OK, I'm totally not claiming this *means* anything, I'm just pointing out some amusing parallels I thought of when replaying through FF7:

Ancients/Nonmen (old race destroyed by virus from alien threat)

Jenova/Inchoroi (alien threat in fantasy world)

Cloud-Zack/Drusas-Seswatha (protagonist with hidden personality)

Sephiroth/Kellhus (villain is engineered super powerful warrior/mage that goes insane)

Meteor Summoning / Revival of the No-God (world-ending threat brought about by villain)


How about it!
Any fool can see the limits of seeing, but not even the wisest know the limits of knowing. Thus is ignorance rendered invisible, and are all Men made fools.

Lol, FF7 was another game that really impacted my life. Along with Chrono Trigger :D.

I didn't have a playstation, so everything for me was FFIII and before that Chrono Trigger, which remains my favorite video game I've ever played.
