OK, I've reached the entire of Disc 1, so this update has a lot of ground to cover - a bunch of meandering sandwiched between two spates of actual things happening. From which I'm grateful, since as I started this stretch, I couldn't help but realize that I had played FIFTEEN HOURS of this game and there was STILL no plot.
Amen, Barret.
I just read FF7 Remake spoilers, and I learned of The Thing. OH, MAN. The original and I are not exactly hitting it off, but I have deep sympathy for the FF7 fans out there expecting this game to sink the two-inch tee shot it had lined up and fulfill a long-held community dream.
This, after experiencing two of the game's allegedly most moving moments. I'm sorry. Well, not really.
Also, best friends named "Dyne" are always a problem.

I'm up to Costa del Sol, and I wasn't planning on reporting back in so soon (ten hours in, about three hours past my previous report), but the story has taken a dive, and I have TRUTH that must be unleashed.
