Thread: Sepiroth thoughts.

  1. #1

    Default Sepiroth thoughts.

    I played (and beat) FF7 about a month ago for the first time.
    I thought it was agreat game except for one part. Spiroth.
    People are always giving him great praise about how bad-ass he was.
    I felt diferently about it. I thought he was only thought he was slightly cool. NOTE: By slightly cool I meant a huge wussy. He looked like a nerd, he stabbed a GRIL from behind. I mean come on, he's a big wimp.

    omg! People like Sephiroth! He must be overrated!

    Ugh, god, okay. We get it.

    Personally, I thought Sephiroth was an okay villain. All you really need to cook one up these days is a fascinating weapon and inherent nihilism anyway.

    Are you kidding me, my 3 year old cousin, is a better villan then him. Sepiroth was a pansy obsessed over his mom (who was a giant freak BTW)

    No, I'm not kidding. That's my opinion. I suppose you have an opinion too, albeit a not very well-supported one.

    (SPOILER)Edit: And Jenova killed Aerith anyway. Although she was controlled by Sephiroth from a distance and took on his appearance.

    He stabbed a gril from behind! The poor cooking tool!
    So you'd prefer him to go up to her and cut off her head?
    Same result she dies. And by saying that are you implying that girls can't fight? Because I've seen a girl kick a guys ass!
    Also the post you posted to Zeromus has no relivence what so ever... and that obessed about his mom you must have paid very little attention to the story to not understand that part.

    Please think before you post (and spell check that would be nice).

    When I said that he stabbed a girl from behind, I meant that he had no class. And going into class, the only woman that Sepiroth cared for was his mutant mother. Which is kind of kreepy if you think about it.

    *Sigh* (My thoughts on Sephiroth-CORRECT SPELLING OF SEPHIROTH!)

    He killed her from behind for a reason so Cloud could see him do it, see it coming but be able to do nothing to stop him. By going from behind Cloud knew what he should have done but didn't do anything. His game plan was to mess with Cloud's head.

    And also his mutant mother remark...
    How many Villians cared about a girl? He wanted Jenova for power. He controls Jenova (which explains why you fight Jenova because Sephiroth needed someone to fight you so he sicks mother on you).

    Which, admittedly, Sephiroth was the one to really start that idea of how a villain should be made in gear.

    I do agree with you, though, that Sephiroth was an okay villain. I don't think he was a badass OR a wussy, I just basically thought he was....well, the antagonist. I don't know why, but that's the only way to really put it. He just kind of did his thing and you went after him for it.

    He's not my favorite villian either (Kuja's the best!) I just hate when we have people who are either fanboys or people like the one here who will just try and make things up on how horrible someone/thing is.

    I agree completely, but it's unstoppable; people will basically complain about anything given the chance, and there'll be people with such strong convictions that they'll post it anyway. NO offense to you who started this post, or anyone else who does it, but it IS exceedingly immature and, while I myself probably have fallen into that before, I try to limit myself from doing such.

    Back on topic:

    My favorite villain is probably obvious, but that's neither here nor there. While I never really thought Sephiroth was "cool", per se, there were two things I loved about him: Masamune and Super Nova. YOu have to admit, he had some pretty sweet gear and attacks....

    1 problem with Super Nova... he kind of kills himself :laugh:
    But if he's ever about to lose he knows he could just use Super Nova and destoy the Solar System!

    (SPOILER)Jenova is not Sephiroth's real mother.

    Sephiroth is a crazed maniac, who thinks he knows what's goin on, but he really doesn't. This is why I think he's a great villain, and a "badass". He was cold, he was cool about everything (except for some points with his maniacal laugh), and had a super long sword. He took a giant f***ing snaked and hung it on a giant f***king tree, or whatever the hell that was.

    Some people just disagree for the sake of "being different"... You all know he's badass and you all truly love him.

    Thank you Hysterian!

    (SPOILER)Actually, I think he probably KNEW Jenova wasn't his real mother. Gast would have had to have mentioned Lucrecia somewhere in all the books he read and the reports Gast had written that he went through. Sephiroth probably just ignored that and merely chose to view Jenova as his mother as justification to view himself as a higher being and to do what he had intended to do, as shoddy as his justification was.

    I take it you mean the Midgar Zolom, and he didn't hang it on a tree, he IMPALED that sucker. And while that was cool, what did that really say to the characters other than "Lookee, I can kill a monster like it's nobodies business! Though, maybe, I should've left it to get rid of you........oh well....". Sephiroth WAS cool to an extent, but I don't thing having merely killed a Zolom was that impressive. But like I said earlier, you have to love Masamune. <--What I feel for Masamune

    Off topic for 1 second... Kefka is clearly your favorite villian but I haven't been able to play the game. Is their any way to get FFVI without finding an old nintendo system and the orignal?
    I really wanna play this game!

    It'll be coming out to GBA in a few months, so your best bet would be to wait for that. Otherwise, you can try to find a copy for the PSX remake, but you may or may not be able to find it any longer, at least at retail stores.
