HISTORIC DAY FOR THIS FANGIRL

They are remaking FFVII! I mean, you know, I've actually made posts like this before (“ARE THEY? THEY ARE HINTING...!”) but it's always been like, another stupid sequel or side-game or dumb commercial or thing with Gagkt/Genesis in it. But this time it is for real and I HAVE LOST ALL MY CHILL.

WITNESS MY ANCIENT LOVE FOR THIS GAME. (And witness me totally whitewashing Sephiroth and even the Turks to a point, LOL. I'm kinda over it? Maybe?)

By the time the game comes out, shoot, my son will be old enough to understand that Mommy is excited over a game. He might even be in school. O_O (Leaving me with some time during the day to play it. :D ) It's so weird, the way that turns out.

Umm. I can't think of anything aside from FFVII today.

Haku had a seizure this morning, though. So that is uncool.

Getting to this late, but I'm actually not that happy that they're doing it. Not because I dislike FFVII or anything, but because given Square's recent direction I'm worried that they're going to go the wrong way. As in, they've discovered that their graphic realism makes them go all grim and gritty and try and do things in 'dark' sort of way, and I just think it's not going to go that well.

Basically, after the recent downward spiral I'm more worried that what people hope will be a second coming of FFVII will be a second coming of Advent Children, but possibly less coherent (as they remove everything that could lighten the mood and try to fill in the holes that opens in the plot).
