This is without a doubt the most batshit retarded story/plot I have seen in at least ten years in all type of...

Nah.

That'll be the second game, since Nomura/Nojima now has full "artistic" freedom for the second game.

It's gonna be a trainwreck and I'm gonna love the damage control.

this is exactly what it is. they have no idea how many games they are making, because that all is determined by how many people by this one. the final story is subject to change at any moment given how many people spend money on it

I don’t see how they will have full freedom with affecting the continuity of the game.

If Sephiroth is from the future and knows how things would unfold (and that’s why he’s trying to alter them) then why not just kill Cloud when he can. Or take Aeris’ holy materia. Or go and get the black materia now for himself and summon meteor.

It just doesn’t make sense, there’s no way to make sense of it.

It'd make more sense if the server poured it on the table.

It’d make more sense if the server poured it on the table but whilst doing so the critic had an altered dimensional existence attempt to stop the waiter doing so, only for him to be stopped by floating black table clothes.
