The title of Final Fantasy is usually disconnected from the rest of the series, but Final Fantasy 7 Remake Doubled in a heated debate with another item. This article contains a smaller Easter egg spoiler Final Fantasy 7 remake.
In 2003, "Final Fantasy" changed forever. The numbered core entry in Square Enix's most popular RPG series has never seen a direct sequel-but then "Final Fantasy 10-2" appeared. Yuna's continuing adventure marks the second sequel in the entire series' history (FF animation received a direct sequel in 1994). This is the first true sequel. In the West, this is the first "Final Fantasy" game released by the newly merged Square Enix, and the first "Final" to establish a narrative connection between the two "Final Fantasy" universes. fantasy".
You will see that "Final Fantasy 7" and "Final Fantasy 10" obviously occur in the same universe. In FF7 Remake, this is related to this small photo found in the background of an area of the game.
However, the connection is much more than that. As we said, it can be traced back to 2003.
Developer Yoshinori Kitase said: "Therefore, a little boy named Shinra appeared in Final Fantasy 10-2. As you might expect, there is a fan theory that he may have a connection with Shinra Company in Final Fantasy 7. ”FF10 subtitle production video. Kitase can be considered an authority on the subject. He directed the original FF7 and was the producer of FF10, the sequel and FF7 Remake.
"The script writer Mr. Nojima did not make any official statement about this. But as a" secret history ", he believes that X-2's Shinra may grow up, and that future generations may continue to create Shinra."
Final Fantasy 10-2 is this idea. One of the scenes is that Shinra carefully studied Farplane's data, Farplane is the soul of the dead in the extinction of FF10. He commented: "With a little work, we can extract energy in a usable form," he pointed out that doing so would "take several generations of time." Yuna, the heroine, replied on the nose: " One day, we can build a city full of light-a city that never sleeps! Imagine! "Hello, Mako Energy and Midgar.
In the legendary "Final Fantasy 10 Ultimania" book, FF10 and FF7 writer Kazushige Nojima gave a more detailed explanation, which shows that the FF7 event has been thousands of years ago, and even developed in the future generations of Simla After a way to travel from Spira, even on another planet, their world, for Gaia, is FF7. The time interval is well set to non-critical knowledge details, as is the narrative time interval between games, so no more detailed connections are needed. This is a Zelda timeline level connection.
Nonetheless, the subsequent development of the "Final Fantasy 7" series will still further imply this concept. The sequel movie "Final Fantasy 7: The Coming Child" loves the airship pilot Cid under the new car Shera. The background information shared in "Advent Children" and "Hell Detective" in 2006 shows that Sheila ’s engine may not even be the ship itself, but was discovered. This is an ancient technology-driven ancient unknown to the people of the FF7 world. The remains of civilization. Shera, named after Cid's wife, actually looks a lot like the FF10 airship in the world.
This brings us to the remastered version of Final Fantasy 7. In the next chapter of the game, the characters will find themselves in Shinra headquarters, the overall office in the heart of Midra. During your visit, you will be forced to walk through the Shinra Museum and visit the past relics throughout the vicious history of the power company.
Next to the placard labeled "Shinra Factory" in Japanese, there is an old monochrome photo … Hey, who is the first row? That mask looks familiar …
The most important thing is that the developers and writers of FF7, their replicas and FF10 games have become more cute and smart. They know that the narrative connection between the two games has been discussed and dissected by fans for many years, so here it is-the obvious plot of the story, the obvious wink, and the true situation of Nojima who led the rewriting of the script.
Surprisingly survived for so many years, is it really Shinra? A descendant wearing an Al Bhed mask passed down from generation to generation? Maybe this is just a coincidence. who knows? The fact that he slapped in the middle of the picture does indicate that this is important to Shinra's history. For fans, the fire that has been burning for 17 years is fascinating.
