it's still there...
But not as much
...but far enough away to outrun it!
Karifean, go.
Anyone feel free to take my turn.
DON'T ANSWER IT IF YOU WON'T MAKE A RIDDLE :mad2:
Oh, my dearest love
The secret things you've been hiding
Lost in memories, but still so close
If I look, will I find you?
If I find you, will I lose you?
aeris
Nope.
The Lifestream Event?
Nope.
Remember, rationalizing always helps, so I can see your thinking! :)
Some people enjoy making riddles, others enjoy solving them. This thread has been around forever too, so lots of people have just ran out of ideas.
That's why it's fun when someone relatively new takes an interest, as it sparks the thread up again.
Forgive me as I couldn't write a riddle to save my life, but I'll have a crack at this one since I like it -
Is it Lucrecia?
Nope.
Crop's right. I've been extremely dedicated to the riddles threads since they were first created, so I've fairly run out of ideas, as well. Heck, I've even just reposted one of my exact same riddles more than once. >.> But that doesn't leave this thread.
Is it Aerith's mom, Ifalna?
noopr
My breakdown.
Oh, my dearest love
The answer is someone or something that is very dear. The person or thing is loved by the speaker.
The secret things you've been hiding
The answer has secrets that they've been hiding.
Lost in memories, but still so close
The answer is lost in memories, but is still spiritually close by.
If I look, will I find you?
If the speaker looks, they would find their love — which is the answer.
If I find you, will I lose you?
Yet, if the speaker finds their love, would they loose it?
Something brings to mind the Lifestream in general.
The answer is not a person.
Uh.... Okay.
Oh, my dearest love
The secret things you've been hiding
Lost in memories, but still so close
If I look, will I find you?
If I find you, will I lose you?
I think Miss Boobs said it wasn't a person. It does smack of the Lifestream event though with "Lost in memories" and "Secrets you've been hiding".
Though if not... is it the secret cinema section involving Zack in the basement of the Shinra mansion?
Oh, I didn't even see that hint. Hmm.
No to all.
Hint: The riddle is from Cloud's perspective.
Cloud's dearest love could be anything. It could be his memories themselves. Or his sanity. That voice in his head.
Hmm... it's hard to imagine that Cloud's "dearest love" wouldn't be a person. Unless he has an extreme liking for his hair or something.
The secret things you've been hiding
There are lots of "secret" and "hidden" things in this game. Cait Sith hides the fact that he's a spy but he's hardly Cloud's dearest love (unless he 's weirder than we thought).
Is it maybe the White Materia? It is hidden that Aeris has used it and prayed for Holy. Plus, it reminds Cloud of Aeris "lost in memory"
Actually, that's pretty thin. I don't think it's that.
I've no idea. The riddle seems a bit too vague unless I'm missing something really obvious which I probably am.
He's speaking to someone, but the answer isn't a person.
is it Midgar?
I'm not sure about the 'dearest love' part, but the rest sounds a lot like Cloud on the brink of finding out who he actually is.
Basically schizophrenic, his secrets are hidden from his own mind. While he knows a memory but it's altered so he puts himself in another's shoes. So close yet so far. But by 'finding you' while meaning himself, he will lose what he knew so well about himself.
So that's my answer - Cloud talking to his consciousness. ? - My first post by the way.
Perhaps the Buster Sword then!
Buster Sword....I think you might have it! As if I looked way way too deep into that one. Buster Sword makes so much sense and also way more simple than the whole conciouss thing.
Tifa's Boobs did say talking to someone, though. I'm not so sure now. Jenova? The voice in his head? This is confusing.
The first key is to figure out who he's talking to. It's relatively simple and straightforward. :)
I assume he's talking to Tifa?
Um, I dunno...
The letter Cloud finds in her room?
Is it an open floor for riddle's?
No. One riddle at a time, whoever correctly guesses makes the next riddle.
Oh, My Dearest Love
This means he's talking to Tifa, that's not the answer but that's a clue in itself.
The Secret Thing You've Been Hiding
Maybe meaning - Tifa was hiding the fact that Cloud shouldn't be experiencing those memories that way.That it was someone else's memories.
If I Look, Will I Find You?
If I Find You, Will I Lose You?
This is all very cryptic.
If I look, will I find you?
If I find you, will I lose you?
Italic is the answer to the riddle. Bold is Tifa.
Hmmm... it still seems pretty vague to me. It's a little confusing as well as the riddle clearly relates to both the answer and Tifa. There isn't a clear distinction between either.
Oh, My Dearest Love
As previously stated, this refers to Tifa.
The Secret Thing You've Been Hiding
Which "you" is this one? Tifa or the answer?. If we assume that it's Tifa then I suppose the main thing she was hiding was the truth about Cloud's past.
Lost in memories, but still so close
Cloud has a lot of memories, some true and some false, but he is close to finding the truth.
If I Look, Will I Find You
This relates to the answer so maybe it is the truth about Cloud's past?
If I Find You, Will I Lose You
If Cloud discovers the truth he may have lost Tifa.
I'm sure this has already been guessed but I'm going to go with simply... the truth about Cloud.
Focus on the third line more than the fourth.
Lost in memories,
This is the line that reminds me most of the Lifestream event but we already know it isn't that. Cloud is pretty much lost in memories the whole game.
but still so close... close to what? Close to Tifa? Close to the truth? Close to finding himself? There doesn't seem to be any concrete clues that allude to anything in particular. It's probably just something obvious that I'm missing though which is annoying!
oh smurf it, do you guys just want me to give you the answer?
It's up to you. I can't figure it out so..
Bubba has been the closest so far. Very close in fact.
Well I'll happily do the next riddle if I've been closest so yeah... we'll have the answer because I'm all out.
I demand a thorough explanation though!
trout I don't know, Tifa's house?
The orthopedic underwear!
You are given the choice of whether or not you look in her cupboard.
If you find them will she think you're a dirty pervert? Probably... I took them every time
About time, after I spoon fed it to you.
Oh, my dearest love
Tifa, of course.
The secret things you've been hiding
Her undies :)
Lost in memories, but still so close
You find the panties in the flashback. Tifa is still nearby wearing underwear, though.
If I look, will I find you?
You've gotta look for the underwear to find it.
If I find you, will I lose you?
If you find the underwear, you piss Tifa off.
Go, Bubba.
To be fair though, the riddle was so vague and confusing we needed spoon-feeding... it literally could've been anything.
I'll do one in the morning when I'm in work.
Double post, what of it? :cool:
Sounds pretty straightforward to me but they all do when you know the answer... anyway, here goes.
Soothing and relaxing, it's me you first keep
But it's certain we will pay for our sleep
You mite not reach, you might not find
Give five of the best, I'm handy in a bind
After knowing that the person was Tifa, I knew exactly what the answer was. Sorry I didn't come and guess it earlier! Good one TB, nicely played indeed.
Gonna go out on a limb and suggest Bubba is looking for an item here. Not sure yet, but it must be early in the game. I'll think more on it.
Tent?
Nope.
Nope. But you're getting there with the second line.
It's the last line I'm confused most about.
The Lunar Harp?
It's not the harp.
Does it have to do with Fort Condor at all?
Cure Materia?
The dress you where to fool Don Corneo!
did you mean might? or did you use the bug "mite" on purpose?
Soothing and relaxing, it's me you first keep
But it's certain we will pay for our sleep
You mite not reach, you might not find
Give five of the best, I'm handy in a bind
Nope.
The spelling of mite is on purpose but doesn't relate to the bug 'mite'
Is this referring to an Item?
Molotov Cocktail?
the 1/35th solider?
The first thing you "keep" is the potions off the guard. I can't help but feel it's related to potions. However, the sleeping part - which obviously references an Inn - makes me think more along the lines of the Wall Market Inn where you sleep at the Inn to get the energy drinks or w/e for the guy who gets you the tiara.
There are also way more ideas bouncing around but I'm struggling to clean 'em up
Could it be Mogrys?
I JUST FIGURED IT OUT :D
It's the 5 gil of the sleeping boy in Sector 5!
In retropect, i think my first line is a little bit misleading. It relates to the place in which the item is found. The word "keep" relates more to the old-fashioned term for tower or town. The location is outside of Midgar though.
It isn't mogrys or 1/35 soldier.
Sorry Miss Boobs, it's not that.
I can see where you're coming from though!
PHS?
Outside of Midgar and before Fort Condor leaves us with the following locations:
Kalm
Nibleheim (flashback)
Mythril Mines
Chocobo Farm
I'd say Kalm is the winner thanks to it being the first post-Midgar location you find.
Oh is it the Megalixir you get for smashing the cupboard? Takes five good hits after all.
Correct! Jiro has it!
Soothing and relaxing, it's me you first keep
The first part references the name of the town "Kalm" while the latter part refers to the first town or "keep" you come to on the world map.
But it's certain we will pay for our sleep
As a few of you pointed out it's a clear reference to an Inn.
You mite not reach, you might not find
Refers to the Megalixer in the Inn cupboard that you can't reach. Some players don't find the secret of obtaining it. Also, "mite" is an anagram of the word 'item'.
Give five of the best, I'm handy in a bind
As Jiro correctly pointed out, it takes five hits to dislodge said item from it's home.
You're up, man!
Good Job Dak!
Well played Jiro- I didn't even remember that, until you mentioned it.
I've got 3844 files all squared away
This floor is all about that
But organisation isn't my strong suit
I'll sit here and let my hart do the work
Just have to remember the password
Yeah that should be enough nonsense for you to figure it out.
