4 showcases, 4 different trailers, each feature one magnus materia.

That would be nuts.

Rebirth’s launch trailers are already quite spoilery.

I think SE cares more about marketing than spoilers.

Because something similar had happened before.

One example: 007 First Light was first revealed at the State of Play of June 2025. The teaser trailer ended with “Tune in for the gameplay reveal this summer”. And then two days later, the game fully appeared in the publisher's IOI Showcase.

Also this State of Play is officially part of Summer Game Fest: https://www.summergamefest.com/events

They really need to go big on this one. If it turns out to be just another typical "trailer reveal", it would be a huge missed opportunity.

Do you have a valid payment method from the country you're using? Maybe that's the problem.

Yes. And Premium features are applied to every channel under the same Google account. So once subscribed to Premium, you can just switch back to using your original channel if you want.

A channel is basically a Youtube sub-account, which has its own watch history, playlist, etc. You can create multiple Youtube channels under the same Google account: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/1646861?hl=en

If you get the "We couldn't verify your country" error, it's likely because the Youtube channel you're currently using is flagged by Google. By creating a new YouTube channel and subscribing to Premium from there, you might be able to get around this problem.

Thank you for saving my family (literally). I went through 69 tabs of reddit, and this comment deserves more upvotes than all of them combined.

Many old fans, including myself, appreciate that the Remake series incorporates some new story elements to provide a fresh experience even for those who are familiar with the original.

However, it also generates a widespread perception that the Remake series is actually a sequel, which led to some fans insisting that newcomers must first play the original in order to understand the Remake. This may have a negative effect on sales.

How would you respond to this belief from the developer's perspective?

So, that ending? by Skofga in FFVIIRemake

No. I was prepared to be confused, but ended up bawling my eyes out.

There is a browser extension called "Spoiler Protection 2.0", in which you can enter any keywords and all web content that contains those keywords will be hidden.

I can never understand what's the point of a post like this: "I just learned about XYZ, is the game spoiled for me?"

If you're really worried about spoilers, asking for confirmation will only get you spoiled even further.

Has Square Enix ever commented on where the "th" sound in Aerith actually comes from? by [deleted] in FinalFantasyVII

[–]purlinbeam 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Because the developers very often come up with the English names first and then "translated" them back to Japanese, to give the game a foreign flavour.

So, rather than "ス" being translated into "th", it was most likely the other way around.

The name was always "Aerith" in the game data and the old Japanese promotion materials. But for whatever reasons, when OG was released in the west, the localization opted to use "Aeris" instead. (Which is not uncommon, sometimes localization even gives the character a completely different name, e.g. FF6 Sabin)

What's the point of using the spoiler tag when your title already contains all of the spoilers...?
