Yeah ff7r cloud is close to ff7 cloud, and I like that a lot

When I finally actually played FF7 as an adult, in 2014, I was surprised at how likeable and non-emo he was. He got flanderised insanely in other stuff and I'm glad they recentred him in Remake.

I did the bee thing and then pretty much smoked the Gilgamesh summons first try. One attempt to feel out Odin/Alex a bit but that was all. Odin didn't even get off a Zantetsuken.

I guess I'll start the hard mode playthrough soon.

Outer Wilds
Metal Gear Solid 2
Sonic 2
XIII

The first three mostly represent different eras of my life. Adult, adolescent, kid. XIII obviously stands alone due to other reasons. Outer Wilds and MGS2 are my two favourite games, but Sonic 2 and XIII would be lower down in the top 10, so it's not necessarily "my 4 favorite games". MGS3 and RE4 felt a bit redundant in this. Tough to exclude Pokemon though, either RBY (childhood) or BW (university).

I really liked TotA in general. The design, the gravity stuff (could have done more with it tbh), the character stuff. It was only really some of the story stuff that happened after escaping that bothered me. Convoluted and choked the life out of the game's most famous moment

Completing the protorelic quest completely. After doing this, fight each region's mini-boss (like the Quetzacoatl) on Hard Mode so you can make use of the rewards from the protorelic.

But that looked like late-game stuff to me. Like, Kujata and Phoenix beat the fuck out of me

Couple of things. Do you need to finish a chapter for any progress to be saved
E.g. if I go polish off a sidequest or something do I then have to see the chapter through to the end for my game to register that I finished it? Like if I do that bee quest in Nibelheim do I then need to finish the whole chapter to keep the exp? I seem to remember that being a thing in remake or something like that.

Anywhere good for AP farming? Same place with the bees?
Also, to finish the game in hard mode, I take it it's ok to just replay each chapter separately and complete them one at a time (so I can hypothetically do chapter 1 in hard mode and then like do another chapter on easy and I'll never need to replay C1 again in hard mode).

Final boss had two cool moments for me personally

Beat Bahamut by summoning my own Bahamut
Beat final form of Sephiroth with Ascension -> Aertih limit move that fills Cloud's limit -> Ascension a second time. Felt very final and climactic

I feel like I actually felt the impact more since they teased her being saved so much

There was some amount of ambiguity over whether she was dead and by the time it was beyond doubt I was done. Kind of a shame.

Anyway, might go for the Plat. I'm level 50 or so. How would you guys recommend I proceed?

Did every quest available except UPA and the final Photorelic quests (I felt underlevelled), and I guess I didn't bother with hard mode Condor or Gambits.

I read about a strat including the Nibel bees to farm exp. Is it worth powering up to level 70 or so before doing hard mode?

Also!

Good to finally read the spoiler topic (took me a minute to find it)

Well the final boss went on for fucking ever but I loved it - each phase ruled. That said, I only died once (to Jenova) then powered through the rest first try, though not without some hairy moments

That said they blunted Aerith's death to the point of almost non-impact, and that's really fuckin dumb.

I think I'm near the end of the temple; at the part where we're seeing magic holograms of the war between the cetra and the humans and fighting those annoying, tanky adamantoises

Rude raising a fist to Barret pointing straight up and saying "are you ready for this" got the biggest laugh out of me in the game (next to Cloud dismissing Yuffie with his "cool").

It rules yes.

But there is a chest at the start of the Aerith section that I can't get. It's across a gap at the bottom of a tower I put back together using the lifestream.

Do I get that later or is there a way to get it?
