Great world build, and done very fast. All obvious choices. Note only one Cloud/Sephiroth scene. I've actually grown to loathe those parts more as I grow up. Mechanically all three huge Cloud scenes (flashback/Reunion/Subconscious) can't be skipped (biggest flaw), making for a complete drag on an otherwise fast moving game.

Between this and Parasite Eve, I think Sakaguchi was trying to handwave spectacle and pseudoscience as some amazing thing or his hot new storytelling toy. When he focuses on down and dirty life stories and character interactions, FFVII shines. --- "NOW LET THE TORTURE BEGIN...Death by the Headcrusher!" - Megadeth - Headcrusher ...
