The revived all new FFVII riddle thread (of awesome)

[Loony BoB]

Godo fits all the clues, though. So it's really a double riddle.

Apart from Godo being a dude.

[Aerith's Knight]

Thanks Bubba.

Alright, time for some action!

Beaten and bloody,
No chance for respite.
Woe to the unprepared,
Prepare to fight!
Dedication or planning,
you'll need for this.
The story puts up a wall,
And you can't fall,
into the abyss.

Except Godo transforms into his version of Asura, queen of the Eidolons. :doublesmash:

AKRIDDLEEDIT: The wall reference makes me think of Demon's Gate, but I don't know how that fits the rest, specifically the abyss reference.

[metagloria]

Well AK's riddle acronymifies to BNWPDYTAI, so that's obviously related to the answer.

Gonna go with the Chocobo Farm ...or maybe the whirlwind maze where you have to run across and either time it right or battle, but you can't actually get knocked off.

I make my riddles too easy for you guys. He's got it.

Beaten and bloody,
Just after the fight with the dragon
No chance for respite.
Immediate fight after that 'boss' fight
Woe to the unprepared,
If you're not the at a high enough level to beat him, you're smurfed. No battles you can level on.
Prepare to fight!
Dedication or planning,
you'll need for this.
If you're underleveled, it requires some force of will all right.
The story puts up a wall,
Literal wall, Demon wall.
And you can't fall,
into the abyss.
You can't fall down the clock to escape. Not anymore.

The riddle is yours chionos!

[chionos]

Oh, well crap, wasn't ready to be all riddly.

I'm sure I'm going to make this about something that someone's already riddled recently, but oh well. If I were BoB, I'd make a master list of all the topics that have already been covered.

I'm going to make this real easy so we can get this back into someone else's hands.

Planted for a fallen memory
It's fair to say it's in the story
A shattered weapon lottery
And super sticky inventory
An image asks you to continue?
Final resting place a church
Or did it find another venue
In a business district perch
While its church is renovating
Twelve Gilgamesh is hating
From angel who is irritating
To the man precipitating.

[Aerith's Knight]

The flowers from the church in sector 7?

Planted for a fallen memory
The memory of Aertih's mom
It's fair to say it's in the story
A shattered weapon lottery
And super sticky inventory
The flower you have to give to tifa?
An image asks you to continue?
Aerith's ghost image later in the game?
Final resting place a church
We do see her there last, except for the ending
Or did it find another venue
In a business district perch
You could have bought a flower from Aerith that came from there.
While its church is renovating
Twelve Gilgamesh is hating
From angel who is irritating
To the man precipitating.
No idea.

[Loony BoB]

Buster Sword?

Planted for a fallen memory
I'm pretty sure it's planted in the ground at some point to commemorate Zach.
It's fair to say it's in the story
Well, definitely.
A shattered weapon lottery
Lottery because it seems to go from person to person, almost whoever wants it gets it. Also shattered perhaps due to how it splits up or something?
And super sticky inventory
Impossible to get rid of the Buster Sword from your inventory.
An image asks you to continue?
Is it on a Continue page somewhere? Dunno.
Final resting place a church
Probably at the end of Advent Children.
Or did it find another venue
In a business district perch
While its church is renovating
D:? Dunno.
Twelve Gilgamesh is hating
Gilgamesh has a Buster Sword in FFXII but it has a mark on it that means 'fake'.
From angel who is irritating
To the man precipitating.
D:? Dunno.

Actually, this line because it is the symbol in the coliseum for broken attack in the handicap reels.

It's the weapon on the New Game/Continue screen, aye.

It's in the weapon shop in the business district in FFIX. The church in that district is being renovated. I like to think that FFIX exists in FFVII's future and the church being renovated in the business district is actually sector 5 church. The sword got relocated to the weapon shop during renovation.
Twelve Gilgamesh is hating
Gilgamesh has a Buster Sword in FFXII but it has a mark on it that means 'fake'.

According to BC, before Zack, Angeal Hewley had the sword. I find Angeal irritating.
Cloud is the man precipitating. It's a pun. My bad.

Yep, gj BoB.

[Loony BoB]

Crap, that's the second time I've guessed Buster Sword and got it right. Now I have to prepare another riddle. What gives!? Lemme think on this.

And it's confirmed in Crisis Core that Angeal had the sword first, yeah. You get it from Angeal in the game.

[metagloria]

Chocobo Farm.

[Aerith's Knight]

Good job, BoB!

And man, I agree, Angeal was way annoying. But at least he gave us one of the most badass fight scenes in FF history, Angeal vs Sephiroth.

Man, that was awesome.

[Loony BoB]

Don't forget.

Remember.

Miniscule a task though it might be
Tiny by comparison, certainly

Later in the game but a little early
Done with the help of the absentee

Reality, the kind that you dare not dream
Midgar the solution, it would seem

So a journey begins for you and I
Farewell, this may be the final goodbye

Don't forget.

Remember.

Don't forget...

[Egami]

Hmmm...Cait Sith in the temple of the ancients? When he "sacrifices" himself to get the black materia?

[Loony BoB]

Nope.
