I Think This Game Had A Negative Impact

[Oddball19]

This is going to sound really bizzare and in a way I hope somebody else out there is the same because this is driving me nuts.
I recently bought the OST for FFVII, and when playing Aeris theme it bought a tear to my eye.
This may not sound THAT odd because it's quite an emotional piece of music, but now any music I listen to from the game makes me feel all emotional because it makes me remember what for me was the greatest game and story ever told. I can't explain why it makes me sad but it does.
Also what I find odd is that I played this game when it came out on the Playstation and I have always thought about it occasionally and I cant explain the feeling when I see a bit of FMV from the game or something it's just so odd. Considering Im 20 years old I cant help but feel I may need some kind of help.

If anyone has any suggestions/ideas please help because Im at a real loss here!! I don't WANT to forget about the game completely so thats not an option. MY first ever FFVII dream actually happened lastn ight as well which is what prompted me to find an active FF forum and share it, basically I was talking to Aeries and saying how she should stay on Earth because of people missing her but she was saying how bored she was and as she was going back up to heaven I started screaming rude words at her and callingh er selfish because she wouldn't stay.

1. It's a dream. Don't read too much into it.

2. Down to heaven. Remember, the lifestream is heaven for the Cetra.

It's just a game. I'm sorry it impacted you so badly?

[TheSpoonyBard]

My thoughts exactly, Reles - it's just a game. Crying and dreaming about it is a bit of an overreaction, in my opinion. If you get upset whenever you hear the music, I'd suggest you stop listening. Try something new for a while.

Thanks for the feedback. I just reminded myself it was a game and something clicked. Listened to the same music and just thought this is cool. Cant belive it was something so simple Thanks a lot guys/gals I really appreciate it.

The music is supposed to make you feel emtional,thats what Nobuo intended it to do,am sure evry1 has obsessed about a game sooner ot later and right now its just your turn,dont get to deep into it the obsession will be over soon

Hey dont worry about it...

When you start having nocturnal emissions about Aeris, THEN get some real help buddy.

o my gosh the same thing happens to me the music makes me sad i cry almost every time i here it.

In front of other people I don't really show my real emotions. Even if I hear the OST of ANY FF game, I just get the chilly, creepy, feeling. Hell I always get goosbumps. But after Listening to it 100 times now, I'm used to it. And Nobuo's music is really emotional, don't get obssessed or else you'll want to become like Aeris and be 'one with the planet'. :rolleyes2

Where do you sign up for that help, and what if your nocturnal emmisions are about Heidegger?

I've gotten emotional over a select few theme songs, Aeris's was one of them (cuz it does bring back memories of her death in the game). I wouldnt feel bad, the song is meant to do that to the person hearing it.

[Lost Number]

People get very emotional over books and music, and poetry.
So why not games?
FF7 was one of the most emotional games.
The music, the FMV, it can still bring a tear to my eye. And im a bit of a hardman.

i believe this game was the darkest FF with the most depressing feel to it , but the music suited the game and the aeris tune when its used when she dies is great for the time its played. the music and overall feel of the game is dark but seems as it suits the game i dont mind.its not my favourite FF but as long as its not negative for no reason i think its fine.

[therealquigmaster]

Hmm. That music always makes me happy for some reason
