    Pretty sure that the "1/35 Soldier" item is referring to a scale miniature, similar to wargaming miniatures, Gundam models, and even model vehicles & trains. So 1/35 scale would mean that the item is 1 35th the size of a regular person.

    Honestly, not so strange when you think about it. Mimics are a staple of D&D and its ilk (Final Fantasy included). The M.O. of these monsters is that they disguise themselves as desirable inanimate objects to prey on greedy adventurers or desperate folk. And in the undercity of Midgar where poverty and homelessness go completely unchecked, what more desirable object for a Mimic to disguise themselves as, than a comfy-looking house? In the Remake, it's even classified as Artificial Life, which heavily implies that Hojo created it, probably so he could unleash it in the slums and see what happens, for science.

I got the game in winter 1997, as an 11 year old, going through a lot and it became an escape for me during my adolescence. I had a really tough life from 10-16 and I honestly feel like the game really saved my life. If this makes me sound strange then so be it,"but you gotta understand that there ain't no gettin' offa this train we're on, till we get to the end of the line".

    I don't understand why people find the ending of FF7 vague or cryptic. Aerith was in the lifestream. Sephiroth was in there, too, preventing Holy from stopping Meteor. After exorcizing Sephiroth and allowing Holy to be cast, Aerith uses the lifestream to empower it and stop Meteor. That's why we see her one final time, the same way we saw her the first time. Aerith, in death, saved the world. It's a bookend, but I never felt like it was implying there was a timeloop or a vision of the future. Especially since we got sequels that show Meteorfall's aftermath.

    I'm shocked that you haven't brought up the "Who killed Aerith: Sephiroth or Jenova," debate. There are videos that cover this because, in the Japanese version, there is a different text that implies that the person going around in all of the encounters is Jenova using an image of Sephiroth (which is why you fight her every single time.) It doesn't make sense that Sephiroth would randomly have pieces of Jenova, he's in the creator when you finally find him, and he died in Nibel. It also makes sense that Jenova wouldn't know who Cloud is, because only Sephiroth met Cloud back then and she calls him a puppet/doll because he has Jenova cells inside of him.

    I always assumed most summons are Cetra. Materia is Mako, Mako is lifeforce, and lifeforce contains the memories of those in it. Hence why it enables you to cast spells and use abilities without learning the hard way. Aside from a few oddballs like Choco/mog, (chocobos are special and Moogles do have some status in universe given Cait Sith. Extinct perhaps?) and Typoon (direct FFvi reference, Ultros' pet thingy), almost all are human-adjacent (Titan, Shiva, Ramuh, Odin, Hades, KotR, etc.) or powerful creatures like dragons (bahamut, neo/zero/etc.) Or other mako-infused beings (Condor becoming Phoenix) The human ones, then, are either humans or Cetra, the latter far more likely

    It was a pretty common practice for Square to come out with "International Versions" of their games. Basically, since their games were made in Japan, they were released in Japan before anywhere else. But when they were released internationally, they'd fix bugs and maybe even add some new content while they waited for localizers to do their thing. So since the Japanese market would miss out on these improvements, they'd rerelease the game as an "International" version in Japan, and add even more content.

    I love watching these videos as soon as they drop, and you put a great amount of effort into them which should not go unnoticed. And I hope that this does not come off rude but the way you pronounce some words really takes away from the immersion to an extent. I never knew compilation could be pronounced incorrectly as well as some names that I have heard over the course of some videos. Honestly though, keep up the good work and I'm pretty sure I will watch all future videos regardless of pronunciation!

    Development began in 1994, originally for the Super Famicom. After delays and technical difficulties from experimenting on several real-time rendering platforms, Square moved production to pre-rendered video, necessitating the huge capacity of the CD-ROM format and therefore departing Nintendo for the PlayStation. Veteran Final Fantasy staff returned, including series creator and producer Hironobu Sakaguchi, director Yoshinori Kitase, and composer Nobuo Uematsu. The game is the first in the series to use full motion video and 3D computer graphics, superimposing real-time 3D character models over pre-rendered CGI backgrounds. Final Fantasy VII introduced more widespread science fiction elements and a more realistic presentation, while the gameplay systems remained largely similar to previous entries, with the addition of new elements such as Materia, Limit Breaks, and new minigames. The staff of more than 100 had a combined development and marketing budget of around $80 million.

    People who don't like the remake because of the "changes to the storyline." What it did was paint the idea that Aerith and Sephiroth know the outcome of the original game. Sephiroth wants to change it so that he is successful. Aerith wants to change it so she survives. Both want to alter the original which is why the Whispers/Arbiters are present. They are trying to preserve the original timeline.

    Vincent/Yuffie would have not been in the ending cutscene as they were extra characters and they weren't going to do a new render for 2 side characters (Also size constraints on CD's would have been an issue) Aerith Dialogue was from the issue with they were not sure about killing her off so there was abit of contention as it was a first. 1/35th is a scale used for models/minutres etc. The remake is heavily hinted as being a continuation of the FFVII compedium not an alternate timeline (Somehow) by the staff at square enix.

    1/35 Soldiers are a reference to the models popular in Japan and other places, such as Gundam plastic kits. What they mean is 1/35th size of the original object. So let's say the average man is 180cm tall; in this case, the toy soldier would be ~5.14cm.

    I had read somewhere that Vincent was immortal due to the "Chaos" in him. As at the end of the game Dirge of Cerberus, Vincent loses the Chaos, he becomes mortal again. But even 500 years later, Nanaki comes back to Midgar to continue the pact he made with Vincent, even if Vincent is not alive anymore (which is still very beautiful in itself). But then, as the authors never really talked about Vincent's immortality after "On the Way to a Smile", the question of "if Vincent becomes mortal again or not?" is still debated. I hope they can end this debate in the remakes by giving us a definitive answer.

    "On the Way to a Smile" takes place between OG FF7 and Advent Children, and Dirge of Cerberus takes place after Advent Children. I've also read that Chaos made Vincent immortal, so once Chaos returned to the planet at the end Dirge of Cerberus, Vincent should theoretically have lost his immortality. But like you said, they haven't really referenced his immortality much outside of "On the Way to a Smile". Hopefully they do give us a definitive answer in Remake.
