...though I suppose that's mostly because each respective thing are achieving similar end results, but with different coding and techniques per hardware; so trying to "unify" these under-the-hood differences via a multi-platform engine might be harder than it seems (though I assumed not impossible)

All of these are fair points. My thinking was that I've seen different homebrew engines, romhacks and even official games for each system that seems to push what their respective hardware can do, some almost seeming to produce similar results to one another...

You think you could do a side-by-side comparison between N64, PS1 and Saturn? 'Cause I feel your multi-plaftform Fifth Gen 3D engine, when finished, would give us a good showcase of what each machine is truly capable of

All jokes aside, I really don't understand why the loc team is hesitant to make Barret just a little "selfish" via talking about Myrna as in the original Japanese

Even cringier and better lmfao

Would this be rendered as "good hello" in a potential relocalization lmao

I loved the part near the end of 8 where [CHARACTER SPOILER] said "This will be your Final Fantasy" and proceeded to Final Fantasy the main protags

Although your example is *not* *as* unhinged compared to other VG adverts I know of... well, I said it before and I'll say it again:

Honestly, a LOT of 90s to 2000s American (AND European) VG adverts are just flat-out unhinged. Cases in point:

Fair points.

Quite frankly, car commercials have more value than adverts for AI bullcrap

Even though that was a joke, I *kinda* hope that happens, since the localization for 8 kinda messes with some things regarding the main antagonist, among other things

While pretty dark a theory/headcanon, and one which sorta fits well with FFVII lore and the world, I must say I do kinda like how Remake handles the Hell House better.

With the Hell House in OG!FFVII, I once heard the argument/theory/headcanon that the Hell House, subtextually, was meant to be an evolved monster that preys on the slumdwellers without a roof over their heads, like some sorta giant Mimic.
