[Sephiroth]

I agree with you that Crisis Core could have had more special moments like with Sephiroth. Especially because the most important moment of Crisis Core, the CRISIS CORE, the moment when Sephiroth became the villain was only shown as DMW scene - the moment when he found and read Doctor Gast's false Documents about JENOVA being a Cetra so that he thought he would be a Cetra as well.

But there were many good Sephiroth and Zack moments. In the DMW as well. So Crisis Core is a very good prequel. It is a prequel with Zack as protagonist, not Sephiroth.

But another moment which I miss is the moment when you are sitting in the truck with Sephiroth and Zack is nervous because Sephiroth is his idol like Angeal is. The moment with the Dragon. This could have been a boss battle. Zack can't defeat the dragon, he gets hit by a Flamethrower and is pushed back in front of the truck.

FMV scene.

It is raining. You see Zack in front of the truck and the dragon. The back door of the truck gets opened and you see some black leather boots getting out on the ground, then it zooms up to the black leather coat and the lower part of Sephiroth's face. Sephiroth faces the Dragon. It attacks him but Sephiroth is not impressed. Sephiroth defeats the dragon. He helps Zack to stand up. They return to the truck and drive to Nibelheim.

End of FMV scene.

Such things would have been cool.

But even without them Crisis Core is good.

And of course things like the Genesis invasion are not mentioned. ShinRa does not even mentioned what really has happened during the Crisis Core. It is all because of ShinRa's lies. They lie and so you can explain why some things are not mentioned. I mean - Genesis and Angeal were claimed to be dead like ShinRa wrote in their newspaper. And they were not even close to being as popular and famous as Sephiroth was and still is - in the world of Final Fantasy VII itself.

EDIR@VeloZero: That just shows me you ignore the truth about what really happens in Final Fantasy VII and for you only your interpretation is important. But notice - the truth has already existed in Final Fantasy VII 1997 and interpretating an existing truth is nonsense, because it is how it is. But you don't understand that Final Fantasy VII itself already tells most of it. And if you say you like the "original Final Fantasy VII", then you like it with all its official truths and not with your interpretation.
