and cutscene direction in general is 10/10

FF7 fans will defend this scene with "FF7 has always been quirky and weird" but that's just complete fucking bullshit in this scene. It's the most tone deaf scene in any Final Fantasy game. The Dyne scene in Rebirth is among my top 3 worst scenes in the entire franchise

i was truly looking forward to that whole sequence too

it did still get me in my feels as a father of a daughter about marlenes age

but it didn't land the way i wanted it to

It got almost everything right

mhm

I still think him dying in a hail of bullets is a lame censorship choice

idk why Palmer gets even so much screentime. he's a meme character with the only purpose in the story to get driven over by a truck

Can't think of a better word but I think my point is getting across

But yeah even then right up until Barret screams it does it well

It doesn't even stop at Palmer

Immediately after that fight Dio comes in flexing his muscles

And then you have that awful minigame with Barret

[i]And then[/i] do you have some cooldown moment for Barret

Palmer is coincidentally also the worst written character out of all the Shinra characters. I'd consider President Shinra, Rufus, Heidegger, Scarlet and Reeve all to be better in the Remake than the og

he was better when he had less screentime

speaking of barret and scenes done well, i recently watched my partner play through Remake for the first time a few weeks ago and i still think the scene where barret [spoiler]mourns the sector 7 plate fall|| is one of the [i]best[/i] scenes theyve done. nothing over the top, extremely fitting music, a man ||screaming for all his loved ones[/spoiler](and the VA did phenomenal)

I think Palmer is hilarious so I don't mind the screentime

But that was the worst moment to put him in

This is what I was hoping for with Dyne

same

Just this sad meltdown that takes its time to just let it sit

Like it takes like a solid 15 minutes or something before you go and do side stuff or just anything else
