Not-playable-character - Just An Npc In The World

I finally finished Rebirth yesterday and I have so many thoughts most are good but there is one big negative one.

I'll start with the bad. That ending. I was not happy with the ending, yes I'm upset we won't play with Aerith in the third game (I'll call it Reunion for ease) but more that it was such a cop out. She's both alive and dead?! Bruh... just pick a side. Instead of being elated or heartbroken I literally sat there saying "Huh??? Wait so is she dead or not??" It had no impact to me and I was frustrated instead of whatever emotion they wanted us to feel. I'm not even excited to play Reunion, I will to complete the story and see how they go with the world's uniting again thing Zack said but im not optimistic.

Now onto the good! Everything else was flawless, I loved the characterization throught the game. The banter, the growth, the fact that they are actually friends, and you see it! The combat was amazing, I loved seeing the synergy abilities and combos, it had me playing characters I never would to see the moves. I'm not sure how popular it is but I really liked the relationship system (I got red for my date funny enough lol I was really trying to not get aerith or tifa). The world also seems so alive, seeing the various cities and the destruction that Shinra brought but also the good they can do. The 7th infantry being a highlight for Shinra for me (my boys 😭😭😭) and the Turks oh how I love to hate them, they made them so much more evil in this than in the 1997 game where they were just kinda goofy failures (imo, it has been a while). Sephiroth brings out such a rage in me and I love it, I feel so inspired to bring him down.

Anyway it's a fantastic game 9/10 except for that ending.

So I wasn't expecting witch from mercury to be uhh...that. I thought it was gonna be fun and mechs not war crimes and pain. I just wanted to see girls flirting bro

So im watching Supergirl (because I wanted to see if supercorp was an exagration or not; its def not) and like ok im enjoying the show but Jesus how are the characters so smart but so dumb. Especially Lena, girly figured out Rhea by "Thank the gods" and that Alex is DEO but she can't get past a pair of glasses and a ponytail??? For real??? Like ok I get it's a plot thing but come on, it just makes no sense, especially when cult man figured it out. Also Kara has some pretty insane double standards ie. I can have secrets but you can't (so glad she got called out for that btw)

I am only on s3 ep 18 so maybe it changes (or gets worse)

Replaying DA:I in anticipation for Veilguard remembering that I cannot give Cassandra Pentaghast the love she deserves because I only play female characters.

(Also I find it funny that the odd number games have gender/race specific romance but the evens dont)

Yuuuhh this is some fire dialog (I knew i shouldn't have messed with mods, Ive had non stop issues)
