Dirge of Cerberus Vincent survived?

[Dark Fantasy X]

Now we all know at the end of the game you see that vincent goes up against Omega while he is in Chao's form, now here is the question... how exactly do you think he survived that, because we see the purple life stream part go back down to the earth don't we so we aren't sure how exactly he survived. give me your ideas, and entertain me on this note, because this should be intersting...

I think we may never know how he survived. It's possibly due to the fact that he is immortal.

immortal? ahhh well yeah that might be the case but we won't know but we can just post our views on how he did thats the whole point of this thread... isnt' it?

I don't know if it's been revealed in the Reunion Files or some other place (I haven't read it) but my guess is that the Protomateria somehow managed to prevent Vincent being affected by the Lifestream. Either that, or Chaos made a shell of sorts around his body and it was Chaos that was destroyed, saving Vincent

 

[Dark Fantasy X]

hmmm but if chaos made the shell why would chaos want to save vincent? i thought chaos was the impure version of the life stream or that of omega, and also the protomateria isn't that just something that helps keep chaos under control and is one of the strongest materia as well as being one of the purest materia there is? or am i wrong?

 

[KradDiher]

Maybe he didn't really survive. I believe Shelke could see the death things in the Lifestream?

She was the only one contacting Vincent after the incident.

It said that Chaos returned to the lplanet after you complete the game. Chaos being a part of Vincent, I'm not entirely sure whether Chaos' essence returned to the planet, or whether his whole being (that including Vincent) was also annihilated in the impact of the explosion. I'd like to think Vincent survived though. Something's telling me they wouldn't just kill Vincent off like that.

Maybe there was something I missed after I beat Omega... I'll have to look back on that.

The Protomateria gives Vincent total control over Chaos. He's the conciousness, but in a different body, so Chaos wouldn't have any choice but to be the one who's destroyed
I like to think that Vincent survived though. I can't see SE killing Vincent off, at least nnot in that manner anyway

 

[Omnislasher483]

I don't see why Vincent would die. His Chaos form was greater than the impure Omega therefor Chaos would come out the victor.

 

[Dark Fantasy X]

hmmm your probably right seeing as how chaos is an impure form of the life stream and omega the pure, so if omega became impure, then it would be severly weakened

He also mentions, while in Lucrecia's cave, that it was because of her that he survived. Vincent did survive, he didn't die. It's a possibility that he survived because he is immortal, I'll go with Faith on that one. Unfortunately it hasn't been revealed in the Reunion Files. They came out before Dirge did, so sadly no, but I think if Square wanted Vincent dead, we'd all know it.

 

[Saix]

I don't know about the guy being immortal. Based off him enduring severe wounds early on in the game (Yuffie notes this within the transport vehicle), I'd say that Chaos gave unto Vincent immense durability. Evidently, Chaos didn't need to be 'there' to endure any kind of damage. So Vincent being able to withstand such an explosion is entirely feasible. He still survived Hojo's barbaric experiments, so I'd say those alone made him somewhat resilient.

 

[Serah]

Actually if I'm not mistaken, it does state that Vincent is practically immortal. How do you think he was able to sleep all of those years and never age? Also the experiements that were performed on him were done by Lucrecia and not Hojo. She was doing the experiements on him to save his life after he was shot.

Fair enough...

Compelling point. I had wondered. XD

Also the experiements that were performed on him were done by Lucrecia and not Hojo.

Oh? I was under the distinct impression that Vincent was Hojo's "failed experiment," and Lucrecia's own experiment was performed after Hojo had his way with him... or at least that's what Dirge of Cerberus indicates.

She was doing the experiements on him to save his life after he was shot.

The game shown Hojo leaning over Vincent after him being shot. As we can safely assume, performing his own experiments.

The experiment with Chaos was made after the original experiments made by Hojo. Or... so I recall. >.>

hmmmm i don't think that square wants vincent dead, i mean he is a really cool character, no one is arguing there, but immortality? i'm still not sure, i know where you are comming from with the sleeping and everything though i don't know, if he was immortal, then the game would be alot easier, i mean alot easier.... but having said that, how the hell did he sleep so long without ageing, maybe it wasn't actually that long, just a couple of years

 

[HolyDemon]

(my opinion) i believe that chaos is not a part of vincent but is connect to him by the strange experiments performed on him. i believe that he cannot die because is the legend himself he is chaos i will not be able to die unless the lifestream fails

 

[Dark Fantasy X]

but that would make him immortal, and vincent didn't sleep in that coffin for that long, he only got the chaos in him, when lucretia implanted it in him, and that other idiot scientist, hojo, as still alive, then you find out that hojo is still alive when you wake vicent valentine up in FFVII,

 

[HolyDemon]

but chaos is a part of the life steam for vincent to beable to hold that mostrosity is amazin yes hojo is alive but u can kinda figure who killed him

Actually yes he did. It had to of been right at around 30 years he slept in that coffin and he never aged. He was a Turk protecting Lucrecia 30 years earlier and he sentenced himself to sleep in that coffin after he "failed" Lucrecia. So it makes sense. It wasn't just a matter of a couple of years =/ (as you stated in a previous post) He slept for a VERY long time, 30 years. I believe that the experiements that were performed on him made him damn near immortal. If he weren't, sleeping or not, he still would have aged.

 

[HolyDemon]

true and if he was immortal along wit aging would the will to feed nobody can ignore that (im eating right now)
