No it doesn't. In topics about an existing truth subjectivity itself is completely useless. There are things where an own opinion is great. But if you say "No, gravity does not exist." your opinion is just wrong and nothing else.

And if Square decides this and that to be fact in Final Fantasy this and only this is the truth. But in topics about "What is Final Fantasy VII's Promised Land?" your opinion cannot be wrong because Square themselves said "We want the fans to have their own opinion about the Promised Land and what it really is." - for things like this they have not decided what fact is or not.

It is not the fan who decides what the story is. It is the creator of the story. The fan only tries to understand it. But that doesn't mean he/her is right. It is possible. But he/her doesn't have to be right.

It is not like I would write here "Rinoa is Ultimecia because she has white wings which shows her good side and Ultimecia has black wings which should show her dark side.". I write: "Square says: ...".


"My point is, they can throw anything out there, just like we can. That's why I like to think that it doesn't exist, like many people do. (That, and the thousands of movies and game prequels/sequels)."

You can think that, of course. However the difference is that you don't own Final Fantasy so what they say is right and yours is not as long as it differs from them.
