As someone who played the Xbox 360 version of Nier in like, 2011, a version of the game that probably barely sold 6 digit copies, it's hard to describe how wild these numbers are. (It's 7 mil sales for Automata and 1.5 mil for Replicant)

Hello, it's me. It's time for my latest crazy person rant about Final Fantasy VII 🧵 Multiple of Aerith's lines in VII Remake are exact copies of Zack's lines from Crisis Core. ...Only, the lines are changed in English to be different, so it's a lot harder to spot. For example:

Kengo Matsumoto designed the action on the fourth episode of Nier Automata. Importantly, he stuck around to process his board. This allows for heightened ambition that, in this case, manifested in sweeping CG background animation and a constantly involved camera.

We GOTTA stop with needing faves to be unproblematic. Sokka was sexist specifically to learn not to be. Isn’t it cool that writers have the ability to use a character’s flaws to teach lessons to the viewers? To say “this character is wrong.” I think that stuff is neat.
