Hey everyone!

About three days ago I finished Final Fantasy VII (OG) for the very first time. It was actually my first Final Fantasy game ever, and I honestly didn’t expect to love it as much as I did. It completely blew me away and has easily become one of the best games I’ve ever played.

Two days ago I started playing the original PSP version of Crisis Core (I wanted to experience the original instead of Reunion first), and I just finished it today.

Tonight I’m finally starting FF7 Remake. I’ve actually owned it for almost half a year but kept putting it off because I wanted to play the original first. I also already ordered Rebirth, which should arrive tomorrow.

Before I jump into those games, though, I have a few questions about the original story.

Please don’t spoil anything from Remake or Rebirth. I’ve heard that those games aren’t just simple remakes and that they do some things differently, so I’d really like to understand the OG story first.

The biggest thing I’m confused about is the ending of Crisis Core.

Zack sacrifices himself while fighting all the Shinra infantry soldiers. Before he dies, he tells Cloud to carry on his legacy, gives him the Buster Sword, and Cloud clearly hears everything Zack says. Then Zack dies, and the ending transitions into the opening scene of FF7 OG, which I thought was an awesome callback.

But here’s what confuses me:

How does Cloud end up with his fractured identity?

At the end of Crisis Core he doesn’t seem like someone who’s completely lost his mind. He knows Zack, he hears Zack’s final words, and as far as I can tell, he should still know who he is.

So how does he go from that to believing he’s a SOLDIER First Class, mixing Zack’s memories with his own, and basically becoming the Cloud we meet at the beginning of FF7 OG?

Was there some kind of mental breakdown after Zack died? Did I miss an explanation somewhere? Or is this something that’s only implied?

Another thing I’m wondering about is how Cloud actually ends up joining Avalanche.

I remember Tifa finding him at the train station in Midgar in the OG, and then he ends up working as a mercenary for Avalanche. But I don’t really remember if the game explained what happened between Zack’s death and that moment, or how much time passed. Did I miss that explanation?

And finally, I’m still a little confused about the whole “Sephiroth Clone” thing.

Throughout FF7 OG, Cloud keeps being called a Sephiroth Clone. But unless I completely misunderstood something, Cloud isn’t literally a clone at all, right?

Isn’t he just a normal guy from Nibelheim who survived the Nibelheim Incident, got captured by Hojo, and was experimented on with Mako and Jenova cells?

Zack also went through Hojo’s experiments, but he doesn’t seem to be affected in the same way. So why does Cloud’s mind completely fall apart while Zack stays mentally intact?

And what exactly does the Mako infusion and the Jenova cells actually do to a person? I feel like I understood most of the story, but this part still confuses me.

Sorry for the long post! I absolutely loved both FF7 OG and Crisis Core, and before I dive into Remake tonight, I just want to make sure I fully understand what happened in the original story.

Thanks in advance, and again, please no spoilers for Remake or Rebirth!

Hey everyone,
I started playing the original Final Fantasy VII (1997) for the first time about a week ago. I already own the Remake, but I wanted to play the OG first before jumping into it.
I’m currently at Costa del Sol, and I’m a bit confused about the Materia system. I’ve watched a few beginner tips videos already, but I still can’t figure out why my Materia are not leveling up.
Every single Materia I have is still at 1 star, even though I’ve been playing for around 10+ hours and have been in a lot of battles. I also already have a weapon for Cloud with Double Growth, so I thought that would help them level faster, but nothing seems to change.
I’ve seen other people’s screenshots where their Materia already have 3, 4, or even 5 stars, and mine are all still stuck at the beginning.
I thought Materia would just level up naturally over time and that it would happen pretty quickly, but after all these fights I’m still at 1 star on everything.
Am I missing something obvious? Is there a mechanic I don’t understand, or am I just not earning enough AP yet?
Thanks!

Hey everyone, I want to put out a serious warning about a specific user on this s

There is a Reddit user who goes by **Resident\_Fishing\_985**. If you look through this sub and many others, he seems to reply to almost every single person asking for an account, commenting that he sent them a private DM. **He is a scammer.**

I had been talking to him for a week, and we agreed that I would buy his account for €100. Three days ago, I sent him the first half of the money. He actually let me play on the account for those three days while I was getting the rest of the money ready. Today, about two hours ago, I sent him the second half. He blocked me instantly right after.

After he blocked me, I checked up on things and realized that during the exact same days we were making our deal, he was still commenting on tons of other people's posts trying to lure them into his DMs.

Please try to report him and DO NOT trust him under any circumstances. He is a liar. His Reddit username is **Resident\_Fishing\_985**. Please stay safe out there, I just really don't want this to happen to anyone else.

Hey everyone, I really need your help right now. I’m completely breaking down.

For the past few days, I’ve been talking to this 25-year-old guy from France because I wanted to buy his fn account. We agreed on everything, and he honestly seemed 100% legit. We had normal conversations, so I trusted him. We agreed on €100 in total. Three days ago, I paid him the first half (€50). Right after, he actually gave me the login data, but I wasn't allowed to change the email or password yet.

I've been playing on the account for the last three days (at least it still works on Fortnite for now), but I was still waiting on the email access.
Today, I paid him the remaining half. He told me, "Yeah, okay, all good, I'm sending the info right now." And then, out of nowhere, he completely disappeared. He blocked me on both Discord and Reddit.

I know I shouldn’t have been so stupid. I will NEVER do anything like this ever again. But he felt so genuine, and I truly thought he was being serious. He completely scammed me. I literally sold my last two PS5 games just to afford the second half of the payment. And now he’s just screwing over teenagers. It’s absolutely insane and sick.

I know you’re not even supposed to buy accounts. The problem is, my brother is moving out soon and taking his PS5 with him. My main account is stuck on his console because he lost the access to the original email. We tried everything with Epic Games support, but we couldn't fix it. That's why I just wanted to buy an account for myself, so I could finally have one to play on. And now I got ripped off.

Can you guys please try to mass-report him on Reddit and Discord? I know it was dumb of me to trust him, but an adult taking advantage of a teenager like this is just disgusting. I just want him to face some consequences.

\*\*His Information:\*\*

\*\*Reddit Username:\*\* Resident\\\_Fishing\\\_985 (He has no profile picture)

\*\*Current Discord Username:\*\* colemodelz

\*\*Original Discord Name (visible in history):\*\* LXRD#2011

\*\*Discord Profile Picture:\*\* Demon Slayer anime PFP

Please, I know I messed up, but can anyone help me get this guy banned or reported so he stops doing this to others?

Hey everyone,

I’m looking for a Fortnite mate to play with. I started playing again after taking a break for around half a year to a year, and I’m really enjoying the game again. I’d say I’m pretty good or at least above average.

I mostly play Ranked, usually solo, and I’m currently Diamond. I haven’t really had much time to push higher yet because of school — I could usually only play maybe one or two rounds a day. But now I’m finally done with school and have holidays, so I’m looking for someone to grind with.

Ideally, I’d like to find someone German (I’m 16), but I’m also fine with people who are around my age, like 15–18. I’d just prefer not to play with people who are much older (like 22+). English is also okay! I can speak English pretty well, but sometimes I still struggle to find the right words when I have to react quickly while playing.

Most of the time I’d like to play Ranked, but I’m also down for some chill Duo games, Creative maps, or just messing around for fun.

I used to have a mate I played with almost every day, but he doesn’t really play anymore. I recently came back and honestly the game feels way better again this season — it reminds me more of the older Chapter 3/Chapter 4 feeling.

If you’re interested, just DM me :)
I’m mainly looking for someone who actually wants to play regularly and improve together.

Hey everyone,

I have been thinking about writing this for a while but I was not really sure how to put it into words.

I have been a big movie fan since I was a kid. Back in elementary school I used to say I wanted to become a director one day. That was always kind of my dream.

I am 17 now and I still love movies a lot, especially horror. But over the years I also started to feel like becoming a director is probably not realistic for me. I am from Germany and it often feels like most of the filmmakers I admire are from other countries, and I do not really see that many German directors or movies in the genres I like.

Because of that I kind of pushed the idea of filmmaking away for a while.

But recently I got back into horror movies again. I have been watching a lot of them lately, stuff like Barbarian, Weapons, Bring Her Back and some older ones too. It reminded me why I love movies in the first place.

After that I started thinking about my own story idea.

At first it was just a small concept, but over the last few weeks I kept building it in my head. Now I basically have the whole story figured out, the characters, structure, main events, ending and everything. I just have not written it as a screenplay yet because I honestly do not really know how to properly write one.

The idea is a horror story about a young couple who moves into a cheap isolated house to start over. At first everything seems normal, but strange things start happening at night. On the first night, at around 3:13 AM, there is knocking at the front door. When they check, there is no one there. Shortly after, they hear a voice outside. The strange part is that the voice sounds familiar to them, like someone they know, but they cannot see anyone and nothing about it makes sense. It feels wrong, but also too real to ignore.

I am still working out exactly how that part fits into the bigger picture, but the idea is that there is a kind of structure at first. Something that feels almost predictable. And then over time that structure starts to break, and things become more and more unpredictable and disturbing.

I do not want to spoil too much of the story yet, but it slowly turns into something more psychological and uncomfortable. It is not just meant to be a typical haunted house story. It is more about memory, fear, and the feeling that something is off even when everything looks normal.

I also want it to include more intense and brutal moments later on, including gore, but not just for shock value. More like violence that actually means something within the story and affects the characters in a real way.

I am not really someone who writes stories often and I would not even say I am that creative compared to other people here. I just got inspired after watching a lot of horror movies recently and tried to build something myself.

Right now I am kind of stuck between two thoughts.

Part of me wants to actually try writing this as a full screenplay even if it might turn out bad.
And another part of me feels like it might just stay a cool idea because I do not really know what I am doing.

So I just wanted to ask people who are into horror or writing:

Does this kind of idea sound interesting at all?
Is it worth trying to turn something like this into a real script if you have never done it before?
Or is this usually the kind of thing that just stays as a cool idea?

Any honest opinions would be really appreciated.

Thanks for reading.

Hallo zusammen,
ich brauche dringend Hilfe.
Meine Fritzbox ist vor etwa 10 Minuten plötzlich ausgefallen. Ich wollte gerade mit einem Freund auf der PS5 zocken (das war schon den ganzen Tag geplant), aber seitdem geht überhaupt nichts mehr.
Zuerst dachte ich, es läge an den PlayStation-Servern, aber schnell war klar: Das Internet ist komplett weg.

Zur Situation mit der Fritzbox:
Wenn ich sie einstecke, blinkt die Power/DSL-LED zunächst ganz normal. Dann passiert Folgendes:

Sie blinkt kurz auf
geht für ca. 1–2 Sekunden wieder aus
blinkt dann wieder
das Ganze läuft etwa 30 Sekunden so weiter
danach ist sie ca. 10 Sekunden komplett aus
anschließend fängt sie wieder an, sehr schnell zu blinken

Zusätzlich geht dann auch die WLAN-LED an und blinkt ebenfalls schnell, allerdings leicht zeitversetzt zur Power/DSL-LED (sie blinken nicht synchron).
Normalerweise ist es bei mir so:
Power/DSL hört zuerst auf zu blinken
danach geht WLAN dazu
am Ende leuchten beide dauerhaft und alles funktioniert wieder

Aktuell stabilisiert sich aber nichts mehr.
Ich habe bereits versucht, den Support anzurufen, aber die Hotline ist zu dieser Zeit nicht mehr erreichbar.
Hat jemand eine Idee, was das sein könnte oder wie ich das wieder hinbekomme?

Hi everyone, I have a question.

I’ve been thinking about getting a Fortnite account with some older Chapter 2 skins. I was wondering if there are any websites or marketplaces that offer this at reasonable prices and are also 100% legitimate and safe from scams.

I’ve seen platforms like IGV mentioned, but I’ve also heard that they may not be very trustworthy. There are also other marketplaces such as FN Marketplace.

I’m basically trying to find out if there are any reliable and legitimate options, or if all of these types of services are generally unsafe or not recommended.

Any information or advice would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi everyone, I have a question and I was hoping someone here could help me.
Next week I have my \*\*music exam at my secondary school\*\*. We have to prepare five different topics, and during the exam we randomly choose one of them. One of the topics is dancing, and for this topic I had to choose a song and create a choreography that is \*\*1 minute and 30 seconds long\*\*.

I chose \*\*“Can’t Stop the Feeling!” by Justin Timberlake\*\*, and unfortunately I can’t change the song anymore. The problem is that I’m really not good at dancing and I’m not really a musical person either. I’ve been trying to create a choreography for a while, but I’m struggling to make the movements fit the beat of the song.

The choreography has to include these steps at least once:
Grapevine
Discofox step
V-step
A quarter turn

I don’t know if I’m allowed to add other moves, but if possible I would like to keep it simple and mostly use these steps repeatedly.
I already started a little bit: when the song starts, I thought about doing two V-steps right away, but I can never get the timing exactly right with the music.

I know this might be a lot to ask, but this grade is very important for my final school certificate, and I really don’t want to mess it up. That’s why I wanted to ask if someone who has more experience with dancing could maybe create a simple choreography for me that fits the beat of the song.

I would really appreciate any help or advice. Thank you so much! :)

Hey everyone, I have a question.

For quite a while now, I’ve been thinking about selling some of my LEGO sets because I have a very large collection. About two weeks ago, I started the process, and every day I’ve been taking apart a few sets completely.

I disassemble the sets, wash all the individual pieces (except parts with stickers and the minifigures), and then rebuild the inventory from scratch. The minifigures have always been stored properly and are already very clean, so I don’t wash those. Some of the sets had become dusty over time, which is why I decided to take them apart and clean everything thoroughly.

After cleaning the pieces, I use the instructions and sort everything back into separate bags following the original build order, from Bag 1 all the way to the last bag. While doing that, I keep track of any missing parts for each bag and then check my spare parts collection to see if I already have them. If I don’t, I order the missing pieces so that all of my sets can be sold as complete sets. I still have the minifigures for pretty much every set as well.

My question is: where is the best place to sell LEGO these days?

I don’t really want to use BrickLink because I don’t feel like setting up and managing a store there. I’m also unsure about eBay. Do people still buy expensive LEGO sets there for reasonable prices? I have quite a few rare sets and many valuable and hard-to-find minifigures, so I’m trying to figure out where I would get the best results.

Has anyone had good experiences selling on Reddit, Facebook Marketplace, or somewhere else? I feel like Facebook might bring lower prices, but I’m not sure.

I have a very large collection overall. Maybe someone here would even be interested in buying a few sets. I still have a lot of work ahead of me, though. So far I’ve only finished around 10 sets out of what is probably 200+ sets in total. It will likely take another month or so before everything is ready. I’ll keep working on them this week, taking them apart, cleaning them, sorting them into bags, and replacing any missing pieces.

So far, though, most of the sets I’ve checked have actually been complete, which has been a nice surprise.

I’d appreciate any advice from people who have sold large LEGO collections before. Thanks!

After cleaning the pieces, I use the instructions and sort everything back into separate bags following the original build order, from Bag 1 all the way to the last bag. While doing that, I keep track of any missing parts for each bag and then check my spare parts collection to see if I already have them. If I don’t, I order the missing pieces so that all of my sets can be sold as complete sets. I still have the minifigures for pretty much every set as well.

My question is: where is the best place to sell LEGO these days?

I don’t really want to use BrickLink because I don’t feel like setting up and managing a store there. I’m also unsure about eBay. Do people still buy expensive LEGO sets there for reasonable prices? I have quite a few rare sets and some valuable and hard-to-find minifigures, so I’m trying to figure out where I would get the best results.

Has anyone had good experiences selling on Reddit, Facebook Marketplace, or somewhere else? I feel like Facebook might bring lower prices, but I’m not sure.

I have a very large collection overall. Maybe someone here would even be interested in buying a few sets. I still have a lot of work ahead of me, though. So far I’ve only finished around 10 sets out of what is probably 200+ sets in total. It will likely take another month or so before everything is ready. I’ll keep working on them this week, taking them apart, cleaning them, sorting them into bags, and replacing any missing pieces.

So far, though, most of the sets I’ve checked have actually been complete, which has been a nice surprise.

I’d appreciate any advice from people who have sold large LEGO collections before. Thanks!
