(NPC) 43. Donald J. Corneo

What a piece of work this guy is. Everyone's favorite sleazeball is back for Rebirth, despite Wutai not appearing in this game. Putting Dio and the Don in a rivalry together for the naming rights to the Gold Saucer actually makes a heckuva lot of sense, so kudos to the writers. There's a certain poetry to the Dio and the Don as funhouse mirror images of each other: both rules of their distinct pleasure districts. Both The Gold Saucer and Wall Market are places to unwind, to wonder, to be transported and to pursue dreams. They couldn't be more different, and yet they're the same.

Corneo himself doesn't actually do a heckuva lot in this one though, which made me wonder if his Japanese VA passed away or something.

42 . Wedge, aka Badger from Breaking Bad

The game does manage to resolve some dangling plot threads from Remake, including the fate of poor old Wedge. Yes friends, he does ultimately go splat after all. Which does kind of make us wonder what the heck all that escaping fate stuff was all about anyway. I'm pretty sure they're going to continue to pursue this stuff in the third game, and that this is simply the Empire Strikes Back low-point of the whole thing. But also it's quite possible that Wedge is just dead as a doornail for good this time.

I enjoyed his flashback scenes and in general I like Wedge a lot! The sandwich stuff is weird though. So in the NIbelheim flashback, Cloud can eat a weirdly detailed gigantic sandwich in one bite that says "tastes of home." This seems like it'll be important for when you go back to Nibelheim later, but it isn't. We also see Wedge eating the same weird gigantic sandwiches in the flashback. I know they're just weird bad reused assets but they're so glaringly weird. Anyway.

Hint for minigame 26. Cloud? Cloud!? CLOOOOUUUDDD!?
