also so everyone knows my personal stance on this: Space Ghost is absolutely an [as] show and I have no idea why so many people were adamant on considering at a CN show in that Rushmore topic

But I am nothing but a man of the people so I will stand by your community rule

100%. I absolutely adore this whole section.

God I loved the middle chunk of the game sooooo much ughhhhhhhhhhhh.

I basically agree with the "Beagle Universe" reading but I don't think Cloud is "confused." It's beyond reason to think no one would've said "Hey Cloud, Aerith is actually dead" and that wouldn't have been talked through. I think Cloud is aware with what's going on. He's emotionally stunted and under the influence of Jenova/Sephiroth cells but he's not completely divorced from reality.

I think Aerith has to "die" so that they can actually do the rest of FF7 without major changes. But I think that we'll definitely save her at the end of part 3 somehow.

Most of the narrative for FF7 has been the same as the original so I don't think they want to completely change the outline for part 3.

So yeah be prepared for some time travel or something.

I used the Aeroga build that's going around.

I swapped out Enemy Skill for Revive which I don't think I actually used on my winning run, but did bail me out on a couple of earlier runs.

You are squishy, but with Genji Gloves and Magic Focus'd Aerogas with Faith on you blow enemies up very quickly while sustaining yourself so the runs become fast. With a bit of practice rounds 1-8 will soon become largely busywork (except occasionally 4 can get lucky bursts on you), round 9 is fairly repeatable once you figure out the right tempo to adopt (Hold ATB for the wings, then one Aerora each to blow them up, then get your licks in). I think if you get good enough at fight 5 you could probably ditch the Ele-Fire & Ice for stat boosts or w/e - didn't feel like I needed it once I got slick at handling him.

I just realized there's a walled off snowboard minigame in Gold Saucer. We so coming back in part 3 for more minigame madness.

I would prefer the Honeybee dance battle to be the final boss fight unironically.

starting to panic a little because I just spent (wasted) the past 5 hours trying to get through a brutal challenge with nothing to show for it. Only made it to the last round one time... and it's not even the toughest of the challenges!!!

Kind of panicking a little because I never had anywhere near this trouble in Remake and my team is maxed out, my materia loadout is optimal, feels like the only solution is to git gud. not great, not great at all.

Well, going to give it another dozen or two cracks tomorrow and if I can't then it'll wait until after I've completed all other platinum requirements I guess.
