The way Barret's outfit in Gold Saucer manages to look completely ridiculous AND he's totally proud of it is perfect character writing. He's rocking that puffy vest and hook hand like he's the coolest guy...

I’m a buyer when those are being liquidated at 50% off due to lack of sales.

🐬 FF7 Rebirth really put a whole Wave Race game inside a JRPG and called it a day.

There are entire games built around mechanics like this dolphin mini-game. The scope of this game is wild.

🤔 Wait, did Rufus really just casually break a peace treaty like it's nothing?

There's definitely more to this story that we're not seeing. The political intrigue in FF7 runs so much deeper than people realize.

🥷 Yuffie going from sneaky thief to "elite ninja operative for the interim Wutai government" will never not be hilarious.

The whiplash from her formal introduction to immediately confessing she was hired to kill Rufus. 💀

Just discovered this innkeeper in FF7 Rebirth has one of the darkest backstories. He's not even in the original game but his cellular degradation storyline might connect to the black robed figures.

🎭 Comparing voice acting across FF7 Rebirth, FF16 & FF14

Each brings something different to the table in terms of authenticity and craft. Which Final Fantasy game do you think has the strongest vocal performances?

#finalfantasy #ff7rebirth #ff16 #ff14 #jrpg #voiceacting #gaming

🧬 When two swords intertwine like DNA strands in FF7 Rebirth... pure magic! The teamwork and coordination required makes every moment feel phenomenal. This is what peak JRPG combat looks like! ⚔️

#finalfantasy #ff7rebirth #sephiroth #jrpg #gaming #teamwork

🎭 The way Cloud moves and reacts during his mission with Sephiroth isn't random - every facial expression and gesture is deliberately crafted to show his internal conflict. The attention to detail in his character animation tells a story without words.

Why "Good Guy Gone Bad" Villains Hit Different 💔
Writing villains like Sephiroth is incredibly hard. You want people to understand their pain without excusing their actions.
