Truly a once in a lifetime gaming event. Only the reveal of HL3 is going to match this.
I'm seriously considering going on full blackout mode so when I play the game I can discover it all over again.

Cloud in Dissidia IS based on the Nomura design. Hell, it's basically full post-AC Cloud. The Amano alt is more "colorful" with white boots and lots of jewel chain hanging from his belt:Would I be right in thinking that Cloud from the new Dissidia is a better idea on how he might look in the remake?
Just make it look more like the Nomura design as opposed to Amano.
That being said, would love alternate costumes skins!

The language in the trailer made me think they are going to either alter/hardcore tie into the advent children and hopefully crisis core lore more. Not sure if that is super good or not to the fans.

Anyone else kinda wanna forget about this now since it'll likely be 2-3 years til we get it?
Being in hype mode for that long will kill me.

Spoiler central for a remake that everybody's ecstatic about of a game that's been out for 20 years?
Uh yeah, ok buddy...

That speech was just an extremely vague allegory about fans waiting for the remake since forever dressed up to sound like a plot point.

I'm in the minority but I like AC Cloud's costume over FFVII's. I always used the AC Cloud costume in Dissidia when I played him.
Now his characterization, on the other hand, in AC is pretty whack.

The narrator in the trailer was speaking to the public about the remake itself. It was not an in-game narration.

Man. Even if we got that remake it would be dated already.

I'm so excited, but... at the same time the fear of them making something half assed hurts...

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
Guys
HD Jenova scene in Shinra building
HD mutated guys in Nibelheim reactor during the flashback
HD undersea environment with Emerald Weapon there... lurking... in random spots
No lie, these parts of the game are going to be scary as shit
Come to think of it, the Cave of the Gi in Cosmo Canyon is pretty creepy too. Also, the ship you take from Junon to Costa del Sol. And the Temple of Ancients with the enemy on the wall.

Then the whole game makes no sense.

Well Nomura said to look forward to cross dressing Cloud so I think they have every intention on adding in all the wacky stuff.

Was definitely a once in a lifetime moment.
Had I known this was being announced, I would have pushed harder to get into E3 this year and actually convinced my boss to take off work. Wish you told me, Kagari :/. Can't even imagine what it was like at the actual presentation. There have been some neat announcements at the 2 E3s I got into which definitely led to a pretty cool experience when sitting in on the conferences, but nothing would have compared to that.

Did the remake announcement get the biggest crowd reaction at e3?

There are so many iconic and memorable areas in this game.
Please don't fuck this up, S-E.

No to mention the Shinra Mansion and the Train Graveyard.
Spooks ahead.(If they do it right)
Even as someone with little nostalgia for VII, there are so many moments I can't wait to see in HD.
The Flashback with Tifa's past. Her Cowboy hat is going to be hilarious.
The giant city cannon firing at the Weapon
Knights of the Round!
All of the Weapon Fights
The Basilisk impaled on the tree
Chocobo races
Meteor. Just in general
Barett's old dessert home town
The fight at night in the Shin-Ra building
Man, so much cool stuff that's going to be awesome rendered in HD.
Would I be right in thinking that Cloud from the new Dissidia is a better idea on how he might look in the remake?
Just make it look more like the Nomura design as opposed to Amano.
That is actually the older design of what they're going for in Dissidia. Now, they are using pre-FFVII Compilation Buster Sword design.
This is the original Buster Sword design, before the Compilation:
This design is being used in Dissidia.
So, they're staying more faithful to the original designs for the remake and seem to be pushing aside the Compilation, at least for this.

Don't forget about cloud grabbing Tifas HD panties !
Yea some things just aren't going to translate well in HD

I love this. I didn't play FF7 until about 5 years ago, yet I still can't wait to see the world of midgar fully realized in HD. It's a very interesting world, and I'm sure it's going to look amazing.
FF7 is such a weird thing. I'm interested to see how they handle things like finding random items. What is Limit Break item even going to look like? (assuming those are still earned in the same way). What actually happens when you play the right notes on Tifa's piano to get her final LB?
I hope enemies and monsters are visible on the field
Ppl still cares

If I remember correctly limit break items are manuals.
Like actual paper manuals.
They made renders for all items, you can see them at the wiki.

That looks more like what the Cloud design in the remake should aim for. Just needs green eyes, not blue.

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
I posted this in a thread that got locked, but my friend made a cool wallpaper.
Yeah, I totally forgot that. I wonder what that Piano puzzle is going to look like (again, just as an example). Does some small drawer slide out and you find a paper manual in there?
On another note, why the hell was a limit break manual sitting in there in the first place?

Speaking of eyes, I swear to god, stop listening to these fangirls and make Cloud's eyes glow like they should god dammit.
It's important.
D'awww I think I might be able to forgive you for all the wrong you did to Trico
This is exactly what they're going for I think.
It's not a coincidence that Nomura redrew Cloud for Dissidia and that's his updated look.
It's more faithful to original art than anything SE has done with FFVII since the original.
Supernova! How will that make sense? It better be there though in all it's ridiculousness.

best part of this trailer the fact the narration didn't consist of ffxiii-grade asscrap about falcie crystals and shit
maybe this will be not terrible

Supernova should take three times as long. I will enjoy every second of this 6 minute attack.

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
Unless they rewrite the story, then they absolutely have to do this as a few scenes rely on this fact. Which is good, it gives them incentive to stick to that part of the script. Just look at his portrait.
They have that murky, mako glow to them.
A nice touch I always loved is that they don't glow yet in his flashback portrait.
They're a deep, ocean blue. Post Nibelheim is when they become greenish blue and slightly ethereal looking.
Yep, pretty much. I was confused at first, but now it makes sense.

See SE. This is what fans ask for. Now get your ass to work on XII HD
Lol this just reminded me of the part where they narrate the flashback to Nibelhiem. You can go through Tifa's drawers to see her underwear and she gets made a Cloud. That part was hilarious.
