Wow, you are right. Not that i didn't believe you but i really wanted to know how far they would go again with the Lighting praise.

And then there's Auron's daughter out of nowhere
I'm pretty sure it's not canon for X, just a story that fits in the narrative for a game (in this case mobius), but not reverse for the original source.
It's no different like it was when:
-Lightning in FFXIV before LR:FF13 events
-Auron in KH2 after events of FFX events
-Twewy-cast in KH DDD during Twewy-events
- Shantotto & Samurai lady of XI in XIV
- and more

Because we needed more daddy issues.

Well I mean Lightning IS the goddess of the FF universe so...
lol
Something about following X after the initial game is like a test to see how much you can tolerate before you throw your hands up in the air and say "Screw this."
I knew about the "Will" story plot that basically set up the whole Auron's daughter thing, Tidus and Yuna breaking up, and the return of Sin (which at the time pissed me off a good sum since it either made no sense at all or basically took everything that happened in X and X-2 and threw it under the bus). Honestly, I had no idea that there was this stupid nonsense about Tidus kicking a bomb and casually blowing his ass up part of the story either. And now we are going to get some "insight" about this time between games?
I'm sorry, but at this point, it feels like every time they try to expand on the world of X, the more it feels like the creators were ashamed of it and they want people to feel the same by doing these things.

X-2>X though
Gdi SE just let stories be and make something new.

They lost me on that audio drama when they brought NTR for a backstory and Tidus and Yuna breakung up for some stupid reason after all that they went through in X.

To be fair, that was the only part that made sense, and that I kinda liked. Yuna is breaking up with Tidus because she's getting ready to go on another pilgrimage and defeat Sin again, and she doesn't want Tidus to stop her/be aware of it.

Oh! I must have read a bad translation then cause I completely forgot about that. I just remembered the break up. For some reason I thought they left on bad terms cause some new guy also had a crush on Yuna.
Still loathe the NTR though.

Yet, I still bet they're going to do a FFX-3. I just feel like they're gonna do it.

I dunno, they abandoned whatever Genesis-centric thing the Compilation of FF7 was leading up to.

Was the Compilation of Final Fantasy VII ever....finished?
I remember reading somewhere that they had some big plans for the Compilation after Crisis Core but I don't know if anything came out of it. I also remember them talking about bringing Before Crisis to a handheld like the DS.

I think the Compilation thus far had gotten a pretty lukewarm reception, so they shelved it.
What did they expect, though? A PS2 game, a PSP game, and a bunch of loose, hard-to-find OVAs and other random media and mobile games...
I imagine it'll either be completely ignored for VII:R, or they'll go full steam into it and expand the shit out of the narrative.
Tidus having his head violently and randomly blown off as Yuna watches in horror has got to the funniest fucking thing in video games ever. Like holy shit I thought it was just some dumb meme but it's actually real?
It doesn't get better than this.
Seriously
Oh my god lol

...That's...too vague to actually confirm or assuage my fears...
That could just as much mean "We're going to ignore the Compilation" as it could "We're going to do the Compilation plot points 'right' this time."

Why not just make an X-3, with a hundred dresspheres. There.
Try to convince fans that anything other than him blinking out of existence happened, and you're going to fuck it up and piss off the fans.
If they absolutely have to do something, make it just a cutscene of all the moments of his life while floating through the Lifestream or whatever followed by a 2001-style trippy sequence... then a smiling Yuna and cut to black. Celebrate his character without creating anything new and stupid, like the type of shit everyone here is rightly posting

So the Compilation is like the former Star Wars EU to Square Enix now. It's there, but it isn't canon to the new timeline I guess?

This thread has had me in tears and my sides hurt, haven't laughed this much at a Gaf thread for a long time, the super shocking and disbelief reactions at the tidus head explosion and thinking it was just a meme (LOLOL!) and the subsequent uncovering of the truth was hilarious. The spoilers about möbius and the batshit crazy story had me guffawing like mad
It's even funnier that this shit about ffx was actually written, edited and published. Like holy shit.

This game sure seems to have a lot of voice acting for limited events. I've never really gotten around to playing it at all. Maybe if they ever finish the story.
Did he? I remember him saying something along the lines of the old compilation not necessarily jiving with the remake, but that was it. That could mean a lot of things. A lot of the compilation plot could be included in the remake for example. This would make the other games feel like retreads.
Nope. It ended on a cliff hanger with Dirge of Cerberus. Years ago, before he was on FFXV, Tabata said he wanted his next game to be a Before Crisis remake for 3DS. Never happened obviously.

This is where the series went down for me. I want a self contained story.
Crisis core sold 3.1 Millions
Advent Children 4.47 millions
Before crisis 1.6 Millions
Dirge of cerberus 1.24 millions
With the exception of dirge of cerberus all of them sold Very well.

Whoa that was Tabata?! Back when I was younger all I registered in my mind was that Square Enix=Nomura. It's crazy to think that I've read Tabata's name before but completely forgot about it the next day.
It's a shame though. I really wanted more Cissnei. I also wanted that remake since I wanted to play Before Crisis. Guess Cissnei will remain in the prequels and side games...
