Benjamin! Aerith’s wards are crucial! Arcane Ward doubles spell use, Radiant ward increases the fire rate of her base attack and keeps spells from being interrupted. What’s more, her triangle ability warps her to the ward. So here’s what you do: pop both wards on top of one another. Then use Aerith’s Bodyguard Synergy ability (skill?) to pull teammates to her, tank some damage, and get the enemy focussed on them, away from the wards. Then, hit the warp and flank the enemy with double spell damage. It’s a bit of a hassle to set up but it’s super powerful and feels great to execute. Loved Aerith in Remake but the tweaks to her abilities here makes her an irreplaceable party member. PS. The elemental abilities are cool but yeah, they’re much weaker than spells AND they don’t give synergy points. Worth prioritising spells if you wanna get those big attacks in.
@Harri_James7 ай бұрын
I've used her wards occasionally but didn't realise you could stack them on top of each other! That's really interesting. The few times I used them I did feel they were better than Remake. I agree on the elemental abilities vs spells except when it comes to Yuffie's elemental ninjutsu. Especially of you use doppelganger as you can then double the damage.

Surprised to see such a negative response to the minigames… maybe it’s just the Mario Party fan in me, but I love basically all the minigames, especially the shooting gallery and soccer ones.

It definitely is and 95% of them are great, but after a while it does hurt the pacing of the main narrative if you try to do them all before moving on from chapters. Im speaking as someone who's beaten the game (no spoilers dont worry, and it by no means ruined the game overall for me) Tbh I recommend doing as much of it that feels natural, then going back to complete it either in later chapters or in Chapter Select after beating the game (its the same format as FF7 Remake)

To build up ATB for Aerith, you NEED to use Radiant Ward. Give Aerith First Strike materia so she has has enough ATB to set Radiant Ward at the start of combat. Then just attack from within the ward; it basically triples both damage output and ATB gain. You can also stack wards together, so you can put an Arcane and ATB ward within the Radiant Ward. Her triangle ability is Ward Shift which lets her teleport back to wards. This is crucial because she moves around the battlefield very slowly and has an incredibly poor dodge.

To add to this too, you can have multiple wards active and can either stack them or separate them. I tend to prefer the former since having both the radiant ward and arcane ward up helps you not only generate ATB much faster with the improved standard attack, it also makes it so your dual cast is un-interruptable.

I should have written in about this, but I tried to be clever in the Queen’s Blood tournament and it did not work out for me at all. I realized I could end my game against Red XIII in a perfect tie, so I went ahead and called the game there. Never done that in a match before; did you know that you ALWAYS LOSE a tie? I guess it was asking for too much when I wanted to see if there was a bespoke, alternate, sharing-the-crown type of cutscene with Red. Anyway, when I saw the cutscene was clearly treating the game as a loss for me (hilarious to see Red gloating about his skills given the circumstances, btw) I just reloaded a save. I had to replay two of the matches but it was worth it for the glory 😎😎

Seriously, for a deep dive they often overlook extremely obvious plot points. For example, saying Cloud is autistic is hilarious. Cloud suffers from PTSD and is basically a 16 yr old stuck in a 21 yr olds body.. he doesn’t have autism guys.. Also complaining about his personality, he doesn’t open up until major events later in the OG story.. I dunno why they keep complaining about this, when the story hasn’t reached that moment yet for Cloud.

If they wrote in character dialogue from the party, instead of just Chadley talking at you, that would have improved it by orders of magnitude. Even if the story wouldn't progressing, you'd get character development. Instead it's just hours of nothing.

A tip for getting Aerith ATB faster is to have someone like Tifa/Yuffie who gains it quickly, and use magnify+haste. Also the free elemental abilities don’t give synergy pips, so I never use them. The auto ability materia uses the abilities you have set as shortcuts for each character, so Aerith will Radiant Ward and Arcane ward if set. Aerith doesn’t need a ward up for her “Ward shift” ability to work either. It’s just a little teleport unless you have a ward up, then the range is greatly increased.

Regarding Elmyra knowing Cloud's name: Zacks timeline where he's alive didn't break off and become it's own thing until after Avalanche's attack on Shinra HQ. Remember the end of Remake was all that happening, THEN the big light burst that Zack sees over Midgar happens and presumably the Whispers save his life from there. The events of Remake still all happened exactly 1: 1 up until that point in this world. That's why the news broadcasts at the very start of the game are all referencing the destruction and attributing the "weather warfare" to Avalanche. She literally had basically just seen him the day before when they left to go stop the plate drop and try to retrieve Aerith. Ascension is 100% just a fancier upgraded version of ClimHazard. The final animation of the combo is exactly the thrust then jump up that Climhazard was. Kind of annoying they complain about Cloud not getting enough of his "iconic moves" while just a few minutes later joking around about how they're avoiding the weapon upgrade system and folios cause they don't wanna bother taking the time to do it (it takes maybe a couple minutes each time btw, its not a lot.) Like, maybe if you engaged with the systems in a game you might find the things you're looking for. This trend among gaming journalists lately of refusing to fully engage with a games' systems and then complaining that the game isn't "deep" enough or have things they expect is getting really annoying. The stuff is all there, it's just understandably rewards for levelling SP and unlocking them in Folios or maxing weapons to earn their abilities. If you don't want spoilers for unlocks don't read further but just to showcase how much of his OG kit we end up having in this game: Braver is a weapon skill, Cross-slash is a Limit, Blade Beam is a weapon skill now called Blade Burst, Climhazard is the end of the combo string of Ascension which is a limit, Finishing Touch is his Level 3 Limit unlocked through Folios. Literally the only ones we don't have so far are Meteorain and Omnislash which are reasonably going to be saved for Part 3.
@Harri_James7 ай бұрын
In regards Ben's question if Cloud has autism, as an autistic person, I do think he could be interpreted that way. He seems to struggle sonewhat with social cues, expressing emotions and can comes across quite blunt in his communication sometimes. I never considered it before and I think that's because a lot of the traits he exhibits could be put down to things from his past that we haven't seen yet but (mentioning something we find out in Rebirth in chapter 9 so spoiler warning, though if you’ve played the original it's in that too) we know he struggled to make friends as child, even though be wanted to be friends with Tifa which suggests he's always had some problems socialising. However, the character who exhibits the most autistic traits to me is actually Yuffie. It's common to have an intense, obssesive interest in one thing for autistic people, in her case materia. She seems to struggle to read social cues, both in Intermission and Rebirth she doesnt notice people's lack of interest in response to her intro speech. Autistic people often think literally and can struggle with metaphors or similar as a result, in Intermission when she's told that she 'reeks of trouble' she sniffs herself,and she doesn't realise Cloud is being sarcastic in Costa del Sol, as you mentioned. Autistic people also tend to have poor propioception which could explain why Yuffie can be quite clumsy at times. I feel like a lot of people wouldn’t see Yuffie that way (though I did a quick google and I'm not the only one with this interpretation), because she's not the stereotypical version of autism we usually get in the media but I definitely feel like Yuffie is more similar to a lot of the autistic people I know, including myself, than a lot of canon autistic characters we see. That said I dont think. either Cloud or Yuffie are intentionally autism-coded. I had actually intended to put this in the google doc next time round (well a shorter version to fit the character limit) but I have other things I want to mention in regards the upcoming chapters so I thought I'd drop it here instead. Since they only asked about Cloud I don't know if the guys would find this interesting but thought it was worth mentioning on the off chance they do.

Didnt the crew say last time that people were being too literal with Red's voice in Aerith's room in Under Junon? What changed? Just curious

They talk about why people think it's Red's voice in the additional spoilerchat at the end of the audio podcast version of the deepest dive and they like the general theory as to why people think its Red. I think here they forget that they discussed that in the spoiler chat and not the main podcast

In Remake, it felt like Cloud and Aerith was pushed as the canon romance. That first game really centers around her and you're set up to be her bodyguard. And then the "date" scene with her happens, and she tells him to not fall in love her no matter what. That feels like it works narratively as the conclusion of that, and then they can push Tifa for Rebirth.

Not everyone gets that cene though, it's one of three possible scenes. If you do mostly Tifa's side quests you get a scene with Tifa. If you do mostly Aerith's sidequests you get Aerith. If you did an equal amount of their side quests the, deciding factor is then which one you wake up first after Corneo dumps you in the sawyers. Or if you skip all the sidequests, do very few (I think the cut of its 3 or less but I forget) you get a scene with Barret.

I'm playing the original FF7 on Switch right now. I recently completed the ship ride where everyone is disguised as either soldiers or sailors; I walked up on the deck of the ship and noticed one soldier dancing around like a lunatic. I thought maybe he was sea sick or just hadn't quite found his sea legs yet; however, after talking to him, I realized it was Red XIII trying his best to walk like a human on his two hind legs. I then noticed that you can still see his tail as well, and I wondered just how he was fooling anyone. In summary, Big Red is the man.

I may be missing something but that sephiroth card looks like one of the worst in the game. How often are you going to have a 3 peg space in the middle lane but your opponent has cards above and below it!? Personally I like to have my 3 peg cards (midgar dsormer /dio) in the first 2 columns. They buff like crazy.

it's a bad card. i dropped it after a few rounds noticing the up and down red box is not happening often enough

I haven't tried it, but I assume you'd combine it with other cards that destroy cards, like the grenadier. And then combine it with cards that gain power when other cards are enfeebled or destroyed. Definitely not the worst in the game. Maybe I'll toy around with a deck just to try something new. Like everyone else on the podcast, I've just been sticking to cards that increase your own power. It's such an easy deck to build and win with, so I haven't had to try anything else.
