Since then, nothing like it has captured the public imagination in quite the same way. Inside lay the boy king, untouched for more than 3,000 years, his face covered by a fabulous golden mask. It was a moment of archaeological history. Carter and Lord Carnavon entered the tomb's interior chambers in November 1922, but opened the door to the last chamber only the following February, on the 16th. It was 100 years ago this week that the pair were alerted to the tomb by a 12-year-old, who stumbled upon it. Strangely enough, it is not something you find in FF8-9 -10, most of them have some coherence in their world building in all those dimension.Īnyway, i hope that FF7 2 will give more depth to all those aspect to solidify the background world.“Can you see anything?” Lord Carnarvon asked Howard Carter as he peered through a crack in the tomb, illuminated only by the light of a single candle. Everything is just here because it has to be here. I know this kind of detail can be 'silly', but that also those detail who help to make a world 'believable'Įven if in remake we see more machine and stuff, there is still no infos on how they build them, with what material and so on. (Same question for DEEPGROUND!)Ĭonclusion : Shinra has one helicopter, one Highwind they lose later, one submarine, and one cargo ship. Such a weird reason, i found more believable that you have some facility war factory to build them. In dirge of Cerberus (game that i really like) we see Cid leading a whole fleet of Highwind, game tells you it come from ancient civilisation. How does economic work? No country, mean no trades, Midgar is a city standing alone far from everything else, yet is build up like Las Vegas, and run by its own we dont know how. They have no ship, no aircraft, how does Shinra was able to projection its strike forces from this far? Only Helicopter? Midgar made war to Wutai, Wutai is far.

Midgar is a big city with alot of people, but how can they be fed? We see only one farm, which run chocobos, so no grain or first mats of food. (Yeah we see one truck on the poor road desert in end of Yuffie DLC) There is no highway or proper road out of midgar, which make the question : how do people travel between cities or village. There is one Highwind, but we dont know from where it comes, only it own to Cid. They have no aircraft goods transport line, or civilian aircraft, they go to see Cid to flightjak his Tony Bronco. (could expect some ferry or something like that), no warship either. They have only one rotten cargo to go on the other continent with the President. Seeing the Shinra corporation building and its own city, Midgar, it comes to mind : this company has alot of tools and fund to do what they do.īut if i sum up Shinra tools from a logistic perspective : Why SOLDIER use big sword, why no country? Why do you have technologies? (Its says that the discovering of Mako provided technology progression, but it sounds to be just too few of a reason)įF7 world seems to have been build to only tale a single story, nothing befor nothing after. I also agree that some stuff can be 'off screen' from the main plot, however the game never gives a real explanation on why the things are. No goverment, no country then no army, that why Shinra has its own army.

You have Shinra and that all, some people living by themselve all around the world. To begin : there is no governement, or something close to it. This topic is not a criticism, just an observation of what I found woobly in the world building. As far as I remember there is 3 cities, Junon, Midgar, and Wutai, rest being little village or the Gold Saucer. I always been a fan of FF7 and Its story, however some stuff that I recall, are haunting my mind now.įF7 World is really weirdly build, that the least i can say.
