New Info: Epsiode 1's scenario is finished

[Rin Heartilly]

Are we going to be paying full game price for each episode? :S If so, there better be min 40hrs content per chapter/episode!

Also I am looking forward to seeing Jessie, Biggs and Wedge's characters fleshed out. I always felt bad for Jessie and her obvious crush on Cloud.

[Zanmato]

So they're not sure how many Episodes there will be...
Hmmmm... Is it a joke?! O.o
C'mon, SE... You can (and you should) do better!
Today's video games industry is sinking low, indeed...

I'm not sure how they're going to pull this off, but I'm intrigued to know more.

[Wolf Kanno]

Maybe SE will treat the Episodic content like Valve does for Half Life 2.

The only news that really concerns me is the return of the Advent Children's cast, namely Aerith. I've always maintained that Aerith's personality, at least in the original script, is more "flirty spunky chick with sass to spare" rather than "waif with no real independence".

Keep in mind that this comes from Famitsu, so it's possible they're only referring to the Japanese VA's.

Crisis Core really nailed Aerith's voice, though.


That's why we need that damn petition to bring Andrea Bowen back!

I don't really get the big deal with Aerith's VA is. She had like a handful of lines compared to the major players, hardly enough to judge her acting ability. I'm more annoyed that Cid is forever going to be a redneck hick southern accent when he should have been voiced by this old guy:

Vince is voiced by this guy Sorry, wrong guy XD

Mena Suvari also voiced Aerith in KH2 and it was just as bad. Really, Bowen was the only one that sounded in any way real.

Again, not a huge scene and not enough to really tell. To be fair, the VA work of most of the FF characters feel phoned in for the KH series. I didn't start liking Squall's VA until Dissidia. Not to mention that I hate Hedy Burress' portrayal of Yuna in every incarnation cause she always sounds like she's whispering so as not to offend the men, but was pretty surprised to learn she a rather good portrayal of ass kicking Agrias Oaks in War of the Lions.

Chances are, that whoever did Aerith's VA for her last speaking role will get the role.

Yeah, Agrias had a pretty phenomenal voice. It's amazing what good voice direction can do.

They gonna put the Sohth in the remake or what?

They'll probably make it some DLC/Pre-Order bulltrout.

[Fox]

They gonna put the Sohth in the remake or what?

How are they going to do that on a console where you can't open the disc tray while fighting the Midgar Zolom? Sure, they could put a throwback in with a different mechanic, but it won't be the same...

Definitely. He voice was kind but also fun and relateable.

Expanding the Midgar section may be pretty cool, but I feel like that's the only part of the game that could be substantially expanded. Hopefully the other episodes roughly follow the pace of the original game and they don't draw this out to be a 200 hour game.
