FINAL FANTASY VII

FF7, the big one, the FF that made nerds cry. It's weird to be done with the SNES era, but it's nice to go back to the third dimension. In the game you play as Cloud, a spiky-haired kid with a background as a member of SOLDIER, which as far as I can tell is some big nasty group of tough guys. After quitting you meet up with a resistance group called AVALANCHE, who seem to be trying to blow up some big reactors that are being used to suck out some kind of energy from the city.



Now that's a sword.


Woohoo, 3D. Battles seem very similar to the previous games. Your party of three can attack, defend, use magic, items, and something called limit breakers. LBs are extra powerful attacks that charge up as you kill enemies. Some LBs are simply extra powerful attacks, but a healing character may get an AOE healing spell.


That's Barret, he runs AVALANCHE. His character consists of pretty much every black stereotype ever.


Better camera angles this time around.


Setting the charge.


And making our way out.








One down, a bunch to go.


Cloud was supposed to rendezvous at the train, but was late and had to make a jump for it.





AVALANCHE hq, at the basement of some bar.


Magic seems to work with "materia". A character gets spells depending on the materia equipped, and the spell level increases with use (I think!)


Off to the next reactor and Cloud has started seeing things.
