15. I find that part way more disturbing than comedic. Everything about that game is more disturbing than comedic... but it disturbs so good... ♥

24. I dunno, that muddle kid looks like Yuuno from Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha and it kind of freaks me out. LOL

45. Yeah, FMA fandom... FMA fandom. I fill with burning rage. Completely dropped out of the show and haven't touched the manga since.

51. LOL, I'm sorry... If "Raito" wouldn't have made me laugh, "Ratio" definitely would've. Sorry for your problems... but...

54. GOOD RANDOM MANGA DUDE YOU LOOK KIND OF COOL

59. So long as you just say "It doesn't appeal to me" and not give long-winded explanations as to why it's horrible and why this het pairing is so much better and SO CANON!!1!!!, I'm sure people won't lynch you. Just be civil. :)

64. Are you talking about what happened to Cloud in AC? Because so long as you don't have a money-hungry Japanese man controlling your brain, I'm sure you'll be fine. Changing yourself for the better, even if it's inspired by a game character, is never *ever* something you should hesitate about, nor be ashamed of. I say do it! >:[ And if you die, you can give your soldier honor and huge-ass sword to me, and I'll be your living legacy.

Not Secret!2: You're surprised? It's a CLAMP fandom. CLAMP fans are always psycho. Myself included. DDD':

(Anonymous) 2008-04-05 10:48 pm (UTC)(link)
No, I'm talking about what happened in Final Fantasy VII. When Cloud realized that he'd lost all memory of Zack's existence and replaced Zack with himself in his memories. He hadn't really done anything worthwhile. His confidence was an illusion. It had all been Zack.

[identity profile] hopelikefever.livejournal.com 2008-04-05 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Even so, that was because Cloud was chock-full of issues and was a living vegetable whose brain was only coming into focus when he saw Zack dead, which... you've demonstrated that you're not. So wondering if you're going to be thrown into the angsty abyss because you might lose your own sense of self because you want to change yourself to resemble someone you admire seems a bit silly, don't you think? :)

[identity profile] kinneas.livejournal.com 2008-04-05 10:50 pm (UTC)(link)
64. Yeah, uh, no. I don't mean this rudely, but have you played the original game?

Cause I mean, the ENTIRE POINT of it was that Cloud went nuts and spent the whole time imitating Zack's personality, lifestyle, even memories.

Christ, I hate Compilation focus.

[identity profile] hopelikefever.livejournal.com 2008-04-05 11:05 pm (UTC)(link)
Hey hey, I have played the original game, before the compilation, I'll have you know. I know the *entire focus* was that, but a) the OP doesn't have mako poisoning and isn't an impressionable, living vegetable and b) Cloud... got over it at the end. Which is why AC pissed me off, because it was a regression of character.

[identity profile] kinneas.livejournal.com 2008-04-06 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
I really didn't mean it rudely; I just thought it fairly obvious that was what she was talking about---but I can see how, when you put it that way, it might be a little confusing.

The handling of ALL angsty characters in post-game Compilation really pisses me off too. Cloud especially, but also Tifa and Vincent (god kill doc).

These characters all resolved their problems because the game wasn't MEANT to be followed by anything =\

[identity profile] hopelikefever.livejournal.com 2008-04-06 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
Heh, sorry for being a bit snippy, then. ^^; My back's been giving me grief from work and it's done *wonders* for my temper. But admittedly, it has been a while since I've played the original game, and some of the details are a bit hazy ("Tifa lied to Cloud to humor him and he's really Zack in his head but how did he know half of--*head explodes*).

LOL, I enjoy playing Dirge of Cerberus, but only because making fun of Vincent is my favorite thing to do. ♥ Without his little cape swishes, I have nothing. :'(!

Well, there's nothing wrong with making sequels... without butchering the characters. Nomura obviously didn't know the fine art of writing IC, haha.

[identity profile] kinneas.livejournal.com 2008-04-06 02:39 am (UTC)(link)
Oh yeah, I have no problem at all with sequels, just like... D:

I enjoy Dirge of Cerberus for its unintentional campiness and actually kind of fun (if retardedly basic) gameplay, but lordy lordy I can never take it seriously as a sequel.

8D Vincent is my baby. Such a melodramatic wanker with bad taste in practical clothing.

And oh no, don't worry about it :) I think I might have been a bit snippy too.

[identity profile] hopelikefever.livejournal.com 2008-04-06 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
Wow, I think that's probably the sexiest I've ever seen Vincent. Ever.

[identity profile] kinneas.livejournal.com 2008-04-06 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
I know, right? Boy needs a haircut and a sandwich.

And to not be designed by Tetsuya Nomura.

[identity profile] hopelikefever.livejournal.com 2008-04-06 03:18 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, that's a good prescription for any anime character, honestly. XDD

That man just needs to stop existing. Fanfictions are better than his games / spinoffs / wtfevers.

[identity profile] kinneas.livejournal.com 2008-04-06 04:43 am (UTC)(link)
I can enjoy him when he's written from a more realistic standpoint regarding emotions (ie no fucking melodrama) and subdued. Or, alternatively, those emotions are presented as serious flaws.

Which is to say, a bit out of character, but what can you do?

Also since when the fuck was he Dante Sparda? Last time I checked, Vincent was a pussy backrow character.
