Thread: more X and 7 connections...

  1. #1

    Default more X and 7 connections...

    dunno if this has been discussed but...
    given all the theorises about how the gullwings travelled from spir to gaia at some point thousannds of years ago
    this seems to me very similar to what genova did 2 thousnad years prior to the game and what sephiroth tries to do but gets his ass kicked
    anyone think its possible that genova coulda came from spira?
    possibly genova was a sinspawn or something?
    probably a lot of holes in this but i think it would be pretty cool if it was the case

    I've never heard of the theory.

    And due to the (little) information you've given, it seems -highly- unlikely.

    No, because in the original tech-demo, Tidus had BLACK HAIR!!!!!He obviously dyed it so he didn't look like a freak.

    Nojima, the scenario writer for both FFVII and FFX-2, has stated that he regards the latter as a kind of distant prequel to the former. That a character named Shinra becomes fascinated by the idea of harnessing life energy was deliberately intended as a connection to the Shin-Ra Electric Power Company and their Mako reactors.

    But, being that this is very dumb, most of us agree to ignore it.

    Pretty bad when an idea is so stupid that even when the actual scenario designer creates it, nobody believes it. Way to fail, Nomija.

    Kind of the gaming equivalent of Star Trek V.

    It's one thing to show a connection between worlds in two different games if thought has been put into integrating the design of the second world to reflect the first. A single name and a throwaway line aren't enough.

    I'd put in in the same category as Cloud's swords appearing in FFVIII and FFIX: a cute cameo.

    And FFTA.

    Totally agree. Minor cameo, nothing else.
    My friend Delzethin is currently running a GoFundMe account to pay for some extended medical troubles he's had. He's had chronic issues and lifetime troubles that have really crippled his career opportunities, and he's trying to get enough funding to get back to a stable medical situation. If you like his content, please support his GoFundMe, or even just contribute to his Patreon.

    He can really use a hand with this, and any support you can offer is appreciated.

    If they really wanted to link VII and X, they should have established that in the design of Spira.

    Not that linking them would've been such a great idea. You get to see most of the Planet in FFVII, so there's not many new areas to explore in the sequels. Linking games is easier if you simply explore a part of the world in each game. Like the Ivalice games or the Suikoden series.

    EDIT: Takara beat me to it.

    feck how could i forget ultima weapon
    im actualy traing my team in the deapsea deposit now haha
    they proabably didnt know they were gonna link the 2 games( 7 and 10) until they done x2 anyway so thats probs where the crappyness comes from

    If they really wanted to link VII and X, they should have established that in the design of Spira
    this is exactly why i believe ff8 and ff3 are set on the same planet
