In these posts, im gonna rewrite some of FFVII remake, keeping most of it but changing some intents in some scenes and general presentation. Im doing this as an excercise to improve my writing and for autistic purposes since i always wanted to be a game dev/producer or some shit but im stuck as an engineer earning 6 figures doing excel sheets.

>Chapter 1
Overall the same, except rewrite the scene of the bombing. In the vanilla version, the bomb doesnt do shit and Shinra willingly destroys its own reactor. In my version of that scene, Avalanche successfully manages to disable the reactor, but it doesnt trigger a big explosion. We see a scene of president shinra and Heidegger discussing this. President Shinra asks about the protection against bombs, heidegger says it didnt work and the president is pissed. He instructs Heidegger to destroy the reactor completely then and walks away, implying: It's a pain in the ass to fix the reactor or even unfixable and the president doesnt want avalanche to win without any casualities, so they willingly escalate things so the public reception of avalanche is destroyed. Just a fix in presentation to get the idea better.

>Chapter 2:
Overall the same but: the first sephiroth meeting. In my version of the cutscene, Cloud takes les time to walk to sephiroth, and they no longer have a conversation. Instead, Sephiroth just walks and walks away, and we get one scene of Sephiroth looking back at Cloud, with a serious/expressionless look (basically pic related, which the scene of Anakin Skywalker looking at the camera in revenge of the sith). Scene ends, sephiroth banishes and Cloud is like "wtf was that". All of this, triggered by the fire, are memories from nibelheim that we see when the sequence starts.
Second, i would remove Sephiroth appearance when you meet Aerith, completely.
Im not quite sure what to do with the whispers, specially since i dont know whats part 3 gonna do, but i dont want to "just remove them bro".
