I don't know if it's sad, but the unfortunate truth is that based on all the streams from the streamers I've watched, and if we apply the law of probability to the entire population that has played this game, many haven't grasped the story.
And the beauty of it is that those who didn't understand it were still moved and touched. They made their own personal interpretation.
That's art.

The story is not complicated, man
Act 3 just sucks, the ending sucks
they forgot to connect what happened in the prologue to the ending
and they failed at making the player care about the family

True. It's one of those phenomenon that occur so rarely it almost comes across as ascendant.

It's essentially a "sentience test". Like if you don't get it you really are an NPC who's just set on this Earth to elevate the people with actual personalities.

The people who hate the story of this game grew up in a broken home and don't understand the underlying themes when it comes to identity. You cant comprehend love, grief, loss, etc. when your parents dont love you and nothing is sacred.

I agree. It feels like a question of emotional intelligence and having that internal fundamental value. Like >>724062739 said it feels like an actual filter (although sentience filter might be going a little too far imo).

I would say it's also a matter of human understanding. People with deep introspection and the ability to reflect properly on their own feelings on an informational level tend to be more positive to the E33.

I've never met a brown person that has liked COE33. I hope one day I do but it seems like there's some cultural barrier or some fundamental way of thinking that makes them not fully capable of understanding the characters or the emotions they feel.
They usually bitch about the story or the plot or the personalities and so on and the arguments they raise always feel like they either weren't paying attention or like they weren't really reflecting on what was going on. I am choosing to believe it is coincidence.

>and they failed at making the player care about the family
If anything I think it's genius that the player's perspective mirrors that of Alicia's throughout the whole game.

>You start the game assume the world "is". Much like Maelle, who was born and raised in it.
>Turns out it's not. The world is effectively a highly elaborate simulation that is not feasible to stay in forever (it is literally killing your mother).
>The only member of the family you'll probably care about is conicidentally the one you spend the most time with (Verso). Mirroring how Alicia was closest to him out of all of her family.

The ending really just comes down to if you're a pragmatic or emotional person.
Destroying the painting gives the family a chance to move on from the incident. There's no guarantee, but it gives them a chance.
Staying in the painting "feels" good, but comes with a high price (Alicia will probably die and the family will sink further into dysfunction)

So why isn't the same grace offered to FF7 Rebirth and the last 2-3 hours of the game? So many people bitch because they don't get it or the story 'doesn't make sense', Nomura, etc - but it's a great game and makes you form your own interpretation of the ending. Hell, it's ambiguous for that reason, I'm sure.

But people just say it's shit.

It absolutely is, just not in the way that you think. If you think this story is deep enough to qualify as a "sentience test" then you have failed the sentience test. It's puddle deep slop that only a retarded NPC would mistake for deep.

I cared about Alicia, verso and Renoir.
At the very least, people will care about Alicia and verso and even the biggest retard gets why Renoir does what he does

which assets were from the store? Rocks? Terrain? I hear they didn't invent their own compiler or IDE to make the game either.

>fake opening story
The expedition to defeat the paintress was a real story with a beginning, middle, and end that functioned pretty much exactly as advertised. Epilogue and Act III are effectively a sequel to that story. The structure was of course heavily influenced by Automata and Signalis' unusual narrative structures. Admitting that you got filtered by them doesn't really sway the people who weren't.

>FF7 Rebirth
Has a worse story, was misrepresented and poorly presented, has infinitely worse mocap and voice acting, is a moviegame assembled from a checklist of anime tropes, leans heavily into everything that everyone hates about Ubislop, and abandoned the mechanics that Final Fantasy fans want.

COE33 was a better Final Fantasy game.

My favorite aspect is how much they choose to spoil for you, depending on you engaging with it at a more surface level to not notice it. Things like the lyrics to linen and cotton, despite being in plain english, went over everyone's head.
