General Discussion / What do you expect from FF Movies - SW

« on: 2001-07-31 08:23:00 »

Luckily that this movie is CGI. If that kind of story is filmed with real actors and real enviroments, this movie wil flop big-time ( I think it already is ).

General Discussion / Extract FF X Movies from PSX 2

« on: 2001-07-27 13:23:00 »

Hello all.

The PS2 emulator thing is sure a fake, but FFX on CD-R is not. Even I easily could copy FFX ( or any other PS2 games on DVD format ), into 2 or 3 CD-R discs, and play it on the console. All you need is NEO2 mod-chip ( or SBox ) and a Gameshark2.

General Discussion / Final Fantasy? Not every time...

Icewind Dale is excellent. Diablo 2 is also good ( plus FMVs that superior than any of Squarsoft offerings ). Baldur Gate ( and BG2 ) is good too. Black and White seems to be overrated. But PC have more better RPGs compared to consoles. Even Grandia 2 ( currently Dreamcast exclusive ) will come to PC   and not PS2.

But anyway, FF series is not exactly on top. There are many games out there that are much better that it.

Get a Vortex2 card then  . It's cheap, don't have the 32MB limitations for *sf2 or *arl, support DLS too and better digital sound quality than Live and philips AE.

DLS is not sound fonts. Maybe DLS2 is, but not exactly. The only cards that support *.sf2 files is Live! and any Vortex2 card ( only can load soundfonts with no reference samples ). Futhermore, AE soundcard isn't as good as GTXP, which rocks.

And actually I don't see anything wrong with it, unless of course if the seller don't honour your warranty. And the Anandtech have indicated that the chipset is aimed to high-end market, unlike others intergrated solutions. Actually I'm hoping that nVidia will make a new soundcard based from their South-bridge chipset. For sure it will kick ass!

If the built-in video card breaks down, then just plug-in another new GeForce3 and disable the on-board VGA - just like i815. So are with the built-in soundcard.

it has no AGP slot (50%chance)

Anandtech article say it will have AGP port just like i815.

 

it has 1-3 PCI slots (80%)

Asus board is Standard ATX, so 5 or 6 PCI is posiible.

 

its micro ATX format (90%)

Read above.

 

theres 2/3 ddr slots only if there aint any sdram (80%)

I think it's only DDR solution.

 

and im against built in components anyway it reduces the machines life due to the fact it becomes a bitch to upgrade, and u cant sell the sound card u upgraded cos its built in! if u know wot i mean.

The built-in soundcard look much better than Soundblaster Live or any other soundcard, at least on paper. The best features is to be hardware AC-3, so maybe PS2/X-Box true sound emulation is psoiible after all.

But the technology sure look good, especially the sound. I hear it done AC-3 on hardware, don't know if it's true or not. Also AGP 6x for the intergrated graphic ( yes you read it right, 6x ). The slot is still 4x though.

I'm sure the game have said that the Weapons are created for dealing with Jenova and getting lotsa lifestreams. And I don't remember that Planet won't heal before Jenova die completely. But it's been 2 years and maybe I forgot that one. My depressing ending not only come from viewing the ending movie, but also the  other hints here and there. Anyway yes, most of this argument is purely hypothetical only.
Red 13 is not human. It have 4 legs, a tail, sharp claws and fangs, red furs and don't age much too. It resemble much more like a tiger than a human to me. How about you?

On those Gast video tapes. Aeris' Mom said that planet created Weapon to destroy Jenova. But the planet never had to use the Weapons because the Ancients were able to seal Jenova in a sanctrum (whatever that is). Then the Ancients tried to help the Planet cure her wounds...she never really says how they did this....speculation can say self sacrafice or maybe creating life by farming and hard work (It seems the Anchient have an certain ability to create flowers from nothing: Aeris' home and the church are two examples of that)....I don't really know. She also said that the Planet asked them to leave that place, but the Ancients refused....then she start crying and the tape ends....

Yes, the Weapon mission is also to defeat Jenova. But contrary to what you have said, the Weapons were actually unleashed to the world to deal with Jenova and to get lifestreams to cure the impact of Jenova arrival. I never think that the planet wanted to store energy for another encounter with Jenova, the planet want to cure itself immediately, but the Ancients gets in the way. The Ancients do deal with the Jenova, but obviously the Weapons want to kill all living things ( Ancients included ) so Ancients don't have any choice but to seal the Weapons too.

Once the Weapons are released they just attack things that were harming the planet. Cloud's was a target because of the Jenova inside of him. Shinra Inc was targeted because of what they were doing to the lifestream. Sephiroth was protected under a Shield. They never attack mankind in general. It's almost like they were clearing the field so Holy would only need to concentrate on Meteor and Sephiroth. But then Cloud took care of Sephiroth, so the only thing left was Meteor.

I think this is wrong too. Cloud do have Jenova cells, but they are removed after the Reunion. So the Ultima Weapon attack to Mideel town is purely intentional, to create havoc and destruction, to finish the things that they should have done a long ago. Why then the Weapon is attacking Junon? Hojo, who have Jenova cells too, wasn't there. Maybe you want to say that Junon have a Mako reactor, but what are the reason of Weapon attack on Mideel? There's no Hojo and no Mako reactor there. Cloud's Jenova cells are removed from him after the Reunion, so the only best reason for it is that all the Weapons want is destruction.

 

Back to Aeris and Cloud's dream: Aeris has a direct conversation with Cloud. She basicly tells him that she is going to call on Holy and that she will take care of Sephiroth. I think she also says that someday we will look back at these moments, and laugh (a resurrection hint?)....so this still leads me to believe that Aeris used some sort of telepathy to contact Cloud. This just leads to my point that FF7 has very little consistantcy in it, which is what I would call a weak foundation. (Real nice story on the surface, but when you dig into it, you find that the reasons of "why?" get torn apart or left completly out....It's not all weak though, there are a few strong things that push the story over the edge, but it has a lot of weak spots that I just don't like. They could have done so much more with this story.)

I do really want to believe this one, but the existence of Sephiroth in it really baffles me. So if really Aeris want to communicate with Cloud via telepathy, then after Aeris dialogue, then should I say that Sephiroth use Aeris telepathy wavelength to tell Cloud that he want to kill Aeris? It all happened in one dream. For me, it's all a Sephiroth set-up, to give Cloud clues where they could find Aeris. Sephiroth, being the stronger being, had figured out that he can kill Aeris EVEN if Cloud is there. He even knows that he could use Cloud to kill Aeris too, so whatever Cloud is there or not, it doesn't matter to Sephiroth. If Aeris do want the others to find her at the Forgotten city, she logically will tell the others ( Tifa, Barret etc. ) that she want to go there. But she don't do it. So why on earth Aeris want to give Cloud her location when she didn't tell the other members of the party? Your shapeshifters theory ( I agree with that )come to mind; if Sephiroth could become like Tifa, why not Aeris? Another reason is that Forgotten city is located near the Northern crater. Sephiroth wants Cloud to participate in the Reunion, so telling Cloud to go on a would-be-futile mission to save Aeris from Sephiroth will serve his purpose futhrer. Sephiroth is one good villain, really good at manipulating Cloud's emotions, that's why he's one of the best vilains ever in FF series.

 

The thing about Holy. They were afraid that Holy would attack mankind, because of what Shinra did to the lifestream. But given the fact that Holy forced itself between Midgar and Meteor, I believe that it didn't have the intention of harming mankind, but more of an incline to protect mankind from themselves.

What happens to Aeris is never going to be told, so many clues point to a resurrection. But the idea of pure sacrafice, is too hard to let go. Sometime Happy ending don't make a good story, but everyone wants a happy ending to a fantasy. So....we are left with this.

For me, Holy wedged itself between Midgar and Meteor because the planet knows that itself is doomed if it don't do it ( example is Northern Crater ). Red 13 uncle had already indicated that Holy will fail to stop Meteor ( one of the reasons why I think the ending will be not so sweet ) because of Shinra action of mining Materia. Holy certainly don't wipe out humanity, that's for certain, but Meteor does. Maybe all the Holy have done is to reduce Meteor damage. But Meteor give the planet what tha planet wanted, lotsa lifestreams, thus with it the planet cure itself, and the result we can see 500 years later. The planet in its gradual process of healing is itself a good indication, the plants have already grown.

 

If the planet created the Weapons to destroy people to get more power, why is it still giving birth after death? And if it did want to get rid of humans then the theory of the human race dying at the end will probably be true, because I think it was Bugenhagen who said that Holy will destroy everything the Planet doesnt want. Am I right?

The Weapons purpose is to get enough lifestreams, that's all. After the planet is done with it curing process, then there's will be life all over again. It's not an overnight process, and it will take place slowly and gradually.

 

I guess it's Okay that the story is unconsistant. I wouldn't be here and probably no one else would be either if it was. However, since the FF7 story has a somewhat weak foundation to support it, I can't help to feel that it could have been so much better than it is now.

So to me, it doesn't blow FF9's story away. Although, I feel that it could have. If they had wrote a little more about the reasoning of why things happen in the story and kept it consistant throughout the story, I would have been more than deeply, satisfied...I would be ecstatic.

For me FF7 is still one of the best, FF9 couldn't even hold a candle to FF7. I'm not saying that FF7 is perfect either, but it know how to manipulate the players emotions, and you feel like you really in it. That don't happen it FF9. I've played FF9 only once, and I think I won't touch it again except a PC version is out ( which I think will not happen ). So while I'm waiting for FFX, I'll rather play Onimusha Warlord ( kick-ass ) and F1 2001 ( kick-ass ) and Legend Of Mana ( kick-ass for a old game ) and Serious Sam ( MEGA KICK-ASS: GAME OF THE YEAR ).

But I like it. But still....Aeris still had to know that she was actually talking to Cloud, that Cloud would remember when he woke up....so there is still a little hole. I would then have to believe that Aeris, was the one that made the connection to Cloud...not Sephiroth.

Did Aeris actually talking to Cloud? I don't know because the next time they meet, Sephiroth send her to death. But I'll still say that Sephiroth is the one that make the contact, as both of them have the cells and Sephiroth want Cloud to be at the Crater for reunion.

So when Tifa meets Cloud, what do you think those flashes of light were....he also gets a flash in the beginning of the game. And then later a flash back of Tifa leaning over her dead father. (There are a lot of others, but what's a little wierd is that the last Jenova (Death?), fought Cloud with the same red flash).

Ponder this for a second....what if Jenova got some of her/Cloud's responses from Zack's memories. And then combined them with Tifa's memories of Cloud. Perhapse a clone is really a clone in this story. A copy of a person, without any memories of it's own....and the Jenova cells are able to take memories of other people, and make them her own. The video tapes in Icicle Town, said that Jenova would show them dead friends and stuff like that....maybe this ability is a part of that.

I generally think it just a special effect, to spice things up. If you theory is true, that the flash is Jenova reading minds, why it happened when Tifa ask that particular question? And wrong answer with that too. But actually I think I agree with you with the flash thingy, only that the screw-up with Cloud wrong answer to Tifa.

Sephiroth is cutting Jenova head primarily because of what he have seen at the reactor and the underground library. Thinking he is an Ancient ( the last ), he goes to get his mother, then get off to continue what the Ancients have always wanted to do.

 

I hope you have the PC version....do me a favor and go to the movie directory on disk3...disk4 for the platinum version...and watch the End2.avi.

I don't have the PC version, only PSX. And I don't feel like to play it again just to see it again. Onimusha Warlord is just f**kin' great  

About your theory, Aeris is smiling because after her death at Disc 1, she still don't dissolve into the lifestream. She's doing that because after Sephiroth defeat, now she can be dissolved. I always have the assumption that the whole scene IS the HOLY being casted, which I remembered now, Red 13 uncle have said that even Holy stand no chance to stop Meteor. And another thing, the planet does want the humanity to be destroyed, by the evidence of the Weapons existence ( Emerald Weapons and the gang ).

Why the Northern Crater look like that way? Deserted and all stuff? It's because not that the planet wanted to save it energy for another forseerable danger. It's much more because that the Ancients have defeated the Weapons and seal them at the Crater ( Emerald and Ruby are tough customers ). The planet created the Weapons so they can create havoc and destruction, killing a lot of people ( or living things ), so their lifestreams could be used by the planet to repair the damage inflicted by Jenova arrival on the planet. But the Ancients foiled the planet plans, thus the crater looks ugly for a long time, even with high amount of lifestreams. This is not a theory whatsoever, the game tell you that. I don't agree with the fact that the planet storing it's energy for events like Meteor. The planet already decided to repair the damage done by Jenova centuries ago, only to be foiled by the Ancients.

Sephiroth had said something about Jenova able to read minds and that the Cloud's personally had come from Tifa's mind. (think he said something about Cloud being a combo of Jenova cells, Mako Energy, and Tifa's memories. what Sephiroth didn't know was that Cloud was really in Nib and the memories from Tifa were kinda correct...but not totally.) When Tifa finds Cloud there is a flash, can't remember if it's red or white....I think it was red. Cloud didn't know who Tifa was, everytime he would answer her, there was a flash of light. That light was Jenova telling the blank mind of Cloud what to say.......and the reason, was because Jenova was reading Tifa's memories.

Jenova reading Tifa memories? I think it's wrong. Remember that when Cloud first meet Tifa, Tifa ask Cloud "how long that we don't meet" or something to that effect. Then a flash, after that Cloud answer "5 years". But Tifa know that it's wrong, because 7 years is the correct answer. If Jenova doing its job right about that memory reading thing, that screw-up won't happen.

Hmmm, guess I answered myself (Actually I just remembered one of my conclusions)....guess Cloud acts like Zack, because Tifa wants to remember that it was Cloud that went to Nibelhem. It was just a coincidence that Cloud was there, but in a mask and Shinra uniform. (I haven't thought about this for a long time....I've forgot about some of my old theories  ) And since they are shapeshifters I guess Zacks's hairstyle kinda stuck....but with Cloud's hair color. (I have proof of this, remember #1 Sephiroth turns into Tifa).

Cloud acts like Zack because not that Tifa want to remember that Cloud, and not Zack who has accompanied Sephiroth to Nibel, but just to imitate Zack because he himself failed to attain his ambition to become a Soldier himself. From his friendship with Zack, Cloud is changing himself to become just like Zack, in appearance, sword playing tech and etc. So much the same even Aeris, notices it.

 

As far as who's in control....Sephiroth was somewhat normal, until he found Jenova....(

Jenova is always with him, except in the Nibel flashback. He seems normal to me.

 

As for the Dream....your forgetting that Tifa was in Cloud's mind, when she was knocked out on the Highwind (I need to replay the game for solid proof...cause I can't remember what happens in that sequence....I think Cloud walks away, and Tifa is talking to ghosts....I can't remember...but I think something important was said there....Oh, I think that's when we see Tifa's first meeting with Cloud. And the reasons why she was staying with him... There minds had to be connected, because of those red flashes of light.)

I'll rather say that it's vice versa; Cloud mind is entering Tifa mind, because the lifestream has began doing to Cloud what it have done to Sephiroth. In the lifestream ( where Tifa is talking to some Clouds ), that's where you can say their mind connected, primarily because of the lifestream itself.

In the dream with Aeris, they were talking directly to each other.... Your reaction just proves my point. The story is written just to leave questions....It's considered good, because of what is left behind, not because of what's in the storyline.

If they ( Cloud and Aeris ) were talking directly to each other, it doesn't mean that Sephiroth don't play anything on that dream. So do you want to say that Cloud and Sephiroth mind aren't connected? Remember, Cloud have Jenova cells too.

As far as the continent changing...you have to remember that the Lifestream was being made by killing the life around effected areas. The Crater was one of these areas, and Midgar was another, but Midgar was messed up because of man using up the energy...the Crater was void of life because the Planet was trying to heal itself. After the game, it shows the area around Midgar to be abundunt of life. Meaning that the Planet is completely healed.. As for the canyon thing. Maybe it isn't the Cosmo Canyon, but that valley that Cloud walks through to get to that Chocobo ranch. Lots can happen in 500 years...or maybe it was that mountain range that's around Midgar. Or maybe it's just another movie glitch.

If your argument is true, then it back up my theory of human race destruction then  . Remember that Red 13 uncle shows that the lifestream is the essence of all life, let it be humans or animals or plants. Then one of the ending movies shows that a lot of lifestreams coming out from ALL DIRECTIONS to try and prevent Meteor - with Cloud and party watching from Highwind. Whatever is succeeded or not, we don't know. But I'll say it failed, primarily because Red 13 uncle have pointed up to Cloud party that the amount of lifestreams on the planet has been greatly reduced because of artificial Materia procurement. So after Meteor impact, the Planet has to use the lifestreams to repair the damage done. The return of human lifestreams ( they die because the Meteor, and probably also of it after effect ), help the Planet to heal itself, and thus the result 500 years later. About continent changing, it's either a movie glitch or it really happened. I can't see Red 13 moving house to Kalm or the ridge near the place of Zack death because his parents graves ( and possibly his uncle too ) are on the canyon.

The #1 tattoo. I need to know if Sephiroth was branded by the #1 at birth, to satisfy another conclusion I came up with....I'd go into it, but I don't have time right now. They put a lot of emphasis into that there are only 12 clones, minus Red, Cloud and Zack.....but these 12 clones never hold any real importance in the game. And why was there a Black clone flying away from key spots...Anchient's temple is coming to mind, right now. My conclusion all hangs on that #1 tatto on Sephiroth. If he had it at birth, my conclusion is broken......

Actually I don't pay attention on whatever Sephiroth have a tattoo or not, because does it important? But I think he have it. A black clone from key spots? Maybe it Sephiroth himself, or it have controlled by Sephiroth to get there first from the information he gleaned from Could party.

FF8's story was weak, that's why people don't like it. That and the fact that lot's of people don't understand the mentality of a Loner.....I understand FF8, too well and it's a touching story, if you know what a "Loner" goes through. (All Loners think more than they speak...and we/they think way to much about stupid things.)

FF8 story is average, but the music is excellent. And also the characters and the CGI.

So....you still think Mankind dies, huh? there is also the symbolism of Birth at the end of that movie and the sound of children playing at the very, very end.

Aiyah, just look at the last movie ( after credits ). It shows that Red 13 and his son or whatever looking  at Midgar from the bloody canyon. Midgar look damaged etc, and I certainly heard the sound of children playing too. But try looking at the map of FF7 world. The canyon and Midgar is located far apart, even between them is a sea. My theory is that the lifestream failed to stop Meteor, and it hit Midgar and the planet and caused the earth face changed so radically it kills the whole humanity ( or almost ). And then Midgar lying just beside the canyon. The children sound could come from Red 13 descendants. You know, if Red 13 speaks, why his children can't?

As far as the Dreams....Cloud and Aeris connected when Aeris left the party. Tifa joined Cloud's mind when she was knocked out on the Highwind. and again when they fall in the lifestream. The question I have is the reason of why they connected....that magic was never acknowledged in the story. They just threw it in and never gave an explanation to it. (I don't like plots with holes in them)

In the first dream, I wouldn't say their mind is connected. Remember, Sephiroth is in it too. Sephiroth could easily controls Cloud as he is stronger than Cloud himself. Maybe he projected the image of Aeris going there to make Cloud go too.
About Tifa entering Clouds mind, I wouldn't say that either. Remember it happened after Cloud fall into the lifestream. Just like Sephiroth, he become stronger after going into the Lifestream ( but probably too much Cloud become a vegetable ). Just like Sephiroth, he maybe used the power to go into Tifa mind. And the one at the lifestream. They fused minds because of it. That's all.

 

Oh, and Aeris all of a sudden said she was tired and ran up the stairs.....I haven't played the game in a while. But I know I remember this for a reason. I think the other characters were puzzled by her reaction. It was a clue of something to come. Square never told us why she ran up the stairs. If I remember correctly (I may be wrong, or conviced myself. I hope I'm not just substituting Tifa's bubbles texts for Aeris'....minds can remember things wrongly, sometimes...) she was going to say something and then she said she was sleepy and ran up the stairs. (an incomplete bubble, text statement, I think?...I know Yuffie said something about it after Aeris ran up the stairs.) I believe Aeris was going to tell Cloud something and got scared or maybe embarassed. At first I thought she ran up those stairs, because of the upcoming "so called" date with Cloud, but later I realized that you can date Tifa, Yuffie or hang out with Barrett, under the right circumstances. So it had to be something, else. Something that she was too scared to tell Cloud about....now that I'm recalling, she also covered up Cloud's strange reaction at the Ancient's Temple, with no real explanation, of why she bothered. (the story could have been a lot more richer, if they gave us better or, at least, some explanations for stuff.)

Not all characters are puzzled by Aeris remarks, especially Yuffie and Tifa itself. After Aeris go to bed, isn't Tifa following shortly after, citing the same reason ( hope my RAM is working well ). Yuffie does say something about it, but just go to sleep like them. But not to an effect that there's something we don't know has happened. At most, maybe the only thing Aeris want to say is about Caith Sith.....

Who's in control, Jenova or Sephiroth.

Sephiroth. That's pretty obvious I'm suprised you're puzzled with it.

 

If the person Cloud is chasing is really Jenova, in the form of Sephiroth, why is it noted, in the story, that Jenova/Sephiroth has the tattoo #1. Does the real Sephiroth have that tattoo? They never told us...it would have been another solid clue. Why is it that they can fly? Even Cloud flys when he realizes he's part of Jenova. Also, apparently they can shapeshift. Why does Cloud look like Tifa's Cloud and also like Zack? Just too many missing puzzles in FF7, that they hint at, but never directly tell you. (Maybe that's why it's remembered as the best story of the FF games? The Mystery, and the torment....Guess I don't like unsolved mysteries. I like the torment, though.)

Sephiroth sure have the tattoo, but is that important? Unless of course his body is dissolved by the lifestream, which in Cloud case, didn't. Sephiroth can fly because he's powerful from Jenova power. Cloud can too for the same reason. Did Cloud fly again after that? No isn't it? Tifa's Cloud never look like Cloud, he delusional. Tifa is looking at Zack all the way. Only Cloud is thinking that he's Zack, a first-class Soldier while he's actually aren't. That explained Tifa reaction when Cloud tell the story about Sephiroth coming to Nibelheim.

They never told us why Aeris went to bed at the Golden (probably one of the biggest clues they left out of the story, it would explain, so much.). Why did the Aeris, Tifa and Cloud share dreams? What happened after the white light. What did Cloud mean by that he understood now, if they go to the promise land they will find Aeris. (Suicide, resurrection?)....

Did Aeris go to bed saying she was tired? Is there anything else hidden from her statement? Even I don't suspect anything amiss with it. About your dream, but sorry my RAM don't work very well, but which dream(s) that those three shared? It's pretty common for people to dream about someone(s) else.
About Cloud statement, it means ( at least what I've been thinking of ) that they will know the way how to resurrect Aeris when they arrive there. About the ending, I actually have no problems with it. It simply shows that the whole humanity is wiped out by Meteor. Simple as that. Not a good ending, but very unique.

I admit that FF7 seems to be unfinished ( remember Aeris grave, the unusable key items etc. ), but still it's much better than FF9 or FF8 and up to par with FF6, at least for me. As I've said before, there's no game else that kills one of the main characters mid-way to the game. FF9 story is just above average ( but not excellent ) for me. And above all, FF7 have Sephiroth. Kuja sucks hahaha  . And I don't like the music for FF9 either, it's the worst of all FF I've ever played, even FF8 have much better music than it.

In terms of storyline, I think FF 7 blow F 9 away easily, but maybe FF 9 have better gameplay and battle system.
