( EDIT: I'm aware Cid doesn't actually 'beat' Shera. It would be nice to see the discussion move away from that. Cheers. )



So, I'm currently playing through Final Fantasy 7 (I never got past disk 1 when I was a kid) and I'm finding it really interesting...



Basically, most of the dialogue dialogue in the game is fucking mental.



I've just met Cid, an engineer who wants to go into space, right? I meet his girlfriend, Shera.



Poor, poor, Shera.



I go back to their place. Cid storms through the door.



CID: <obscenity> Shera. What are you, blind!? We got gusts!! GET SOME TEA <obscenity>

SHERA: I...I'm sorry."



Cloud and the gang stand there, pretty awkwardly. "Really," he says, "don't mind us."



After essentially telling us to sit the fuck down and drink out tea, he shouts "Damn, I'm pissed!"



Aeries asks if he's always like this. She's consumed by self-doubt. "It's my fault," she says. "I ruined his dream."



Flashback to Cid watching his wife work away at the rocket, telling her to get her ass in gear and that she "works like a snail."



Everything's getting prepared for the big rocket launch and Cid's ego-fuelled space exploration adventure. His wife couldn't get something finished in time. She's still working away while he's attempting to take off. Obviously, he's wondering what she's still doing down there, and tells her she's obviously going to be killed if she's in this area while the ship takes off.



Her response is pretty much "I get how much you're into this. I'm cool about dying"



But hey, guess who pushed the emergency engine shut down switch and aborted the mission, saving her life in the process? Good guy Cid.



And now for some reason, he's justified in treating and talking to his wife like shit?



Am I meant to like this character? Is this going to be PC for the FF7 remake? Is the vast majority of FF7 going to be suitable for a modern day audience or are they going to have to make a HUGE amount of editing to the story and text?
