So much to take in but my first thought is... do Biggs and Jessie ESCAPE from the Sector 7 plate collapse?!! That's what it looks like!!

Where is my cross-dressing Cloud?!

It’s all looking pretty great though. I’m looking forward to it.
For 2 minutes and 49 seconds I was no longer dead inside.
OMG I LOVE IT
Nah... because of them parachuting away together!Quote:

I guess Nomura really liked that character design - put a bit of bum fluff on his chin and voila! :lol:
That's a new OC do not steal
Hm, interesting. So we have a new SOLDIER character. Looks like we'll get Ifrit and Shiva in Midgard now. Also, it looks like Tifa is going to be helping out with the Cross Dressing sequence instead of it just being a bonding moment between Cloud and Aerith. It also looks like we'll get to face off against Rude as well. Frog Cloud was adorable.
The shadow things are a bit weird, but I'll hold my judgment for now. Not sure if the rest of AVALANCHE is going to survive the Sector 7 elimination, I keep imagining the parachute will be a hope spot and then some shrapnel will hit them and they'll come crashing down with the rest of the top layer. I honestly hope they still die. Don't wuss out on me Squenix.

The parachuting is a neat touch; it'll bookend nicely with the parachute raid from toward the end of the game, but it's also a cool different way for the AVALANCHE crew to get from the upper plate to the slums once the trains stop being an option.
But why does the dialogue have to be so corny!
"Let's lay down some rubber!"
"Crank that throttle!"
"Feels like we're flying high these days"
I almost want to play the game in Japanese with subtitles Haha.
Also I expected barret to be a bit cringy but I'm a bit sad we dont get his foul mouth or at least some bleeps.
Eh anyways I'll still be playing it haha
Oh yes, it's far more corny than the original script and its Shakespearean dialogue. "Let's mosey" is up there with the classic.
This looks amazing. Loved seeing Corneo, the Reno/Rude battles, and frog Cloud.
I've watched this trailer so many times. So. Many. Times.
I love how it looks like we fight Reno in the church after Cloud falls through the roof. I did always find it odd that in the original he just stood there waiting for Cloud and Aerith to plot their escape. I mean, Reno, your target is right there. Go and get her!
Also the hologram of President ShinRa in the reactor is a nice addition. I mean if you were the president of a multi billion gil mega corporation that has a stronghold on the world would you really turn up to say hello/goodbye to a bunch of anti-corp terrorists?! Plus he brands the party as "allies of Wutai". The fact that Wutai is mentioned so early on is great and I'm looking forward to seeing how this pans out.
I think that might be a different scene due to the trailer being out of context. Tifa shouldn't be there, the whole reason Cloud & Aerith dress up is to get in to Don Corneos to save Tifa. Of course they might have changed it up a bit, but if they have that would mean Tifa & Aerith would have had to have met each other and gone to Wall Market before the fight with air Buster and I can't see that happening.Quote:

Yeah, you're both probably right in regards to that. I mean thinking about Tifa seemed to have gotten herself captured almost too quickly after the fall. The game is going to be a lot longer so maybe Cloud will take Aerith to Seventh Heaven after going to Aerith's house.Quote:

Not sure how to feel about this, I just hope he's nowhere near as bad as the ones introduced in Crisis Core.
That's not even the worst of the original's mistranslations. Also when has a Final Fantasy game NOT had corny dialogue?Quote:

Corny dialogue aside, there is literally no consistency, Cait Sith starts talking with a southern drawl at one point for no reason and that's never mentioned again, and from disc two onwards some lines of dialogue are downright incomprehensible. This was this weird moment between Ted Woolsey and Alexander O. Smith, because it wasn't until VII's success that SE realized "hey, maybe we actually need a dedicated localization team with professional translators who know what they're doing." Woolsey was really the exception rather than the rule before this.
Decided to check out Ted Woolsey on Wikipedia (which I know is hardly a reliable source) but it says on there that the last game he translated for Square was Super Mario RPG? It says he left before the English localization of FFVII began?Quote:

I'm very well aware of the OG FF7 translation's myriad of problems, not just the disjointed dialogue but the ridiculous amounts of typos and grammatical errors ("This guy are sick", "Beacause, you are...a puppet", "Off course!") and the remake's newly translated dialogue looks to be an improvement over that, and doesn't seem to be any worse or cornier than that of any other Final Fantasy.
I think he's actually dropped off the localization scene back in the 90s, actually. We owe a hell of a lot to him, with games like FFVI, Chrono Trigger, and Secret of Mana to his credit. I think all this is all the more impressive when you consider that he didn't even get a script of the games he translated - he just had to translate and jot down his translations in a notebook. And then he had to fit his translated text into the text boxes, adhere to Nintendo's policies at the time... With what little tools he had at his disposal, the guy did an amazing job and I miss him.Quote:
