I really wouldn't care honestly. Sure it was a cool filler game in the Compilation, but it wasn't needed.

I enjoyed the background of Vincent, Hojo, Lucrecia, and Grimoire more than anything. The gameplay wasn't really suiting to my style, but the plot gave it an extra kick.

yeah the plot was good in DoC but it was lacking in the game play department there was very little you could do beside jump around shooting and casting magic and using your limit after a while its just stupid and monotonous with the same repetitious levels over and over and over i mean in advent children they made Vincent seem like a kick a** motha being able to disappear from one place and appear in the other but the game let his character down he seemed to easy to kill for a guy of his stature

they could have made him more manouverable since in the fmvs he can dodge a missile that is inches from him and jump through the blast unharmed but in the game you can't do jack shit about a missile other than run for it or deflect it

lol well, SE isn't exactly know for their action/shooter games, so I never expected much >_O

The FMV's were fantastic, because that's what SE is exceptionally good at, same thing with (most of) the story line.

And yeah, that's about what Adam Sesseler(sp?) from X-play said, Vincent is 10x more badass in the FMV's than he is in the actual game, cause SE doesn't know what the fuck it's doing when it comes to this type of gameplay.

se should just stick to what they know rpgs it is what they know and what they can make successful unlike shooters which they fail at really the story was rather dull at points but the aspect of discovering more about vincents past was a highlight so the gameplay sucked but storyline as expected is awesome

Well I dont know how other people interpret it but my interpretation of levels means not that you can take more bullets in the chest (realistically a bullet in the heart will kill you regardless of how much you can benchpress) so instead the way I see it is the higher HP represents the fact that vincent can dodge bullets more and minimize the damage, so instead of taking the bullet to the chest he twists or something and gets hit in lets say the thigh. It's not really realistic to expect SE to be able to produce that kind of visuals so you gotta just imagine it. Part of roleplaying is in the imagination, in a roleplaying game if something is missing all you gotta do is juice it up yourself in your imagination and its the same thing.

*Looks around* I thought it was awsome... and i loved the gameplay.

*Waits to be beaten up*

I still love final fantasy 7, even more so now that DoC was made. I mean, everyone thinks all these spinoffs are a bad thing, but they're not... I mean, they're digging further into the background stories and giving more info on what will happen next.
