I think 7 has a much more relevant story that resonates with this cluster of generations though. I’ve never been a fan of it but I appreciated the remake and crisis core was a fun psp game and it was my only psp game.
The story though somehow takes government in bed with corporate greed, the climate change, and how greed and people in power continue to exploit and cause damage. Then they wrap it up in the perfect fantasy allegory that can translate through decades. It’s basically been post-Regan consequences in an escalating nutshell.
Along with that being touted as the best game simply because in 97 it was ground breaking. Like I don’t think if Mikcey mouse would be such a cultural icon if it came out 5 years ago instead of uh… wow damn nearly 100? Woah.
Oh shit yeah eta all that said yeah I really didn’t enjoy the original but found the remake fun and appreciated the plot line of that uh… episode? Season?
