Oh, wow. Where did you see me agreeing with you, Highwind? I think you're seeing posts that aren't really there.
It's highly amusing to have you spell check a couple of flubs I made in my haste (keep in mind, I typed that up while preparing for my appointment), when this post exemplifies your poor comprehension or general inability to read:
Do I need to emphasize or bold it for you?
"So that would mean the entire Rocky analogy as a whole was a bust - yet you agreed with it."
Now to break it down: The "it" in my statement obviously refers to the Rocky Analogy. The very analogy that was used by Stang, not myself. In other words, you agreed with Stang and his use of the analogy, NOT ME. Do you get it now, or would you like an audio clip next?
A declarative statement that I clearly made in the very snippet you quoted. Hence why I said the analogy as a whole was invalid, because movies aren't games. Or can you seriously not gather that?Also, movies and games aren't the same. You need to learn the difference and fast.
Btw, "movies and games" aren't the same, period.
Aren't, you moron, aren't.
No, Highwind, you really need to reads posts better.
I was saying that Spyro was the only good game TO GET REMADE, did you get that? Spyro...was....the...only...great...example...of...a...remake...being...good!
There! That should help you dearly, shouldn't it?
LOL @ this. Look at your original disaster of a post:
"Also, classic movies are movies, not games. Think of Spyro the dragon (very first game and its plot) now think of the new Spyro game that has voice acting (Mr. Frodo if you may!). They changed the story, characters and more from Spyro's very first adventure.
Now, that isn't a very good contrast, now is it? Because when Spyro was remade, it was actually good. I didn't have to fear much before there wasn't anything to tie Spyro down to SE's hungry mouth (for milk...hmm, now I'm thirtsy for milk!)."
Now where in this do you clarify that Spyro stands alone as a good remake? Is it the part where you incorrectly dropped the word "contrast" again? The part where you ranted about how good of a remake it was? Or the part where you inserted some poorly structured crack about SE? Do not blame me for your failure to construct a clear point.
Thanks for correcting the blunder I made in a quickwrite. Now skim up and fix your grammatically ill sentences.(its CONCISE!)
There was no acting "high and mighty" there. That was me clarifying the obvious: We're not discussing a sequal in this thread. We're discussing a remake. So his movie sequal comparison was invalid.Because you said it as if he were stupid and you needed to throw it back in his face. Stop acting all high and mighty because we have opinions on a FFVII remake, you rabid fan.
It was meant to be a minor statement, yet you wanted to go and misconstrue my statements and start attacking me based on false interpretations of everything; well done.
Now, on to the shit that matters:
I've provided my evidence. ~Game changes into a Love traingle war between Cloud, Aerith and Tifa. Sephiroth comes back...oh wait, that's happened. They make a new character that was never in the old game called Genisis, oh wait! That already happened!
~ Read again.
LOL.. WTF is this? How is any of this evidence?
For starters, the "love triangle" part is speculation at its finest. There's no evidence of this happening in any spin off thus far, so how does this act as "evidence" that the "love triangle war" will happen in a remake? Do you know what a fallacy is? You've just made one.
Second, how the fuck would Sephiroth come back in a game he's already a central part of? And if this is supposed to be some lousy example as to some kind of bizzare twist they'd take, then it holds no water. FFVII had enough elements on its own, and they'd need nothing like that. Strike two, genius.
Third, Genesis was only implemented in Crisis Core because a plot revolving purely around the Nibelheim incident is too short to make up an entire game. This meant they needed more elements to the story, thus turning the Nibelheim disaster into an ending subplot and creating a whole new one to carry out the game. So why not make Sephiroth the antagonist throughout this game? Because he didn't become the enemy of SOLDIER/Shinra until Nibelheim. As a result, they had to throw in someone else to become the game's central villain in the plot leading up until that point; bring on Genesis.
But, guess what? FFVII is already a full-length game, with its own antagonists (Shinra, Sephiroth, WEAPONS), its own story, and its own elements - all ready to go! They don't need to improvise or expand anything in the story, because it doesn't have the problems that Crisis Core or AC were presented with. You're forgetting that this is the story that the other FF VII installments revolve around. The game is already lengthy and whole in itself. 0/3, troll.
Also, you've agreed with this said evidence, because you said:
"As for the Gackt and Genesis shit, I've already argued why that likely wouldn't interfere with an FFVII remake. I'd gladly copy and paste all that if need be."
LOL, how is this an example of me agreeing with you? Please point out to me how this supports what you've said? I said that these kind of retcons done in Crisis Core wouldn't interfere with an FFVII remake. And if that kind of retcon wouldn't interfere, that means they wouldn't be a problem for the remake. So how is that agreeing with you? Or does that confuse you? Is it the "wouldn't", or do I need to explain "interfere" to you?
I suggest that next time, you worry less about my typos, and more about the actual argument at hand. That is, if you'd like to keep from making an ass and an idiot of yourself.
All that being said, I understand full well that everyone is entitled to their own opinion - opinions that I'm not trying to take away from in the slightest. What bothers me is the unjustified filth that arises about how SE is sure to ruin the game. It's natural that I might ask a question or two concerning this. But when asked why such changes would come, no one provided a good answer. Argor was the first to mention the retcon of Genesis appearing at the Nibelheim incident, which is a change that would piss me off too, but I've already explained how and why that wouldn't have to show in FFVII. It's that explanation that I was referring to in the bit you quoted there, which is not an agreement to anything you said.
FFS, read and think before you type, plsthx.
