The slums... such a dreary place. Nobody lives there because they want to. They're just like the train... it can only go where the tracks take it.

the beginning made me happy, sort of a "well at least i'm not living in that dump" feeling
i liked the whole atmosphere that the slums set, its as if your fighting your way up from the bottom.
-Gull-
No, it doesn't
What makes me sad is that Aeris is trying to sell "flowers" in the alley. It's such a shame what drugs make people do.
It didn't make me sad. I like the way it looked actually
Nah. I thought the slums were boring.
LOL, I feel so happy listening to Levian's link.
Are we really so removed from the time of street vendors that this is the first thing people think of? Flower venders were amoung the bottom of society. You had to be desperate to sell flowers at pennies each to make a living. It's a very traditional role and perfectly placed.Quote:

But that certainly makes no sense when you get to her house. It's easily the fanciest in the area.
And no, I don't really feel sad at the beginning of the game. The only thing I can remember getting emotionally upset about was the death. I don't really feel anything but nostalgia when I play the game nowadays, and even then, just barely.
Yeah, it's sad when you make Cloud a heartless bastard and refuse to buy a flower for only a Gil.
On seriousness, the plate easily tops any other beginning scene, emotionally.
never thought about it. but - NO. reminds me of Asia, now that i think of it. i only spent 2-3 years of my life there as an infant. too bad they don't have floating markets. Asians are able to get past the sadness of poverty through these fabulous life-styles...
